A. Jehle, N. C. Extension Patholo gist. Potatoes, be says, may ap pear perfectly healthy, and yet may carry plant disease germs ' which may injure the young po- ; tatoes or tops later in the season. ; Bruised and very scabby pota toes should not be planted, and ; sweet potatoes showing black rot 1 and foot rol should be discarded. : Irish potatoes only slightly affect- , ed by scab can be safely planted , after treating with corrosive snb- , li mate or formaldehyde... If black j scurf is present, which may be recognized by small black bodies 1 clinging to the sort Ace, they can planted only after treat- 1 lfig with corrosive sublimate. Much scurf has been found by the Extension Pathologist on nncerti-* tied seed from Maine, aud if such seed are not treated injury to tops or decreased germination may result. Corrosive Sublimate Taeatmvnt, Soak tho potatoes in a corrosive sublimate solution of the follow ntrength: Powdered corroulve sub limate 4 ounces, water 30 gallons, or corrosive sublimate tablets 8, water 1 gallon. If the powder is used, dissolve it in a small quan tity of water, then add the re qnired amount of cold water. The tablets dissolve readily in cold water. The corrosive sublimate solution becomes weakened each time it is used, therefore one ounce of corrosive sublimate, or 00 tablets, should be added to every 30 gallons of solution every timo a batch of potatoes is treat ed, and enough water should be added to bring the solution up to Its original volume. When this has been done fonr times, use the solution twice more, then throw It away and prepare a new one. Corrosive sublimate corrodes metals, so containers of wood, enamol or cement must bo used. It Is not injurious to the hands, but it is a deadly poison when taken iuternally. Potatoes treat ed in it are unfit for food. Irish potatoes ihould be soaked oue-half hour in this solution, nnd sweet potatoes ten minutes. Tho solution need not be washed ofT the tubers after treatment, formaldehyde Treatment. The potatoes may bo treated iu formaldehyde instead of corrosive sublimate. This treatineut is much cheaper, but it is not so generally effective. The streugth to use is 1 pint of formaldehyde to 30 gallons water. This solu tion does not lose, strength and can be used until exhausted. It does not corrode metals aud is not a deadly poison. Potatoes treat od in it may be baked or,boiled and eaten with perfect safety. Irish potatoes should be soaked one-haW hour in this solution, aud sweet potatoes five minutes. Tho solution need not bo washed off the tubers after treatment. Success With Sweef Potatoes 'lMiis is the first of a serif sof .articles on sweet potatoes prepared fur TUB (Ji.kanek by the Division of Horticulture, Agricultural Ex tension Service at Kaleigh. Other articles will deal with bedding, planting, cultivating, harvesting, storage and marketing of this im portant North Carolina crop. I. Varieties and Hred Treatment. For main crops aud storage, Porto Kico, Nancy llall aud Nor ton (Dooley) Yam are recommend ed. These varieties are moist fleshed, of excellent quality and 'yield well. For early crop, the Triumph is a medium-moist, itood yielding variety of fair quality. Where a dry type of sweet potato is*pre ferred, the Big Stem Jersey is recommended. Fieltl Selected seel from highest yielding hills that are disease-free, give the best results. Reject and destroy all potatoes bearing rot ten spots of any kiud. Cut aud bruised potatoes should not be bedded. Cut off the ends of ap parently sou ml jHitatoes, occa sionally, to mitko sure that tho { inside Is not blackened with dis ease. Weed Treatment. The sound disease-free potatoes , should bo disinfected by either oue of two methods. With corrosive sublimate; Dis- 1 solve one ounce of corrosive sub 1 limate Iu warm water, then add 1 eight gallons of water. Immerse the seed potatoes in this solution for 10 minutes; spread out, dry and bed. Make a sufficient quantity of the solution (1 os to 8 gallons) to treat all the i>otatoe« to be bedded. After treating 10 bushels in 50 gallons of disinfect ant, one-half ounce of corrosive sublimate should be added and the water brought up to 60 gal lons. Use this solution in wooden vessels only. Corrosive sublimate is poisonous; keep it out of reach of livestock. With formaldehyde: Immerse potatoes for 5 minutes iu a solu- tion of formaldehyde, one pint (commercial 40 per cent) in 3l) gallons of water. Dry and bed. i There seems to be an ominpus prophecy in the statement that Wood is the most popular Kepub- lican candidate in the Dead wood section of South Dakota. i According to Will llays, the G.

Cor. of The Cleaner., Chapel Hill, N. C., March 28.1 —lnvitations, accompanied by a request to send a delegate, to the inauguration of, Harry Wood burn Chase as President of tho of the University of North Caro lina on April 28, have been mailed this week to 204 colleges and universities, 57 learned so cieties, 14 professional'schools, and 5 educational boards. Per sonal invitations will be sent out later. The inauguration of President Graham in 1915 was notable for the large number of distinguish ed scholars and university men who were present to extend greetings to the University and the now president. At Presi dent Chase's inauguration it is planned to have even a larger number and the inaugural com mittee is making unusual ef-~ forts to receive and entertain them. All tho more important edu cational institutions in the coun try are included on the list. The learned societies include such groups as the American Bar Association, the 4 American Chemical Society, the American Economic Association, the American Institute of Mining Engineers, the National Geo graphic Society, the Modern Language Association, the American Forestry Association, and others. Thirty-two of these societies and associations minted delegates in 1915. Greetings from these dele gates will form a part of the i program at the banquet to bo given by tho University after the inauguration exercises have been completed. President Ch&n's inauguration address will J>e tho most important fea ture "of the exercises proper, but there will also bo addresses by President Hibbon of Princeton, • Dean Charles It.

They are oj>en to men who have a bache lor's degree from a standard 00l- I lege or university and they are available in the departments of l Botany, Euglish, Chemistry, I Geology, History aud Govern i ment,, Mathematics, and Ro mance languages. Through these fellowships a man sjiends part of his time in instruction, but opportunity is also offered for a large amount of tiinp in graduate study. The plan is tho beginning of others now iu preparation for the de , velopraent of the graduate school. Application for these fellowships, Dean Greenlaw said, must l»o tiled by April 30.

Long weeks pent up indoors, too little exercise and fresh air, winter sick ness not entirely 'over with, h generally lowered vitality. Blood weak and sluggish. Then come fine Spring days—that are not as warm as they feeui; or sodden changes in the weather, and you haven't taken proper precautions. Vigorous, red-blooded people don't x>ften get sick. If ~ you're not feeling your best, get l'epto- Mangan of your druggist and take it to bnild up your blood. \ This effective and agreeable tonic has been tested for over thirty years, and physicians, everywhere, recommend it for run-dowu, pale, and enemic people. The whole family should take Pepto-Uangan—it is good health insurance. Besides, what a joy it is to feel fit and fine—ready for anything! To have an abundance of energy and enthusiasm! Pepto-Mangan is for sale at your druggist's, aud in both liquid and tablet form. There is no differ ence in medicinal value. Take whichever you prefer. But to make sure you get the genuine, ask for "Dude's Pepto-Mangan" and see that the name "Gude's" is on the package. adv 18,359 schools, are now closed because of a shortage in teachers.

' . ■ | NEW FORM OF IRON RELIEVES STOMACH TROUBLES. Eat What You Like—Stop Suffering From Acid Stomach-r-Gas, Pains and Other Forms of In digestion—Results Almost Immediately For years physicians have been searching for a form OF iron that could be combined with certain other in gredients like pepsin, etc., for use in treating chronic disorders of the di gestive tract, mal-assimilation etc., etc. _ This is sufficient evidence that medicine recognizes the great value of iron for stomach troubles when administered in proper form. If you have been disappointed with lack of results from pills and tonics said to contain iron you can now un derstand that the iron was not pre sented in a form that could be absorbed by the stomach into the system. And therefore could not possibly bring you benefit. This new form of iron is not pre pared by chemists—it is found in Na ture itself combined with highly beneficial medicinal agents. It is quickly absorbed by the system and in sufficient measure to bring results by All Good Druggists. Bilrwell & Dunn andJohnM. Scott &Co., Charlotte, N. C., Distributors. BIDS WANTED!
