mate (1 to 1.000 of water). Clean the tool often 
with carbolic acid, or you will spread the blight 
with each cut.

plants close together, or plant the seed thickly In 
the rows. Give best of care, shade and plenty of 
water. Tou will probably lessen the blight.

formalin (1 lb. to 30 gallons of water), then cut 
the plant. Do not plant in soil where scabby po- 
tatoes were grown.
