THE POTATO ROT.
!ts Cause and Cure--Mr. Hen
. derson's Discoveries.
From the Buffalo Comriercial, .hive 29
Ever since the disease known as pota
to rot first appeared, various hypotheses!
have been offered as to its cause and cure.'
A malady attacking an esculent so im,
portant and forming so large a portion of
Par daily food, was at once recognized as
a national disaster, and researches of sci
putifie men were directed to its study.—
lip to the present time -no satisfactory.
theory has been promulgated. In giving
Oblicity to that which we are now about
to notice, wCi'sliall confine ourselves most
ly to what
and
been done by actthal.cX
periment, and to the legitimate conclu
sions 'which inductive reasoning froth
those experiments affords. Our personal
knowledge is confined to the following
facts :
* i
Qn the 'morning of the 24th of June,
Mr. Alexander Henderson of this city,
left at our office a glas's jar, containing a
sound and healthy potato plant. covered
in by a perforated paper so as to ,afford
sir. He had placed it there at 7a. m.,1
and with it were cenfined some six oil
sight insects, which Mr. H. believes to
p© the source of the potato rot. The in-'
sect itself we. cannot, describe scientific
ally. It iv tilsout . half the size of the
common halve-oy, of a brownish color, has
six legs, two pairs of light wings; two an
lennm, and a long, strong proboscis: Mr.
i. thinks it is the l?hytoeoris, hutris not
positive as to that. At the end of twen
ty-foils bones the plant was evidently dis
pssetl, The insect was actively engaged
upon its various portions, which became
}gown and mouldy in the leal while the
Oasts, in thp couise of two oAhree days,
tuffered a putmcent change, until, on
the 2Stii, some of them fell over by their
pwu weight, the stalk being swollen and
coillin.4y4 in stone places quite, to a jelly
of a fsiclily green . :

asit !attacks- the vines.) • .Some . pieces ti
early; (this years) potatoes; placed in the
jar
%Fere .attacked by the.rot!
during the four days of cxposure.•
Mit. Elendersm'states that he has been
engaged in this.researelisinee 1845 ;"that
in .1850 he ,discovered the In_ on the .
viper, but (thought it .was confined to
IDttring the last 'year he haS found
it on the tubers; - and watched. its effects
- t.
upon them. It 'appears 9n 'the vines . in
from' two and a 'half to tliqge, in( ! uOis urter
pliniting, according to soil and . mantire
richly manured soil producing the perfect •
insect sooner.
'l'he natural history of the insect begins
with. the development of the egg. This
is invisible• to the naked eye, but can be
seen With the . aid diens agglutinated to
the : . skin of the potatO. ISOf an oblong'
furiii and is planted, with the seed potato.
Thdegg may be hatched iu a warm, moist
place. The eutre.period of development
is not settled. - Mr. H. expOsed.a plant to
theinsect, under proper precautions, and
front the time of tfie exposure 'to the time
theyoung insect of the next generation
obtained his wings was three months.
The process of reproduction has been in
geniously watched by Mr. Henderson.
The egg planted with the seed potato is
hatched, and the: young insect stays in the
ground until he gets wings. In the mean
time he is engaged in stinging the tubers,'
each perforation poisoning the root and
begetting the rot. While yet in the
ground, and as early as the tenth day of
existence, the young insects cohabit, and
from the great rapidity with which they
propagate; Mr, Ih. argues that the egg is
deposited before the first emergence from
the ground, althougk in case of cold, wet
weather, the insect sometimes leaves the
vines and returns to the tuber. Only a
few days arc required for the entire des
truetion of the vine. The insect is re
markably industrious, but the desttuctiun
of the vines does not affect the tuber ex.-
cept,to stop its growth.
Mr. Henderson finds a ready explana-1
tion for the greater healthfulness of the
potato' in sandy soil. , He finds that the
grains . : of sand greatly annoy And cripple
the insect,' and as the light soil is heaved
up by', the growth of the root, the sand
imparts or fulls down, preventiog the ac-1
cess of the fly. In a stiff soil the insect
readily leaves the ground through thel
crackti opened by the growth of the tuber,
and having stung it, conies to the surface;
and attacks the vine, espeoially 'after heiiey
showets. - During the past Winter . Mr.l
Henderson has had thousands of the young ;
insects hatched under glass, and to try
their }tower of mischief, has experimented
with hugs only a quarter grown. The
plant exposed showed nu mistabahle signs
of diSease on the fourth clay.
These statements we regard as impor
tant. j 'So much i 3 evident., . Mr. Hender
son, by means of this insect, produces po
tato tot at will. ' When a healthy plant is
shown us, the insect applied, and the rot
folluWs in four days with unerring certain
ty, there is good reason to suppose that
the p'roblemhas been . solved.
Asi to cure, Mr. HeLderson thinks there
is no iserious difficulty. If we put a stop
to the planting of the egg with the seed
notate, we stop the propagation of the in.
sect. The egg being invisible, any means
applied should hi thorough, and reaoh
the whole surface Of the rout. Mr. Hen
derson states that by spainklin,g quick
lime over the potato as it is cut fur plant
ing, the moisture will dissolve the lime
and bathe the tubers in a caustic alkali
which will destaoy the egg. At this time
of the year the ravages of the insect may
be prevented by packing the earth around
the tuber firmly with the foot, which will
smother the insect. We may add that it
is probably the same insect which has re
cently attacked the grape-vines.
Sipee writing the above, we have fotind
one of the inscetsin our jar, which had
deserted the now rotten vines, at work un
derground upon a sound young potato.

that we should• kelp the various pa sages of

to us that we have it in our poWer to put - a
medicine in your reach,' namely. N rse's In

and roots which grow around the ountnin

to the kidneys ; thus
. eneourageti, -they' draw
large amounts of' impurity from the blodd,
Which is then thrown out bountifully by the
urinary or water passage,
'and which contd .
not have been discharged in any other way.
The fourth is a Cathartic; and accompanies
1 the other properties of the Pills while engaged
in purifying the blood ; the coarser particles
I of impurity which cannot pass by the other
;butlets, are thus taken up and conveyed off in
great quantities by the bowels.
.-
From the above, it is shown that Dr. Morse's
I Indian Root Pills not orb' enter the stomach,
but become united with the blood, for they
find way to every_part, and completely rout Out
land cleanse the system from all impurity, and
the life of the body, which is the blood, be-
I comes perfectly healthy; consequently all i
sickness and pain is driven from the system,
! for they cannot remain when the body becomes
so pure and clear.
The reason why People are so
_distressed i
when'. sick, and why so many die, is - . because
1 they fio not get a medicihe which will pass
to the afflicted parts, and which will open the
1 natural passages for the disease to be cast out;
hence, a large quantity' of food and other mat-
; ter is lodged, and the stomach and_ intestines
are literally overflowing with the corrupted
mass - ;. thus uadergoing, disagreeable fermen
tation, constantly mixing with the blood,which
throws corrupted matter through every vein
and artery, until life is taken from the body
by disease. Dr. Morse's PILLS have added to
themselves victory upon victory, by restoring
millions of the sick to bldoming 'health and
happiness. Yes, thousands who have been
nicked or tormented with sickness, pain and
anguish, and whose fe'eble frames have been
scorched by the burning elements of raging
fever, and who have been brought, as it were,
' 1 within a step of the silent grave, now stand
I ready to testify that they would have been
numbered with the dead, had it not been for
this great and wonderful . medicine, Morse's
Indian Root Pills. - After one or two doses had
been taken, they were , astonished, and nbso.
lately surprised, in witnessing their.charming
effects. Not only do they giro immediate ease
and strength, .and take away all sickness,
pain and anguish, but they at once go to
work at the foundation of the disease,
which is the hfotd. Therefore, it will be
shown. especially by those who use these Pills,
that they will so cleanse and purify, that dis
easethat deadly enemy—will take its flight,
and the flush of youth and . beauty Will again
return, and the prospect of a long and happy
life will cherish and brighten your days.
