Edward Green, who died at Gala
tin, Tenn, last week, claimed to be one
hundred and six years old. The surviv-

to have been one hundred and twelve or
one hundred and fourteen years of age.
He was native of North Carolina, and
came to Tennessee when young man,
stopping at Nashville, which was then a
military post. He assisted in building
one of the first houses erected in Nash
vile. Only last year he Was able to
work in his garden.

A Substitute for Potatoes.

When the potato rot of 1915 threat
ened the determination of the potato, q
general search was made for some edible
tuber or root that would serve as sub
stitute, and among those proposed was
the Chinese yam, which had long been
cultivated in China and Japan. 1t forms
= long, ciub-shaped root, two feet or
more long, and largest at the lower end.
The vines run from ten to twenty feet in
length, and have rich, dark-green,
heart-shaped leaves, in the axis of
which are produced bulblets smaller
than an ordinary pea, from which, or
from cuttings of the upper portion of
the root, the plant is prOpagated. The
root is remarkably white within, rather
mucilaginous, and when cooked is much
esteemed by many, but, lacking the dry.
starchy character of the potato, not
likely to be generally popular. It is
boiled, roasted, or fried. The great
obstacle to its general cultivation is the
difficulty of taking the crop, the depths
to which the roots 90 perpendicularly
downward making the digging of them
very expensive. Their shape, being
largest below, renders it impossible to
pull them, and their extreme brittleness
makes it exceedingly difficult to extract
them without breaking. The plant is
perfectly hardy, and the roots remain in
the ground during the severest winters
without injury. Its cultivation is now
confined to amateurs who are willing to
be at the trouble of digging the roots,
and it is sometimes grown as an orna-
mental vine.

The editor of New York agricul-
tural paper lately received letter from
a Wisconsin man, saying: I" I have a
mule which became lame in one hind
leg some three weeks ago. 1t seems to
pain him very much. What is the mat
ter and remedy?" The New York
Times says that the editor has diaboli-
cally replied as follows: ssTo find the
seat of the trouble, sponge the leg with
cold water, apply cold water frequently;
and keep wet bandages around the joint.
Rest" adds the wicked editor, with cold
and brutal sarcasm, evil be necess-
ry." To which the Times adds:
Sc There is not the slightest doubt that if
Mr.. Brown undertakes to sponge his
mules leg with cold water, and to keep
wet bandages around the joint, he will
find rest necessary and inevitable"
