Reasonable Advice ~ TO Digging ~sa
Rea ping the Tnhera.


One can easily select a time when the
soil is in the right condition to fall right
away from the potatoes when turned up
either with the pillow. potato digger or
fork. By having dean crop in this
way the labor of harvesting is greatly
lessened. Potatoes should not be
washed. as rule. Yet they must II

them. A dirty crop of potatoes wiz
not keep well.
Sometimes. however, potatoes viii get
muddy from necessity. and then some
place 20 keep them while they are
washed should be provided II Is not
such an easy job 10 wash potatoes, for
the mud is only loosened and not
washed off by throwing water over
them. II they are piled up in n heap
and then washed with hose for some
time. the tops viii be as clean as q
whistle, but down toward the bottom
the mud has accumulated
The easiest way 10 wash them is 20
make a temporary lattice work on the
top of four barrels Lay bean poles
across the four rails, so close that the
potatoes cannot slide through On top
OF this place one bushel Of potatoes at q
time, and then turn the hose on them.
The water and dirt viii drip through
the lattice work 10 the ground and
leave the potatoes bright and clean. As
fast as cleaned the potatoes should be
spread out on a canvas or boards 70 dry
before storing. They will dry 10 a very
short time in harvesting seasons They
must not be stored away In a damp.
cold place while wet or the rot will
surely set in.
a good drying and storing place for
potatoes should be provided beforehand
in the barn. A lattice floor should be
made somewhere on the north side OF
the barn, and either stretched from
NOW 20 NOW or constructed on a cheap
framework. The floor can be made OF
bean poles or cheap scantling. The
spaces between the Stats should only be
about an inch. IL such storage place
is provided the potatoes can be placed
there even when they arc wet. for the
dry air circulating through them soon
carries away the moisture All through
the rest Of the summer and the early
fall the potatoes can be kept In this
cool place in the best Of condition. II

San Francisco. The doctor prescribed
heroic treatment. but the senator was
not ready to undergo drastic methods
for the reduction of flesh and the resto-
ration OF his waning strength. His
Apoplectic Symptoms Increased
and his situation became such as to
create serious alarm. About SIX weeks
ago it was found necessary to impose a
severely plain diet upon the senator and
since that time his sole food has con-
sisted OF fresh hashed meat. with hot
water the only liquid accompaniment.
The senator rigidly adhered to the Sc
we're requirements of the physician, and
1t seemed for a time that its results
were most beneficial and might pos
sibly effect permanent cure.
The senator expressed himself az
much encouraged and looked for
ward hopefully to the time when he
could devote himself with renewed
energy to public affairs and to the COM
pletion of certain educational and other
benevolent enterprises that were very
near to his heart, but his strength was
not yet sufficiently great to respond to
the demands upon it. Its fundamental
weakness suddenly manifested itself,
and he passed quietly away.

DULUTH. June 22-It is feared that
the loss of life in the Bunnell block fire
may reach an appalling figure. Four
bodies have already been recovered and
1t is considered certain that at least
three more are still in the ruins. The
building was an old three-story wooden
structure at the corner of Lake avenue
and Michigan street. 1t was occupied
by roomers, many OF whom were not
awakened until escape by the stairway
was cut off.
Heroic Efforts Were Made
by the fire,nen to arouse and rescue the
sleeping inmates, but the flames spread
with such rapidity that they could not
all be gotten from the building. When
the fire department arrived at the scene
they found frantic and half-crazsd
women and children endeavoring to es-
cape from the front entrance. But es-
cape in this direction was impossible
for the door had been completely
blocked by someone throwing q huge

exit. One young woman was seen TO
appear at one of the upper windows
and cry for help. A ladder was hoisted,
but before she could be reached the un-
fortunate woman uttered a piercing
shrek and fell back into the roaring
flames. The building collapsed when
least expected, and surrounded as they
were with the live electric light wires,
the work for the fremen was unusually
dangerous. Fireman Lieutenant
Madden was quite severely injured.
