1t is claimed by some good authou-
ties, Prof. Green, Of the Minnesota
Experiment station, among the num-
Der, that our much used potato is bad
" run out" The fact that for a
number of years potatoes have been
generally scarcer and higher in price
the country over, is attributed to this
cause. Here and there you find po-
tatoes as good as those commonly
in the market ten years ago, but this
is the exception, the general rule be-
ing that they are becoming more in
ferior, both in yield and quality, year
by year. 1t seems that it takes but a
few years for any given variety to
wear itself out upon our soil. There
is something in the climate or soil, or
both, that is inimical to long life.
Even when the best varieties are Sc
cured and planted they seem to retro
grade in the same general way. The
only remedy suggested is the impor-
tation of new varieties. The seed
from which the first Early Rose pota-
toes in this country were grown was
imported from Chill about thirtyfve
years ago. All know the great place
in potatodom held by this variety,
and regret its present decline. 1t
would seem that it is now time for
some farmer or gardner to send to
Chill again, or to some other country
differing radically from our own in
soil aud climate, for more potatoes to
take the place of the degenerated va
rieties now being grown. Experience
teaches that potato growers cannot
make too great or too frequent
changes in the matter of seed.

One of Mrs. Van Kortlandts daugh-
tiers, to the horror of her mamma, an
nounced that she would rather use a
typewriting machine than eat; and,
what is more, she bought one and
alone taught herself the use OF the
KEYS. She now does all her own
correspondence on the typewriter,
even sending letters to her tianoe and
regrets to invitations in this sternly
husiness-like form. The former may
look indulgently upon this eccentrlcl-
ty; but probably one OF her three
hundred and ninety-nine friends will
rebuke her sharply for this gross Vlo-
lation of etiquette by forgetting to in
vito her to her next grand function.
She longs to put her skill, which re-
ally is great, to some practical USE
but has promised her mother not to
do so unless financial crash of the
Van Kortlandt fortunes necessitates
the change.-From Society Fads,'

EXCHANGE NOTES AND COMMITS

Ortonville Herald-Star: Two at
tempts were made last week to steal
Charley Thorndike's fancy horse.
The first effort was made during the
night Of Thursday last, but the noise
awakened the family and the thieves
decamped, leaving the cart in the a.
ley and tho harness on the floor of the
stable. The second attempt was
Saturday night while no one was at
home but Mrs. Thorndike, who, hear
ing noise in the barn, started out to
investigate, but was met near the door
by one of the thieves, and when she
tempted to pass the ruifan knocked
her down and gave her brutal kick
in the face, breaking tooth and
drawing blood. The lady gave a Wig
orous alarm, but by the time assist
ance had arrived the rascals had fed,
and no trace of they could be found.
Prison Mirror: The farmers in the
northwest evidently want money. OF
the 100000 bushels of wheat avail
able for sale, 100000 have already
moved from first hands at prices SO
low that it would hardly seem to pay
to grow it. But the debts had to be
paid and new credits obtained in ey-
cry direction, and the wheat had to
go. 1t is this terrible bearing of the
cash market which keeps prices down
in the face of a general improvement
in business. Some one will make
money out of the deal even if the far
mer's hide has to go for sole leather.
Benson Times: Editor Roberts, of
the Swift County Standard. has been
looking over the field at Appleton
with view of moving his paper over
there.
Glenwood Herald: Married, at the
home of the groom, Mr.. Tory Thorson
and Miss Mary Guam, of Barsness,
F. NJ. Eddy officiating. The marriage
took place on Friday, November Sd,
1898. The announcement of Judge
Thorson being married created quite
surprise to his numerous friends
throughout the county.
Anoka Union: The farmers of this
county are raking in the clean cash
| from AZ to 48 cents bushel for
potatoes that yield from rs to 225
bushels per acre. If the soil cultiva-
tors of Anoka county plant potatoes
every year as they have done in the
past five, they will be the wealthiest
| farmers in the northwest inside of a
decade.
Glenwood Herald: We are in
formed while in Sank Centre the 9TH
er day that young lady examining
and pricing some hosiery in certain
dry goods store recently, finding a
pair that she liked, asked the clerk
"How high do these come" The
clerk, who was new at the business
and was in on trial, replied; "Why, I
don't know exactly but think about
two inches above the knee. You may
step into the back room and try them
on if you like" The clerk was dis
charged.

The establishment of postal savings
banks in this country was strongly
recommended through all of the last
administration, and is advocated by
many of tho best minds in the coun-
try. We expected to find some ex-
preston upon this subject in the re-
port recently made by the postoffice
department at Washington, but have
| met with disappointment. There is
no word concerning savings banks,
either in advocacy or condemnation.
Whether there is any better reason
for the omission than the partisan one
of ignoring In this administration
whatever was prominent in the last,
we can not tell, but we believe the
question will not down, now that an
agitation is begun, because of a mere
" negative attitude on the part of the
authorities that be. The demand for
an absolutely safe place in which the
wage earners can deposit their savings
is conceded, and it can be furnished
in no other way SO well as by a judi
cious system of postal savings banks.
That there is a demand for these
banks that people use them when
they can, is proven by the success of
the system in Great Britain. Since
its establishment there in 1861, to
1890, there were 100000 deposits
and 39,000,066 Withdrawals, represent
ing 81, 387, $4,000 and $1,l49,82OOQO
respectively. Over 100000 accounts
have been opened and 100000
closed, there being at the end of 1880
about 100000 depositors, having to |
their credit 1926, 100000. There were
in 1890, when the last official report |
was made, ten thousand Offices in
the United Kingdom open for the re-
ceipt of savings. In 1896 the cost
was 81 ,589, 538, making the average
cost per transaction, that is, with
drawal and deposit, 13s cents. After
of expenses and 8 per cent.
interest to depositors, there has al
ways been a surplus, averaging $780,
300 year since 1876.
When these postal savings banks
are established in this country, and
hey are sure to be in time, we are
certain they will prove as valuable
and as popular as they now are in
Great Britain.
