Advance i'm Potatoes.

Owing to the long drought, sharp
advance took place in potatoes last
week, the wholesale rate in New York
city going to 1915 barrel, nearly
double the price-S1.5 .5O-at which
the "first diggings" started, the last
week in July. This will bring the
retail price to s3 or $3.50, and where
sold in small quantities. to 81 or even
50 per barrel. Leading dealers pre-
diet an increase of 80 to - cents be-
tween now and October, when the late
crop is placed on the market, followed
by the usual decline Of S1.75 to $3.50
per barrel. Experts IN potato culture
estimate that If the entire crop now
growing throughout the country were
ready for digging, the yield would he
so to 35 per cent. less than an average
crop grown under usual conditions.
The Department reports at Washington
showed a depreciation Of Is per cent.
in July alone-one of the greatest ever

The Work of 10 Devil.

A vandal of the meanest type has
once more left the impress of his cussed-
ness on the building belonging to DIR.
Aydelotte and occupied As store by
\. Goodman, the clothier. On Tues
day night, with a penkniie, this repre-
sentative OF his Satanic majesty de-
liberately cut great notches in the sash
work of the front door. There is no
doubt but what the act was perpetrated
for the purpose OF annoying the mer-
chant and not an attempt to get in the
building as was reported, Tor it would
he comparatively easy matter to have
removed the large pain of glass set in
the door instead of hacking away the
sash. We trust the rascal will be
caught ard given the full penalty of
the law for such an offence.
