be marketed or to be slowed away
for home use. The small, unmer-
charitable potatoes are more valu-
able to cook and feed to poultry or
to young pigs than for any other
purpose, and the best time to pick
them out, so as to have them by
themselves, is when the potatoes
are dug.
If they are to be marketed the
small potatoes detract more from
the value of the good tubers than
they will sell for.
Potatoes should be spread out
and allowed to dry or cure out three
or four days before being stored
away for long keeping. In handling,
it is quite an item not to brnise or
injure them in any way, sthis ma
terially increases the liza utility to rot.
So far as can be done, potatoes
intended for long keeping should be
stored in "a dark, cool place. A cool
even temperature supplies the best
conditions. For this reason, il
proper care is taken to provide good
drainage and to cover deep enough
to be safe from frost, storing in pits
will be found one of the best if not
the best way of storing.
If stored in a cellar put them in
boxes or bins arranged so that they
are far enough away from the wall
and high enough from the floor to
permit good circulation of air all
around them. Then if kept dark
and secure from frost they may
easily be kept in good condition.

Harvesting Potatoes.

So far as other conditions will
admit, it is always best to dig po-
tatoes on cloudy day, as potatoes
lying out exposed to the sun, even
for a short time, are injured very
rapidly. But they ought not to be
dug when the soil is wet, on account
OF the dirt sticking to them. Where
digger is used the work can be
done readily and economically, but
when done by hand it is tiresome,
laborious task, whether done with a
hoe or fork.
When they are picked up is the
best time to sort, as at that time
the work can be done more readily
and with less labor than at any
other time 1t is always best to
sort potatoes, whether they are to

1t is probable that prices of beef
will be higher the coming Winter,
and if so, there should he IA profit
in cattle. 1t may be that refriger-
ator beef will be an obstacle in the
way, but the usurpation of the
market by such beef has been due
to inferior cattle and the difficulty
of getting constant supply OF
choice beef in the east compared
with that sent ready dressed from
the west When eastern farmers
become prepared to supply cattle OF
the best quality they will possess
local advantages that will give
them control of the home market,
but they must first improve their
breeds.-Philadelphia Record.

The vindictiveness of Boss Freeman
of the board Of education Of this city
cropped out again last Saturday when
the great legal light 0: that board served
mandamus papers on Il. II. Copeland,
the clerk Of the board, ordering him to
show cause why he did not turn over
the school records, seal. etc. when de-
manded to do 50 by Mr.. Freeman, the
president of said board. The order
cited the clerk to appear before Judge
Morgan at chambers at Rugby, last
Tuesday morning. Mr.. Copeland com
piled with the order to show cause, and
went to Rugby. Attorney Stewart also
went down in tho interest Of the board.
They found the judge, and Mr. Cope
lands attorney, Major Il. A. Mnglone Of
Devils Lake, who also appeared upon
the scene, entered demurrer to tho
complaint, which was sustained, and
titus Attorney Stewart Was knocked out
in the first round. The majority of the
school board do not seem satisfied with
the verdict rendered by the neople at
the election on Tuesday Of last week ],
but are determined 10 make all the
trouble possible. One would naturally
think they would take Il tumble to
themselves after awhile, and submit to
the will OF the people.

The Williston baseball nine are getting
up quite reputation for themselves
and we expect soon to hear Of their
advertising themselves as the "Invin-
cibles." The Buford boys came down
to WilIiston last Sunday with the full
determination Of wiping Williston off
the face of the earth, in retaliation Of
the drubbing they got the week before
on their own grounds at Buford. But
they made a miscalculation. The Will
liston boys scored so runs to Buford's 10,
but the Buford boys are having lots Of
fun over the fact that they made the
Willistons do all the running.
