4 friend tells good w.y to save sweet
potatoes. lie says he has tried it many
years and has never found it to fail. He
digs the tubers before heavy frosts, per-
mits them to dry little. and then puts
them in boxes and stores them around
the kitchen stove The box. may be
near nough so they will not ignite and
the potatoes will not be harmei. They
become heated through the day and will
not freeze at night in most kitchens. He

Sam saye he has always been fond OF
ham sandwiches. and now comes his
better half with something new in the
line OF sandwiches They are called jam
sandwiches. Sam says he is somewhat
mixed now on question Of sandwiches
He does not know whether they are hand
sandwiches, sam jandwiches or jam sam
witches. At any rate he is fond Of any
and all OF them when he is hungry and
is not at all particu'ar ar about the name,
SO he has enough of them.
There Is a tendency to almost ignore
the county fair by some farmers. don't
believe this is good plan. Every county
fair ought to be made strictly an agrl-

have been produced and learning any
thing that will he Of advantage to them.
Neighbors and friends can meet and visit
and talk over interesting topics and a
few days spent at the county fair will
not be lost. In almost every loss there
is some gain.

Precious Gems.

In the csskst Of the heart, three prec.
ious gems lie hidden, only waiting the
touch Of willing mind and hand to un-
clasp the lid, and bring them to the
light to shed their splendor on unhappy
human beings. Love is an emblem Of
the pearl, pure, yet modest and as it is
washed and refined it becomes more
beautiful, and with untiring efforts it
reaches out to make happy all Gods
creatures for its influence can hardly be
resisted. Christ's great love for man
kind is an example that we can bat try
and follow, weak though we may be; for
it teaches US what love is and what it
can do. II we love Him, we will try to
love those around US. for did He not
give His life for us, and surely Love is a
pearl Of great price.
Truth is another precious gem, and il
resembles the opal in its loveliness as il
emits it's rays in many bright, flowing
colors: for it is beautiful in its goodness
and a noble heart prizes tho valuable
gem, for no life is happy when it is ab'
sent, and to possess true and undelfiied
love. Truth must do her part in casting
her light on our fellow creatures. We
bring forth the third gem. whose value
Ia beyond price, for it comes in the form
OF friendship, the diamonds. II we have
never given this word serious thought
let Us now, for ii contains far more than
We realize. True friendship is some
thing 70 be proud Of and il rightly used
10 prize worth possessing. Where there
is love and truth, there is also friend
ship. As this gem sparkles its rays
shoot in all directions and are grasped
by those hungering for such sweetness
iu life. As these precious gems go out
on their missions Of mercy, give them
their full value, for you will be happier
in the giving, than TO have locked the
gems In tas cssket Of the heart, where
they would rust and be valueless. D!
what JOY are the beautiful gems unless
they do some one some good!
To own these three one can count self
rich indeed. 30 let US be charitable and
give of our gems. Spurgeon says, The
tender words and loving deeds are ilf-
mortal seed that will spring up in ever
lasting beauty in our own lives and in
,hose born after u.s."

What Causes Better Farm Prices

Some light. as to whether there has
been an improvement in agricultural
conditions may be obtained by compar-
ing the Chicago market reports for June
!, 1926, with June /, 1900. The farmer
could get 81 per cent more for his corn
on June l, 1900 than he could June l..
1896: % per cent. more for his oats, "a
per cent more for his hay. 2G per cent.
more for his butter, So per cent more
for his hogs, % per cent. more for his
cattle, and 8 per cent. more for eggs.
This is an average OF % per cent. better
! Irices for products than IN 1896. The
great factors IN improving prices Of farm
products are: 1st, 10 increase home
consumption, which is done by giving
labor employment rs the result Of open
ing Of mills and factories and stimulat.
ing all kinds OF manufactures and
trades: secondly, the incrase Of our for
eign trade by expansion and opening OF
new markets. These two factors have
been present during the last three years
and to them has been due the improve.
ment in the agricultural conditions
Keep these thinge up, and farmere will
continue prospering. Glut the home
markets, and shut off or restrict the for.
eign markers. and you have the condi-
tions for filling prices and hard times.

WHAT is BRYAN 70 Dor HE ANSWERS.

In the answer which he has
just sent to the publishers of the
Denver Post declining their offer
to an editorial position at $40, 900
year it is believed that William
Jennings Bryan has indicated his
intention to continue making
speeches and to be in line for the
presidential nomination four years
hence.
That appears to be the only in
depreciation to be put on his tele-
gram to the editor of the Post,
which read:
"H. I'll. Tammen, f. g. BonGis,
Denver Post, Denver, Col.
Thanks for your offer, but | can
not accept. | shall remain here,
and in the future, as in the past,
defend with tongue and pen the
principles which believe to be
right and the policies | believe to
be wise"
If this does not mean that Mr..
Bryan means to pursue exactly the
same course he pursued during
the past four years with the same
objectin view, what does it mean
Bryan is not disturbed or con-
cerned as to his ability to make
a livelihood for himself and his
family. His depth as a political
and economic thinker and the
ability of his pen assures him that
his personal finances cannot suf-
fer. Bryan has made snug for
tune from his writings and lee
lures in the past few years. Some

those with which we have felt

puppets of u Henry James or the
paper dolls of a w. w. Howells,

men, women and things.

larlze and no venom Of abuse is
sufficient TO kill. Such book
wins way of its own, with the
critics or without them.
Physicists tell us that about the
earth, from pole to pole, sweep
great currents OF electricity,
bearing energy untapped to run
the engines of a thousand-year-
hence civilization. Round the
world of human hearts there pull

c.notion. A look which reaches
cut and touches this eyer-present,

a thread of human conductivity,
feels an instant response, sufIici-
ent to reproduce it a hundred

of this he has kept for himself,
but a great portion of the money
has been donated to causes in
which he has taken an interest.
TODAY Mr.. Bryan could retire
to private life and live in comfort
on the income of what he has
massed. The profits from the
book he published after the cam
paign of 1896 were sufficient to
enable HIM to invest sum in
bonds which will bring to him an
annual income of $4,000
Bryan is man of simple tastes,
and this sum would be sufficient
to educate his children and sus-
tain his family in comfort.
A year ago last week Bryan
made speech In Lincoln in the
course of which he said:
.'Some of my Republican
friends,' he continued, shave

what will become of me when

CABINET is TO STAND

istration Not to Depart
From Its Previous Policy.

Washington, ID. c., Nov. g.
The first meeting of the cabinet
since the election was held this
morning, and, from negative
standpoint, wasthe most import
ant of the year, for it was deter
mined that there should be no de-
parture from the. previous policy
Of the administration in any par
ticular in any department. Of the
government. IL was assumed
that the people of the United
States tacitly indorsed the conduct
of the president aud bis advisers
In both foreign and domestic af-
fairs, and cast vote of conf
:denoe. IL was also assumed that
any departure from their previous
policy would, be not only impoli
tic, but improper. There will be
mo changes in the cabinet so far
rs human wishes can control flu
sture events. The present lnem-
bers Of the cabinet are satisfied
with their positions and relations
and are willing to stay and the
president will be glad to have
them. This is the most hsrmo-
|nious cabinet we have had in
Washington for years. In pre-
Esious administrations and early in
this there have been disturbing
element and uncongenial disposi-
|ticns. At present, however,

THE RESULT WAS DECISIVE.
BY W. Z. HEARST.

The defeat Of the Democratic
candidate for president imposes
upon Democrats everywhere the
practical duty of organizing their
forces. This important work
must be undertaken now and con-
tinued vigorously until the nation
al government Is once more con-
trollcd by the spirit and purpose
of its founders.
The nation has rendered deci-
sive verdict on the issues submit
ted TO the people, and the admi-
nistration of the affairs Of the
country has been again entrusted
to the Republican party. All De-
mocrats Loyalty accept and sup
port the decision of the majority.
The defeated leader Of the Demo-
cracy has borne himself with
dignity, and even those who
assisted In his defeat acknowledge
his honesty, courage and manly
patriotism. He has vindicated
the American name by his un-
flinching sincerity.
There will be time enough in
the future to weigh and analyze
the cause of defeat. The inme-
diate duty of Democrats Is to pre-
prepare elements of victory by
making their clubs and societies
permanent organizations. Every
club formed during the campaign
just ended should be continued
and increased.
1t is the purpose Of the Nation
al Association nf Democratic
clubs to promote the growth of
the broad doctrines of Thomas
Jefferson by unceasing efforts.
The national organization, there
fore appeals to Democrats in
every State. county and precinct
to renew the struggle for good
government at once, and to see to
it that Democratic clubs and so
eieties are maintained permanent
ly in every neighborhood. 1t Is
the duty Of every good citizen to
belong to some political organiza-
ton, so that the collective virtue
and intelligence of the patton may
be brought 10 bear on questions
Of platforms and candidates in an
orderly and deliberate manner.
This :s the time for Democrats
to 60 to work. Two aud half
million citizens are now enrolled
IN the membership Of the Nation
al Association of Democratic
clubs. They should stand together
now and in the future. All who
believe in Democratic principles,
regardless of past political diffe-
rences. are invited to assist in the
great work which lies before the
Democracy.
The national headquarters of
the clubs will be kept open in New
York until Il Democratic presi-
dent is seated in the white house.
