The lan'l for late potatoes should he
plowed deep and narrowed tine. The
land should never be allowed to form
Il crust before the plants are up. Run
a harrow over the field. both before
and after the potatoes are up. The
seed may be planted about five inches
deep and given level culture instead OF
killing. Glover sod land is excellent
for potatoes, and to avoid disease it is
best not to plant potatoes on the same
land twice in succession. Frequent
and shallow cultivation rather than
deep should he given.

No Mv.tery About politics.


There is nothing peculiar or mysteri-

lions, says Henry D. Sedgwick, Jr., In
The Atlantic. When two or three men
live within hail of one another, poiit-
ical relations begin. Politics begin
when men realize that other men are
forces to be considered. Men meet
bow; each drives his wagon to the
right; one sells, another buys; they
fence their acres in. They meet to-
gether to chop down tree, to mend the
road, to regulate county matters with
the next community.
Whether they like 1t or not, politics
have begun; ethical relations have be

philosophy, instinct or habit, every nor
NAL man is conscious of this religious
element Men cannot separate politics
from ethics nor ethics from religion;
they are threefold, yet one and indivisi-
BILE. From that union springs the nor
NAL law.
Rightly to understand that power is
the chief problem of life, and mankind
has long been busy at the task, but the
immediate matter for men is to under
stand that what is true of two men and
three gathered together is true Of tens
of millions. Are men to recognize this
power which acts on the Individual and
on society only when the company is
small and they can see the whites Of
each others eyes? The duty Of the
state is to recognize the scientific truth
Of the universally and persistence OF
this power and to put it to use In state
affairs.

Pittsburg in one leap. mean, of

flea increased in proportion to his size.
Think how quickly he could circum-
navigate the globe. 1t might be posi-
BILE to get around the world in an hour.
The distance from Philadelphia to
Pittsburg is 354 miles, and the equato-
