our daily food daily life little of it is neces

everything we eat. The salt Of life" which we hear
about signifies the health vigor and wit which we find
in life There was time countries far from the sea-
where primitive used salt in his food, and 1t
was only when nations advanced in civilization that salt
became an absolute necessity.
But it was not alone as food that salt was valued;
among the ancents salt spring regarded gift
Of the gods and it believed that any salt found in
the soil lent it peculiar sanctity and made it place
where prayers were most readily heard. Every meal

TEN PTATION,

Alone, alone in the city's glare,
Nothing to help but her two hands bare,
To drive back the buzZards of human kind
Who seek for carrion every hand.
Women, you had neither courage nor knife
To kindly take from your sister her life
In a few lazy words your sharp tongue does more,
For you STAY the fair reputation she bore.
MY God, They have taken all had left
OF father, mother friends all bereft;
One priceless jewel left alone to guard
For which had struggled so hard"
Now to have it in sacrifice laid
Another victim to women's vile trade.
Have pity, We angler hurried along
One more weary one swells the throng Of the wrong
Ahunger for sympathy in desperate way
What wonder from the paths of right she should stray
Accepting false vows in longing for true,
Rendering love where no love due.
Love is holy, unsel6sh thing;
Pure love in its path wiz leave no sting;
No sacrifice of right will it require:
Desecrated by self. It's but base desire.
Alone in the desolaton of night alone
Kneels woman by her chid's last home
Self-seeking and after things worldly to strive
Brings the only death to die the world to live
The thunders roll with threatenings by;
Lishtnings tear paths through the sky:
Amid all mute white face is upturned
In the agonized prayer in learned
Strike hard. We Fates, We Gods. grind on
Only in thy mills strong souls born
In the dark changing face of Time serene.
Majestic above life, great souls rise supreme.

Of the methods tried for the
prevention of rot none proved
successful when the potatoes
were stored before thoroughly
drying or before they had under
gone the sweating or curing pro-
cess.
1t is important that sweet po.a-
toes be ripe when dug if they are
intended for storing. This may
be determined by breaking or
cutting several and leaving them
exposed to the air for an hour or
two. If the cut surface turns
black or greenish black they are
not ripe. If the cut sur face dries
white or very nearly the same
color as when freshly cut, they
are ripe, and may be safely dug,
cured and stored. Some grow
ers are careful to dig before the
vines have been injured by frost,
while others delay in digging un-
til after frost. The main objec-
ton to the latter plan is that
frosts are usually preceded by
rain, and too great time may
elapse before the soil has suffi-
ciently dried to permit digging.
If dug when the soil is too wet
earth will adhere to the potatoes
and this not only Injuries them
for market, but makes them
more difficult to keep. The soil
should be dry when the digging
is done, and if the potatoes are to
be cured by artificial heat they
may be taken at once from the
field to the drying room. If not
to be dried by artificial heat it is
important that they be kept at
a uniform temperature, and we'll
ventilated, that the water which
evaporates from them may rcadi-
ly pass off. After sweet pota-
toes have become thoroughly
cured, they keep we'll if kept
thoroughly dry at all times and
stored where a temperature of
55 or 90 degrees F. is maintained.
If these conditions were main.
tanned it is I'M material whether
they are stored in mounds, cel-
lars, or especially constructed
houses, and the method of stor-
ing must be determined by the
convenience of the grower"

Sweet Potatoes.


issued bulletin on Sweet Potato
Experiments" The bulletin
con aims much valuable informa-
ton in reference to the growing
and storing of sweet potatoes.
During the past four years a
large mum bcr of varieties of po-
tatoes have been grown. The
yield has been from 40 to 4O2
bushels per acre on soil produc-
ing from 40 to so bushels of corn
and IL to 16 bushels of wheat per
acre, 4.8 bushels more per acre
of sweet potatoes were obtained
from large seed used in planting
than where small seed were en-
ployed, but 9.8 bushels more per
acre of merchantable potatoes.
Cuttings we're found to be equal
ly as good as slips. Ridge and
level culture we're compared,
covering period of two years.
The highest total yield and the
highest yield of merchanta BILE po-
tatoes were secured from ridge
planting, where the ridges werc
3 inches in height These also
gave less culls. The expense of
growing any crop was lessened
by thorough preparation before
the crop was planted. Cultiva-
ton should cease after it inter-
ferred with the growth of the
vines. Prof. Newman in expert.
menting with the keeping of
sweet potatoes says: "That if
corn, or other grain is
stored in bulk before it has
thoroughly cured, it is sure to be
damaged to a more or less ex-
tent, and frequently becomes uu-
fit for use. In the process of
curing, the grain undergoes what
is usually termed, the cheating
process or sweating" when it
gives off its surplus water, and
to more or less extent under
goes chemical changes.
Potatoes undergo a like pro-
cess when dug, and it is at this
stage that decay is most liable to
attack them if the temperature
and the moisture of the surround.
ing area is pot as it should be.
Stored potatoes should be kept
at temperature, not more than
90 nor less than so degrees, and
should never become colder than
the air that surrounds them, since
this causes moisture to develop
on the potatoes-a condition most
favorable to rot.
A number of lots of potatoes
were selected as soon as dug and
treated in various ways with the
hope of checking the tendency to
rot. Each lot consisted of about
one bushel of potatoes of uniform
size, there being the same num-
ber in each lot. No attempt to
store within three to five days
after digging was successful.
The following table gives the
methods of treatment and the
percentage of sound potatoes ten
weeks after they were dug:
