A New Kind of Potato.

1t seems that Uruguay can raise
something besides revolutions. h
United States consul at Rouen, France,
reports some interesting experiments
on a new kind of potato discovered ON
the banks of the river Mercedes, Uru-
quay, that in it's wild state is very bit
ter, but that has been made sweet and
eatable by cultivation. Moreover, 1t
seems to be much more hardy than the
Irish potato. Both the tuber and the
foliage of the Uruguay potato are eat
en- by horses, cattle and sheep.
The leaves are small and slender,
somewhat like those of the Irish pota-
to, and the flowers are abundant, of a
pale violet color and very odorous, the
perfume resembling that of jasmine.
New stems and tubercles branch off in
every direction all the year, and after
one planting the plant perpetuates it
self from the broken roots left in the
soil.
The vegetable proper-that is, the
tubercle-weighs from n to two and
a half pounds and has a yellowish,
wrinkled skin. The pulp when cooked
has a slightly greenish color. OF TWEEN
ty-fve taken by hazard and cooked
with their skins on in 1901 all were
very bitter, but of twenty-five thus TAX
en- in 1903 only eight were very bitter,
seven bitter, nve eataDle, three good
and two farinaceous. By peeling the
number of bitter and very bitter ones
were diminished by 10 to 20 per cent,
while the number of good and eatable
ones were increased accordingly.
1t is believed that by continuous cul-
tivation the bitter taste may be entire
ly eliminated. If SO, the new discov-
cry will become at once commercially
valuable.
Uruguay may revolute. She could
not well occupy part of the South
American continent and escape that
noisy habit. But the world will for
give her provided this potato pans out.

~OME woman who evidently writes
on space and wants something
to pad it out has made a list
of the things a girl can do to
work her way through college. This
list is as "amoozin' as Artemus
Wards kangaroo. One of the things
is to make tissue paper trifies for col
lege festivities" Heaven save us!
Imagine a girl paying her way through
a college course with tissue paper tri-
fes! The suggestion is about as sane
that conceived it. Another suggestion
for the girl who would work her way
through college is to take an agency
for visiting cards. No doubt college
girls spend most of their time calling
and distributing they visiting cards.
Again, the girl Is told she a make
p%incushions and lamp and candle
shades. Once more imagine going
through a college course on pincush-
ions and candle shades! Is this the
age of the tissue paper trifie mind
among women? A woman at the head
Of an employment agency for her W
sex has recently written concerning
the difficulty she has in securing per-
sons willing to do honest, steady, real
work. The first requirement of each
of the women is that she shall do
nothing menial." They are willing
to do the decorative part of the house
keeping, which the woman of the
house always does for herself, but sol
id, wholesome work, the kind that
sweetens food and sleep and makes
the muscles of the human body strong,
skilIful and rosy-no! No s%crubbing,
washing, ironing or window cleaning
for these half and half ladies. They
will accept the tissue paper trif1e part
of MISUNDERSTANDING more. Appar-
emily they put up their own high order
of varied and socially ornamental quail
tiles as offset to the wage they de-
mand. The writer of the article is
careful to say that the intelligent and
well bred woman, the real lady, never
makes the stipulation that she shall
do nothing menial." She knows that
her ladyhood is in herself and cannot
be injured by any work she does, even
though she scrubbed stairs for a liv-
ing. The woman sex will not make
much progress until ii walks away
from the tissue paper triie idea of
work.
Women writers used to adopt mas
euline pen names to get their work on
the market. The aspect appears to
have changed. In newspaper offices it
is now not uncommon for some young
man. over a feminine signature. to
compile for the woman page sloppy
advice to readers on every subject from
removing wrinkles to directions ON
how tt keep or catch a lover. The
f%1apdoodle they would be ashamed to
print over a mans signature they slip
through over a woman's.
A writer suggests, TRY doing unto
others as you would they should do
unto you for one whole day" Is there
any objection to trying it for one whole
life?
In the nineteenth century women
talked and wrote. In the twentieth
century women do things.

Some dealers were offering the pick OF their
floors at 25c There were sales, indeed a
couple Of cents this figure. but such sales
represented small lots Of special marks taken
by customers who must have those particular
brands for their trade. practically regardless
of price There are always some consumers
who use one particular brand of Butter, and
these always pay over the general market. But
the great bulk Of buyers could get what they
wanted yesterday at 25M2Gc.
There nothing new in Cheese. The mar
ket continued dull.
Eggs like Butter, were dull, with accumu-
lating stocks and large receipts There were
large shipments north on yesterdays steamer
and 1t was reported that the demand for that
quarter still continues. This is fortunate, for
otherwise prices would probably be much lower
than they are.
