They are sorted, and all the bad ones

buried in field.
1.-THE crop lies buried, preserved
from all harm under the soil, till early
spring. About two months before the
first genuine potatoes have appeared it
is dug up.

are dipped. When they emerge from

BURGLARS

Krohn Bros. Store, The
Commercial Restaurant
And Private Tent En-
tered By Thieves

a bold burglary took place in the
city last night, A man entered the
krohn Bros. second hand store on
Main street between Third and
Fourth steets during the early part
OF the evening and secured a large
amount of jewelry lie made his
escape
The store closes at this season al
about six O'Clock in the evening. By
nine O'Clock nearly all the business
houses along that side of the street
were closed and as the night was
wild and stormy one very few peo-
pie We're passing along the streets.
The thief selected an ideal time to
do his work
The burglary took place between
nine and half past nine o'clock. The
entire lower pane of glass in 1.-THE
front door of the store was broken
out. the thief evidently smashing the
glass with his hand. That this action
did not attract attention is a wonder,
the fellow certainly ran a great risk
and must have been very anxious to
make n haul.
The burglar apparently rihed a
large glass case in which Mr.. Krohn
keeps watch chains, rings and other
jewelry. He secured about half a
dozen solid gold rings, a dozen or
more handsome watch chains, gold
collar buttons and other trinkets. He
took the trouble TO remove the tags
and little cards from the jewelry.
throwing them upon the floor. In
one of the show windows a large
number of shot guns and rifles were
on display These evidently attracted
the eye of the burglar next and going
to the window he gathered up half
a dozen or more guns and prepared
to leave the building. He set the
guns on the outside of the doors nd
had just climbed out when j A. Moss
of the second hand store
on the other side of the street who
was passing along the south side of
Main street,came along by the krohn
store. or course his suspicious We're
aroused at once and he asked the
fellow what he was doing. the man
dropped the guns and started on
run down the street and was out
OF sight before Mr.. Moss could give
alarm.
Mr.. Moss notified the officers and
a search was made at once, but the
man answering Mr.. Moss's descrip-
tion was not located. Owing TO the
darkness Mr.. Moss could not get a
good look at the man. He stated that
he was of large build and wore
light slouch hat.
Mr. Krohn was aroused and it was
ascertained that nothing but the
iewelry was missing, the thief leay-
ing the guns he had stolen in the
doorway. Mr.. Krohn stated this
that the stolen jewelry was
valued at about $500.
An oyercoat was found in the store
this morning which is thought to be
the property of the burglar.
The robbery was one of the bold
est that has occurred in the city for
some time. entering a Main street
business house from the front, after
smashing in a glass door, at an early
hour in the evening. even if there
were few people out, is a pretty nervy

is a subject of remark that the great

question of food is very prominent.
A young man states that he had suf-
fered for nine years from stomach and
bowel trouble, had two operations which
did not cure, and was at last threaten
ed with appendicitis
He went to Hot Springs for rheuma-
tfsm and his stomach trouble got worse.
One day at breakfast the waiter, know
ing his condition, suggested to try
Grape Nuts and cream, which he did,
and found the food agreed with him
perfectly.
After the second day. he began tosleep

the food quoted his nervous system and

He saws: 1.-The next morning 1 was
