dency to blight. In a patch of about
half an acre he dug one-third just be-
fore the tops were dead, dried and put
them in the cellar. Not one of these
rotted and all seemed to keep in per-
feet condition. At the same time he
pulled the tops on another third of
the lot and burned them, leaving the
potatoes in the ground until the mid
die of October. when he dug and
put them in the cellar. These also
kept perfectly. The other one-third
he did not disturb until the first of
October, and when dug fully one-half
had rotted.

BOND ISSUE
MAY NOT BE
ASKED FOR

day TO Discuss Solution OF
Revenue Pr0blem...The Lee
School Sewerage.

As the result of the conference OF
Health Officer DR.. II. p. Sights, May
or Smith and City Solicitor Campbell
In Mayor Smiths Office this morning
Il Is probable that no bond issue will
be asked for by the school trustees
The conference was called with ref
Ierence to the insistence OF the health
department on sanitary arrangements
for the Lee school building, which is
In a deplorable condition The school
board has no money and the school Is
necessary. II was decided that the
school trustees shall meet Wednesday
u gbt with the finance committee of
the general council and lay the case
before that body. in The hope that the
general council viii appropriate So
900 TO provide for sewer connections.
At that meeting also the bond IS
sue will be considered. The board
has a floating debt. approximatlng
500 900. and its interest account is
eating up revenue. which Is now not
sufficient 20 pay current expenses of
maintaining the schools
II was learned that the bond issue
Will not relieve the situation. as It
can be used for building schools only,
and could not be used In paying of q
floating debt. while a sinking fund
would have TO be created to provide
for the payment Of premiums and the
gradual retirement Of the bonds.
This year the city can DO nothing
for the relief Of the schools, but II Is
probable that q way of Increasing the.
schools revenue above IS cents on
the 500 assessment viii be suggested
at the commit meeting.
