HOUGhTON SHOWS Sl27,O2l
ASSESSED VALUATION GAIN
Greater Portion of Increase Is in
Realty, Probably Due to
Home Builders.
COMPARISON WITH LAST YEAR

The assessed valuation Of Houghton
property. real and personal. this year
shows an increase OF Sl27.O21 over that
of the village for 1909. This is accord
ing TO the official figures announced
yesterday afternoon by Village Assess
or oliver Marion, who has just COM
pleted a tabulation of the values as
finally determined by the board of re-
view at its recent sessions. and COM
parison OF these values with those Of
last year.
BY far the greater proportion OF this
increase in valuations is shown in the
realty column, the increases here be-
ing So, 400, about so per cent of the
total net increase over the figures OF
last year. The extensive building Of
homes. especially in East Houghton,
is credited with being the main cause
of these increases. although some of
this increase is caused by the raising
of the valuation of several business
properties down town.

GROWS ToPLEss POTATOES.
Soo's Burbank Conspires With Nature
to Cheat the BUGS.

Little has been published recently
regarding the experiments of our To-
cal emulator of Burbank, Farmer Dave
Lee, but it is not because this past
master of progressive agriculture has
not been busy, says the 500 Times.
Ever since the item was published
regarding the prospects for an un-
usual epidemic of potato bugs this
summer, Dave has been experiment.
ing with a process for growing topless
potatoes, and has made such Roadway
that he now thinks he has the bugs
cheated out of all visible means of
livelihood. When his system of grow
ing the ''murphys" is revealed through
the agricultural experiment bulletins.
II is believed that this pesky insent
will soon become extinct. Another adj
vantage claimed for this topless tubers
is that they will require no hoeing,
and the growing of potatoes will be
accomplished as easily as raising hay.
Slight elevations like little mole hills
are all that reveal location of the
crop, the maturing potato growing
closer to the surface than the old va
riety, and in expanding it seems to
break the soil and Keeps 1t porus. An
examination of one vine shows that
the roots work upwards and bear but
few inches below the surface. If
this proves 10 be the rule, then the
crop can probably be harvested with
4.
Mr.. Lee is to be congratulated upon
doing so much toward lowering the
cost of living for when his method
comes into universal practice, potatoes
will be produced profltably at less than
half the previous lowest prices.

preparation was ever announced, but
it is now pretty we'll understood that
the experts in both the war and navy
departments suggested that it would
be we'll to defer action until the gov
eminent understands better what to
expect of the airship.
Officials in the army and navy de-
partments are greatly impressed with
the performances of Glenn Curtiss
with his aeroplane at Atlantic City re-
Gently. Those performances were not
under the auspices of either the war
department or the navy department,
but agents of each of the fighting arms
pressed with what Curtiss was able to
do. They have reported to their re-
spective departments that from a
height that would have protected him
reasonably we'll from fire directed
at him from either land or water. he
dropped small articles on boats and on
objects on land with remarkable pre-
cision.
Some of the experts from the de-
partments who saw the Curtiss per-
formances came back firmly convinced
that if war should come on tomorrow
the aeroplane would be able to do de.
structive work.
In spite of the possibilities present
ed by the rapid development of air
craft, the United States government
is really doing nothing toward taking
advantage of the situation.

Nathaniel Shannon, born 1866, in Lon

When 80 years old he came to this

was mayor of Londonderry 1859 and
Nathaniel was also man of affairs,
holding many town offices. He was
the first naval officer of the port of
Boston and a merchant of prominence.
The papers now preserved in the

that he was man of good education.

wASHINGTON.-The census bureau
w has made public figures concern
ing enough localities to indicate GER
tam interesting trends in the growth
OF American population. What stands
out first is, of course, the general in
crease in population all over the coun-
try. While this growth is perhaps
more striking in the middle west, or
even in the far west, the east is little
behind those sections. Increases in
city population rarely fall below 20
per cent. for the last ten years. Often
the increase is considerably in excess
of so per cent.
This growth has been expected. but
there will probably be some surprise
to find how far the growth of the
cities exceeds that of the rural dis
tricts. Here, save in few localities,
there is an increase, but generally It
is below ten per cent.
Some spot in Illinois may mark the
center of population for another ten
years. 1t is worth while to emphasize
the word may" because there is not
available at this time much definite
Information on which to make specula.
.tion as to where the center Of popula-
tion will be.
The remarkable increase in the pop
