To Raise Money.

Could You kindly suggest some plans
in which class of young girls coul
raise money for furnishing a room in
the church? OLIVE,
The best money makers seem to be
connected with things 10 eat, so why
not have a Saturday market? Have
on sale all sorts of nice things for Sun
day, and at this season, when every
one is picking and preserving, have
glass and jar table. As everything
will be donated, there will be good
profit. You can arrange pretty booths
and dress IN colonial costumes, as it is
coming near Thanksgiving time.

President Taft in my opinion, will

ageous and aggressive executives who
has occupied the White House. He is
not boxer. When he strikes he is
sure OF his ground. I think he will
prove a better fighter than Roosevelt.
During the latters first term in the

Origin of the Potato.

Boston Globe: The potato belongs
to the nightshade family. which in
cludes tobacco, belladonna, tomato,
eggplant and pepper. 1t is native OF
the elevated regions Of the tropics of
Peru, Chill and Mexico. 1t is believed
to have been carried to Spain from
Peru early in the sixteenth century
and introduced into Virginia from
Florida by the Spanish explorers. 1t
appears to have been brought to Ire
land from Virginia by Sir Francis
Hawkins In 1865, and to England by
Sir Francis Drake in 1885, though the
credit is usually assigned to Sir Walt
er Raleigh, who brought them to the
attention Of Queen Elizabeth in 1886.
and first introduced their culture in
ireland upon his estate near Cork.
The potato is still found in several
varieties in Peru, Chill and the island
of Chloe, the wild plant bearing a
close resemblance to the cultivated.
Apart from the abnormal develop
ment OF the tubers and the very much
reduced production of seed, it is be-
lieved there has been no changes in
the potato plant since its cultivation
became general.
The common potato was described
in 1897 by Gerhard in his HERBAL
and in the following century was Gull
tivated on a small scale in the Neither
lands, Burgundy and italy and on ac-
count Of It's abundant yield was rec
commended by the Royal society of
London in 1868 for introduction into
Ireland as a protection against fam
ines, but it was not until the middle
Of the eighteenth century that it ac-
quired any real Importance on the con-
tinent OF Europe, and not until the end
of tn .eentury did. 1t become important
as 81 field crop tim Germany and
France, which are today two OF the
greatest potato producing countries in
the world. The potato is not mention
ed in The Complete Gardener, work
published in 1919, and as late at It'll
only two varieties. a white and a red
are mentioned in the most important
English work on gardening, and they
were considered only fit for a food
for swine and cattle.

FOSTERS FORECASTS
(cOpyrighted by w. w. Foster. lSO0.)

January, but not much snow and not
much precipitation of any kind before
the middle of the month. January will
be dry in Florida, lower Mississippi va
leys from Memphis south and in the
greater part Of Texas. Very little rain
during January in Mexico and extreme
southern part of Florida. Very dry in
vicinity Of New Orleans.
Grain and Cotton.
The cereals and cotton are high
enough for the time. 1t is usually good
policy to hold these till just before the
next crop comes in but few farmers
and planters can hold them so long.
At time OF writing this bulletin the
prices are high enough and offer those
who cannot hold till next August an
opportunity to sci at fair prices. Oats
are too high.
There is always a loss in grain that
is held over till August The shrinkage
is usually great and on corn it will be
very great this year as there is large
amount Of soft corn. OF course the
doctors at the great grain centers will
buy much of this soft corn, smoke it
over sulphur, dry it by artificial heat
and sell it at first class prices.
The Argentine frost was used by
SPECTATORS to put up prices of grain
and the market ran away with itself.
But who ever heard of corn being in
jured in this country by a frost early
in June2 Corn frosted to the ground
about the first of June always comes
out again and usually makes a good
crop. A December frost in Argentine
is similar TO June frost in this coun-
try.
When the bears again get control Of
the markets the Argentine crops win
be reported good and the bears will get
control between this and first of March.
