MO|ESE VALLEY POTATOES
SURPRISE PEOPLE THIS YEAR

Last year the Moiese valley
raised some large potatoes, but
indications now are that this
year the potatoes grown there
will surprise people. George S.
Coleman brought in some new
potatoes Monday last which are
larger now than many localities
can grow in a whole season.
Should these spuds continue to
grow as rapidly from now on
till fully matured, the Northern
Pacific will have to advertise
larger potatoes than ever this
year, and Moiese will be able to
supply them in any size wanted,
except little ones.

Ventilation Test.

A single way to tell whether your room is properly ventilated is to place a wiae-necked bottle of water into which you have put half an ounce of lime water, in the room, letting it remain uncovered over night, If in the morning the lime water is milk the ventilation is bad. If the lime wa ter becomes milk on your covering the bottle mouth with your hand and shaking the vessel. tke ventilation is not sufficiently good. If the lime water remains clear, the air of that room is pure.
