A western railroad will order that
discharges may be the result of do
mesttc troubles among the employees,
arguing that such troubles cause a
worry strain and often loss of neces-
sary sleep. From now on every en-
ploye who wants to keep his job must
have a happy home. Even the mil
lennium seems possible in view Of
this mandatory domestic happiness.
The employees, however, may delicately
suggest that a perceptible increase in
pay may go far toward promoting
this desirable happy peace Of mind.

HOW | RAISED MY POTATOES

Written by Leonard Purser, of
King, Utah.
The land ! selected for raising po-
tatoes is sandy loan on which al
falfa has been grown for a number
of years. 1t was broken up in the
fall and plowed again in the spring.
II was fortified with ten Loads of
COW stable manure In January. Short
ly after the spring blowing harrow
ed the land twice and leveled It with
an ordinary home made leveler A
little later | furrowed the land max
ing the rows three feet apart and
about six inches deep. On May 1,
selected eight bushels of medium
sized early Eureka potatoes free
from blemish Of disease and cut them
into good sized pieces leaving from
two to three eyes to the piece. On
May 2 | planted twenty-four rows fif-
teen and one half rods long, dropping
the seed from twelve to fifteen inches
apart and covered the same by drag
ging leveler crosswise upon the
patch.
When the potatoes began to break
through the ground | narrowed them
twice to kill the weeds. Later | cul-
tivated them, using an ordinary cul
tivator. l continued this cultivation
! as | thought necessary until they haC
been gone over four different times
| also hoed them twice to keep ou
all weeds.
After the plants were in bloom
irrigated part of the patch twice al
though the greater part of the fielt
received its water through subirriga
ton from a head ditch.
On August 81, hail storm killed
all the vines and stopped the growth
of the potatoes.
On September 23, | dug eight row
and from those | selected my sampl
for the State Fair. My yield for tn
half acre was 2S3.6S bushels.
Another year by a more careful
preparation of the land both in pillow
ing, fertilization, and selection @
seed can increase the yield fifty pc
cent.
