Conservative SpudS

!. N. JOBE FINDS INSURRECTO
ELEMENT RAMPANT IN HIS
POTATO PATCH.

Even the humble potato, the con-
sentative "spud,'' has thrown off the
restraint of it's time honored institu-
tons and has begun to insurge along
with the tight fitting hobble, the bath
towel hat and the militant suffragette.
Although the potato has long been
classed as a patient, inoffensive tuber
and seemed content to remain in the
obscurity of potato hill until clawed
from it's dark abode for motives pure
ly selfish, Now the potato has re-
VOTED, thrown off the sod covering,
and sprung into the light, not content
to be progressive. 1t has been ele-
waited to the class of sport"
The vanguard of this insurrecto
element in the potato patch that in
sists upon being called "sport" rather
than "spud" made it's first appearance
in the vicinity of Valley City in the
field of I. N. lobe, living on the Ed.
Bridges farm, three miles north OF the
city. Mr.. Jobe discovered the scouts
of the movement the other day at
tempting to hide under the leaves and
tucked away in the crotches of the
vines. He pulled up vine and was
astonished to encounter no more re-
sistance than could be mustered by
a group of stringy roots. There was
not a potato of the old school in
sight. Then he looked at the top
heavy vine. His eye centered on an
embryonic specimen, a sort of runt
potato very much blistered by the
sun.
'Ah, ha," said Mr.. Jobe, go you
are trying to grow on this end?"
The potato said nothing, but grad
ually began to wilt as the vine lay
on the ground, while Mr.. Jobe hunt
ed his patch for more freaks of the
