The growing Of potatoes in this
county has passed the experimental
stage, and already is an assured sue
cess. Besides growing them for home
consumption many cars are each year
shipped to the southern markets at q
good profit and the demand keeps far
in excess of the supply.
The potatoes raised here are OF a
good size, smooth and clear skinned,
and of a fine flavor and quality, far
superior in this respect to the product
of Minnesota's famous potato belt.
This is evident from the fact that the
Red river potato commands a price
ranging from 10 to is cents higher for
the same variety in the markets of
out state.
Many farmers utilize the potato
as a ~renovator or cleaner OF over
cropped land, or land infested by foul
weeds, with very fiattering success.
The stubble is plowed and the po-
tatoes planted, and under these con-
ditions a crop OF from seventy-hve
to $50 bushels per acre is secured. To
show the result Of experience along
this line. a few extracts from a splen-
did letter written by Geo. w. Bilsbor-
row of Wolverton, Mimi, will show
some of Wilkin county's results along
this line. Some sixteen years ago.M MT.

that period the annual acreage has
been from twenty-five TO forty acres
and the yield from seventy-ive to 25e

INCREASING THE

Farmers who content themselves

rocks must either be sunk or haule

Many suggestions have been ventured
as to the origin of the bones, among
them that they mark a monastic burial
place, or that they were the skeletons
of the victims of a plague, or that the
bones are those Of the slain at the bat

the remains are the bones Of villagers
buried in the fourteenth and fifteenth

The Timur ruby has been a part of
the British crown regalia since it was
presented to Queen Victoria in 1851 by
the directors of the East India COM
pany. There has been more or less
mystery in the history of this jewel,
some experts even c~ontending that II
has been lost. The recent visit of the
king emperor and his consort to India
resulted in the publication Of a history
of the jewel written with the idea OF
clearing away the misapprehensions
surrounding it.
The Timur is the largest known
spinel ruby, weighing just rel 35z
carats. 1t is uncut, but polished and
was probably discovered in one of the
old ruby mines of Badakshan. 1t was
seized by Ameer Timur, better known
to western historians as Tamerlane
when he plundered Delhi in 1898. II

Joseph Josephs was the 7-year-
old son of a Syrian grocer, of
Lackawanna, steel suburb of

On the afternoon of October II,
the father sent the boy to a candy
store. He was seen to enter the
candy store, and nothing was
heard of him afterwards.
The distracted father believed
his. boy kidnapped. He offered
reward of $1,000 for his return,
and promised that nothing would

There was no answer to the Of

then employed private detectives.
