5000 BUSHELS MADE
ON TWENTY ACRES
Yellow YamS Bring This Man
Big Profits
albany Herald.)

This year Mr. B. NJ. Wilson, on
lis Farmland Farms, a mile west of
TIE city, has planted twenty acres
or more in sweet potatoes, and he
IS now gathering a crop of potatoes
O. commercial proportions.
He chose the yellow yam variety,
and his potatoes will class as choice
and bring the top of the market wher-
ever they are offered.
a conservative estimate of his
yield based upon the portion of the
crop already gathered, exceeds 200
bushels per acre, and the actual
qield will probably be nearer 250
bushels per acre. 1t seems to be a
safe calculation that he will have
not less than 5000 bushels of choice
vans
He is sacking for shipment 1000
bushels for which he is roeievce
bushels for which he is to receive
63 cents per bushel f. o. b. Albany.
The larger portion of his crop he
viii probably bank, and after Christ
mas or at any time next spring every
bushel of them will be as good for 2
dollar even in the local market, as a
ginger cake with persimmon beer on
the side ever was for a dime at -
Old fashioned county fair.
Mr.. Wilson has certainly demon
sLrated the fact that growing sweet
potatoes on a commercial scale is
worth while. His twenty acres OF
sweet potatoes will prove to be the
most profitable part of his farm this
year.
The supply of sweet potatoes Is
never equal to the demand in the
spring. even here in the section
where they can be grown so profit
ably, and the whole country is an
open market for them. There is,
therefore, but little danger of over
production, and the grower who
banks his crop and holds it for the
spring market will realize the best
prices.

Then there is Miss Leona Thompson,

most diminutive comedienne on the
American stage This lady does Il
burlesque on Nine. TetrazZini which
is one Of the big hits with THE Win

Electric Light Canes.

Some canes are fitted with electric
lights. In the case of canes made
with the ordinary bend or crook for a
handle the light apparatus is set in
the body of the stick just below the
handle, with the lens in the side.
Most of these canes are made straight,
with the light equipment in the upper
end and the lens set in the canes top,
this form of electric cane being more
convenient to use.
There is a button at the side which
Is pressed to make the light show.
The only battery by which the light
is produced can be renewed in these
canes, just as it can be in pocket or
other electric flashlights.
