Yields of plots of potatoes planted
at different depths. The yields were
$40 bushels per acre when planted at
depth of four inches, 1874 bushels
when planted six inches deep, and
1902 bushels when planted eight inches
deep. The shalIower planting allowed
the potatoes to come up and mature
more quickly, thus escaping the ef-
fects of dry weather.
rows. The potatoes planted at four
inches came up first, those at six
inches second, while the rows planted
at eight inches came up last There
was a difference of about two days be-
tween each set. The set planted at
four inches grew fastest and produced
somewhat stockier vines. The deep
est planting was not quite as good d
stand, although the difference was not
very great.
Exactly the same treatment as to
cultivating, spraying, etc, was given
to all the rows. No weeds were al
lowed to grow, and the beetles were
killed before they did any material
damage. The crop was dug the latter
part of September, with the following
results: The potatoes planted four
inches deep yielded at the rate of
140 bushels per acre; the six-inch
depth yielded at the rate of 124 BUSH
els per acre, and the eight-inch depth,
102 bushels per acre.
From this 1t would seem that six
inches would be the maximum depth
At which to plant potatoes.

CULTURE OF POTATOES
Opinions Differ on Proper Depth
to Plant TuberS.
Some Growers Advocate Shallow
Planting, While Others Are Just
as Strong in Favor of Deep
Method-One Good Test.
(By E. SANDSTEN.)

The depth at which potatoes should
be planted is matter of considerable
Importance. and one upon which
much difference of opinion exists.
Some growers advocate shallow plant
ing, and others just as strongly favor
deep planting. That there must be a
depth at which the highest yield may
be obtained seems reasonable. This
depth will undoubtedly vary with diff
ference in weather conditions, conse-
quently any investigation along this
line should be carried on for several
years In order to obtain reliable data.
An experiment was made at Iron
River, Wis, on sandy soil of rather
open texture. to get some information
on this point.
The ground was plowed in the fall
and given a dressing of manure at the
rate of ten loads per acre in the
spring This was disked into the
ground thoroughly before planting.
The land was nicely leveled before
planting by means of a drag. Twenty
one rows, running north and south,
were planted, each row three feet
apart. The potatoes were planted
with a planter in order, as follows:
At inches deep, rows.
At 6 inches deep. rows.
At inches deep, 4 rows.
At inches deep. 3 rows.
At inches deep, rows.
At inches deep, rows.
In this way any possible lack of
uniformity of soil was to great ex-
tent neutralized. The same general
slope obtained for all the field. max
ing the conditions similar for all the

morous narratives that relieved the

its very Importance demands serious
treatment, if the purpose sought is to

One suggestion made in the course
of his lecture if appropriated by the
community would unquestionably
prove very valuable adjunct to the
educational forces of this city. He
advocated with strong approval, the
organization of a debating club, with
monthly meetings. He said that such
an organization clarifies the atmos-
phere and purifes the current of pub
lie thought that flows from the citizens
of any community, which adopts such
means as those proposed. He said that
no arbitrary assignments should be
made in any debate, but that subjects
to be discussed one month should be
announced a month ahead, and the
discussion should be with brief speech

The Hon. Jos. G. Camp, whose rep

worthy the many words of praise that
have been spoken and written regard
ing his platform deliveries.
The subject selected by him for

ANOTHER MILLING
IN TRANSIT" CASE.

Toronto, Ont, Feb. IA case Of in
ternational interest, involving ques-
ton of freight rates and privileges,
came up for argument before the rail
way commission here today. The
point at issue is the recent order of
the commission canceling proposed
tariff changes by the Grand Trunk and
Canadian Pacific roads, abolishing
stopover privileges on international
lumber shipments, except those des-
tined exclusively to points in the Unit
ed States. The question is essentially
the same as that involved in the
milling in transit" controversy that
has been threshed out in the United
States courts. Heretofore the Ca
madam roads have accorded the privi-
lege OF forwarding at the through
rate raw lumber from the shipping
point to some intermediate point
where It Is manufactured, and ther
shipping 1t on again to It's destina
ton for a slight advance over the reg
ular rate which would be charged TO

es by those who in the meantime have
studied the subject. No one should be
required to speak in favor of a subject
to which the best sentiments of his
heart did not predispose him.
Subsequent to the lecture Mr.. Camp
expressed personal disappointment at
the fact that he became conscious of
having lost his grip on his audience
after the first forty minutes which he
held so firmly up to that time. In his
desire to discern the reason, he said,
having been himself effected in voice
and physical condition by strong cur
rents of cold air, his belief that he
was fighting against a cold room for
supremacy over the audience, so dis
concerted him as to cause him to be-
come aware that the psychological
! forces had defeated his main purpose
of proving to every mind, that his
dictum, that the greatest king on
earth, is the American who in every
sense of the phrase is a manly man.
Whether all who heard Mr.. Camp
we're with him to the end or not, there
we're some whose interest in his words
as we'll as in accord with his doctrines
caused them to enjoy every sentence

aware that the temperature Of the hal

ly man, however numerous may be
those who hold in their hands the
kingly scepter.
The subject is one possessing limit
less possibilities and its presentation
by Mr.. Camp last night was in Ian
guage strong, chaste and beautiful.
His premises were laid deep and strong,
and his superstructure of character
was beautiful and all comprehensive.
Throughout the entire lecture there
was a manifest desire of the speaker
to implant such seeds of thought as to
fructify the minds and inspire the
ambitions of the young people OF his
audience. One sentiment he asked all
the young people to remember, was
suggested by a quotation, which says:
How few think justly of the thinking
few! How many never think who
think they do"
Independence In thought formed q
large part Of the speakers subject
matter, and his plea for the breaking
of the shackels Of mental slavery were
both strong and practical.
