The ECONOMY OF OYSTERS.

OF all foods oysters probably show less
waste than any other in fact, there is
no waste, even the shells are valuable
as chicken feed, in road making, as fer
tilizer and as the raw material out of
which buttons, ETC., are made, to say
nothing of the pearls they produce.
But it is as an article of food that the
oyster shines. Having practically the
same food value as meat, it is even more
easily digested and therefore an impOr-
tant part of the invalid's diet. Owing
to the improved methods of packing and
an ''R" is being put into every
month Of the year, for it is now possible
to enjoy oysters in almost every month.
In the East they are eaten every day
in the year
In buying beef, mutton, poultry or
fish, by the pound, there is always
good deal of waste in the form of bones,
inedible portions, feathers, etc. In a
cut of steak, for instance, the waste
often runs as high as 80 and go per cent.
In poultry it is often greater. In the
oyster there are no bones. no feathers
and no inedible portions; it is all meat
and particularly rich in those elements
which go to repair Over-worked brains
and nervous systems.
Oysters are readily prepared in a chat
ng dish more so than other foods. If
The average housewife only knew of
he many delicious dishes she could make
n a chafing dish, the consumption of
oysters would increase by leaps and
pounds.

fine YIELD OF SWEETS.

The crop of sweet potatoes in Della
ware was never larger or of better
quality than the one now being dug.
From eight acres J. Stanley Short, the
trustee of the Potter Estate for Kent
County, has dug and sold to Captain
William Murphy 5000 baskets of primes,
and over 400 baskets of seconds, and
they have several hundred baskets of
small potatoes which are valuable as feed
for cows. This brings in over $500, or
more than 500 per acre from this one
potato crop. This experience is only
one Of the many who grow sweet pota-
toes in Delaware. The farmers of Del
aware at the close of this season will
not be in need Of any friend to endorse
q note.

Semmens could land a second punch
squarely some of the players inter
vened. and the second one-round INST
battle of the trip was ended
That made 1t unnecessary for the
trainer to write out a formal resigna-
ton of his position and saved Evers
the trouble of accepting 1T in writing.
AS soon as the incident was reported
to Cub headquarters President Murphy
notined one OF several applicants for
the Job that he could have a tryout at
once.
The new dispenser OF pills. plasters
and adhesive tape is Harold Casey.
whose name. like Abou Ben's. led all
the rest. Semmens expects to Join the
Cincinnati team In the same role, as
he made known to his friends that he
had received an offer from Manager
Tinker which called for a raise of $500
over his salary with the Cubs.
Manager Evers admitted having used
the epithet to which Semmens took ex-
ception, but declared he meant no more
by it than II he had applied 1t to an
opponent in the ordinary course OF
events on a baseball field. He ex-
pressed no regret at the occurrence
On the contrary. he said that Semmens
practically had decided to accept Think
er's offer and was merely looking fol-
good excuse to quit the Cubs.
