Relative Importance Of the Potato In
German and American 40


TiCQIt0Fe.
Potatoes In Germany take q morn
important place than they do in this
country. Though the country Ia much
smaller than the United States, the
area planted Is 8,165, 900 acres, as COM
pared with 3,566,OOO acres in here.
The average total yield is 1863 03.-
ooO bushels. or 202.5 bushels per acre.
as compared with an average annual
American yield Of 343,5S7 900 bushels
II the states Of Maine New York,
Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota
alone were to plant 1875 per cent. of
their arabic land in potatoes, as Ger
many does, and secure an equivalent
yield, the produce would amount to
l,55S,944,O0O bushels, four and one-half
times our present production from the
entire country.
AT the present rate Of consumption
OF potatoes In the United States,
which Is considerably less than three
bushels per capita, the needs of the
entire country could be supplied from
any one OF the states of New York,
Michigan, Wisconsin or Minnesota,
and lease a surplus unused, whereas
all the states combined have several
times failed to produce enough pota-
toes to supply the domestic consump-
ton, and in such years large quaint
ties Of potatoes have been imported
from foreign countries.
Such an immense production of DO
tatoes as is found in Germany is man
ifestly not required to feed the peo-
pie. rs matter of fact, only 90
per cent. of the crop is used for hui
man food, whil9 40 per cent. Is fed d.
rect to farm animals and IL per cent.
Is set aside for seed purposes. The
Germans plant over twice as many seed
potatoes per acre as Is the custom
here, or more than "a bushels. An ad-.
dftional portion of the surplus. in
round numbers, 1O0,000.0OO bushels, a
little less than six per cent. of the
total crop. Is made into alcohol and
used for Industrial purposes, and to
replace petroleum products. Over
50,O0O,O00 bushels. or about four per
cent, are made each year into starch.
dextrose, and related products. This
accounts for about all except ten per
cent. of the German crop. which it is
estimated is lost through decay.

WHY SOME P0ULTRYMEN FAIL
Lack Of Thorough investigation Be-
fore Taking Up Industry Has Been
Usual Cause Of Failure

While there is a great profit In
raising poultry, failure OF special
poultry farms is frequently reported.
Lack of proper investigation before
going into the enterprise has been
the usual cause of lack of success.
Then, too, perhaps, bad locations, lack
OF the necessary amount OF capital,
careless investment, improper choice
OF breeds and character of buildings

BILE.
Some of the essential features in
the successful handling OF a poultry

from the fact that the land area OF

Glib Life for Laboring
Men Planned on a Large

London, Eng, Feb. 1A.-Club life for
the working man is to be developed on
q large scale in London. A central
labor palace is to be erected at a cost
OF over S25O,0O0 which in addition to
providing meeting halls for the trades
unions is to include a moving picture
theater for the display of labor scenes.
A large organ and orchestra viii play
music written around the pictures.
Arrangements have been made with
unions in France, Belgium and Ger
many for the exchange of films a
Tor this purpose. There are also to
be dining rooms, where orchestras
VIII play during meals, a smoking
lounge and other comforts of a first
rate club One Of the chief features
VIII be stores where provisions of all
kinds viii be sold to members, and at
tines OF strikes given away instead Of
strike pay.
The promoters believe that the I'M
dertak1ng viii pay its own way. The
scheme has the official support Of the
London Trades council, which repre-
Scnts 20 unions, with a membership
Of 10000 It is expected that many
ones, now outside the jurisdiction Of
the council, viii join.
according to a report issued by the
board Of trade, supplemented by data
supplied by trades unions, organized
workers have lost nearly 100000. OOO in
wages from stoppages due to trade
disputes during the last ten years. To
this has to be added a very large
amount distributed in strike pay.
Against this the net gain in wages
resulting from disputes is reported as
$4,000, GEO. In the same period the
cured advances in wages estimated at
SIS 600 600.
