DECORATION DAY
THE FUTURE OF

The spirit of Decoration day exerci.
ses, held May Both throughout the
northern states in honor Of the her.
ole dead, has vastly changed of recent
years. Once there was the glamor of
crowds, a stalwart parade OF former
soldiers, and enthusiastic gatherings
of citizenship.
The depletion of the ranks of the
veterans by death gives eacn recur-
ring Decoration Day deeper note Of
sadness. The spirit of sectional trium-
phi and bitterness has gone, for which
all are thankful. But in the place of
the sturdy marchers of 20 years ago
there is but fragment left, who
usually proceed to the cemeteries in
carriages and automobiles.
The surviving soldiers urgently en-
treat their townspeople to give these
commemorative exercises the support
of a dignified assemblage. But too
often the veterans seemed to have
passed from the center of the stage.
The younger generation know Of their
deeds only through dull history books
Ball games and outdoor life draw the
crowds. while these patriotic services
are commonly not well attended. Sim
ilsrly the observance of the various
Memorial days OF the Southern states
takes on deeper note Of pathos each
year.
All who admire the heroism shown
in the Civil war will wish to see the
exercises of the Blue and the Gray
continued after the last veterans have
gone. But in Il few years there will be
few lett or none who feel directly
responsible tt- carrying on this work.
In some towns, various churches
and societies have already organized
to observe this occasion, in place Of
the veterans who have gone. Graves
OF federal and confederate dead alike
are decorated. Honor Is done to all
who made these sacrifices Of the past
and similar spirit OF self devotion
in the future is urged. Decoration
Day should not be suffered to lapse
as the two armies depart on their long
journey, and there need be some OBJ
servances other than those at the ball
park.

MAKE ALCOHOL OF POTATOES
One Reason Industry Has Not Adj
vanced in United States Is Be-
cause of High Price of Tubers.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
That the manufacture of alcohol
from potatoes has not yet become es-
tablished in the United States is due
to various reasons. The price of pota-
toes marketable for other purposes
has been too high, and no sufficient
supply of culls and surplus potatoes
has been available. The average price
for distilling potatoes in Germany for
the five years 1906-1910 was 1873
cents per bushel. 1t is probable that
the farmers there would be less dis
posed to grow the crop if it were
not for its indirect benefits, including
the feeding value Of the mast left
after the distillation of the alcohol,
according to the department Of agri-
culture
The potato-drying industry in Ger
many is the last development in the
utilization of surplus potatoes, and
came about only through the absolute
necessity of finding an outlet for the
surplus production that could not be
consumed by the starch and alcohol
factories. The rapid increase in the
number of potato-drying factories in
Germany shows great promise for this
young industry, and should merit the
careful consideration Of our people
as to whether the time has not al
ready arrived for the Introduction of
this method into the United States,
at least on an experimental basis. The
problems to be met relate mainly to
the present cost of the labor in pick
ing up and delivering to the factory
the potatoes not marketable for table
purposes. In many cases, however, 1t
Is necessary to remove these culls
from the field to prevent the spread
Of potato diseases, and it would seem
that the drier would pay for the labor
involved. The dried product is adapt
ed for many purposes. Not only cattle
but horses have been fed the dried po-
tatoes as substitute for grain with
perfect satisfaction

Engineers say that there is no
section of the state that has
better slope for irrigation than
the land here. Some places, it is
too steep, and washes badly; in
others, it is too flat, and will not
drain off, so that drainage canals
are as important-and almost as ex-
pensive-as the original irrigation
works. But here, the land is al
most all on a gentle slope, enough
to make a perfect drainage, and not
50 step as to wash out; and there
is hardly an acre Of sour, TN
drained land on the whole tract.
Most of the irrigation is by the
corrugation method, as shown in

able enough that bitches or corrug-
ations that far apart will water
