Introducing the Dasheen.

The dasheen, comparatively new ed
ibIe, threatens the supremacy OF the po-
tato. II is being cultivated in Florida
with much success and with much profit
TO its cultivators, according 10 the Fruit
mans Guide.
The dasheen stalks grow TO height
from four 10 six feet. The plant has
shield shaped leaves, not unlike ele-
phant's ears. Each hill OF dasheen con-
tains one or two large spherical corms,
which grow 10 five pounds in weight; |;
round them are developed numerous
tubers. Both corms and tubers are like
the potato in composition, but they con-
! tain less water. One plant will produce
from four to ten pounds Of tubers in good
rich soil. Both corms and tubers have
an agreeable nutty flavor, and are easily
digested.
The cook can serve dasheen in the
same way that she serves a potato, and
she can also prepare the blanched shoots,
forced from the coms in lighthouses, as
she does asparagus. The leaves, when
tendeA will take the place Of spinach.
Perhaps tie dasheen will be familiar
vegetable in our markets before long.

COTTON MARKETS.
NEW YORK.

NEW YORK, May 10.-There was q
further recovery in the cotton market
at the opening today. with first prices
II to II points higher on a renewal OF
Saturdays buying movement, and in
sympathy with the sharp advance at
Liverpool. Local traders, however, an
ticipated much wider difference be-
tween foreign and domestic markets
owing to the disturbed war risk situa-
tion, with the result that prices here
did not fully respond to the strength
abroad. while there was renewal of
scattering liquidation around the ini-
tial figures, and the market soon re-
acted to within or 8 points of Satur-
days close.
Reports from the domestic goods
t lie were encouraging. and further
overs in the west were conside red
,.nfavorable. but sentiment was still
evidently unsettled, and people who
had carried long cotton over the break
of last week appear to be selling on
the early advance.
Futures opened firm: May, 9.25: July.
$50. October. 1000: December. 1922;
January, 1920.
Rumors of very disturbing develop
ments in Washington threw the cotton
market into a state of excitement bor-
dering upon decentralization late In the
morning, and October contracts sold off
from a.13 to 9.46 within five minutes,
making a break of about 81 points
from the high level of the morning

lieved the strain, and there were rail-
lies of Is or 20 points shortly after
