FROST INJURIES
POTATO CROP

Wise onsin's potato crop has beer
hard hit in many sections of the state,
especially on the late fall varieties, &C
cording to President j. w. Hicks, prin-
tice, of the Wisconsin Potato Growers
association.
"The early crop was unaffected by
the frosts or blights," said Mr.. Hicks
to a reporter at the state fair. "How
ever, on many of the late crops the
buds were blasted by the frosts and
there will be no potatoes.
''Will it result in high potato prices?
That is hard to say. The fall crop will
be short. That is the big winter supply
source. 1t would seem that if the sup
ply is short prices would necessarily
be higher than usual.

f. E. Nash of Chicago, assistant
general superintendent of the Chicago

the secure piling of the south approach

tain exactly the conditions at the ap-

prevent the possibility of future trou-

Superintendent Nash, however, thinks
it can-in fact, that it is now, since
piles have been plentifully driven.
It seems that at the side of the fill,
Just below, was a deep excavation

nearby brick kiIn sub merged by back
water fronl the Prairie du Sac dam,
and into this hole the earth under the
tracks slumped after being soaked and
softened and by the rising waters. A
long stretch of rails and ties thus was

tely discovered the danger.
The bridge itself set on great stone
piers in the river, is regarded as ex-
ceptlonally strong.

To Extend Military Training

The announcement that the govern ment will establish a military train ing camp for students and business and professional men of the south at Oglethorpe, Ga, near Chattanooga, next April, under the supervision of Major General Leonard Wood, is of interest to collegians and high school boys of military bent and not few men settled in life. The camp will be modelled after the one maintained at Plattsburg, N. r., last summer.
 Students will be enrolled for the summer months and others will train during the spring. In general way this training camp project is in line with the national preparedness pro- gramme, but as only small percent age of youths and grown ups" will avail themselves of the opportunity to learn something of army routine it will hardly be considered seriously by Congress.
 But it can do no harm. It may do some good, for every boy is all the better for being subjected to such discipline as regular army officers enforce.
