In al the wide world there is no
more a2gravating phrase than 81 told
you So" Yet at times there are few
people who have sufficient strength of
mind to resist using the phrase, irri'
tating though it be. For we are all
human, and when our words of wisdom
and sage advice are scorned, and we
see the scorner reaping the aftermath,
it is hard to resist the tempting re-
mark that so fits the occasion.
However, unless we have yearning
to be positively disliked by those with
whom we come in contact, it would be
a good plan to rule the remark clean
out of our vocabulary. For it does not
tend to soothe the person to whom it
is addressed. Upon the contrary, it
rouses fires of anger and dislike-and
always fails of its point, too, for 1t
never, never, never really convinces
him that he was in the wrong and that
you, with your infallible wisdom and
foresight were in the right.
And so, logically, it would be infinite
" better to check the phrase at the
start rather than rouse up bitterness
and wrath.
The happiness of one young married
couple has been completely wrecked
by this spirit of argumentativeness on
the part Of the wife. She has a posi-
tive passion for that unfortunate
phrase Il told you so.s Upon every
possible and impossible occasion she
| airs ii, ana always to her husbands
disadvantage.
The curious thing is that she is real
| " fond of her husband. Now that he
has left her, she realizes this fact only
too clearly. Il would give everything
in this wide world il l only had hin

WASHING SILK.

Washing Wisdom.-After washing
your silk blouse add aNfew drops of
alcohol to the rinsing water. This

IRISH POTATO GROW
ING IN ARKANSAS
TIMELY SUGGESTIONS IN FERTh
LlzlNG, PLANTING AND CULTh
V.;TloN OF STAPLE FOOD PROD
UcT ADAPTABLE TO ARKANSAS,

Excepting rice the potato Is the
most widely used food plant for the
human family. 1t should therefore
find a place on every farm. Original
ing in America, It has been improved
and It's cultivation has been increased
at about the same rate as has been the
Increase IN population. They are now
grown In all states OF the United
States, but principally in the Northern
md Eastern states.
Fertilizer.
Generally speaking, fertilizer com
tanning from three per cent to four
per cent nitrogen, six percent to eight
per cent phosphoric acid, and nine pei
cent to 10 per cent of potash will give
good results, the kind and amount to
apply depending upon the kind OF
soil and the natural fertility If the
soil is clayey II win require less pot
Ash than the sandy types,
Planting.
Potatoes should be planted as early
as possible in the spring say from
February % IN the southern part Of
the state to April ! in the northern
part Plant about four inches deeD
IN rows three feet apart planting tho
pieces one foot apart in the row,

Cobbler are possibly the best early va
retes, while Rural New Yorker No,

leigh are the best late varieties There
is no one variety that is best for all
soils under all circumstances,
Cultivation,
Cultivation should begin as early az
possible after the plants begin TO ap'
pear. and should continue at intervals
Of ten DAYS to two weeks DO not use
plows that run deep into the SOIL, DNt
rather one that has number Of small
teeth to puvcrize and loosen the sou
10 a depth OF from 2la TO ? inches,
The object Of cultivation Is to keep
down weeds and to conserve the soil
moisture, therefore cultivation should
be done as early as possible aItor a
