ARoosTooK POTATOES.

In the Fort Fairfield market Saturday
and Monday $3.50 was the standard
price, although quite q little more was
once in while paid. This Wednesday
they are going for SLIGO to $l.65, al.
though more than $1.7O has been heard
of. One of our business men has already
bet SIS that they will 60 to 81 barrel
within week, and put the money up,
too. We hope he will win that S., as it
would mean whole lot of dollars to
Aroostook county if he should. Every
where there is the same story-a light
crop, but the finest quality. The dig
ging is now winding up very rapidly. Of
course the matter of digging in itself IS
a small affair nowadays, with potato
diggers hauled by horses, but the pick
ing is where the work comes in. This
year, with the amount of picking. hand
ling and hauling SO much less than with
a full crop, it is pretty easy to get over
the fields and get through with the dig
cling operations. The splendid quality
of Aroostook's potatoes is being heard
of in all the markets this year, and well
it might be.-Fort Fairfield Review Oct.

BLISS POTATOES.

. Verify the way of the Bliss potato is
mysterious and hard to follow. Ordi-
narily it is not worth splitting upon or
even inquiring about, and man may
have 10000 barrels and be no better off
than if he had an acre of black flies.
Then as soon as he has given his Bliss
spuds away, he may wake up some fine
morning to find they are worth So. SO a
barrel. and priced by everybody as dear
ly as the British army prizes shells and
the German government loves lies A
late lamented Fort Fairti Id farmer
used to say that Bliss were not worth
anything except about one day in the
year and that he was usually drunk on
that day SO be could not sell them, so
that they were not very profitable po-
tato for him to raise. The Bliss is a
little too fnicky, frisky and notional to
be a profitable thing for an ordinary
farmer to monkey with.-Fort Fairfield

Eel Grass Stops Navigation.

Congressman Peters has received a
large number of petitions asking him to
use his influence in having channel dug
through the eel grass at Mount Desert
narrows, and expects to present the
matter to the River and Harbor COM
mittee at the coming session of Con-
gress in the hope that the merits of the
project will be recognized by the COM
mittte. AS reported in The American
several weeks ago, the grass has accumu-
lated in the narrows ana near the toll
bridge to such an extent as seriously to
impede navigation, making it almost
impossible for power craft of any kind
to pass through the parrows except at
extreme high water Ellsworth Ameri-

THE FUTURE OF THE SUBMARINE.

Today would say without hesitation
that the submarine has not replaced the
battleship as the principal factor in war
at sea. Taking it in its existing stage Of
development, a submersible vessel is use
full for certain purposes only. 1t cannot
yet be called sea-going or sea keeping, 1t
is not fast; and it is extremely vulner-
able. Already devices for it's destruc-
ton are multiplying; the aeroplane or
dirigible can see it we'll below the sur
face; the net, the mine field, the destroy
er are all being used to oppose it, and a
new type of armed patrol boat is being
built for the purpose of watching the
seas surface for signs of the mechani-
cal whale that must come up. Sub
marine signals, also, although now in
the infancy CT development will doubt
less soon be able to detect the presence
of moving submarines and give accurate
ly their direction and distance.
1t would be, of course, not unreason-
able to suppose that, while the weapons
for the destruction of underwater craft
are being perfected. the improvement of
the submarine itself will continue. With
cut doubt its size will increase, it's en-
gines, both surface and sub-surface,
gain in horse power and resulting speed,
Its radius of action grow and its sea-
worthiness improve. nave said moth
ing of the discomfort of the officers and
men on the present-day vessels, nor of
the we'll known fact that the propelling
and operating mechanism is in such an
experimental stage that frequent acct
dents occur; these are the evils of any
new apparatus witness the automobile
of fifteen years ago. But the time is
not far distant when the "habitabillty'
and safety from mishaps will make SUBJ
marines as dependable as any other high
powered, complicated vessel of war.
Two lettering factors will probably al
ways be present in its development: the
inability to see under water, and the
necessity of coming to the surface at
short intervals.
The submarine has come to stay. 1t
has taken it's place, not as the sole weap-
on in naval offense and defense, but as
an adjunct to other weapons. That it is
useful for coast defense, for commerce
destroying, for scouting purposes. and
as part of the protection to and at

tablished. Assistant Secretary of the
Navy, Franklin D. Roosevelt, IN the

POTATOES AS HOG FEED.
When Prices are Low Surplus Potatoes May
be Used Advantageously with Other Feeds.

When Prices are Low Surplus Potatoes May
be Used Advantageously with Other Feeds.
Because of the surplus of white or
Irish potatoes now on the market and
the consequent low prices, many farmers
have been seeking information as to the
possibility of feeding them to hogs.
Many experiments have been conduct
ed in Germany and other foreign coun-
tries as well as a few in the United
States to determine the value of pota-
toes as feed for swine. In Ireland and
Germany farmers feed large quantities
of potatoes annually. From expert
mental data it has been concluded that 4
to 4 l-2 bushels of potatoes when cooked
are equal to about l bushel of corn for
putting gains on hogs. Therefore, If
corn is worth 80 cents a bushel, potatoes
when fed to hogs would be worth only IL
to 20 cents a bushel. There may, how
ever, be instances where it would be
more advantageous for the farmer to
feed to hogs right on his own place at
least part of his crop rather than to haul
these potatoes to an already overloaded
market.
According to the concensus Of opinion,
potatoes are fed to the best advantage
WDen cooked or steamed anu mlAeu WIFI
other feeds. Experiments in which raw
potatoes were fed alone have been re-
ported. In certain instances the raw po-
tates are said to have caused scours.
However, raw potatoes in small quaint.
ties and in a diet lacking succulence may
be conducive to health in pigs.
In cooking POTATOES only enough water
should be used to make a mealy mash
and prevent burning. The resultant mea
should then be mixed with corn meal ol
other g. ain supplement. Tankage, skin
milk, or meat meal would probably ado
to the profit of the mixture. Potatoe.
when prepared in the manner described
and under the conditions mentioned car
often be fed to pigs with advantage.
