S-Economy is conservation of phy-
steal strength and nerve force.
9-Wealth is only one evidence OF
thrift. Economy is another.
Unsuccessful economy is the re-
suit of high ideal in the standard of
living and is not dependent upon the

u. $. SUBMARINE BOAT LOST
OH Honolulu. Crew Of Twenty
One Perish.

The American submarine F-4 lost
off Honolulu harbor last Thursday
with a crew of two officers and
nineteen men, has at last been To-
Gated on the oceans bed in SO
fathoms, or 300 feet of water.
Searchers for the lost submarine
F-4 reported to Washington Sunday
that they had determined the loca-
ton of the vessel within a radius of
fifty yards. and that she lay at the
bottom of the mouth of Honolulu
harbor, in water ranging from
forty-three to sixty fathoms in depth.
Rear Admiral Moore. at Honolulu,
cabled to Secretary Daniels the fol-
lowing, received by wireless from
Lieut. Smith, commanding the search
ing fleet:
I'VE know location within radius
of fifty yards; depths vary from
forty-three to sixty fathoms; Homo
lulu harbor light bearing "a degrees,
true distance. $500 yards"
All hope that any of the crew of
twenty-one might be alive was aban-
doned two days ago, but department
officials and naval officers anxiously
await news that the bodies have
been recovered.
It is feared. however, that the
submarine may prove to be the
tomb of her crew, and that it never
will be known what accident befell
her. Naval officers say that if the
boat is covered by fifty fathoms. or
three hundred feet of water, it is
unlikely that she can be raised.
However Secretary Daniels says that
the F-4 will be raised at any cost so
as to determine the cause of the &C
cident and serve as a guard against
similar ones.

PLANTING DATES FOR POTATO
For Northern Half of Country Ex.
treme Range Seen.s to Be From
April I to July I.

Qy c. L FITCH. Colorado Agricultural
College)
From New England west there 10
discussion of early versus late plant
ing for potatoes. Each man in work
Ing out his question, or at least each
neighborhood, will find help, we be-
feve, from the following principles:
On health depends both the quality
and quantity of the crop. Disease 10
the limiting factor. There is a con-
;nection between ripeness OF tissue
and disease, and between soil heat,
wet soil and disease. Sunny weather
makes warm soil. Much rain or irri-
cation on fiat lands produces soaked
soil Soil fungi are also factor, and
they seem to accumulate as a potato
region gets cider. Clay soils remain
soaked longer than sandy soils. Some
troubles accumulate in the seed. There
is limit to keeping Of seed potatoes.
to the maintaining Of good moist
warm but not hot seed bed, and
limit to early planting because Of late
spring frosts and too late planting
because of early fall frosts.
To sum up: On the side OF early
planting are newness of soil, cloudi-
ness of average season, good slope,
good drainage. sandy soil, new seed.
poor storage and early season In
spring and fall.
On the side Of late planting are old
soil, midsummer heat and sunshine.
hatness of land, poor drainage, clay
soil, old seed, good storage. late
season in spring and fall. For any
district there is a tendency to plant
later, and to use later rather than
earlier sorts. For the northern half
of the United States the extreme
range seems to be April to July 1,
with May Is to June Is seeing most
Of the planting.
