SOME WAYS TO INCREASE AND
IMPROVE OUR POTATO CROP

Wisconsin is now engaged IN the
production of standard crops OF pota-
toes. Potatoes differ from certain
manufactured products IN that the
standard of quality is much eHecteo by
cultural practices and environment.
Low quality of car shipments IS Of
ten attributed to lack of method IN
sorting and grading at the LOADING
stations This is in part true, but
another serious difficulty to contend
with in the matter of Standardization
is that of faulty soil conditions.
Two factors enter into this consider
alton: first, that of fertility; and sec
ond. disease free soil. The lack of
nitrogen in some of our potato soils Is
probably the cause of many weak hills.
Potatoes respond readily to nitrogen,
especially in we'll drained soils of the
sandy loan type. Nitrogen can be
readily added by the growing and
blowing under of legumes, like clover.
In this same connection it is neces-
sary to emphasize the need of vege-
table matter IN potato soils. A good
potato soil contains much decomposed
vegetable matter, and retains moisture
during drought times. 1t is assuredly
true that "stock of high quality cannot
be raised on WORKOUT depleted soils"
In reference to disease-free soils the
industry In Wisconsin is fortunate IN
that such large percentage of the
crop is raised upon comparatively
clean new soils, which are fresh and
healthy. Wisconsin can truthfully set
forth the claim that a large acreage
within her borders is comparatively
free from some of the troubles which
are more serious in the older potato
sections.
However, there is not potato sec
ton in the United States without some
potato maladies with which to contend.
Some of these diseases can only be
controlled through proper rotation and
the maintenance of desirable cultural
conditions.
For instance, common scab is a dis
ease which will give much trouble I'M
careless soil management. Such meth
DDS as spraying and seed treatment
will always be important in the matter
of disease control, but it must be re-
membered that disease control is also
dependent upon the maintenance OF
good system of crop rotation.

MANS CASH VALUE

When a bespeckled, serious minded
mathematician sets out to demonstrate
the economic value of human life, the
average business man yawns and looks
cynical. nevertheless, we all know
that human beings have a cash value.
Insurance companies build up their
enormous business upon the practical
and substantial recognition of fine fact.
farmer, deprived of the service of
an able bodied son, appreciates the
sons cash value when he hires a sub
stitute. Business men recognize mans
cash value when they form their boost
er organization to bring new industries
ftO the home town and thus increase
the population. Real estate in New
York City would not be worth more
than that of one of our northern coun-
ties, were it not for the difference in
the number of inhabitants.
The average length of human life
has been doubled in the past four
hundred years. That has increased our
wealth tremendously. Cold blooded IN
.surance actuaries, who draw high
salaries for knowing and not dreaming
say fifteen more years can be added
by utilizing existing knowledge.
Human health and strength repre-
sent the states and individuals great
est asset. Safeguarding the possession
is distinctly worth while

"HOW is YOUR APPETITE?"

A prominent tuberculosis expert has
repeatedly stated that he has never
seen d consumptive who had been a
big breakfast eater previous to the
beginning of his illness, On the other
hand, he stated that practically all of
his patients have been of the type
which breakfasts on a little fruit, a
very little bread stuff or cereal, and a
considerable quantity of coffee.
French Investigator has made
scientific observations on human energy
which can be tested by a delicate
machine at different hours of the day.
He is reported to have found that the
loss of energy is greatest in the early
morning after arising. From this he
argues that the big meal of the day
should be breakfast, that tea and
crackers can be taken at 4: 80 or 500
p. m and a medium sized meal at
about $50. IA
There seems to be reason in this and
warrant in the natural feeding habits
of many of the lower animals. Our
present habits of eating would seem to
be quite unsatisfactory, judging by the
number of food fads which are ergerly
taken up, and as eagerly dropped.

The defeat was tough one for Ayers,
and may partly be charged to Agnew's
interference ON the pitcher in the
eleventh inning. Two were out, with
Acosta on third and Ayers at the bat.
Acosta, realizing that Ayers already
had made two singles off Hamilton, and
was not likely to get third, took a
long lead off third and dashed in with
the pitch. From the stand it seemed
that he had the base stolen clearly. The
pitch was low. and probably would
have been ball. giving Ayers his base.
Agnew, however, either Intentionally.
or in his eagerness to get the ball and
tag Acosta, knocked Ayers bat aside.
The ball was missed entirely and
bounded over Agnew's head
There was an argument between the
Griffmen and Evans when he sent Ayers
to first and Acosta back to third, but
the umpire was firm. Williams, serving
as pinch hitter for Moeller. had a
chance to sew up the game here, but he
fouled to Austin.
The Browns invariably prove easy
pickings for Ayers, who fooled them
into extra innings today. When the
Browns visited Washington early in
the month Ayers faced them in two
games of the series, and won two shut
outs. Counting the eighteen innings he
pitched against the st. Louisians and
the first si. innings of today's game
gives Ayers a record of twenty-four
consecutive shut-out innings opposed
to the Rickeyites.
Twice before getting his single that
won the game in the twelfth Pratt was
bafi1ed by Ayers with runners on bases.
In the first inning Shotten singled and
Austin walked. Pratt failed twice to
sacrifice and then lifted to Milan. With

"a lot of people picked the Pills to
blow. but I was not one of them. I
knew all along that a club composed
of as many natural hittters as are in
the Pills lineup would be bound to

instead 1of blowing the club should
really Improve. Everything depended
on whether Moran could keep his pitch
ers in shape. He has done that, and
the club is better equipped for hard
finish than any other club in the

From the tenor of Higgins remarks
1t could be deduced that he favored the
chances of a western club, presumabl
either the Detroit Tigers or the Chi
cago White Sox. to win the American
League pennant.
If western club should win," he re-
peated, that would materially in
