Most Important Factors.

Nevada can produce an i'm
mense tonnage OF high class po-
tatoes. In order that this may be
done strict attention must be paid
to the fundamentals of good farm
ing and scientific potato practice.
The most important factors in
California and Nevada are the
proper soil conditions, rotation Of
crops, high altitude seed, whole
seed potato partially matured
through seed bed preparation and
last but not least, frequent irriga-
ton and culture. Mr.. Eugene II
Grub closed his lecture with an
interesting and instructive talk OF
disase, illustrated with stereop-
tican views of the tuber in all its
phases.

made in the hide. Storage cellars
should be built that you can drive
through, with big double doors al
either end which will control the
temperature. Instead OF placing
potatoes in bins, five or six feet
high with no ventilation, start at
one end of building and lay them
one foot deep along the floor
reaching the other end, go back
and continue this operation over
until your cellar is filled. This
allows an even temperature to all
the potatoes, keeping them cool
and preserving them till time to
ship.
Form an Association.
The best manner in which to
get results in marketing the tuber
is by the formation of a potato
growers association. There should
be local association, district as
ISOLATION, and national associa-
ton, with the object in view OF
not only finding the best market
and educating the grower as to
the best method of raising, but
this association should work to-
ward the increasing of the con-
sumption of the tuber.
Not Talking in the Air.
Mr.. Grub stated that in max
ing this assertion he was not talk
ing in the air; that Mr.. Rockefel-
Ter and the great captains of in
dustry had all worked along these
lines, and were crowded with sue
cess. In 1912 there were twenty
five million bushels imported in
to this country from Europe.
Great Britain only the size of Col
orado grows more potatoes than
the whole of the United States,
feeding its entire people. Germany
grw thirty-fve bushels for each
man, woman and child. The
United States grew 2 - bushels
last year. All Atlantic States use
artificial fertilizers, the scarcity
of potash due to the war, which
is used as fertilizer causes a great
shortage in these States. The de-
cline in the gerat Delta region
from $50 to 65 bags, all tend to
present to the people of this sec
ton wonderful opportunity,
would they but study the best
methods for care and handling,
thus producing the highest quail

Make Potato Enduring.
You must know how to make
the potato industry enduring, as
it is in Europe, where they have
been growing the tuber for hum
dreds of years and getting better
results as they continue. There
is more superstition and isnor
ance on this question than in any
other today. Mr.. Fulton has scoid-
ed you enough, but as | have new
err talked to the same people twice
and been lecturing fifteen or TWEEN
ty years, maybe for the reason
that they would not listen again
| must scold you some more, tor
| think it will do you good. Your
lands are deficient in nitrogen, and
it will be impossible to grow a
profitable crop on raw sagebrush
land, If you grow 100 bags today,
you could grow $50 after the land
had been sown to clover or alfalfa,
and then plowed under, cutting
the crowns blowing anywhere
from two to four inches. Get
ground open in the fall, and cross
plow to depth OF nine inches in
the spring. You must have a good
root bed for expansion on the root,
bear this in mind. Disc the field
in the fall. The frost of winter
freezing will disintegrate all dirt
from the roots, and when plowed
in the spring you will have per
feet seed bed.
Perfect Seed Bed Necessary.
Work it up, you must hav 4
perfect seed bed. The only way
the potato can get it's moisture is
through this seed bed there must
be no air space. A good, fine seed
should be used, as it is essential
to growing good potatoes. You
should get the best cultivator, and
make your trenches deep, killing
high and wide, and to get ample
space for forming of the potato
and to protect from sunburn and
frost.
Healthy Seed Needed.
A good, healthy seed is needed
to get the best results. The hide
of the potato is very important
factor and should not be bruised,
considerable care should be taken
to this end in order to protect the
tuber in shipment. A special
cultivator should be used, running
as close to planted tuber as pos
sible, breaking the earth at least
IA inches deep. This should be
done Immediately after the plant.

you can cultivate in this manner,
as you must not destroy any root
that might be sprouting from the
seed. Each cultivation after this
is shorter, the tuber must have
moisture at all times, by good,
deep trenching and killing after
the first cultivation, as the potato
grows in the hill above the seed
your hills should be large and
your trenches deep in order that
the irrigation water feed the seed

have a special demonstration from the
Majestic Factory to explain how the
Majestic is made and why it is absc

why it bakes bread evenly, top, sides
and bottom without turning; why it
uses so little fuel and saves food waste.
He will explain it's labor saving con-

VILLAS THREATS

Experience has shown that reports
which come from FL Paso must be
taken with grain of salt, when they
pertain to conditions in Mexico and
plans which are being made there for
operations against this country, so
that there may be good and sufficient
reasons for discounting the latest tale
which is to the effect that Villa an
nounced while in chihuahua that he
intended to divide his men into groups
of 20 each and distribute them along
the American border and in the in
terror of the United States to loot and
burn property.
That Villa is capable of making
such plans cannot be questioned, and
he recognizes that nothing would do
SO much to make a farce of the I'M
derstanding which is likely to be
reached between this country and
Mexico, and to show up the lack of
control on the part of Carranza, than
the successful carrying out of such
raiding operations.
Villa has been doing his, utmost
since it appeared that the two repub-
lies were likely to agree, on a settle
ment Of the border trouble, to show
up the weakness of the de facto gov
eminent. and to make plain the fact
that he is still a power to be reck-
oned with. Villa knows of course how
powerless Carranza has been in the
past to prevent border raids and by
his reported statement he adds en-
phasis to it. but he must realize that
this country is not going to leave the
border entirely to the protection OF
Carranza or the mercy of the bandit
rhieftain.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
A Tribute to Mrs. Larsen.

Mr.. Editor: Kindly allow me space
in your paper for n few words. express
s1ve of appreciation of the late Mis-
Kammo Larsen, words that I know
will be heartily endorsed by those who
knew her as friends, and who mourn
the departure from their midst of this
excellent lady.
She was Of Danish birth, and her
early womanhood was spent, first III
training for, and later in occupying po-
sitions of responsibility in private fam
lilies of the highest education and Gull
ture and also in public Institutions
and being gifted with a mind capable
OF readily appropriating and assimi-
lating that which is worth while in the
world of intelligence. she developed a
taste for the best, both in men and wo-
men as well as in art and literature,
that showed out in her whole life. She
came to this country twenty -four years
ago and had spent the whole of tina.

many of the women of today are 50
interested in, either social or organ

life out in as far as she was able to.
and her taste and means allowed She
was a great lover Of flowers, and her
home, inside in the winter and out.
side in the summer, was a continual
feast to lover of flowers. She prov
ed it TO be a fact. that flowers are re-
sponsive to the touch of loving hani
as much as people, and it really seemed
as if they doomed twice as big and
beautiful as elsewhere. Her tastes In,
literature, both secular and religious,
was of the highest order. In this, as
well as in the many things of interest
to the real women of today, her whole
life showed out and left an impress
on everything that told In stronger
language than words, the kind of char
aeter she possessed Her ideals were
most clearly expressed in the words
of the Apostle Paul, Whatsoever
things are true, whatsoever things are
honest, whatsoever things are just
whatsoever things are pure, wf1atso-
ever things are lovely, whatsoever
things are of good report. if there De
any virtue. if there be any praise, think
on these things
And this was certainly true of Mrs
Larsen. Having been brought up a
Lutheran, she held to the simple
plain doctrines of that creed and
showed in her whole life that her
faith was not good or bad. we believe
she will be found at that great last day

backs to identify them as Teutons in

the same as that of the farmers hiring
them and of the soldiers guarding
them. That they were satisfied APP

to get away.
The several thousand German SOL
diers employed in the harvest gave
no trouble at all. To the great major
ity of them French farm life was a
revelation and a satisfaction that
found expression in frequent inquiries
as to whether there was any prospect
that they might be allowed to essab-
Iish themselves in France after the
war.
Not. all of these improvised farm
hands make good harvesters, though
they did the best they could
After all it was the American self
binder that saved the harvest; with
out it much of the brave effort Of the
women of France would have been lost.
Every machine was utilized to its ut
most capacity. In communities where
there were none and where the farm
ers could not afford to buy one, the
commune procured machine for the
common use of the farmers in turn.
Traction plows aided only slightly in
the preparation of the soil. 1t is the
recognized necessity of the future, but
the outlay required is too much foT the

Diplomas for Overcoming War Diff
a. culties.
Among the war recompenses that
will be handed down with greatest
pride from generation to generation in
French families are the diplomas, now
framed and hanging on the walls of
many a farm house, attesting how the
peasant women and farmers wives,
widows and daughters overcome war
difficulties. The soil has well repaid
the effort and, thanks to them, France
is sure of another year of ample liV-
ing.
The actual cash returns will equal a
record year in time of peace though,
excepting oats and potatoes, the yield
was below the average.
This country of the Brie, which is
generally second only to the Beauce in
wheat production and first of all for
oats, stands at the head for both, yet
this crop was Sown almost entirely by
women, girls and boys too young or
women too old to shoulder rifle.
There is a good example of what was
done on little farm just outside the
shade of the forest of Fountainebleau
at Wiener, where in modest farm
house hang the framed diplomas ac-
corded by the Syndicat Central des

of Madame Beaujouan and her daUgh-
ters, Raymonde aged II and Jeanne

sBeaujouan was modified while the
grain was still standing in 1914; Mad
anne =Beaujouan and her daughters
have harvested three crops from that
farm since. The third is the best of
the three, for they lacked the wrist, :"
as Jeanne Beaujouan puts 1t, until
they had had the experience of two
crops.
They are proud of the crop for the
crep's sake, but they don't seem to be
aware of the remarkable effort it re-
quired of them to do the fertinzing,
blowing, narrowing, seeding and har-
VeSting. When one talks to them about
1t, they tell him to go and see the crop
that. Madam6iselle Marthe Bon FeVe

tute the record for girl farming during

these heroines of the rear take no
praise individually: there are SO many,
they say, who have done as well.

A WoMAN,s. REFoRMAToRY.

Action which must be looked upon
as timely, is that which has been
started by the meeting of the connec-
ticut Prison associations committee on
delinquent women looking towards the
securing of the necessary legislation
for the establishment of state re-
formatory for women. This is by no
means the first effort that has been
made in that direction. The PROPOSE
ton has been before two or three ses-
sions of the legislature. The merit of
it has not failed to receive. recognition
but favorable action has been prevent
ed because of the lack of available
funds and the need of practicing
economy. Connecticut had gotten to
the point where it was rolling up a
big debt, it's expenditures were con-
stantly exceeding its income and each
year meant an addition to the bonded
Indebtedness. with the result that a
woman's reformatory was listed among
the things which could wait.
Most every community, however, has
its cases, which show that there
is a need of reformatory for
women as well as for men Frequent
are the instances where there is an
opportunity of retaining those who
have gone wrong, if there was but an
institution for such work. Instead of
sending them to jail or prison, where
the punishment often results in MAX
ing hardened criminals of those who
could be reformed under proper in
huence, correctional institution
would in many cases be preferred by
those who have the say as to what
should be done with the erring ones.

THE NEW CHAMBER OF COM.
MERGE

Norwich has reason to expect much
from the new officers who have been
selected to mako the Chamber OF
Commerce of this city the active and
responsible civic organization which
tt is expected to be. For several
years the city has suffered from the
GvaIryl MhichSexIsted sbe tweAhs the two
bodies to- which this new Chamber Of
Commerce is the successor. The lack
of harmony and unity which followed
the efforts of those organizations to
cover the same ground for the same
purpose needs no review, but there is
good cause for rejoicing on the part of
the community In general that it has
been brought to an end.
8 With united organization, made up
Of the business men and citizens who
have the welfare of the city at heart,
the time has arrived for all to buckle
down to sbusiness. to unite for the pro-
motion of the development and in
dustrial growth of the community, to
get out of the rut of factional differ
ences and to give a boost to whatever
stands for bigger and better Nor
witch, and the development of this end
of Connecticut.
Well known and active young men
have been placed in the offices, but in
this as in other organizations it must
be realized that the greatest results
are to be obtained by the general CO.
operation of. all the members. 1t
therefore behooves this organization
starting off afresh- to develop the get
together spirit in q manner which will
pc credit not only togitself but to
the community for which it stands.
There is plenty to be done and results
are what count
