THE POTATO SPECIAL.

The Lehigh Valley railroad has undertaken fine
bit of agricultural missionary work. Moved by the
scarcity of potatoes generally. and believing
that western New York and northern Pennsylvania
have realized their potatogr possibilities,
the is sending a special train thoroughly
equipped for demonstrating the best methods Of potato
culture 1t will show how select seed, how to cut
and plant them how cultivate spray the plants,
any other matters useful for prospective potato
growers to know.
It's the of thing that has been for
years the northwest by the railroads controlled by
James J. Hill. but it be the first time an
railroad has up isn't purely
philanthropic A railroad naturally expects to get
back. in freight payments more than it expends in
such development work. The potatoes and other
crops raised along line, the there is
ship the bigger the transportation profits AL
any railroad could afford TO do the same thing,
stimulating the production agricultural products
adapted 10 particular localities along right way.
Why. though should such enterprise be left for
private corporations? or when taken up by public
agencies why should agricultural specials be con-
fined to the few state governments that have far
adopted the plan? 1t is a proper and praseworthy
enterprise for any state And the federal
itself ought to be doing great of sort of
work

BY Frank VI. Williams.

In considering the part which the
Barge canal will play in the event
of hostilities between this country
and Germany many points which
are deserving of serious thought are
brought TO light. Furnishing. as it
certainly does, a direct route for the
transportation of all manner of pro-
duce between the east. Great lakes
and middle west, the Barge canal
forms an essential link in an inland
waterway system which covers a
territory of more than 1000 miles,
reaches into the very heart Of our
grain district and links ii with our
eastern and middle western manu-
featuring centers.
Approaching this fact it can read
lily be seen that in the event of war
the canal will be invaluable as a
means for the carrying Of freight
for the nOn-cOmbatant population,
leaving the railroads free for more
important military usages, such as
the transportation Of munitions and
troops to threatened areas or mob
ilization points.
In this manner much congestion
would be avoided on the various
railroad lines. and should the condi-
tions become such that IL would be
impossible for the railroads to carry
all the munitions the canal would
be able TO relieve them and furnish
a water route which would place
New York city and its fortifications
in direct communication with Chi
cago and other cities bordering on
the Great lakes. as well as the giant
steel plant at Gary, Ind.
As a means for the transpOrta-
ton of heavy guns from the west tc
the fortifcations at New York the
Barge canal is uneXcelled. Under
present conditions a heavy siege
gun. If transported by rail, must be
sent in sections. owing 10 the lack
| of space on the average railroad car
/ If this same gun were placed on a
barge it could BE transported with
out TIE necessity OF being taker
apart. and could be delivered direci
/ 10 the front where il is 10 be mount
ed without necessitating a transfer
/ thereby saving much valuable time
/ which is an all important factor in
a period Of acute stress.
Work on ali contracts which are

able Roadway is being made despit,
the cold and other conditions which
in winter tend 20 make any kind o.
