1t is not necessary lUr the assocla-
ton to purchase, or erect their own
building; they can remodel some
building suitable for use. Also, it is
unnecessary for the creamery to have
it's own refrigeration or ice-making
machinery; in fact, one Georgia
creamery found it more profitable to
buy it's ice rather than manufacture
it.
Creamery failures used to- be a com
mon thing. But several years back,
colleges in New York state instituted
a course for creamery chemist-mana-
gers, and since then. under the, guild
ance of these trained experts, cream
cries have had much better chance
at success.
Determining Factors.
The point wish to make principal
ly is: drive with all force toward set
ting a date for the creamery's open
ing-the most practical date, after all
things have been considered-and get
busy with the country side. For until
the farmer is very certain of the
creamery's opening at certain def
mite date, he will never move one
step in the direction of necessary pre-
marathon, without which the section
can never be reliable support to the
creamery.

YIELDS OF SWEET POTATOES
Loss of About Eleven Bushels Per
Acre in 1916 on Considerably
Increased Acreage.

Sweet potatoes, on a considerably
Increased acreage this year, show
yield Of 91.9 bushels, which is about
IL bushels below last year and about
one bushel below the average. How
ever, because Of increased acreage, the
total production of 67,663,000 bushels
is, with the exception Of last years
crop Of 74,295,000 bushels, the largest
ever produced in this country, and
much above the average Of 51,117,000
bushels.
The crop In New Jersey is 100000
bushels, compared with 3,565,000 BUSH
els produced in 1915. In Virginia the
outturn is 5,07O,OOO bushels compared
with 3,740,000 last year.
The crop is strikingly better also in
North Carolina, and does not vary
greatly from last year in the remain
ing states. In quality, sweet potatoes
are reported at ST., much below the
fine quality Of 92.2 reported last year
and slightly below the average of SS.5.

FARM WORK AND MACHINERY
ELOQUENT Statesmen Often Fall Into Ex-
aggerations and Make Farm
ing Appear as Joke.

Much mischief hos resulted to farm
ing as an occupation from the exploita-
tion of the idea that machinery will do
the whole job and that future agricul-
ture will be q matter of pressing but
tons and setting wheels in motion. The
eloquent men who make and sell ma
chimes often fall into eXaggerations
that are hurtful and that finally get in
to cartoons which depict farming as
mere joy ride. 1t is silly and futile, Of
course, and 1t should miSlead no one.
The trouble is that too much of it is
believed and the thing soaks into the
general consciousness.
Good farming is work, hard work. 1t
is not going to be anything else. HUI
man genius will continue to help in
minor improvements, but the big,
eternal plan goes on. The soil is full
of miracles, but there is no miracle
that will enable man to use the soil
profitably without labor.
When the ablest scholars Of the
world set about to revise the Bible
they reverently left untouched and un-
changed the nineteenth verse of the
third chapter of Genesis: "In the
sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread"

TRAINED NURSES
WANT S. RAISE
NEW WAGE SCEDULE Eff
FECTIVE IN NOVEMBER.
Organize and Present Demands Just
Like Bakers and Butchers-And
They Are Going To Get II
From Denver Hospitals

Trained graduate nurses of Denver
have formed an association and are
demanding n raise in wages from S25
to $50 per week. In this they show
more grit than teachers employed in
the public schools. In fact, they re-
alizc that TO meet war prices they
must unite to secure war pay for
services rendered.
Just like the butcher. the baker and
the bricklayer, the nurses have made
demand upon the hospital manage
ments for IS more per week.
Previous to 1906, Denver graduate
nurses received S2l week. Since
1906. they have been paid s25 week.
On Nov. the price will jump to $50.
The new price has been agreed on
by the Trained Nurses association Of
Denver and the alumnae of Denver
hospitals. There are nearly / 900 grad
uate nurses in the city who will de-
mand the higher salary after the first
of the month. Also, it is said that
practically all nurses thruout Colo
RADIO follow the Denver scale of sal
aries, which will add another thousand
women to the $50 payroll of the sick.
A few weeks ago there was consid-
cradle talk of n strike by Denver
nurses. Now the women say there
will be no strikc-not il they receive
the thirty per.
At the meeting at which the new
wage scale was decided on, it was
pointed out that nearly every big city
