George Jones has 20 or 25 acres of
potatoes that are making by actual
measurement 220 sacks per acre. A

4oo-YEAR-oLD CLOCK STOPS
Famous Timeplece In Hampton Court
Palace. London, Last Repaired
N 1890.

London.-The celebrated clock OF
Hampton court palace that was pro-
vided with a dial to. give astronomical
changes but never did so, has stopped
once more. It Is believed to have been
constructed by German way back
In 1910, but as matter Of fact his
tory fails to record the name Of its
maker.
The celebrated clockmaker vulliamy
reconstructed 1t In $780, but he gave
up the astronomical dial portion on the
ground that It never could have work.
ed with the machinery provided, rele-
eating that portion Of the works to the
store cupboard.
A Croydon firm Of clockmakers set
the whole thing going again in 1880,
and 1t has run satisfactorily until now.
Workmen are busy getting up the scat
folding necessary to reach the dial,
and after thorough cleaning and GER
tain repairs to the dial 1t is expected
to run for another quarter of CEN
fury with little attentions from time
to time.

UNWAsHED REIGN IN PARIS
Hot Baths Luxury-cIeanliness ID
Uncommon in the French
Capital.

Paris.-Parisians were never prone
to indulge in hot baths-indeed, the
criticism of first visitors to Paris was
often most loudly voiced in connection
with the primitive facilities found in
Paris apartments and many hotels
Yet they were, as rule, always clean
and neat and took pride In their per.
sonal appearance.
Whether IT is due to the war direct
ing their thoughts to higher things or
to the municipal edict that DEGREES
water shall be heated only Saturdays
and Sundays, the fact remains that the
Partisan today Is rather contemptuous
Of the old adage that Cleanliness is
next to godliness."
This Is particularly noticeable In the
subway, where all classes Of the city's
population can be observed. The pro-
portion of unkempt. dusty. unwashed
persons with doubtfully clean ears and
black-rimmed flngernails Is very large.

Il becoming pest to q certain degree.
IT is an aid to the farmer because OF
It's appetite for grasshoppers,, how
ever. Discussing the insect Mr. Wal
lace said:
During the season Of 1918 the oom.
parative scarcity Of blister beetles
was often commented on in this Office,
and as grasshoppers were quite numer-
Gus, a pest Of the grasshoppers was
predicted for the season Of 1917. This
prediction came true and more dam
age has been done this season than for
many seasons past.
However, the blister beetles are
found in such numbers over the state
that they are becoming pest in many
fields, but also a blessing as they are
the greatest means Of controlling
grasshoppers."
