ANOTHER OLD LANDMARK GONE

One by one the things Of We olden
time are leaving us and day by day
we see the vanishing Of the ties that
bind US to the past, leaving in their
places only memories of things that
were, but are not; shadows which fit
past us In their flight to the realms
Of yesterday. Listen to the following
from the Houston Post:
"The old.fashioned red flannel pet.
ticoat has entirely disappeared from
North Carolina" declares a Tar Heel
editor. Then no more shall we hear
Of the Tar Heel heroine who used to
prevent railroad wrecks by waving
the red petticoat at the approaching
train in time to keep 1t from rushing
into the washout.

Wilt think Of me. perchance.

That thou one thought should'st tell,
But let me look on thee.

And when my love has laid me low,
And l lie in my bier.
Mayhap above my clay thou'lt shed
One little, lingering tear.

methods durin the past ten years has
been greater than in the preceding
hundred.
The latest effort in the farmers be.
half IL q plan to save his potato crop
for him. which heretofore has largely
gone to waste. Commenting on this
plan, or rather the means employed,
the Houston Post says:
'The year 1916 was the first in all
history when the sweet potato repre-.
sented real money.
For the first time the grower could
place his potatoes in bonded curing
plant, take the receipt to his local
bank and get actual cash for It.
According to reports from the ex
tension department of Agriculture
and Mechanical College. there have
been fifty Of these curing plants con
structed under the supervision OF tina,
department. They have capacities
ranging from 900 to 1000 bushels.
Heretofore so per cent OF the po
tato crop put up in banks rotted be
fore the banks we're opened. Three
fourths Of the remainder were injur
cd, and less than 2b per cent Of the
original crop could be sold. These
potatoes brought low price, averag
ing 40 to so cents a bushel.
"About five years ago the depart
ment Of agriculture perfected a pro
cess for the curing OF sweet potatoes
The main features of this process are
the closing Of the pores. the proven
ton OF rot and the surety Of a good
potato for period OF many months
Boon afterward the extension depart
ment OF the Texas institution begar
the building OF these plants In Texas
but never until last year was much
Roadway made.
But results for the year 1916 prov
ed the great value OF the process tc
the Texas farmer. Instead OF the av
erage price OF 40 cents at diggIns
time he got si.25 for his cured pota
toes. The cost OF the process Is 12Is
cents bushel. And his clear profit
on the bushel is in the neighborhood
OF 72h cents. There are many indi
vidual farmers In the state who could
well afford to build such a plant on
their farms. and every town and city
should provide one for the potato
growers Of the community. The cur
Ing plants mean money. and biz
money. to those who have them and
use them"

House OF Representatives, now and
for several years past, he will under.
stand why the presidential influence
has been growing. II senator's and
representatives have been content to
register the DEGREES OF the dictator
and have abdicated their Independent
functions. II is because public opin.
lon is almost invariably on the side
Of the President and not Of Congress.
And. while there is a survival of the
monarchial instinct in that. the real
explanation is that so many men OF
mediocre ability are sent to both
