A Bureau of Labor Informa.
 ton for Farmers.

The farmers of this county should all become familiar with the fact that when they need extra labor they may enroll their names with Mir. George Elder. county clerk of Chicot county. for he will also enroll the names of laborers who want work on farms and it will thus be easier for men and jobs to get together.
 If farmers are too busy to make a trip to the court house they can tele- phone their names in. and Tn this case they should give the number of their phone and their post office address so that laborers hunting for work may find them easily. The laborer. too, may enroll by telephone if II is not convenient to enroll in person.
 This plan of mobiizing farm labor was decided upon by the State Council of Agriculture. Other states are doing similar work. and the United States Department of Agriculture is deing all that Is possible to persuade the various states to adopt systematic plans with the object of making 1t easy for the farmer to get help and for the jobless man to get work on farms.

SWEET POTATO 4
 VALUABLE FOOD
Right Kind of Storage House Essen, tiaI and Should Be Built Early to
 Have Ready When Needed.
By J. S. Knox. Horticulturist with the Extension Division, University
 of Arkansas.
Build Storaoe houses Early.

Possibly there is no other vegeta- ble so generally grown in Arkansas as is the sweet potato, and rightly so, be- cause 1t is one of the most valuable vegetables which we can grow for food It is a fact that diseases cause some loss every year, but nine-tenths of the potatoes which go to waste do so because of improper stor- age conditions The right kind of a storage house is essential and should be built early in order to have it ready by the time the potatoes are dug.
 Successful Storage Depends Upon
 Several Factors.
 Successful storage may be said to depend upon several factors-Q ma turity of potatoes at digging. (2) proper drying out of the potatoes shortly after they are dug. and (3) freedom from disease and serious bruises when placed in storage. If pc tatoes are dug when they are imma- ture 1t requires longer time to dry them than when they are fully mature. Al the time of harvest all potatoes showing evidence Of disease should be piled to themselves and fed to hogs or other farm animals. One diseased DO tato placed in storage bin may be the cause of a half dozen others rot ting. In digging. use every possible care to prevent the hruising or skin ming of the potatoes, since every wound thus made opens a way for dis ease 10 enter the potato.
 The Pit or Bank Method of Storing
 the Crop.
 For the small home grower this method is very satisfactory. To build drained location. and, several weeks before the potatoes are to be dug. build a shed The soil under the shed should be a number Of inch =. say foot. higher thar the aoil on the outside This lessens the chances of moisture rising up 10 the potatoes Make the soil where the potatoes are to he piled into T plate or saucer shape. then pile over this layer Of dry straw or leaves four to six inches deep Now construct two boyes of lx6 material and bore two inch holes in them on all sides al in tersais of IS inches to two feet. These should be placed. one horizontally across the bed and the other joined to it. but placed in vertical position. ffst | way for air from one box 10 the other.
 Pile Potatoes Carefully.
 AS soon as the potatoes are dug and have dried while they should be carried to the storage pit and carefully piled in cone shape about the box ing. IL is though, best not 10 put over 10 to 50 bushels in the same pit. When the potatoes are placed in the bank. simply cover over with light covering of straw or leaves and allow them to remain in this way for ten days or two weeks in order to thor oughly dry out II Is during this dry ing or sweating process that so many of our potatoes rot. AS the weather turns colder layer of boards or corn stalks should he placed over the straw and thin covering of dirt placed over this. By the time the weather be comes freezing cold the ends of the ventilator boxes should he closed and the dirt piled on until it Is four to six inches deep.

Wood Storehouses.

The man who grows potatoes on a should build regular storage house. The wooden or frame structures are by far the most com mon in this state. They are built with double walls, having a six or eight-inch space between the walls, This space may be filled with dry sawdust. or if made practically air tight. may he left with the space unified. If the floor of the building is made of concrete, so much the better. Bins it the houses are of different sizes. hut pos sibiy about as good size as any would be about six feet long. four feet wide. and two and one-half to three feet deep Bins are placed one above another. with possibly six-ineh space between them. When built in small sizes this way the air can circulate more readily among the potatoes. and damage done by bruising ia not so great as when the bins arc made eight to ten feet square.

 tie floor When the potatoes are placed in the house the temperature should be raised to so to s5 degrees and held thus for week or ten days for the purpose of drying out the sur plus moisture. If potatoes begin to sprout the temperature should he low cred to 65 to 70 degrees. The heating Is usually done by means Of wood stove. or, in the Fort Smith district by gas stoves.
