The speaker did not attempt in any
way to belittle the gravity of the Rus

point out that the Maximalist revolt
was a revolt Of few against the
many.
'"The majority Of the Russians who
followed Kerensky since the Roman

said, care heart and soul with the
Kerensky government"

.s.3KEEPING SWEET POTATOES !.

'5 4. 81. j. !. +. !. !. !. !. !. !.
The following interesting item with
Ssssarence, to the keeping of sweet po-
tatoes Isl sent out by the Yorkvilie
correspondent Of the> Charleston
News, and Courier:
Isaac p. Boyd, superintendent of
the county home of York county, is
farmer Of no mean ability, and he
Is doing his bit to win the war for
America. Besides being one Of the
most successful truck farmers in
York county, Mr.. Boyd has made n
discovery In the way Of saving sweet
potatoes through the winter which Is
as effective as 1t is simple, and which
requires no expensive special build
ings or special cellar to save the
tubers, which heretofore have caused
lots OF worry to farmers who would
keep the sweet potato for consump-
tion through the winter months.
Mr.. Boyd when in town showed a
sample Of sweet potatoes that were
dug year ago, and that had been
saved in perfect condition by his
method that Is in use at the county
home. Instead Of putting the pota-
toes away In "hacks" or pits, or In
dry cellars, as do many potato grow
ers, Mr.. Boyd when he digs his crop
simply has his children and other
help to wrap each Individual tuber in
piece OF newspaper torn to conven-
lent size, and then packs the potatoes
away In barrels or boxes. or piles
them on floors wherever it may be
convenient to do so. The potatoes so
packed, away keep in perfect condi-
ton for months, and the specimen he
was showing to-day was still in good
condition and fit for rood.
At first thought this method might
seem to be rather tedious one, but
1t Is hardly any more trouble than
Is the process Of putting the potatoes
In "hacks" and running the risk Of
losing the whole crop. Mr.. Boyd's
method has been tried by him thor
oughly and it works to perfection.
Another wrinkle in regard to sweet
potatoes that Mr.. Boyd~works in get
ting sweet potatoes for next years
crop Is this: Along in the middle of
the summer he clips cuttings from
his vines and sticks these in the
ground, and these clippings will at
once start growing, and will produce
tubers of sufficient size to use for
bedding to furnish slips" for next
years potato. crop.
