HOW THE DUST GETS IN

When the barometer falls the air
around expands into a large volume,
and the air inside the bookcase, the
clothes closet and the cupboard also
expands and forces itself out at every
minute crevice. When the barometer
rises again the air inside the cup
board, as well as outside, condenses
and shrinks and the air is forced back
into the cupboard to equalize the
pressure, and along with the air in
goes the dust. The smaller the cre-
vice the stronger the jet of air, the
farther goes the dirt. Witness the
dirt tracks so often seen in imperfect
ly framed engravings or photographs.
Remember, whenever you see the ba-
rometer rising, that an additional
charge of dust is entering your cup
board and bureau drawers.

EVANSVILLE RESIDENTS
GROW SPJJDS IN BARRELS


Evansville, Ind.-Hundreds of fam
lilies in Evansville have barrels in
their back yards and gardens in which
they are growing potatoes. The farm
ers living around Evansville also have
taken up the fad, and in driving
through the country one will find doz-
ems of barrels in many barn lots, all
planted in potatoes. Those who have
tried this experiment say it is a great
success. Robert Hall, of 1923 East
Illinois street, says he has raised from
two to three bushels of potatoes in a
single barrel.
An ordinary sugar barrel, costing 25
cents, is used. The bottom is knocked
out of the barrel, which is inserted in
the ground to the depth of about three
or four inches, and then the potatoes
are planted and covered, as under
ordinary conditions. After the pota-
toes have come up two n three inches
they are covered with dirt again, but
the tops all remain out. When they
grow three or four inches more they
are covered again, but the tops will
remain out. This is repeated until
the plants reach the top and the bar
rel has been filled with good, rich
dirt. The plants then are permitted
to die and late in the fall the barrel
is opened. It is said that for each
time the potato plants r covered
there will be a layer of fine potatoes

AMERICAN WAR LOCOMO-
TIVES FOR FRANCE

The committee on public informa-
ton issues the following:
The first locomotive for American
~war-service railroads in France was
completed in 20 working days, and
engines of this type are now being
turned out at the rate of about 80
per day. About $50 of these locomo-
tives and over 5000 standard-gauge
freight cars are on order. Other nar-
row-gauge equipment for Transporter
ton along the battle front are also
on order, and additional orders for
both narrow and standard-gauge
equipment r likely.
First Order Placed July 10
The first order for war locomotives
was placed with the Baldwin Locomo-
tive Co. of Philadelphia, on July IS
and the first engine completed on
August 9. This is in spite of the fact
that the. boiler is construed specially
for this type of engine and is what is
called a "superheater." Otherwise,
the locomotive is much similar to To-
comotives built by the Baldwin Co.
for the English government. 1t is
not the most powerful type used in
the United States, but on a road
where the heaviest engines would
haul a train of about 80 loaded
freight cars this war locomotive
would haul 60 loaded cars. Like all
the equipment, it is painted battleship
gray and bears the letters "U. S. A.
for United States Army. The loco
motive weighs about 166,400 pounds
with the tender about 275,000.
Box Cars of Large Type.
The box cars for the American
lines in France have about three time:
the capacity of the standard-gaug'
box cars used by the French railwa!
until recently. They have the SAM
coupling equipment, etc., as the French
rolling stock, so as to be interchange
able with it. The iron railing which
runs the length of the a along tn
top is used to throw a t%arpaulin owe
to protect the contents of the ca
from the weather. The inside lengtl
of the car is SO feet and it's capacit,
33 tons.

zero on October S. There were 2
clear days, 4 partly cloudy and /
cloudy day. The duration of regis
tered sunshine was 47.12 hours of
80.7 hours the sun was above the hori-
zon, making 500 of possible sunshine.
The wind force was gentle to moder-
ate and variable in direction. There
was a moderate gale from the north,
Tuesday night at II o'clock lasting
for n hour. The highest wind We
locity for five minutes was SO miles
an hour from the north.
All outdoor operations made excel
lent progress. The early winter wheat
is coming up well. The soil is in ex-
cellent condition for blowing and
much is being done. Late potatoes
continue to make excellent growth.

JUST ADVERTISE

As a rule, a mans a fool,
When he thinks he's very wise,
AS when his house is very full,
Can't see why he should advertise.
When his house has not enough
Guests to pay, this rule applies.
''Times too hard; l can't afford,
Really, now to advertise.
If he'd just reverse the rule,
Loosen up and specialize,
Keep his house in public print.
He'd make it pay to advertise.
And keep his house full all year round,
His bank roll would be twice its
size,
But he must keep the practice up,
And advertise--just advertise.
