REMINISCENCE OF POE.

The painter, William Sartan, contributed some
recollection Of Edgar Allan Poe to the Art World ::
His biographer, Grswod has sandered him
as Incorporate. My father said this was not
true, and he was most temperate in drinking 1t
is considerable confirmation Of this that Poe
was a model Of punCtuality in his reviewing and
other work for the magazines during all the en-
suing 10 years Of his life which comprises his
literary career In 1887 he moved to New York
and after Il year to Philadelphia where he wrote
some Of his finest stories. For much Of his lit
erary career he was half starving. His labor
over his writings Is shown, no doubt with some
eXaggeratlon however, in his article The Phlloso-
ply Of Composition, written shortly after the
enumerates some Of his articles Of faith such as
Beauty is the legitimate province Of the poem
it is pure and intense elevation Of the soul, not
of the intellect nor the heart
"But except for these intermittent indulgences
his addiction to stimulants must have been gross
ly exaggerated by his biographer Griswold whom
my father has said he had personally seen on
quite bad terms with Poe. My fathers acQuaInt-
ance with him was the more close In the latter
years Of his life and, as his statements were most
positive, these derogatory stories must be taken
with u grain Of salt The account / have given

1--WE Want No Praise"
I'VE Of the Alaska service are helping to bear
the white mans burden; we do not claim to be
miniStering to a dying race; we want no praise as
helpers of the weak or as ministers to the down
trodden who are dying in filth and degradation.
We do not allow anyone to class us in these cate
gOries. That class of work is entirely human-
tartan and is properly the duty of the missionary
organizations. But as representatives of the gov
ernment we claim the right Of our service to exist
because we are developing the resources Of north
ern Alaska just as much as any man with pick
and pan We are adding to the wealth of the ma
ton just as much and as surely as any proSpector
or trailmaker We are making country produc

paign to enlist the support of all farmers in the
work Of growing greatly increased crops Keep
every acre working this summer" is a campaign
slogan which is heard in all of the great farming
states. The result will be that in the fall the
farmers will harvest peanut bean, buclwheat
potato and other "catch crops" departure in
the history Of agriculture According to present
indications, the potato crop will be nearly 2OO-
100000 bushels larger than ever before while
prodigouS quantities Of peanuts and beans will
be available for food products in the fall and
during 1918.
The mobilization of the farms for war service
has been conducted along many lines Of service
Close coordination between all branches of the
industry has given tremendous impetus to the
campaign to Increase the nations food supply.
Travellers who pass through the middle West
this year will see scenes along railroad property
comparable to those in Europe, where the farm
erS have been cultivating such idle ground for
years. In some states, notably Iowa and Kansas
well-deined steps have been taken to encourage
the planting of certain useful crops along the
roadsideS. Iowa has more than 100000 acres of
unused land along its public highways which
could be drafted for this purpose, while Kansas
has more than 10000 acres according to a recent
survey
1t is safe to say that virtually every acre Of
