Poor Year For SpudS
Says Farmer Gibbons

Bartholomew Gibbons says. and
you know what potato raiser he
is, that he fears that this is not a
potato year.
He will not plant them until the
quaking aspens show green leaves,
and they are so backward this year
that only a very late fall can
mature potatoes.
Mr.. Gibbons thinks that small
tract potatoes are watered too
much, causing a rank growth of
green vines with tubers that are
small and few.
Potatoes planted too early throw
up feeble sprout and produce a
poor crop. Mr.. Gibbons stirs the
earth about the plants and between
the rows many times in a season
the oftener, the better. Earth
allowed to dry and bake forms
innumerable small canals, allowing
profuse evaporation by capillary
attraction.
Last summer Mr.. Gibbons hoed
and cultivated his plants when
the ground was SO dry that clouds
of dust enveloped him. But he
knew that by agitating the surface
moisture could be conserved and
the crop saved.
There is plenty of moisture
now in the ground to raise ssfine
potatoes if they are scientifically
cultivated" says Mr.. Gibbons.

Two New Orders of
Honor Instituted
BY English Ruler

LONDON, July %. Correspond.
ence.)-Two new orders have been in
stituted by King George In recognition
of the manifold services, voluntary and
other, that have been rendered in con-
nection with the war. The first is
the "order of the British Empire" con-
sisting of five classes to be given to
women as well as men, the first two
classes carrying the honor OF knight
hood for men and in the case of WON
en-, the privilege of prefixing the title
Dame" to their names. The five
classes are:
For men-Knights of the Grand
Cross, Knights Commander, Command
ers, Officers, Members.
For women-Dames of the Grand
Cross. Danes Commanders, Command.
ers. Officers, Members.
The second Order, will be entitled
"Order Of the Companions of Honor
consisting OF one class only. for both
women and men. The order carries
no title or precedence and will be con.
ferred on a limited number of persons
for whom special distinction seems to
be the most appropriate form of recog-
milton. The Prince of Wales has been
appointed Grand Master of the Order
The badge of the Order of the
British Empire for the first three
classes is silver gilt cross. enamelled

secretaries.
Following the keynote of Mr. Wilson, other
speakers of prominence in the realm of city man.
agement went on to relate just how far the peo-
pie had got into this new government with ex-
amples from the experience of various cities.
The remarkable experiences of Flint, Michi-
gan, were told and shown by motion pictures by
Daniel A. Reed, director of the Chamber Of Com
merce of that city. Mr.. Reeds experiences were
typical, he said, of many other cities OF the
country where great civic improvements have
been wrought by the cultivation of municipal
thought.
Closely related were the addresses Of George
A. Belamy, field secretary of the National Play
ground and Recreation Association, and D. Frank
Garland, director of Public Welfare in Dayton,
Ohio. Dayton has perfected a system of commu-
nifty charity which is tending to reduce the need
for charity and improve the material and social
conditions of the city, according to MIR. Garland.
The city has no patents on the system and offers
it to the world. Mr.. Bellamy declared that 1.-THE
future welfare of the nation depends upon the
physical and moral welfare of the growing gener-
alton; this more particularly in war time, and in
the poorer districts of the cities this only be
had through the playground"
