her eyes were filled With tears.

Fried dasheens were served to
callers in Judge Sticks chambers to-
day. They looked like French fried
potatoes. They were meally, firm
but soft, and had a flavor like that
of a weIl-bred Irish spud.
The dasheen halls from China. In
the Orient it is grown so extensively
that regular potatoes haven's a
chance. Someone imported a few
and found they would grow in the
sandy loan Of the gulf coast. It is
not believed they will grow in the
north, but they should flourish in
nearly every state south of the Ma
son and Dixon line.
why haven't they been on the
market befOre?" Judge Stelk was
asked.
Why did the tomato grow for
centuries before people started eat

TejOined the judge. why are there
many things common articles Of food
in other countries that are not heard
Of here? Agricultural convenience,
economic necessity and Psychology

Enthusiastically to the dasheen. If

be made, dasheens will be sold in
quantities in Chicago this summer,

DISCOVERED! a SUBSTITUTE
FOR SPUDS-AND IT WILL BE
A HEAP CHEAPER

A HEAP CHEAPER
A substitute for the potato is being
grown with such success in Southern
Alabama that people down in that
part of Dixie are worrying not at all
about the high cost Of spuds. Ar
Tangements are today being made
with local commission dealers to in
tTOduCe the new tUber to Chicago
this summer.
It looks like a beet, tastes like a
potato and is called a dasheen. It
grows in the ground with a leaf and
stem above that resembles the leaf
of an elephant ear plant. The leaf
may be used in salads or as a sub
stitute for lettuce. The long roots of
the tuber are an excellent substitute
for asparagus.
Judge John Stelk is the Christoph-
er Columbus of the dasheen. He
heard Of it from his brother, w. F.
Stelk, plantation owner Of Foley,
Ala.
Fried, it tastes just as good as the
finest Idaho potatoes" w. F. wrote
the judge. Baked, it is delicious. It
has a pleasant taste when eaten raw.
Then the roots and leaves make
savOry dishes. I will send you a
few"
The Judge didn't wait for the send
ings. He packed his grip, asked
Chief Justice Harry Olson for a
three-weeks' leave of absence and
boarded the Dixie flyer for AIabam.
If there was anything to this dasheen
thing, the judge wanted to know
about it in time to do some good with
the next crop. If a substitute just
as good as the old Irish white can be
grown for so cents a bushel WeD,
what's the use Of poor people having
to do without potatoes because they
can't afford IS cents a peck.
When Judge SteIk came back to
Chicago he brought some dasheens
