Can Food at Home.

Vast amounts of edible corn,

country towns especially, there
is little or no profitable market

PLANT, PLANT, PLANT.
Sweet Potatoes as Well as Corn May be
Planted as Late as July.
West Raleigh, N. c.,
Nav 6, 1917.

May ., 1917.
For a. week l have tried to find
time to write an article urging
the farmers to plant heavily of
sweet potatoes. If the war con-
tinues for another year the pro-
duction of human food crops will
be a serious problem not only in
! the South but throughout the
world. The West as we'll as the
Northwest has annually been
supplying the South with hum
dreds Of millions of dollars
worth Of food necessities to feed
the people of the South, The
enormous quantities of food that
the United States have been
shipping to Europe must con-
tiuue, and hardships are inevita
bly, coming if the war continues
six months longer. There is no
crop grown in the South that will
furnish as much food value per
acre or so cheaply as will the
sweet potato. A dollars worth
Of sweet potatoes used as human
food has practically double the
food value of a dollars worth of
wheat and corn. An acre of av-
erage land in sweet potatoes will
produce more food than two
acres Of corn and more than four
4cres of wheat in the cotton belt.
Sweet potatoes may be planted
IS late as July and yield twice as
much human food as corn Oh
land Of average fertility. 1t is
the most important crop that the
South can now grow, and there
remains May, June and a part of
July in which this crop may be
planted.
The sweet potato has a higher
food value than the Irish potato,
and it is now too late to plant the
latter with any assurance of sue
cess, and then there is practical
iy no seed available. There is
ample sweet potato seed availa-
ble, and a bushel of sweet pota-
toes will produce plants enough
t. plant from six to ten times as
much land as bushel of Irish.
All acre of land that will pro-
duce Is or 20 bushels of corn, s
to II bushels of wheat, or $50 to
200 pounds Of lint cotton will
produce 50, and may produce 50
or 10 bushels of sweet potatoes:
depending upon the good prepa-
ton of the soil and good fertiji-
zers. No crop will yield so much
per acre of so high a food value
on so poor land as will this high
" nutritious root crop. Sweet
potatoes may follow the various
early truck and farm crops har-
vested in May and June, such as
cabbage, Irish potatoes, etc.,
small grain crimson clover, etc
In view of the scarcity of pot
ash [ would recommend for
sweet potatoes between 6 o and
1900 pounds of fertilizer ana,
lying s to 10 per cent of
phosphoric acid and 9 to 4
per cent of nitrogen. On
very thin land [ would use
the higher per cent of nitrogen,
and on better land the lower per

R0MANISM Wants State AID.
Doctrine Of Union Of Church and State to be
Revived Whenever and Wherever Possible.

On April 18th The Menace
published an extended article or
one of the issues involved in the
Bay State Constitutional Conven
ton. That this article showine 9
how to make Massachusetts
"3afe for democracy Was a veri
table bomb shell thrown into the
camp of Cardinal O'Connell and
his Roman Catholic Political
Machine, is clearly in evidence.
! Excepting the Christian Scien-
ce Daily Monitor, the Massa-
chusetts daily press respected
Rome's Index in a manner that
promised great things for the
cardinals machine. Rome ex-
| pected to secure an overwhelm-
ing ma jority of subservieut can
dldates who would oppose per
mittlng the citizens of Massa-
chusetts to enjoy the funda-
mental rights of a democratic
state that of voting on the
anti seCtarian Constitutional
Amendment, which has no
other purpose than to take
religion cut of politics and
render it impossible for any
church to loot the public
treasury for sectarian institu-
tions.
This great and vital issue, if
permitted to be freely discussed
IN the daily press, would ere this:
have been submitted to the peo-
pie Of massachusetts,. 1t is fav-
ored by all persons who favor
our Federal Constitutions doc
tr1ne OF absolute divorce of
church and state; by all persons
who wish to preserve the integ-
r1ty of the great princi pie that
no special favors are to be shown
to any church or faith. 1t is fa-
vored bv all patriots who do not
wish to see the public treasury
looted in the interest of any re-
l1;sous denomination, But it is
opposed by the sinister Roman
Catholic Political Machine in
the same spirit that Rome oppos-
es freedom of speech and press,
and all questions which run
counter to its plan for SUBSTITUTE
ing the papal for the democratic
theory of government.
Hence Rome for years,has striv
ell to censor this question, and
seldom has the papal Index been
more shame sully in evidence
than in regard to this very ques-
ton in the state of Massachusetts.
The Christian Science Monitor
has been the one honorable ex.
ceptlon in the daily press of the
Bay Stdte-a press so dominated
by the papal political machine
that this great fundamental, Wit
al, political, non-religous issue
has been reso.utely denied a full
and free disc ussion.
Rome can oe depended upon
to vote as the machine directs.
Her vote is practically unit on
all questions in which the hier-
archy is deeply interested. So
all wort well till Merace No. 314
reached NJ Massachusetts,, urging
! patriots to consult the Advisory
Committee at Room 3O3, Ire
mont Temple, for information
in regard to candidates who
! could be relied upon. Of the six

it was wise to support them. Oh

while information given for loca
candidates all over the state has

number of candidates who are

which the cardinal thus attacks
one Of the greatest and most fun

that has been held by our natip1

from the foundation of Our re puO-
llc--that OF keeping religion

bered, is nothing more or less
than an amendment designed to
take religion out of politics by
denying to any church the righi

The proposed amendment reads
as follows:
No law shall be passed respect

It is with reference to the
amendment that the cardinal
official organ says;
For some years a Cotcrle of
blgot5 have stormed the state
house demanding the enactment
of measures that are aimed Only
at thetare rights of Catholics.
Here is a bold and brazen dec
laration claiming the right Of
the Catholic church to loot the
public treasury. The cardinal S
organ further says:
Catholics do well at this time
to find out the record Of men
WHO seek the election as dele

As above mentioned, ten of the
seventeen candidates referred to
in the above black list. were tri-
unphantly elected in spite OF
Rome S bringing religion into
politics and denounouncing the
proposed amendment. whose
only purpose would be to take
eccleslastlclsm out of politics.
Rome with her greedy eyes, is
looking forward to the day when
she can loot the public treasury
fo- her sectarian instt, utions.
She wishes to get her hands in
to the treasury so as to receive
funds for those nurseries of sect
