BUMPER CROP OF
 POTATOES IS INDICATED.
So the Price Ought to Be Unusually
 Cheap This Year.

That 1t will be possible for the thrifty householder to put iI the cellar a supply of potatoes sufficient to with -stand long siege of winter and, at a price which will not be a heavy drag on the family pocketbooB is indicated by reports from the farm districts ad- jacent to Norwich. The first diggings in the many well titled fields indicate a bumper crop later on when all the tubers nave been forked and hauled from the hills and furrows and the price-well, the big growers say the cost of a bushel of potatoes should not exceed SC cents, and on orders of 10 bushels and more the quotations may be 75 cents or less per bushel.
 Louis Rieger and son of Waterford planted 5e bushels of seed potatoes in the spring and they estimate a crop in excess of 700 bushels. Tie potatoes so far dug are of large size, free from grub hole, sun O. rot spots. and they are ready for the bins at present. They specialized in Early Rose and Green Mountain varieties.
 At the Bella Pratt farm in Salem all previous records for a potato crop are said to have been broken. The samples of Irish Cobblers brought to New London by the farm superinten- dent are said by experts to be the best. showing in many years.

HAS NO POWER
 TO SELL WOOL
For Any But Red Cross and Navy
 League Work.

The National Service League wishes to correct a somewhat general misap- prehension that has arisen as to the purchasing of wool to be used for knit tins. The league has no power to sell any wool for any but Red Cross and Navy League work. Every pound of wool sent to them Is charged to their account and must be returned to either Red Cross or Navy League to the same amount as finished articles. Thus it may readily be seen that none of it can be sold for other than this work and no personal knitting can be done with this material as the wool is supplied below cost. It would also not be fair to the merchants to undersell or compete with them in any way. It is only at the call of the T.. $. government that the Red Cross and the Navy League are carrying on this great piece of work and Norwich's quota of 2100 sets calls for great ef- fort on the part of her loyal women. There will be wool supplied for this number of sets but 1t can be used only for this purpose and no other. The two organizations named must be the distributing agents as they have means of knowing where the most ur- gent needs lie.

ating class of the William rcnn High School

the first time in the history of Philadelphia

one girls who did not know who wrote
them.
One girl told how she had learned to make
her own and her mothers clothes and to
renovate old clothes and make hats. thus
reducing the family expenses. Another told
how she had been able to complete her edu-
cation, as result of the information she
secured in home economics. because she
could take care OF the hous,. -eprng IL, nuu,a
and go to school at the same time Others
told what the reading of the newspapers.
as urged by the history teacher, had meant
to them and especial emphasis was placed
on the good done by the salesmanship
course, which taught girls that the dreaded
monster tthe publc) is made up of human
beings, and gave the girls self-confidenCe,
poise and ability to meet people.
Diplomas in the general commercial. col
legs preparatory. craftsmanship, art and
home economies courses were awarded
to the February graduating class by will
liam d. Lewis principal of the school.
