count of themselves and their church
and Sunday school The convention

which all the activities of the church
and Sunday school pertaining toyoung
people are given prominence and
many of the noted speakers and, in
structors along these lines were pres
ent. 1t was ten days institute, AND
the Tama church was represented by
about dozen each of boys and girls
from the Sunday school.
They lived in tents, did their own
cooking and all had an enjoyable out
ing as we'll as had the benefits of the
convention, which is much like big
chautauqua meeting.
The Tama girls won the basketball
tournament and both single and
double championship in tennis. Miss
Ilene Mills won the singles over some
of the crack tennis players of the state
and Misses Margaret Moore and Ethel
Wentworth won the doubles in closely
contested sets over some strong teams.
The boy Scouts, under the leader
ship of Howard Coe, also made fine
showing.
The Tama contingent gave reals
tic Indian pow-wow that attracted no
little attention and were prominent in
all the activities of the convention.

Company II of the Third Iowa lnfan-
try, designated as the Fifty-First Iowa
United States Volunteers prior to the
Encouragement and REORGANIZATION of
the Iowa National Guard, a few years
ago, has some" reputation to live up
to, in the present conflict. As the
Fighting Fifty-First" this regiment
was in the principal engagements OF
the Philippine campaign of the Span
ish-American War, fought in 1898.
Company F of the Fifty-First, the
Oskaloosa militia organization, saw ac

the command of Captain William FL.
Heating, the guard made an enviable
record.
The Fifty-First fought at San Rogue
on Feb. 9th, at Quinqua on April 23rd'
at Pulilan on April oath: at Calumpit
on April 25th; at San Tomas on May

TUBERS CONE: BACK
HUGE CROP OF POTATOES RE.
STORES THEM TO DIET.

The huge potato crop which the Fed
eral forecast indicates will be produc
ed in the United States this year
means that this important food staple
will be cheaper, and makes it possible
says the United States Department OF
Agriculture, for American families
that had to cut down on potato con.
sumption because of high prices to re.
store the tuber to a prominent place
on their bill of fare.
The Department forecast, based on
reliable estimates from all parts OF
the country, placed the total potato
yield at more than ACT million bush
els as compared with 225 million in
1916 and $50 million in 1915. Potatoes
of the current season are already in
the market in large quantities, aHd
since the early harvested tubers can
not be kept easily, should be eaten
more abundantly now if spoilage is to
be avoided.
Next to the breadstuffs, potatoes are
the most important food crop of the
western nations, the Department
points out. They are all the more i'm.
portant now that the worlds wheat
supply is short, since they furnish
starch, the principal food element con
tributed by bread, and so may be con-
tributed in part for bread.
