Burglar Has Bank Account.
The loot obtained by Peterson in
Seattle is valued at thousands of dol
lars. A transfer wagonfull Of stolen
goods, including clothing, cameras, re-
volvers, jewelry, suit cases, grips and
a varied assortment Of other articles
was taken from his rooms to police
headquarters. Later the Office was
stormed with victims Of Peterson's
operations.
Peterson said the thrill and excite
ment Of the game appeal strongly to
him but that he took up burglary as
regular business and determined to
make it a success and to proceed along
businesslike lines. When asked If he
thought his criminal operations were
worth while he replied: "Well, I've

and that he systematically and care

Peterson has been in Seattle since
last April and during this time has
robbed about 80 private residences and

cording to his story, he would rise at
the call of his alarm clock, at 1 80 in

The South doesn't need to learn
how to grow sweet potatoes, the spec

to produce large yields of this crop.
But the farmer must be impressed
with the necessity Of increasing his
acreage of this crop, and then, when
harvest comes, to prevent the enor-
nous loss from improper handling and
storing. The best way to keep sweet
potatoes is to store them in we'll
