Even as It is, sweet potatoes are, In
point of value, the second most i'm
portant truck crop In the United
States being exceeded only by Irish
potatoes. The production. however,
can be increased almost indefinitely,
for there are millions of acres Of
cheap cut-over lands in the south well
adapted to the crop. BY adopting the
improvements suggested the demand
can be increased proportionately. for
an attractive product can then be plac-
ed on the market thruOut the year, in
stead Of for short season only, as Is
now the case in many sections. 1t
must be remembered, too, that the val
ue of sweet potatoes as feed for live
stock is not yet generally understood.
to bushels are the equivalent of a
bushel of corn for hogs and in con-
nection with rich concentrates the
potatoes are q good feed for cattle.
On light soils that produce from 20 to
25 bushels of corn, the same care and
attention will return 100 10 200 bu-
shells of sweet potatoes. Finally, 1t is
not unlikely that by artificial drying a
product may be obtained which will
keep as long as is desired at a COM
paratively low cost. Government ex-
periments along this line, however.
have not been carried far enuf as yet
to recommend drying on commercial
scale.

STORY OF THE
SPANISH WAR

Walter b. Montgomery and a man
whom he met during his Pixies Peak
Rock Island Ocean 60 Ocean finance
campaign, and a certain Troy woman,
are the only ones who know a story
which sounds like a motion picture
tale. The only difference this and the
average motion picture story of war
and romance with which this story
deals. is that in motion pictures the
soldier usually marries the girl with
whom he has been corresponding, but
in this story of real life instead of reel
life, is that the girl refused to marry
the soldier after he had returned from
the war. When the special train Of
soldiers were passing thru Troy at the
outbreak OF the Spanish -American-w war
in 1895, like all other towns, Troy sent
its representative body of men, wom-
EN- and young girls to the depot. From
car crowded with soldiers enroute to
the Philippines. a cartridge was thrown
out with a name written on a slip Of
paper inside. A Troy girl picked up
the cartridge and read thereon: "If a
girl finds this and writes me during
the war, I'll marry her on my return"
A correspondence between the ro-
mantle girl and the unknown hero fol-
lowed She pictured him as brave
and handsome. Perhaps he was both,
but however. after Funston had yank-

WARTIME THRIFT WILL
NOT BRING HARD TIMES

WASHINGTON, D. C.-There is no
ground for fear that wartime thrift will
bring hard times" declared Director
w. S. Giffordg of the council of ma
tional defense, In a statement. "As
matter of fact the necessity for thrift
is not for purposes of individual saw
ing and the cessation OF spending but
literally in order that the demand may
be reduced to the limits of possible
supply. 1t merely means readjust-
ment, The whole country is organiz-
ed on peace basis. 1t must be read
justed to a war basis" said Director
Clifford. 1T will mean that less mon
ey will be spent for unnecessary things.
But far more money will be spent for
necessities Some unnecessary lines of
industry may be discontinued. But for
every man that may be thrown out of
work thru the discontinuance Of the
manufacture of a luxury, many Jobs
will be open. War time thrift meaI B
the diversion of all the nations efforts
toward things necessary for maintain
ing the nations life and winning the
war. In the readJustment. some few
may suffer temporary loss; but the
vast majority will profit materially and
morally. For men in certain lines Of
industry at such a time as this to raise
the cry of possible hard times Is a dis
play of unpatriotic thoughtlessness. 1t
requires only a second serious thought
to reveal the truth that the Industrial
strength of the nation will be strain
ed, instead of being relaxed. In addi-
ton, the enormous demand for labor
on the farms would absorb any pos
sible excess. Ship-building work alone
will require so much labor that the
possibility discontinuance of the
structural building operations In the
country is at hand. The removal Of a
million or more men from the busi-
ness life OF the country obviously
means more work for those behind the
army. This government and the al
lies will be spending billions in the pro-
duction OF war materials, which reach
practically every branch of industry"

Sent Him His Commission

Once on a time in response to an
advertisement a practical joker sent
a liquor firm the names of all the
temperance fanatics and cranks in
his vicinity, and they were sent price
lists. At the end OF a year the joker
received a check for $50 from the
liquor firm as his commission on sales
effected from the names on his sub
mitted list.-Orono News.

had found the lady of his dreams and
letters, but she was disappointed In
his appearance. She wouldn't intro
duce hi INTO her friends. and to all his
pleadings of marriage said that her
papa would not allow her to marry.
SO the girl eventually married anoth-
er man, a good man too. and the man
married another woman. He secured
position with the government and
was later sent to the penitentiary for
embezzlement. Mr.. Montgomery says
he is the only person who knows who
the girl is, but that he would prefer
to go to war rather than tell her
name.-Troy Chief.

We notice where many small town

one bit-they are sure to get their

a gatling gun than some OF the pious-
faced hypocrits that sit on the front

In the face.-Milan Standard.
