POTATO ACREAGE
Increase SO Per Cent in Twenty
Years

Washington, Oct. THE yield Of
potatoes per acre is gradually in
creasing in this country, as shown by
the records Of the Bureau of Crop
Estimates of the United States De-
partment of griculture. During 1866
1874 the average annual yield per
acre was 81 bushels, but the average
markedly declined to 71.3 bushels in
1885-1894. Perceptible recovery was
made in the following ten-year period
and a much larger recovery, rising to
a new high-water mark, was reached
in 1905-1914, with its average yield
Of 81 bushels per acre.
In 20 years the productivity of the
average potato acre increased SO pei
cent. This increase is due to various
causes, among which are greater spe-
cialization of production, more inten-
sive treatment, and higher fertility
of the soil The ten-year average
yield of 81 bushels per acre in 1905
1914 was followed by 96.3 bushels in
1915, SO.5 bushels in the very low
year 1916, and 1908 bushels in 1917.
Compared with population, the
yieud of potatoes per acre declined
from 1S66-1874 to 1905-1914. The
gain of production per capita in re-
cent years has been more because OF
increased acreage than because of in
creased production per acre.

Especial to The Caledonian)

Especial to The Caledonian)
Montpelier, Oct. Tn connection
with the selling by the government
authorities wool which has been
boarded by O. C. Clement of Corinth
for over so years, where the authori
ties found an accumulation Of about
10000 cubic feet of wool estimated at
nearly 10000 pounds, some of which
had been damaged by moths and the
weather, and which he refused to
sell,-it E.ay be interesting to note
that the Vermont Committee on Pub
lic Safety endeavored to induce Mr..
Clement to sell this wool at market
price agreeing that the wool should
be sold without the payment of any
commission, and on MI. Clements re-
fusal to dispose of his wool on these
terms the Vermont Committee on
Public Safety reported the condition
to the authorities at Washington. Mr..
Clement was again advised that un-
| less he would consent to sell his wool
| it would be Communicated and that

Quoted from the price of the wool
Even unler these conditions MI. Gle
ment refused to sell his wool.

AIR RAIDS PUT
HUNS IN PANIC
Colossal Damage Caused in Cologne

Colossal Damage Caused in Cologne
The Hague, Oct 6-According to
reliable information from people on
the spot, the last raid on Cologne,
which lasted two hours, caused col
ossal damage. The Hoogstrausse IS
so destroyed that it is to a large
extent barricaded. Considerable hav-
oc was wrought near the Domplatz.
Recent informants from Germany
say that air attacks on German towns
are greatly undermining the morale
of the German people, and must
prove a great hindrance and delay IN
factories and industries of all kinds
AS soon as the air raid signal IS
given, all people, soldiers and civil
ians fee to cellars and nothing is
started again until the "all clear
signal is given. Panic-stricken peo-
pie fight each other in a scramble
for the cellars.
The depression among the popu-
lace is evident, and many no longer
care who wins, so long as the war
ends. Some are even glad to hear OF
allied victories. Cases of mutiny
are common, although they are hush
ed up Soldiers hate their officers, and
are beginning to show signs of revolt
at their treatment. Soldiers have
even bayonetted their officers, but
the authorities no longer dare to
shoot them, as they are too valuable
There are now many camps where
soldiers are shut up because they re-
fuse to fight, but the soldiers say
they would rather spend six months
in Jail than return to the front.

FOOD ADULTERATION
Has Become a Perfect Plague in
Germany Today

New York, Oct 7-Adulteration Of
food and profteering from the sale
of substitutes for food have become
a plague in Germany. This state
ment is made by The Chemical Insti-
tute of Leipsig and is published in
the Berlin Tageblatt.
DR.. Roehrig, writing the report for
the institute, said the mineralizing of
food-stutfs was increasing. Gypsum
and chalk are used to adulterate
flour, baking powder and spices. Saw
dust, straw-dust, and nutshell dust
are sold at the incredible prices as
food adulterants. Carpenters glue
is used in the manufacture of pud-
ding powder, and flour sweepings in
the baking of bread Foreign sub
stitutes found in the bread included
flax fabrics, cotton, wood pulp, straw
and sand.
The bread of one bakery contained
IS percent of copper. In pepper was
found "a percent of ashes and per-
cent of sand.
Some of the food profiteers are be-
ing sent to prison as well as being
fined. In one case reported by the
Tageblatt storekeeper in Dresden
was sentenced to one year in prison
and to pay a fine of 192,292 marks.

BIG HERDS CONE
World War Wastes Europc's
Meat Supply.
American Stock RaIsers Cooperate
With Food Administrator in Con-
seryation Measurea

II Is probable that Europe for many
years after the war will look TO n
great extent to America for Its meat
supply.
Europe's herds are dwindling under
wars demunds faster than they can be
replenished
When the German armies retired
from occupied portions of France and
Belgium approximately 1900. 900 head
of cattle were appropriated. This ad-
dition virtually safeguarded Germany
from cattle shortage other nations nov
suffer.
In England some 2.4Oo, 900 acres 81
grass lands have by compulsory meas
ures been forced into grain production,
thus reducing pasturnge and hay lands.
A declining scale of maximum meat
prices for live cattle was ordained In
England. as follows: For September,
Si7.76 per hundred pounds; October.
si72S; November and December.
3lG0S. and for January. sit4o. Tho
evident intent Of this measure wns TO
drive the tcef animals Into market az
soon as possible.
According to official French figures.
the cattle Of France have decreased TO
n total Of 1871 300 as compared with
1i.s0T, 900 In 1918. Today. due to lack
OF forage principally. France Is pro-
ducing only ole gallon of milk where
before the war Two and one-hslf gal
Ions were produced.
Meantime the United States food nd
ministration has taken steps 10 con-
serve our focks and herds and TO In
crease their numbers The stock breed
err Of this country show a disposition
To cooperate with the government In
this.
For many years II has been a prac-
tice among many OF the dairy people
Of this country To XIII male calves At
birth and In many instances the To-
males II not needed TO replenish their
herds rather than 20 10 the expense OF
maturing them into veal. The high
prices Of meat caused the virtual dis
continuance % this Killing. Another
encouraging fact is - per cent of
calves killed for veal this year were
males.
Somebody hns very sptly said TINT
the wars Of the world havo been won
With grease. meaning. that bacon and
farf have been as essential To success
In war as powder. which IL true.
The hogs Of Europe have been very
greatly sacrificed to present day needs.
This makes the American burden ell
the more heavy and makes doubly es-
scntial an Increased pork production
In this nation. In Italy grain Is now
forbidden to be fed to hogs. In Den
mark under recent order one-four,h
OF the hogs were ordered to be killed.
