Suggest Potato Stocks
Be Now Transferred

To offset the usual shortage Of good
potatoes in the spring before the new
Southern crops get on the market, the
Bureau Of Markets advises holders OF
potato stocks TO transfer some Of their
supply from common TO cold Storage.
They should be stored in bags, boxes
or crates and piled so a. 20 permit
free circulation OF air when placed in
cold storage.
The results OF the first food survey
Of the Department OF Agriculture
show increased stocks OF salt hSh in
August 1917, over the supply at the
same time last year. The total re-
ported is liz, 900, 600 pounds, an increase
Of over 6 per cent OF this supply,
20 per cent is said 70 be held by pack
ers and wholesale deslerH 30 per cent
by storage warehouses, per cent by
general wholesale dealers, and per
cent by retail dealers.

Financial NeD Nth Stock Market Quotation

between all the citizens. some Of them
men who work, as much as eighteen
hours day as managers OF industries.
also between aggregations Of capital
which are necessary for the mainte-
nance Of great industries. and the
skilled artisans.
That from another point Of view Is
not unlike the position recently at
tributed to Mr.. Schwab and to Col
Thompson. But IL individualism. as
we now know 1t. IL speedily to be
a thing OF the past. Mr.. Perkins Is
persuaded that the opportunities for
the individual devoted to public serv-
Ice and yet reasonably intent upon se-
curing a competence for himself and
his family are to be greater than they
ever have been before.
There is to be opportunity for crea-
tive work which represents the high
est order of .individualism. But the
work must be subordlnated to the
general interests Of the community and
not made exclusively the means
whereby a man can accumulate such
fortune a. win enable him to be num-
bered among the millionaires.
That men OF the character Of Mr..
schwab and Col Thompson and Mr..
Perkins should now be discussing these
things and that q man OF the ability
and high service of Mr.. Easley should
join in the discussion Indicate that
some Of the great minds of the coun-
try are now thinking OF conditions
which win be established soon after
the European war Is ended.
There should be numbered among
those who are discussing these great
questions DR.. Nicholas Murray Butler,
president Of the Columbia University,
whose recent address In st. Louis upon
after-the-war conditions has already
attracted nationwide attention.
