Society OF La Paz' by it's president, some
interesting facts concerning the potato
production in certain countries of South
America are presented. 1t seems that at
the weekly and annual potato fairs in
many important trading towns on the pla-

rieties of potatoes the report Identifies

Getting Rid of Flat-F oot

THAT fiat feet can IN many cases be

the results of cure tried out at Fort
Ethan Allen, Vermont, according to "The

cent were returned to the ranks cured.
The treatment recommended is as follows
The feet and legs should be free Shoes and

"At the beginning, fifteen twenty min

stronger, full half hour may be devoted to

outlined above should be carried out each
