Sugar Planters Should Grow
Feedstufs

In 1904 one hundred pounds Of sugar
would purchase 9.12 bushels of corn or
14.7 bushels of oats. In 1913 it would
purchase 5.13 bushels of corn or 8.S
bushels of oats. At the present time it
will purchase only 3.42 bushels Of corn
or &C. bushels Of oats.
The foregoing figures, compiled by
Dean w. R. Dodson, of the College of
Agriculture, L. S. T., prove clearly that,
although sugar has advanced in price,
it has not advanced in proportion to the
principal feedstuffs on the plantations
where it is produced.
In other words the sugar planter can
now buy only half as much feed with
his sugar as he could at average normal
prices.
This emphasizes two important things
, said Dean Dodson: first, that the sugar
planter should make q special effort to
raise all the corn he needs, even should
it he a poor corn year; and second, sug'
ar is not so high as some would have the
public believe it is.
1t will be necessary to take into con-
sideration the purchasing power of sug.
ar measured in terms Of corn, oats, hay
lard, bacon, flour cotton goods and
leather when further consideration is
given to fixing Of the price of sugar
but in the meantime, it behooves the
planter to try to raise enough feed tt
make it unnecessary to use sugar to pay
for corn, oats, or hay.-L. s. U. Pres

during the early stages of train
ing. The physical training of the
older men will come at just the
time in their lives to be the most
beneficial, training directors here
believe. The average man above
30, they say, is likely Ito give UP
sports and outdoor activities just
at that time in his life when he
needs them most. The building of
their systems through army work,
officers say, will add many years
to the average life of these men

Austin Hughes, the Metropolitan

He comes from the Naval Training

Hughes will carry out the general
program of camp singing as es-
tablished by predecessors here and
which has since been adopted as
the general model for army camps.
In addition he will plan for some
innovations as "gloom chasers"
for rockies.

Observe These Rules
and be Patriotic

Use cereals (meal, cereal break
fast foods, etc. freely, taking
pains to prepare them with great
care and to vary the kind used
from day to day if necessary to
keep people from firing of them.
Remember that quart of whole
milk a day for each child, to be
used as beverage and i'm cookery,
is not too much.
Try to make the dishes served
of such size that there will be
enough to satisfy the appetite OF
the family and no unnecessary
table and plate waste.
Do not be above noticing wheth-
er anything disable Ills thrown away
with the garbage, which always
shows how thriftily food is used in
a household.
Many inexpensive materials can
be made attractive and the diet
can be pleasantly varied by wise
use of different f1avorings.

Frosted Potatoes
Make Good Starch

Frosted and decayed potatoes
have been found in trials conduct
Eed by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture to be entirely
capable of producing acceptable
and frequently normal yields of
clean, white starch of good quail

ITO possess a potential value for the
production of sizing starch APP
IproNimating that of the stock at
present used for. this purpose. The
mechanical difficulties in recovery
from decayed pulp are sometimes
greater and sometimes less THAN
from normal stock. Modified pro-
cedure adapted TO these abnormal
pulps doubtless could be devised,

there seems to be mo reason why
the present method might not be
applied profitably in the meantime
