Food Department Grades Potatoes.

Food Department Grades Potatoes.
A bomb was set off in agricultural
circles, when the order was issued
by the Food Department stating chat
all potatoes measuring under two
inches in diameter, should be classed
as seconds. A two inch potato is a
fair sized potato and heretofore has
been put with the firsts without
question. The new order how ever
is based upon standard Government
inspection, and there is no arguing
or getting away from it. Inasmuch
as potatoes will soon begin TO sprout.

them at once, even though the price

longs for the Greedy Fish.

The fish that swallows bait and hook
is not joy to the angler. Getting
the hook out is no easy task. But the
task is simplified by using handy
device just invented and described in
the Popular Science Monthly.
The device is made from one piece
of elastic steel wire bent in the shape
Of pair of tongs. The ends of the
two arms Of the tongs are sharpened
to point. When a fish has been
caught which has swallowed the hook,
the arms of the tongs are compressed
and their ends are inserted in the
6sh's mouth. The arms will then
spring apart and hold the jaws open.

His Trouble.

Mrs. Bacon-To make mems collars
wear longer, see an inventor has pat
ented one with an extra buttonhole so
that it can be fitted to shirt without

nearly $5O,OOO,OOO, the number OF
loans closed being $4,000. The
amount applied for at that date was
s260,Ooo,OO0, representing over
100000 applicants.
The total loans made by the
various hanks MARA 90 fnllorrr.

is much lower than they feel It
ought to be. 1t would seem from
the talk among the farmers, that
fixing the price of potatoes would be
almost a necessity next year, other
wise the acreage will be very con-
siderably cut down.

U. s. NAVAL RESERVE FORCE.

| hSlC 10 " dlIuCu lOl Vic Clll-
ted States Naval Reserve Force
Immediately 300 young men of
good moral habits between the
ages of eighteen and thirty-fve to
enroll for the period of the war
as Apprentice Seamen. These
vacancies are caused from the
fact that the Apprentice Seamen
who have enlisted during the past
three or four months have COM
pleted the naval training and have
been sent to duty afoat and the
call for these men is made posi-
bic owing to the transfer of these
men, which leaves ample room for
the training Of this additional
number of men at the Algiers and
West End training stations, New
Orleans. This is an opportunity
of q lifetime to enter the Naval
service without having to enlist for
period Of four years, which is
necessary in peace time. Any
man having received this training
will be able to go out in the world
and make his way much better
than had he not received this
training.
At these training stations men
are taught the art Of rowing and
maneuvering small boats, the
mechanical workings of machine
guns. assembling parts of and
planting mines, and general naval
etiquette. All forms of athletics
are encouraged by the officials,
such as baseball. foot ball, basket
ball, ntenis, fencing, swimming,
boxing. and it might be well to
mention at these stations are TO
be found many well know stars
in these games both professional
and amateurs.
While in this course of train
ing, men receive a pay of $32. go
per month with subsistence and
quarters, and upon the compile
ton of this course, which as a
rule is between three to four
months. they are given a rating
of Seaman End Glass with pay
of $3.50, and promotion there
after is strictly up to themselves.
At these training stations there
are to be found hundreds of men
who were formerly lawyers. mer-
chants, clerks. mechanics, carpen-
tiers, engineers and students in
civil life; and it is a known fact
that many men who have enlisted
in this branch Of the service in
The past six months have already
been promoted to Warrant or
Commission grade. Owing to the
fact that the Government is now
putting in commission ships
laily, the demand is growing more
rapidly for men to mann these
ships as officers, and any one hav-
ng had the benefit of a high school
n college education is certain Of
'romotion if he applies himself.
Men Of draft age. upon apply
ng for enrolment, should pro-
,ure themselves with a release
70 mtheir local board as per Sc
ective Service Regulation No.
81; as well as boys between the
ges of Is and q years should
ring with them their birth cer-
ificate.
