adobe shacks began to grow. old

in to expand the city: mining and cat.

increasing the commercial Opportuni-

trade with Mexico. which continued
during the administration Of PorfiriO
Diaz and until the outbreak Of the
Madero revolution While the line has
been repaired at times since the first
revolution, it has fallen into almost
complete disuse at times because OF
repeated depredations Of revolution
lists and bandits. The Mexico & North

ton. Both roads are being repaired
and traffic has shown a considerable
increase during 1917, although it will
take several months more to get the
roads in their former shape.

grown there is a duty TO our coun-
try which we must perform.
Production depends upon mar
keting and marketing is commerce.
The chamber of Commerce OF the
United States should recognize this
and get behind a movement to dou-
bic the potato production. We
ought TO have a billion bushels of po-
tatoes every year instead of q scant
400, 100000. The solution of this
problem depends upon the use
which can he made of small and in
ferior potatoes.
The retail price Of good pota-
toes may be maintained by proper
grading and starch mills and flour
mills must be directed and operated.

LATEST AMERICAN ACE
Is LIEUT.. WILLIAM ERWIN

NORTH OF vERDUc.. oct. 12.-The
latest American ace is Lieut.. Will
lam Erwin. who though an observer
and therefore not supposed 70 en-
gage in fighting. has downed his
NTH German airplane Lieut.
Erwin was mentioned I'm army orders
for his latest performance
The lieutenant was on an observa-
ton trip with Lieut.. Esterbrook.
who also was cited when he met an
enemy plane and forced il 10 retire.
A moment later he met three Ger
mans over Varennes. broke up the
formation and forced il 10 retire.
Then he ran into two more German
machines directing infantry liasion.
finally a biplane over Sommerance.
Lieut.. Erwin wounded or killed the
observer Of the biplane and then
Esterbrook closed with the plane. It
was sent crashing down.
Returning 10 his Observing mis-
sion, Lieut. Erwin carried IL out sue
cessfully. but on his return met n
single Halberstadt, which he drove
in fight.

1T is folly to say that we can
ever grow too many potatoes. The
most pernicious doctrine that was
over promulgated is the statement.
by many OF those high in agricul-
tural circles. that more money is
paid the farmer for small crop
than for a large one" says Frank
Baackes Of the American Steel &
Fire Co.
1T is true that on the surface it
would seem that in year when po-
tatoes were scarce. that the man
who had a few potatoes could get
n GRE for them, but what about the
man who had no potatoes on &C
count OF the scarcity. and how about
the man with the big family who
had 10 buy potatoes Does any
body claim that paying a large
price 10 a few farmers is better
than paying a fair price 10 them ALP
And who pays that price? The man
Of family who has many hungry
mouths 20 feed
For the sake OF argument let US
admit that under present and for
mer conditions a bumper crop OF
potatoes may be a calamity. But
why blame the potato The blame
should rest on Us or account OF our
inadequate preparation TO take care
Of such a crop.
While We have been crying about
the price OF potatoes. We have been
importing tons and tons OF potato
flour. potato starch, potato gums
and dextrines. We have never made
potato alcohol a factor.
How then can we complain at
the price OF potatoes? In those
sections OF the country where large
quantities OF potatoes may be easily

Sixty or sixty-fye million acres
seem to be our limit for growing
wheat. How. then. can we double
the wheat crop?
Under great stress in 1918 the
government reports that we have
succeeded in obtaining a yield OF
about s99.OOO.OoO busheI That is
not enough.
We should grow a billion and a
half and we must grow it without
restricting our other crops. How
can IL be done?
There is only one way and that
is TO cut out the wastes of diseases.
OF weeds. OF unadapted varieties. OF
faulty termination, of harvesting
Overripe and underripe grain of i'm
proper shocking, careless thresh.
ploughinR at the wrong time and in
the wrong way. of negIecting to use
proper fertilizers and rotations,
straw protection TO prevent winter
killing and in the ravages Of in
sects and other pests
These wastes will never be pre-
vented unless each community is or
ganized TO prevent them systemati-
cally with an organization In each
county OF the council of defense,
which will provide for labor. power.
seeds and money enough to insure
success.
In the matter OF grain diseases
alone, wheat scab and sinking smut
or hunt may be absolutely pre-

vented by treating all OF the seed
with a formaldehyde solution OF
one pint full strength TO 80 or 40
gallons Of water.
After tanning out the trash and
weed seeds any process which will
thoroughly soak the grain in the So
luton allowing smut balls and other
trash to rise to the surface to be
SKINNED off, is the most efficient
item is to insure a plan whereby
every man will do mis- at the prop
er time and the results checked up
by the central committee. Forty or
fifty I,illion bushels increase will re-
suit from this practice.
All the other wastes are similar
" preventable. If we cannot en-
large our acreage. why not double
our yield on the same acreage? Eng
land and France are raising 80 to
50 bushels per acre and we can do
likewise IL we choose.
We now have a county agent in
almost every agricultural county in
the United States and we must or
ganize for a more intensive produc-
ton which can be done only by con-
certed action in every section.
IL IS all very we'll TO talk the con-
servation of food but it is much bet
ter TO grow plenty Of food. A bill
lion bushels of wheat and a billion
bushels of potatoes are entirely pos
sible. and we need have no fear OF
starvation.
