Swee Potato Suggestions.

Clemson College, May 26.-The
sweet potato adapts itself to a great
diversity of soils, but it delights in
and thrives best in we'll drained
sandy or clay loan underlaid with a
clay subsoil. The soil may be thor
oughly and deeply prepared by turn
ing twice to a depth of 6 or 8 inches,
followed by cross discing. Crooked
and irregularly formed roots result
from shallow preparation of the soil.
Nancy Hall, Porto Rica, and Tri-
umph are the leading and most pop
ular varieties grown in this State.
Triumph is one of the earliest va
rieties, and should be planted when
potatoes are grown for early mar
ket. For late paintings, the one-leaf
vine cuttings to 10 inches long are
more desirable than are the slips or
"draws," this being especially true in
the growing OF seed stock.
Both barnyard and commercial fer
tilizers are recommended, but the
former must be judiciously used. Be-
cause of present shortage of potash,
the element of plant food most need
ed in excess in potato production,
liberal applications of barnyard ma
nure will be found to be very effect
i've in helping to reduce this shortage
and to correct the physical condition
of the soil. The fertility and physical
condition of the soil should determine
the amount of the applications. Or
dinarily, both commercial fertilizers
and barnyard manures are applied
in the drill, when the soil is being fit
ted for setting the plants, and, later,
as side dresser.

Do Your Best.

Everyone should do all he can to
provide for his family and in order
to do this he must keep his physical
system in the best condition possible.
No one can reasonably hope to do
much when he is half sick a good
share of the time. If you are consti-
pated, bilious or troubled with indi-
gestion get package of Chamber
lain's Tablets and follow the printed
directions, and you will soon be feel
ing all right and able to do days

Increasing the Income.

Farmers must be business men,
for they are dealing with great
business, that of producing and mar
keting the worlds food, feed and IL
Der products. To be less than good
business man means that a man is
unbusiness-like with a great busi-
ness.
We must use our income from the
farm to Increase the income. 1t is not
enough to get living at the expense
of the fertility constituents of the
soil. We must produce a surplus and
use the surplus to create a greater
surplus in fertility constituents. in
farm equipment, comfortable homes
and contented citizenship.
Business judgment requires that
farmers make investments, just as
men engaged in other business must
make investments. When investments
are made they should be required to
return a small profit yearly upon the
necessary expense incurred and in a
few years prove more profitable.
Farming is not to be compared with
speculation where enormous gains
or perhaps losses are made IN very
short while. Farming is conservative
and if investments are carefully
made returns will be commensurate,
provided business judgment is used.
It is natures plan to require time.
Considerable time is required be-
tween sowing and reaping. Let US
not be impatient, but have confidence
in the soil and make whatever I'M
provements are needed.-Farm and
Ranch.

Will SON BEGINS
. HIS MESSAGE ON
PEACE TREATY
(By Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Nov. "a. Presi-
dent Wilson will take up the whole
subject of the treaty of Versailles in
his message to congress December l.
Before congress convenes, it was
said, administration senators will con-
fer, and it is possible that the mild
reservationists from the Republican
side will participate, with a view to
working out an acceptable compro-
mise.
Leadership Unchanged
Regardless of who is selected to
succeed the late Senator Martin as
Democratic leader in the senate, there
in the treaty fight, it was said at the
White House. The president considers
that Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska
has conducted the fight ably and sees
no reason why he should not again
lead the administration forces.
Senator Underwood of Alabama,
whose name has been mentioned prom
inently in connection with the Demo
cratic leadership, called at the White
House today to see Secretary Tumulty.
Europe Not to Wait
Action by the supreme council at
Paris in fixing December l as the date
for formal proclamation Of state Of
peace between the powers ratlfylng
the treaty fulfilled the expectations OF
administration officials. After the
senate had ended its special session
without ratifying the treaty, the gen
eral feeling here was that Europe
would not wait longer for this coun-
| ltry's decision.
Under the treaty's provisions. the
exchange of ratifcations could have
been made as soon as three of the
great powers had ratified, but the date
twas delayed, it was announced, large

The time limit for reduction of tho
