hastings, March 1S.-The recent
frost did no damage in this section
for the potato plants look inst as
sood as ever, Those that had plant
81 early and had good stands with
vines several inches high did some
worrying but close examination
showed that very few plants had suf.
Tered to any extent. Even though the
tops may be frozen it will not AFFECT
the yield. 1t may delay the harvest

around Hastings indicate another
record crop. Averaging up all the
fields conservative estimate is a as

spuds on the stems. Federal point has
an even better average for there the
crop looks almost prfect with only a
bare spot showing here and there be-
ing SO close to the protecting water

weather have interfered with work on

acreage is in Irish potatoes and plan,

here that the acreage to potatoes IS
at least Is per cent greater than a
year ago, though the larger factors
are not in it so heavy as them.
There is an increase in the acreage
CT lettuce, beets and onions, and it is
expected that there will be gain

to be considered by the truck grower
is that Of labor, and though there

WE ALL AND YOU ALL

eve all know how the French no
bility read Rousseau" says the Lit
erary Digest.
The Digest might have said "all
of US know" but it didn't. 1t might
have said 1--WE" without creating the
probability of being misunderstood,
but the writer wrote, quite natural
" 1--WE ALL"
When a Southerner says 'you all'
he is accused, invariably, by North
erners of saying "you all" or "you-
"youall" hen he speaks to an indi-
"youlI' when he speaks to an indi-
vidual.
The Courier-Journal pointed, out
some time ago the frequent occur
renee of "you alp in the text of the
Shakespeare plays-particularly in
the fne-wrought speech of Marc. An
tony over the dead body of Caesar
as revealing the human disposition
to make the plural "you" more def
initely sweeping and inclusive than
it is when simply "you". is uttered
orally or written.
To write eve all know" is to
make an ingratiating, is not sin
cere affirmative of universal famil
iarity with the period of French his
tory in which the nobility "were so
entranced with the romance of Rous-
seau's pretentions that they never
looked out of the window to see the
storm brewing" There is a pleas
ing, inclusive disposition in the form
of expression, but when Southern
er so INDUCES the inclination to in
clude everybody in "you alp or in
1--WE all" he is charged almost invari-
ably with having hyphenated or com
bined "you" or "we" with call" De-
NAL and defense are as vain as the
watch dogs baying at the serene
moon.-Courier-Journal.

belief is based largely upon the of

that officials there were endeavoring
to spread the report that this country

that by holding up reply Mexicans
could offer substantial aid to the
"revolutionists. Mexican agents in

the consumers in the cities, such as
Nashville, Memphis and st. Louis,

Gen. Felipe Angeles, who was shot
by Carranza soldiers Wednesday,
was one of the ablest men in Mexico
in recent years. He brought the
French .75 gun to its high state of
perfection and was decorated by the
French Government for his services
in the war. A man who was friendly
to the Allies had not the ghost of
a chance when he fell into Carran-
za's hands. A strong legal effort
was made to save Angeles but he
was railroaded to his doom and shot
the day following his trial by court
martial.

Household Hints
FooR CANNING.


To Prevent Leaky Jars-Fill the
jars before using them with water
and then adjust the rubber, and
fasten the lid securely. Invert and
test for leaks. Jars that are not abb
solutely alright will spoil the con-
tents. no matter how long you process
them, so be very particular about this
point. II you have bent the edges
OF the jar lids by using a knife to
open them you must either use
block of wood or the hammer and
hammer them fat or use new lids.
Don't use old rubbers; they will cause
the product to spoil. Purchase good
grade of rubber. Poor ones will blow
out during the processing period, and
cause the loss of time in re-process-
ing.
Fancy Packing-Place ore layer OF
the prepared fruit or vegetables one
and one-half inches deep in the bottom
OF a quart jar; then add one-inch
layer of others of different color,
cut in dice and parboiled. Repeat
this process until the jar is filled
and then process in the usual manner.
II you have any doubt about your
lids fitting closely, so as to be abb
solutely alright, dip the tops Of the
jars one inch below the lids in melted
paraffin just before storing.
Hot-Water Bath-The jars must be
placed on a rack. then in either a
regular water-bath Gamer or in a
wash boiler. The water should be
below the boiling point, preferably
about 165 degrees Farenheit. Have
the water at least three inches above
the tops of the jars.
Cover the boiler closely and then
bring quickly to a boil. Let boil fol
two minutes and then count the time
from this moment for the processing
period. 1t is important that the fire
be kept up SO that the water does moi
stop boiling. Careless preserving will
ruin the contents of the jars and thus
cause waste of materials, time ant
fuel.
