potatoes often win bring as much on
The market as a barrel OF good apples.
and frequently more and sweet pota-
toes bruise even more readily than
apples
1t is likely that if sweet potatoes
were handled with the same care and
intelligence rs apples, little difficulty
would be experienced in keeping them
in storage.
After the potatoes are well dried
in the field they should be carefully
laid in an open crate holding about one
bushel and hauled to the storage house,
they should not be poured out Of the
crate into the bin, but stored in the
crate itself the use OF crates permits
the free circulation of air among the
potatoes, condition which cannot be
obtained If they are poured into n bin.
In this manner a certain number Of
crates can Doe removed in the winter
for markets without disturbing the
balance of the potatoes in storage,
sweet potatoes will not stand frequent
handling and for that reason il is I'M
wise to disturb "a pile in the bin unless

During influenza epidemics spray
the nose and throat several times
day with one part Wizard Oil and
two parts water, using an atomizer.
If you haven't an atomizer, gargle

antiseptic wall of defense against
"Flu" germs.
Chest colds and sore throat lead
to grip. Stop them at once with
Wizard Oil before they can develop
into dangerous influenza.

B0NNR LAW PLEADS FOR
COALITION GOVERNMENTS
TO SAVE THE NATIONS

London, Nov 1s.-Addressing union
lists in London today, Andrew Bonar
Law, government leader in the house
OF commons, emphasized the Importance
Of q coalition government in de-
vclopinG the strength of nations. He
said that Great Britain, France and
Italy in the war realized that the life
of the nations was in danger, and
formed coalitions to save them. The
United States being farther away, did
not form coalition.
No danger was seen, and he said it
would be terrible if it became a reality
that a great nation might not play n
part in reconstruction after the war
because there had been no coalition and
party spirit was as rampant as though
there had been no war.

PLANE PUT TO PECULIAR USE

SANTA BARBARA, Aug. 4.-The newest thing in sports is seaplane fishing. It originated in Santa Bar bara at the suggestion of Allan Loug- head, an aviator.
 Seven young women acted on the suggestion. They boarded the Loug- banks and came to an anchorage. After an hours time, when they had made a fair catch the return trip was made. All went off as nicely as f scaplane fishing was an established thing.
 The distinction of being members of the first party to try out this port belongs to Madam L. A. SacA- nowsky, of Petrograd, Miss Irene Bar ker. of Denver, Miss Beatrice Lund and Miss Eleanor Morgan, of San Francisco, Miss Morjorie Bennett of Los Angeles, and Mrs. Mary Bennett and Miss Fair Bennett, of Pasadena
 Many unique uses will be discover ed for the seaplane," says Aviator Loughead "Once the people become reconciled to the fact that flying is a practical rather than a spectacular thing, they will begin to get some good out of it"
