 This little bag will be found very useful for holding tickets, etc, and just the few pence required for fares each day.
 Made in a larger size with cord handle attached, it forms a neat type of wrist bag, and if made for that pur- pose, the back should be stiffened with a piece of card cut to fit and sewn in between the silk and the lining.

Fine Concert.

A small but very appreciative audi
ence heard at the Grand last night
Arthur Seigel and Miss Bargara Maurel
of the All Star Popular Concert sing
ers who appeared here in concert. II
was the concensus of opinion that the
concert was among the most enjoya-
BILE ever given in this city and the audi
ence applauded rapturously each num-
Der, of the program. The program was
an artistic one and was selected TO
peculiarly fit each Of the two artists
and to say it pleased the audience is
putting it rather mildly. Mr. Seagle
possesses baritone voice of unusual
power and range and handles 1t with
ease. He sang "The Drinking Song
from Hamlet" splendidly and brought
down his audience, but perhaps made
his biggest hit when he sang group
Of negro folk songs such as Use
G%iue Back to Dixie" Swing Low
Sweet Chariot" and de Old Arks a
Moverin." Scarcely sound could be
heard in the audience during the rem
dition of this group OF songs and tears
were brought to the eyes of many.
Miss Maurel who is a charming
young woman of winning personality
made hit with her first appearance
and each time she appeared she ap-
peared to better advantage. Her pro-
gram was varied and she sang each
number in the most pleasing and artis-
tic manner. In her second group OF
songs she was especially charming and
held the closest attention of her audi
ence as she sang Soldiers Bride"
think Love of Me-" Songs of the
Chimes" the latter lullaby and by
the Waters of Monnetoka." She pos
sesses a wonderfully sweet soprano
voice of wide range and Handled it SUI
perbly. The closing number, duet,
"Trot Here, Trot There" from Yer
oniuue was admirably rendered and at
its conclusion the audience would not
be silenced until Mr.. Seagle and Miss
Maurel appeared and sang a portion OF
the piece second time.

WHY FOOD PRICES ARE IN
CREASING

"During the last fifty or seventy-five
years principally since 1840), while
the large cities in this country and
Europe have been growing, the estab-
lished agricultural areas that produced
food were supplemented by the OPEN
ing up of new lands in the middle
West, Canada, Brazil, Argentina, South
and Central Africa, Australia and ST.
IBERIA.
food products, chiefly grains and
meats, were produced on virgin, I'M
fortified lands. Emigrant labor was
employed and subsequently there vas
cheap railroad and steamship transpor-
tation, so until recently the people in
cities have been fed on food produced
and sold at a price which did not take
into consideration the cost of prOduc-
ton and the value of plant food con
tanned in crops which must be returned
to the soil to maintain productivity

in 1917 as in 1900, but this was Sc
cured at the expense of our European
neighbors. Our exports practically
ceased; we had no surplus left to send
abroad.
But the question is, "Toward what
r we headedT' Shall we have to
continue to reduce our meat ration I'M
til eventually we come to the plan of
cereal-eating China? This is the
natural trend in every highly populat-
ed country. Where people and live
stock must compete for the same
grain, live stock is pretty apt to get
left.
But there is no real need for perma-
nent meat shortage in America. Our
farm and particularly u pastures r
not producing anything like full ca
pacity. Following the close of the wal
fertilizer will undoubtedly be used
more extensively than ever before to
boost live stock production. Many
live stock farms could actually double
their carrying capacity by making use
of commercial fertilizer. Fertilizer
to Keep More Live Stock" bids fair to
be a popular slogan Oh the American

THE IRISH POTATO THE FOOD
OF THE PEOPLE

The Irish potato is a staple of
American diet. Enough potatoes were
consumed in the United States in 1915
20 allow one eight-ounce potato a day
throughout the whole year for each
man, woman and child.
Truly, the potato is the food of the
people. The portion of the American
neal made up by this vegetable, alone,
consumes owe 300,000,000 bushels an
1ually.
Intensive methods make it possible
20 grow crops yielding from 250 to 400
bushels per acre, and at the same time
% decrease the cost of raising each
oushel. The big expense in potato
growing ome in the preparation of
the land, the purchase of the seed and
the attention given the crop through
out the season. But it costs no more
to prepare ground, plant, cultivate and
spray a 300-bushel crop than it does a
150-bushel crop. Harvesting will cost
more, but the big overhead expenses
are practically the same. Obviously
the thing to do is to insure large
yields by supplying an abundance of
available plant food that will give the
crop a good start and force it to early
maturity.
Fertilizers should be applied at the
time of planting, and in order to make
certain that this material may be or
hand when needed it Is especially i'm
portant to order early this year.
The man who has his fertilizer
stored in his own barn is the only one
who can be certain of a supply when
needed. A big potato crop will be
needed next year whether peace comes
or not.
