THE STATE PRESS.
The Georgia Sweet Potato.

The Georgia Sweet Potato.
The Savannah Press days ago in reply to the
suggestion of plan the yield of the Geor
gia potato said that if the yield increased
that section of the they would bus right of the
ground" 1t is not question of increasing the yield
of the sweet potato in Georgia other Southern
state but advertise that very oohsome tuber the
other sections of the country.
There is not a more delicious article of food pro
duced than the yam potato, and it is passing strange
that they are not frequently the tables of the
hotels and private houses of the and believe thai
if properly introduced the Georgia yam would be
made fashionable.
1t is said that several years ago. before grape fruit
had become popular that the late Mrs. Frank Leslie
found Florida farmer acquaintance of hers with
large crop his hands for which there sale
She liked the fruit herself and suggested that if the
Eastern people knew of it, a market could be
made She returned to New York, and at had thu
fruit placed the bilof hotel Fashionable
one and that day popularity of the grape fruit
began to increase.
little advertising of this kind might do we'll with
the potato, and Georgia should follow THE example
of Mississippi in promoting advertising campaign

"The humble sweet potato has eaped into third

There is only one draw back in the extensive mar
keting of the potato and that is the difficulty in
keeping them sound. This trouble, however is being
overcome by the newer methods of curing, better
packing.
The ability of some farmers to store their pota-
toes so they keep is peculiar We have noticed
that in every community there farmers who have
better than others in keeping them in hills

manently higher price level" says Pro-
fessor Fisher. "and the sooner the
business men of the country take this
view and adjust themselves to it the
sooner will they save themselves and
the nation from the misfortune which
will come if we persist in our present
false hope"
After setting out the circumstances
and developments on which this con-
clusion is based, Professor Fisher con-
cludes his study of the situation with
this: Business men should face the
facts. To talk reverently of, 1913-'14

day. The buyers Of the country, since
the armistice, have made an unexam-
pied attack upon prices through their

son is that we are on a new high price

To the man not e. The real estate
profession such a condition is difficult
to understand, because most business
is limited now by the factor of high
cost of production, based on abnormal
labor and material prices. This very
factor which is causing stagnation, at
least temporarily in most lines of
trade, is the very one responsible for
the present widespread real estate ac-
tivity. Were labor and material avail
able in large supply and at usable
prices the real estate probably would
be on an entirely different basis. Natu-
rally rentals would not be so high, and
properties would not be bought SO ex-

Seeks Widening
Of Madison Avenue
Committee, Headed by Law.
renee e. Gilman, Wants
Street Broadened

An active campaign has been revived
by the Madison Avenue Committee and
the Fifth Avenue Association for the
widening of Madison Avenue from
Forty-sixth to Sixty-frst Street Law
renee B. Gilman has been appointed
chairman OF the committee.
A movement of this kind was under
way before, but the war interfered with
the work and little was ACCOMPLISHED.
The organization has already sought
the aid Of the President Of the borough
IN an effort to have the movement sue
cesstully y carried through. The COM
mlttee IS making canvass of the own
ers of Madison Avenue properties be-
tween the streets named for their CO.
operation and assistance on the prof.
ect. In the building of the Biltmore
Hotel provision for widening the street
was made. The committee believes that
the widening will not only be Of great
benefit to Madison Avenue, but will
help in a large way to relieve the con-
gestion on Fifth Avenue.

Have Realty Companies
Overlooked Their Rights :?
Ruling Regarding Reduction of
Mortgage Interest Was Made
Four Years Ago

The right to deduct interest paid on
mortgages in computing Federal in
come taxes was permitted to corpora
tlons four years ago, according to a
communication received from Charles
Paul Brown, of the law firm of Brown
e. Cooksey, 10 Wall Street. Early this
week the Advisory Council of Real
Estate Interests announced that r11I-
ing had been obtained from the Treas
ury Department which gave this privi-
lege or right to corporations. Mr..
Brown writes:
1.-The United States District Court
for the Southern District of New York
on February 18, 1915, decided Cn the
case OF American Real Estate Company
VS. Marshall, Collector) that, where a
realty corporation takes title to real
property subject to a mortgage, but
does not assume the Indebtedness So

a period Of depression which left values
at such levels that there was room for
large appreciation. 1t was not an un-
common thing to find such houses val
ucd at rates very little in excess of
the amounts that once could be bor-
rowed on them on mortgage.
So it was natural that as these apart
ments became fully tenanted and rentals
increased they should become a fertile
field fer speculation. And speculation
followed. Wherever property was
found that could be bought cheaply and
with little cash it was snapped up.
Not infrequently the contract was re-
sold and perhaps several times, the adj
vance in price on the resale being a
moderate amount. The spectators who
are, buying such houses argue that the
buildings cannot be reproduced under
a so per cent advance over the original
cost, and that values should be based
on such cost of reproduction. 1t was
possible in times passed to build such
structures at $3.50 to 5000 front foot,

pied by business concerns which own
their own locations. Many of these
firms year ago would have consid-
cred ownership Of real estate among
the last possibilities, but such are
conditions that they have been COM
PEELED to buy in order to insure their
having any business homes at all.
Big Private House Market
Private dwelling houses are enjoy
ing popularity to-day in startling
contrast to the lack of interest shown
in them for the last ten years or more.
Even the most ardent advocate of the
individual home scarcely would have
.lieHcd that the time would again come
when such properties would be sought
for eagerly. The best that was oX-
peetcd OF private house neighborhoods
before the war started was that they
should become sites for great apart
mcnt buildings, and nearly every pri-
vate house owner held his building
with that end in view.

fact the kind of business every ons
