7-5-1. This grower, however, lived in
sandy section, and it is doubtful if
5 per cent potash is needed in the
clayey sections. We are of the opin-
ion that an 8-4-2 would be about
right for average conditions for this
crop.
After the fertilizer is put in the
bottom Of this furrow, thoroughly
mix it with the soil by running
through with a scooter pillow, and
plant the potato right down in the
bottom of the furrow.
Plant in the same general way as
for the spring crop, using about the
same size potato, but cover consider
ably deeper. On the average, the
piece Of potato should be covered
from five to six inches deep.
1t is desirable, so far as possible,
to do this planting in the early morn
ing, or in the late afternoon, or on
a cloudy day, in order that the pota-
toes may be placed in a rather cool
soil and not be exposed to the sun,
even for a few minutes. This may
seem like a rather unimportant point.

HOW TO GROW FALL
IRISH POTATOES

Irish potatoes grown in the south
during the spring will not keep
through the summer and into the win
ter unless special storage houses are
available. This means that the Irish
potatoes used during winter either
must be grown in the form of a
second crop or bought from those
who keep them in cold storage
through the summer, or grown in the
north and east. Therefore the pro-
per thing is for every farmer to grow
enough of this second crop to have
some of this excellent food product
during the winter months.
The Lookout Mountain variety is
probably the one best bet for this
second crop in most sections of the
south. However, the Green Noun
tain and Peach Blow do quite we'll
in many sections of the south. Also
the varieties commonly grown dur
ing the spring do well, such as Irish
Cobbler, etc. The Lookout Mountain
is rather inferior in quality, but
9GGlAIo W puoSGoS opCOlol 0OiliJS ~
grow under rather adverse conditions,
and this is quite desirable for the
second crop, because it is often nee
essary for this crop to have to con-
tend with severe drouth and hot
weather.
The trouble in securing a good
WELD of this second crop is in secur-
ing a stand. We have often heard it
said that if one secured stand of
this crop, the crop is half made.

DAYLIGHT SAVINGS is
UPHELD By HOUSE

Washington, July 49, r Renewed
attempts of House Republican leaders
to repeal daylight saving through a
rider to the 1920 agricultural appro-
priation bill, were defeated in the
House today when Republican oppon-
ents Of repeal Joined with the Demo-
Gratis in voting to eliminate the re-
peal provision Immediately after
ward without a dissenting vote the
! agricultural bill, carrying $33, $780, 900,
was passed and sent to the Senate.
Final action on the daylight saving
repeal came after a day marked by
sharp political clashes in both houses
and in committees. Democrats, in
GLIDING those favoring repeal, refused
to join in making the repeal rider in
order, and in speeches on the floor
attacked the Republicans as playing
politics"
Republican leaders, however, insist
ed that the rider alone would assure
early passage Of the agricultural bill
which Democrats said was certain to
be vetoed again by President Wilson
if it included the repeal provision.
Opponents to inserting the repeal
provision gained strength with each
vote in the House, the final action
being by a vote of 203 to III. This
followed two tentative votes, which
favored the elimination of the rider,
la to 1913. A few Democrats voted
with the majority Republicans in oD-
posing the elimination, but their
votes were more than offset by Re
publican members. The Senate re-
garded as heavily in favor of repeal,
now has before it a House bill to re-
peal the daylight saving law. The SEN
ate. it was said by congressional
leaders, may pass and send to the
president the separate repeal meas
ure. Before the repeal came up in
the House today, two Of the standing
committees-agriculture and rules
considered the provision, but the
Democratic committeeman of each
declined to recommend passage Of
the repeal as a part of the appropria-
ton bill Later on the floor they
were supported by their colleagues,
but the Republicans then voted al
most solidlv in forcing consideration
Of the repeal.

Lucky Paid Her Bill With Much

Lucky was under deep suspicion,

pearance of one Of those fly-by-
night birds that would rather jump

your trail tomorrow"
The detective, who happened to be
the tester for the Rutherford county
association, was called in, looked
wise, and gave the old cow you
are guilty" once over.
During a 12-months' period he
watched her feeding, checked up her
productions of milk and butter, and
made copious notes of every action.
AT the end he submitted his report
to the Judge.
-Four hundred and seventeen
pounds of butter it read. "The sus-
picion is unfounded, and you are COM
mended as a result" he said.
Lucky switched off another fly,
contentedly chewed her cud, and con-
tinued pouring out fat golden butter,

selves through the milk scales and

DISPUTE ADOPTION
OF MONROE CLAUSE
Not in Covenant Say Some
French Critics.

Paris, April 15.-The official sum-

league of nations shows the Monroe
doctrine amendment is in the cove
nant and the Japanese amendment is
not included
The official summary was prepared
by Colonel House, Lord Robert Cecil
and others fully conversant with the
document.
Notwithstanding this, there appears
to be strange and divergent views
concerning the status of the amend
ments. Leon Bourgeois, the French
member of the commission on the
league, took the view after Thurs
days meeting that the Monroe doc
trine amendment had not been adopt
I'd.
The semi-official Temps said .'the
American amendment incorporating
he Monroe doctrine into the coren-
mt was further examined on Friday,
but no decision has vet been reached"
The Temps also gives a French ver-
sion OF the consideration of the Jap
lnese amendment, saying that it pre-
vailed. This is obviously a mistake in
view of the British-American official
statement, in which the Japanese con-

SHIpWRECKED SAILORS
ATTACKED AS GERMANS
Beaten as They Landed on
Island in Open Boat.

New York, April 15.-Five ship
wrecked sailors and the skipper of the
abandoned three-masted schooner Net
tie Shipman, Captain Beryn Bradford,
of Eastport, Me-, arrived here aboard
the steamship William B. Palmer, after
narrowing experiences at sea, which
included a losing fight with tropical
storm, four days in an open lifeboat
and twenty-five days existence on an
island after being attacked by natives
who feared they were Germans.
The schooner, laden with 26T 900
feet of lumber, became derelict three
days after leaving Jacksonville, Fla,
for Antilla, Cuba, early last February.
A tornado snapped its masts and dis
lodged it cargo. SoGn the vessel be-
came waterlogged, forcing the captain
and crew to the lifeboat
On the fourth day they sighted Wat
lngs island, 165 miles off the coast
of San Salvatore, and when they at
tempted to land the natives tried TO
drive them back with clubs and shOv-
els before being convinced that they
we're Americans.
