now is second only to Irish potatoes
in commercial importance. To as
sist growers who are not familiar with
the culture and storage of sweet po-
tatoes, the United States Department
of Agriculture has recently published
Farmers Bulletin 999, "Sweet Pota-
to Growing" which discusses the SUBJ
ject from the preparation of the soil
and growing of the preparation of the
soil and growing of the plants to har-
Vesting, storing, and marketing the
crop.
Sweet potatoes can be grown under
wide range of conditions for home
use, says the bulletin, but when they
are to be produced commercially, care
full consideration should be given to
the necessity of suitable soil, favor
able climate, accessible market, ample
transportation, and proper storage.
Storage is of great Importance, for
if the crop is improperly cured and
stored it will decay rapidly and the
whole years work will be lost. But
it is possible by improved methods
to hold sweet potatoes for several
months at practically no loss.
This crop is propagated by plants

"When the Creator made man he

He didn't make a lot Of men and say,
"This is Manw He said, "These are
Men," and he made them all different.
He gave each one of them distinct

press all individuality in the child and
then when he gets out into the world

Thus does Angelo Patri explain, in
an interview in the May number OF
the Red Cross Magazine, the under
living thought upon which is built the
success with which he has turned the
New York school of which he is prin'
cipal into something more than
school, vertically the heart of the
community.
The lesson of Patri's early strug,
giles in the drab atmosphere of
school that was nothing more than
place for examining undigested infor,
nation into children was not lost up
on the immigrants son. He determ,
ined to abolish the old cleavage and
mutual distrust between the teacher
and pupil. Patri rejects the sugges-
ton that he has discovered something
seeking only to guide children in their
natural bent that they may develop
naturally. PARENTAL associations
children's clubs, relief work and Wis
ting nurses round out PATHS system
of helping the whole family and so,
directly, the community.

studies cooking-instead Of domestic

MAN OR MULE
WHICH is WORTH MORE

Here is story that one of the
managers of the Centenary Campaign
of the Methodist Episcopal Church
picked up in one of the faraway ru-
raj districts that is being reached
in this movement for Christianity:
The mule was hitched to a two
horse wagon. The man stood by,
waiting for the wagon to be loaded.
His business was to drive the mule.
"How much day for the outft!'
l asked.
"Three-fifty for driver and team"
the man answered.
Do you own the team?"
"No l drive for Mr.. A.
"And how much do you get?'
"Seven dollars a week if l make
full time"
A dollar day for the man, dol
lar and a quarter for each mule.
The man had a wife and three child
rem to house and feed and clothe.
The mule had no family, no coal bills,
no clothing to buy.
The mule was paid $1.25 per day
and the mana dollar.
Indeed the mule had the best OF it
in other ways. If the weather was
to bad for work, the mule had snug
shelter and thee full meals a day.
If the man lost day, it meant less
food on the table and less coal on
the fire. Enough lost days meant un-
paid rent, and empty pantry, and
another name on the charity list.
If the mule got sick, a skilled vete-
rinary was called posthaste. He was
too valuable to lose. If the man got
sick, it was nobody's business to see
that he got we'll. There were plenty
of others to take his place.

produced by sprouting sweet potatoes
in warm sand. Potatoes from wnicn
the plants are to be grown should
be planted in early spring in hotoeos.
In the South, where no bottom heat is
necessary, cold frames may be USED
successfully. Good plants are neces-
sarily for successful crop, for olg
harvest depends largely upon the way
the plants start off after being re-
moved from the plant bed and set IN
the field or garden.

Georgia's population observed that
Sabbath day: Some, in firing deadly

guilty and innocent alike-in lodging
bullets!
Pistols and whisky-both forbid
den by the law!-back of it all!
Whisky and pistols-the twins that
naturally are inseparable compan-
ions the cause of the pain, the mis-
cry, the disgrace, the remorse, the
heartaches, the saddening of homes
and communities, and of the funerals,
and the costly court trials that come
as the inevitable sequel!
Such Sunday! And yet, it is only
typical sample of what is and OF
what is to be expected in any COM
munity which gives scant considera-
ton to the law, and in which those
responsible for the laws enforcement
do not take their sworn obligations
seriously.
In Georgia it is against the law for
any person to carry deadly weapon
concealed about his person-with, of
course, certain justifiable exceptions.
Yet, as the police records indicate,
any citizen, white or black, who wants
to carry pistol does so.
And, disarm drunken negro, and
he can forthwith buy ton of pistols,
if he so desires, at dollar or two
each, from the hundreds of pawn shop
proprietors and other merchants who
sell them throughout Georgia, with as
much freedom as he could buy key
of nails or a carpenters hammer
and in many instances the obllglng
dispenser throws in" round of am
munition!
Then, a visit to the blind tigers,
the purchase of a bottle of whisky,
and your otherwise, perhaps, harm
less citizen is all ready at "the drop
of hat" to become a murderer-to
shoot at whomever crosses his drunk
en- will, let the bullets strike where
and whom they may!
Catch the blind tiger and drag him
into court, and with the cash proceeds
from a barrel-in many instances,
from only few quarts-of whisky
he ordinarily can buy his way to lib
erty; and then he starts out again
with the added incentive of having to
increase his sales in order to REIN
burse himself for what he had to pay,
not to the state nor to society, but
to those who arrested and prosecuted
him, in fees, through the filming pro-
cess!

FARM BUREAU PICNIC.

RiSersme Park was the scene of q
very enjoyable picnic Saturday, June
28th, when farmers of the county got
together to meet each other and have
a good time. Considerable time was
spent in getting acquainted, having
dinner, and singing Farm Bureau
songs.
After dinner, Mr.. Yampolski, Potato
Disease specialist of the North Dakota
Agricultural College, talked on the
diseases of potatoes and told how to
distinguish one disease from the other
and where to look for the disease. He
brought out some very interesting
points; that Ward county is particular
u free from potato diseases and there
fore the farmers should be very care
full and see that only perfectly healthy
potatoes be planted, also that the
South cannot raise their own seed and
if we do our part in keeping our po-
tatoes free from disease, we will have
an unlimited market for them.
Mr.. German, county agent, discussed
the need of watching for and prepar-
ing to combat the grasshopper- that is
threatening to destroy this years crop.
The merchants Of the city deserve a
great deal of credit for their generos-
ity in providing refreshments and the
members of the Farm Bureau heartily
thSnk them for their splendid cooper
alton.
