SWEET POTATOES POSSIBILITIES
IN INDUSTRY TO Be TESTED
Congressman Crisp Gets 81 500 Appropriation F or
Purpose-Offers Great Opportunities AS
Raw Material

Some of the possibilities-com-
mercial possibilities-of the sweet DO
tato have recently been outlined in
Washington where Congressman Chas.
K. Crisp, of this district, has OBJ
tanned an appropriation of $500 for
research work in an effort to develop
a commercial industry with the pota-
TO as the raw product. According to
experts who were heard by the com
mIttee of congress, the sweet potato
contains 10 per cent cane sugar, more
starch than the Irish potato, now the
source of a large part of the starch
OF commerce, dextrin and other val
liable products, giving it great posi-
bilities.
Following the success of Congress
man Crisp in obtaining the appropria-
ton for this work. President Andrew
M. Soule, of the Georgia State Col
lege of Agriculture, recognizing its
significance and Importance, wrote
him as follows:
sc. R. Crisp, M. c., Washington, D. c.
Dear Colonel Crisp: Permit me to
congratulate you on securing an ap-
preparation to begin research work in
association with sweet potatoes. This
is crop, the latent possibilities of
which are wholly unappreciated at

Merely a Good Story.

Wars produce many stories of fc-
ton, some of which the oftener they
are told the more they are believed to
be true. The Civil war was no ex.
ception to this rule, and the story of
the apple tree is one of these fictions
based on a slight foundation of fact
There was. indeed. an apple orchard
IN one side of the hill occupied by the
Confederate forces. Running diagonal
ly up the hill was wagon road, which
at one point, ran very near one of the
trees, so that the wheels of the We
hicles had on that side cut off the
roots Of the tree, leaving little en-
bankment. General Babcock, of my
staff, reported to me that when he FIRST
met General Lee he was sitting on this
embankment. with his feet In the road
below, and his back resting against
the tree. The story had no other foun-
dalton than that. Like many other
good stories, it would be very good if
1t was only true.-Memoirs of
Ulysses S. Grant.

Mast-Eurnishinq Tree.

In Canada and eastern United
States the larch, sturdy tree, which
belongs to the pine family, often grows
so or 60 feet high and is generally
known as hackmatack. while in the
Central states it is called tamarack.
The European variety is even taller
and has longer leaves which don beau
tiful autumn tints before falling.
On account Of it's long, tapering
form, the tree is extremely useful for
masts in sailing vessels, telegraph
poles, and variety of purposes, and
as it is common from the Arctic circle
to the United States, it is easily found
for the especial use for which it is
adapted.

A CHRISTMAS WISH

May this Christmas time bring JOY
and gladness to the hearts of every
one
MAY the suffering and unfortunate
pause in their wearisome toll and find
comfort in the old, old story that is
repeated at Christmas time.
May the proud and naughty remem-
her that all men are mortal, and that
worldly possessions cannot be carried
beyond the grave.
MAY all remember that each is the
child of the Divine Creator, that
caste, either among the heather or
the civilized peoples, is merely the
doings of man, and that the humblest
peon on earth will sit with kings on
high.
May we acquire anew lesson from
that story, which we first heard at our
mothers knee, to the end that, in
the new year that is to come, our
lives may be replete with service to
our God and to our fellow men.
