Avoid Rocks and Stiff Clay to Grow
 Smooth Sweet Potatoes.

Sweet potatoes should be planted on congenial soil which is sloping enough to give drainage. They are subject to frost and therefore should be planted on the more elevated sec tions of the farm which will give the longest possible growing period. As the ideal tuber should be smooth and uniform. it is we'll to select soil with out rock or much stin clay and one that Is retentive of moisture throueh the dry months.

MORE COMP ASS STATIONS ARE
 TOBE ERECTED ED

CHICAGO, Oct T by Associated Press )--Wifeless compass stations, similar to those which have been in successful operation on the North Atlantic coast for more than a year. are to be installed along the Great Lakes These stations, operated by the navy department, enable the operators to give to ships lost in a fog their position within a narrow radius of accuracy.
 Fogs on the upper lakes have , claimed one freighter and 30 lives as victims this year and records of pre- vious years show a heavy toll of ship ping. Success of the system on the Atlantic coast lead to it's recent in stalltion on the Pacific coast and sta tions were recently ordered along the Alaskan coast. Now it is announced the inland waters are to be similar ly protected.
 One of the stations is to be built at DetOur. Mich, and others at Grand Marais, Mich; White Fish Point, Mich; Eagle Harbor, Mich; Thunder Bay Island, in Lake Huron, and an other probably will be located either on Wind Point, near kenosha, Wis, or Crosse Point, Evanston, III.

the city should then adopt program OF
extension covering several years, at the
end of which time the built-up streets
should all be severed and extensions IN

rate equal to the demand.
