in calling attention to the false
claims made by concerns selling

Storage houses, of both indiviG.

der plans furnished by the United
States Department Of Agriculture
have been in use in every South
ern state for several years and in
yestigations have shown no case
of failure Of these houses when
properly operated.
One of the principal arguments
used by concerns selling "paten-
ted" storage house plans is that
sweet potatoes stored in Govern
ment designed houses, Of CONNER
cial size, suffer loss Of from 20
per cent to 40 per cent or more
from rot and shrinkage, while the
patented" houses do not lose

over 6 per cent. This is grossly
misleading in. both instances. The
necessary shrinkage during the
curing process is about 10 per
cent in weight, not bulk. This is
necessary to keep them in good
condition through the storage
season. The surplus water must
be driven off and the Govern
ment-type houses are designed to
do this by heating and ventila-
ton.
There is nothing mysterious or
complicated about the curing of
sweet potatoes. Thorough venti-
lation Immediately following
storage is all that is necessary.
This ventilation can be secured by
the simple expedient of placing
ventilators in the floor and roof
of the storage house. Circulation
Of air is superinduced by a little
heat. A wood or coal stove, a gas
heater or steam pipe will furnish
the necessary heat.

shown an average loss by decay
of less than 2 IL per cent while

SENATOR WILLIAMS SCORES
ASSOCIATES.

Washington. Jan. 13.-Demand-
ing recognition just before adj
journment of the Senate tonight,
Senator Williams, Democrat,
Mississippi, launched into a bitter
attack upon the body for failure
to give what he described as prop
err consideration to the pending
waterpower bill.
A motion to adjourn had been
withdrawn temporarily for pre-
sentation Of two minor bills, and
members were pil;ng out in some
confusion, when the strident voice
Of the Mississippi senator, rising
above the din, brought them to a
halt. Eleven senators remained
and counting six on the Democra-
tic and five on the Republican side
of the chamber, Senator Williams
declared the upper branch Of Con-
gress was paying no attention
whatever to the peoples business.
"The people of this country are
gradually rising to the point
where they demand abolition of
the Senate for failure to func-
tion,'' Senator Williams shouted.
Here is great bill before it and
no attention paid to it, and I am
inclined to agree with Benjamin
Franklin, who declared the Sen
ate Of the United States was Like
the fifth wheel Of wagon.
Again surveying the almost
empty chamber, Senator Williams
said:
''Mr. President. / am almost
tempted to demand quorum, only
it would be too unclu5like. /"
With that, Senator Williams sat
down, and Senator Smith, of
Georgia, on his way out, hat and
overcoat in hand, ended the pro-
ceedings by calling attention to
the fact that the motion to ad-
journ was pending.-T. P.

WE NEED CHEAPER RATE.

The rates now being charged
by railroads on the hauling of
gravel makes it almost prohibi-
tive to haul it and it is proving an
expensive item in the construction
of good roads. Mr.. Barrow, at
tornev of the State railroad COM
mission, is now in Washington
trying to secure a cheaper rate on
gravel, which is hoped he will
succeed in doing. The United
States government is a great adj
vOcate of good roads and has ap-
propriated large sums af money
for this purpose and it look like
it would advocate the very low
est rates possible in getting gravel
delivered to it's destination. It's
great hinderance to the building
of good roads.-Iake Providence

A very serious and sad accident occur
red early this morning just a short dis
lance from town.
One of the motor trucks of Central
Factory used in transporting canes to
La Grange came in contact with a horse
and cart in which one Mr.. Podman and
his wife were going out to their work.
1t is said that Mr.. Milton Jacobs, the
driver, and his assistant were both nod
ding on the truck and unable to hear the
cries of alarm from Mr.. Podman who
was instantly killed together with his
horse, while his wife escaped with some
bruises. This is a sad case and one
which we record with deep sympathy
for both sides.
Mr.. Jacobs is a very polite young man
and we regret that this misfortune should
have been melted to him. An investiga-
ton will be held in the case at 2 o'clock
this afternoon.
This should be a warning to all drivers
