HARVEST OF POTATOES
PROGRESSING RAPIDLY

Chicago, Oct. 1S.-Crop reports
gathered from all parts Of the Unit
ed States for the week ending Oc-
tober 16>are summarized as follows:
With all danger to corn removed
by the late arrival Of frost general
attention has been transferred to
cotton and white potatoes, the har-
vest of which continues. Condition
of cotton is uneven, with picking
continuing for the most part under
favorable conditions. Discussion or
the market features the situation In
this commodity. White potatoes have
been attacked by rot in New England
and the Middle Atlantic states, but
the extent of the damage has not
been ascertained. In Michigan and
other states Of the Upper Mississippi
basin white potatoes are generally
satisfactory, although the Minnesota
crop is uneven. Rain would improve
haylands and pasture and place the
ground in better shape generally FOR
fall wheat seeding. which continues
satisfactorily, however.

WOMEN MAGISTRATES ARE
ADVOCATED FOR CHILDREN

Women magistrates for court deal
ing with chkdren's cases are advo-
Gated in a report just issued by the
British Board of Education, accord
ing to information received by the
Children's Bureau of the U. S. De-
partment of Labor.
Juvenile offenses against the law
are on the increase in England. The
old methods of punishment by whip
ping and imprisonment have failed.
In 1916 the number of young persons
sent to prison totaled $500; in 1918
it has increased to 5000. OF all those
who were punished by detention, one
sixth were back in the court within
a month. Whipping has proved even
more of, failure, one-fourth of the
offenders reappeared in court within
a month.
The treatment of juvenile Offend
ers in England has been greatly i'm
proved since the passage OF the Chill
dren's Act in 1908, but many of the
magistrates have not had sympa!
thetic understanding of child life and
they have not been keen to- avail
themselves Of the many facilities for
considerable treatment placed at their
disposal. The principle of rehabilita-
ton, was recognized in the law, but
the practice has been neglected.
The report recommends that every
juvenile court, not only in the cities
but also in the rural districts which
has to deal with any considerable
number of, offenders should have a
children's probation officer. His duty
would be not only to supervise cases
himself but to secure the cooperation
of teachers, scout masters, officers OF
boys and girls clubs, and other social
organizations so that every child in
his charge should be introduced tc
one or more of these agencies.
