VON LERSNER NOT UPHELD
Refused To Accept Note Demanding ExtraditiOn Disclaimed in Home.

Berlin, Feb. 5.-Baron Kurt von Ter sner's refusal to accept the allies note regarding the extradition of accused Germans was not in accordance with instructions he had received from Der lin. The German government has re- luested him to receive it, but he asked by telegraph for permission to retire and his resignation was immediately accepted.
 Baron von Lersner had received ex- rlicit orders to transmit the expected allied note on extradition demands to his government. (Paris advices quote Von Lersner as declaring he had re- signed rather than transmit the list of Germans demanded by the allies.)
 The list of Germans whose extradi- tion is demanded began to arrive here over the official wire from Paris at II o'clock this morning. The first name to be ticked off was that of Duk Albrecht of Wurttemberg.

Sweet Potatoes Will Net
 The Grower from S2OO
 to $500 Per Acre Yearly

We have received letter from E. F. Gilmore, president of the Southland Sweet Potato Curing and Storage As sociation of Dallas, Texas, which is very interesting to sweet potato grow CTS of this county, and we print the letter below:
 "The proper storage of sweet pota- toes is one of the most important food conservation measures that can be put into effect in the southern states, The sweet potato ranks second as food crop in the South and with each pass ing year is growing in importance as commercial truck crop in the United States,
 "It is our purpose to erect scientifi- cally constructed sweet potato curing and storage plants throughout the southern states, and it will mean many thousands of dollars to any community to have one of these plants. It will mean from fifty to two hundred per CciI plOuC tO luOoC WlIO IHFCot lilCii money in one of them. The farmer can make from $2OO to $500 per acre from his land, and that will bring more to your community than the cot ton crop or any other crop. There is no business where the profits are so large and so certain as in the sweet potato industry when they are cured and stored under the Wells-Southland System, which has been in use for six years and is a proven success.
 We have forty-one curing plants in successful operation and have already closed for fourteen more to be erected this season. If you are interested kindly let us hear from you and we will have our representative for your state call and see you and go into every detail of the proposition without any obligation on your part We are mailing you literature under separate cover, which you will find very inter- esting. Trusting that we may have the pleasure of hearing from you"

GRAIN GRANTED RIGHT OF WAY
Hines Orders Railroads to Move Middle
 Western Crops,

Washington, Feb. 6-TO remedy con- gested condition of grain elevators throughout the Middle West, Director General Hines today issued general orders to railroads serving the grain producing area which in effect turn all available box car equipment into the grain transportation to the exclusion of practically all other traffic.
 The orders provide for the special movement of grain during the 1O- day period beginning February 8. Railroads affected serve the states of Illinois, Minnesota, Montana, Missou- ri, iowa, North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Arkansas. Texas and New Mexico.
 Explaining his action, MT. Hines issued tie following statement:
 'Because of the imperative neces- sity of providing greater movement of 3ulk grain, the grain-loading rail- roads serving the grain-producing states, have been given instructions to give preference and priority to the furnishing of box cars for bulk grain loading from February to 1S. inclusive, after providing for the loading of less than carload mer- chandise, print paper wood pulp and sugar. This means that the extent necessary to fill requirements, all the available box-car equipment suitable for use in the handling of these com modities. will be confined to this one class of traffic.
 "The railroads also have been in- structed to secure the full co-opera- tion of grain dealers, distributors, farmers, commercial organizations and other commercial interests in order that this special movement may be as sccessful as possible

The Return of the Sun

1t is easy to feel sympathy with
the ncient sun worshippers, as one
eagerly looks for the return of the
source of all life, in these days of
early spring. Man was born to live
in open air When he has to shut
himself up in an artifically heated
house, he is not following nature. He
is exposing himself to unwholesome
conditions and diseases.
Every days ascent of the sun
brings sentiment of good cheer.
Evidences of reviving Vegetation, the
welcome songs of birds, the resump-
tion of farm tasks along the country
roads. these and other influences
bring pleasant feeling of anticipa-
ton to the people of Delta.
The autumn is the season for retro
spection, often melancholy. There
is a forward look in the spring, when
balmy airs fill one with hope and e4-
pectation of better things. The sea
son when the sap runs is the time
when mans heart plans new achieve
ments.
