expected to continue at top speed
 until next fall, by which time that
 village will be materially greater
 than it is at present and homes will have been provided for approximately
 1000 more people than are living
 there at present. Goodyear will swarm

 mer season. for a schoolhouse, to cost
 at least s100,000, is included in the

 With farm labor seareer than ever
 and more reluctant to engage in the
 tillihg~of the soil, there is a sugges-
 tion as to what potatoes and othet
 vegetables will cost next winter in
 the quotation of $1 a peck for pota-
 toes in Danielson, which is surround
 ed by potato growing country. From
 S5 to $T a bushel is the price that the
 consumer will pay next winter, if a
 bumper crop of potatoes is not grown during the coming season. That 2
 bumper crop will not be grown now seems assured, for the farmers are not in a position to grow them. It is
 being suggested here that the only alternative of the head of a house held who does not like to pay $1 8 peck and looks appalled, when he is told that he may have to pay s2 g peck next winter, is to re-adopt the
 home garden programme that was st
 popular during the war. If he does not grow them himself. hell have tt
 pay the price asked, whatever it may be, and it is going to be sky high, al the farmers say.
