AFTERMATH

The war, they say, is over, but we're paying
taxes yet.
We have to give until il hurts, and so we do
you bet.
The income tax hits some OF US and hits u,

We'se taxed lot for "luxuries," though some
OF them we need,
And prices shoot up all the time because Of
some ones greed.
We have to pay what dealers ask without a
chance to choose.
And the eobblers charge three dollars to re.

The workingman is master now, he fixes his
own pay
He wants to work two hours a week for
fifteen dollars a day
The wretch who gets salary sees his hap

He'd like 10 get an increase. but he gets Il. in
the neck.
The wicked war drew in its train death. misery
and debt
We're suffering from its evils. and we can't

obtainable when the solution is first
made, additional eggs may be added
from time to time. Be very careful
to allow at least two inches OF the SOL

preserved eggs in a cool, dry place

First Crop of Potatoes
as Seed for Second Crop.
AS many farmers are showing IN
terest in the using of first crop po-
tatoes as seed for the second crop
the writer believes it wise to take this
subject up in this column again. The
following precaution should be taken:
(D Dig the first crop as soon as
possible
(2) Use only we'll matured stock
(3) Place the potatoes in a shady
place, if possible under a tree where
there will be shade but not in the
direct sunlight.
(4) Sprinkle once each day with
water.
(5)Do not cover with straw.
Coz Plant only seed that has put out
sprouts.
This method has in some cases CIV
en- good results, however in many in
stances poor stands have resulted
from the improper care of the seed
before planting. The stand secured
will depend entirely from the care of
the first crop after digging until they
are planted. 1t usually takes from two
to three weeks to prepare seed for
planting, by using this method it will
probably be advisable to wait as late
as August 10, if necessary, to plant
the second crop in order that the seed
may be we'll sprouted
