LOOKING TO LEON
HOWE AT MIAMI TO
STOP PROFITEERINC

Earnest Miami women who have
been harrassed by high prices and,
worse still, by the consciousness that
they were being gouged by profiteers'
have means now Of proving to them
selves whether they have been actu-
a,ly swindled or whether the seem
ingIy too-high prices are not the out
come of any local profiteering.
This opportunity is given them
through the presence in Miami OF a
federal agent whose business 1t is to
run down reports of over-charglng
and investigate prices that are re
ported to be unreasonable or unfair.
Mr., Howe's office is in the federal
building and he is DESTROYS OF doing
all that can be done to eliminate over
charging and investigate prices thot
are reported TO be unreasonable or
unfair.
It must be remembered, however,
that the only way that Mr.. Howe, or
any federal agent engaged in this an
ti.profiteering work, can get results is
through the intelligent cooperation
of the people, especially the women,
who buy supplies. When you are ov-
er-charged or think you are over
charged, carry full data to the federal
agent, and find just what the trouble
if. It may be your own minunder-
standing or it may be an uninten-
tional mistake of the dealer.
One thing is certain, the honest
merchant welcomes these investiga
tons. He is not making unreason
able profits and he is glad to have his
customers see his invoice lists ant
understand his efforts to do bushes:
in a fair and honest way.

MORE ABOUT BATHING SUITS

The modesty or immodesty of a
woman in a bathing suit is not affect
ed in any way by the wearing OF
stockings. Those who spend their
time trying to regulate women
bathing attire ought to be arrested
for vagrancy. --Tarpon Springs Lead

Stockings serve to attract attention
to the portion of the anatomy they
adorn, provided the stockings are
made of silk. And silk stockings cost
a lot these days, and the salt water
ruins them quickly, so it is best to
wear none at all. The skin does mo-.
wear out, nor does it run" as does a
silk stocking.
Bathing suits are matters for the
individual to decide. The Rambler re-

UPPER VALLEY POTATO
ACREAGE is LARGER

J. F. Thompson. Upper Valley
rancher. says that the Upper Valley
potato acreage will be increased about
Is per cent this year. The district
shipped 80 carloads of high class tubers
last season and several caloads were
lost as a result of frost. Mr.. Thomp-
son predicts that the 1920 crop will
reach 1875 carloads.
I'VE plant Melted Gems and Ameri-
can Wonder chiefly" says Mr. Thomp-
son. The latter variety gives a yield
of about 25 bags more to the acre, but
higher percentage of Melted Gems
are marketed as first class product.
"At present we are IN need OF good
rain in our district. Because of much
reconstruction work. our irrigation
plant was late in starting the delivery
of water this year. The hay crop of
