DUBLIN SHIPPED
lSCARSOF Vans
Last Car Goes Out
Farmers Cot Good
Prices

DUBLIN. Mao 23.-The Dublin
Sweet Potato House is shipping the
last car of kiln dried potatoes this
week, for the season. There has
been a steady flow of kiln dried po-
tatoes going from the house to the
various markets since Dec. II, when
the first car was shipped to Middles-
b0ro, Ky. Since that date from one
to two cars a week, almost every
week have been shipped. All told,
including the banked potatoes that
the house shipped, about l 8 cars have
been handled during the season.
The potato house purchased from
the farmers last fall 100000 pounds
of potatoes and about 100000
pounds of banked potatoes this
spring The farmers were paid S1.25
per hundred pounds for their green
potatoes in October and November,
or they were given the privilege OF
storing their potatoes at twenty cents
per crate storage. However, only
$50 crates We're stored by the own
ers, which goes to show that grow
ers of these various commodities
want the money for the commodity
when it is ready for the market
While speaking of the success OF
the plant this year, one of the man
agements stated that on account of
the slump in prices of sweet pota
toes, along with everything else, the
company had failed to make any
money, hut that the promoters are
proud of the fact that this industry
is now established, and will remain
a;permanent fixture for this commu-
nifty. The farmers were paid twenty
five cents per hundred more for their
green potatoes in the fall than in
other sections, but this was done to
encourage them to grow the crops.
When asked how the potatoes kept
the official said "they kept very
nicely, except that there is a big
shrinkage from bss in weight even
if they don't decay
'The acreage to sweet potatoes this
year will be much more than it was
last year." it was stated. When ask
ed whether the house would purchase
potatoes again this fall, he said, Eve
expect to buy them at the market
price, but we will have to insist on
their being graded according to gov
eminent grading. We found in
handling this last years crop that
the markets will not take potatoes
that are not put up as they should
be-"

CHILDREN'S SAVINGS.

The San Francisco board of educa-
ton proudly announces that the school
children of that city have $1,600,00O in
savings bank deposits and in small gov
eminent securities. The manager of
the school savings department of local
bank proudly declares the sum far in ex-
cess of the thrift record of any other
city in the United States. The nearest
approach to it is in Oakland, Cal, and
amounts to only little more thansone-
seventh of the San Francisco total.
This is very interesting and probably
highly commendable.> Yet before offer
ing congratulations to those youthful saw
ers there are a few things it would be in
teresting to know about them. Where
did they get the money they have saved
so successfully? Did they earn it, and if
so, how? Did parents give it to them
for the purpose of increasing their saw
ings accounts and then give them still
more to spend on candy and movies?
What are they planning to do with it
later on? Are they learning how to
spend wisely along with learning to save
well?
The accumulation of money without
knowledge either of honest earning or
| constructive spending is of little worth
to the saver. There are far too many
grOwn-ups who have never acquired the
happy balance of earning, spending and
saving ability which is true thrift If
the San Francisco school children are
learning that in their youth, then their
one and half million dollars sets a
splendid example to other communities.
Otherwise it is worthless.

THE EIGHT WEEKS NURSE.

DR. John Dill Robertson. health COM
missioner of Chicago, has been training
nurses in two months. He says the work
lis a success. The average age of the wo-
men who have attended the classes has
been forty Most of the women have
been housewives of experience, which
means. according to DIR. Robertson, that
their fingers are skilful and adept. "WO-
men who all their lives have been lift
ing roasts from the pan so as not to
splash themselves with hot grease find
nothing new in lifting surgical instru-
ments from their place. They need only
a training in the fundamentals of nurs-
ing. and that, we have found, they get
readily in eight weeks" The course is
similar to those given by the Red Cross
but goes a little further.
The registered nurses of long and ar
duous training need fear nothing from
the competition of the shOrt-term nurses
average citizen will agree with him
There are cases of gravity when only the
registered nurse is safe to employ. But
| for every such case there are a dozer
where such nursing skill and knowledge
as could readily be gained in such q
course as DR.. RObertsOn's would be in,
valuable. Too many families cannot af
| ford the salary of the registered nurse
yet would be glad to have a practical
nurse of such quality as the eight
weeks training would insure. The aver.
age practical nurse has no training at all
outside her own experience. She may
be useful or she may be dangerous. More
over, the great shortage of registered
nurses makes such stop-gap as this
seem doubly useful. Many lives might
have been saved in every community dur
ing the recent influenza epidemic if such
q corps of women had been available.

WANTS 10 PER CENT INCREASE.
Boston & Maine President Urges Higher
Rates in New England.

BOSTON. March 17-President James
III. Hustis of the Boston & Maine, who ap-
peared yesterday at the state house be-
fore the committee appointed by the gov
+ ernors of the New England states to in
vestigate the request of the railroads for
| q 10 per cent rate increase. said he pre-
ferred not to answer a question as TO
whether the increase was urged Ito save
the New Haven road from going into the
hands of a receiver" He did say that in
his opinion the other roads of New Eng
land would not be forced into receviership
| If the raise were not granted.
Mr.. HuStis presented long statement
and then submitted to questioning by the
committee members. In the course of the
Questioning he admitted the Boston x
Maine sis on the edge of a receiyership
again, but an attempt is being made to
keep the road off the rocks" He declared
with emphasis that immediate relief is
necessary.
The Boston & Maine ought to be able.
he said, to pay fixed charges without the
proposed advance, but to make necessary
repairs, he said, an advance is imperative.
He said the Boston & Maine was not
dragged into the request for an increase
by the condition oof the New Haven, but
by conditions on the Boston & Maine. lie
admitted that the Boston & Maine if left
to itself could survive until a settlement
OF the wage dispute was made"
He said a wage reduction of 20 per cent
would mean saving of S1O,0O0,O00 a
year.
Unless the credit of the roads is estab-
Iished there Is only one alternative and
that is government ownership" he de-
clared.
The New Haven is the weakest spot in
the New England system and the Rutland
Bangor & Aroostook, Boston & Albany
and the Maine Central would not have
asked for the increase on their own initia-
tive, Mr.. HustiS said

Vermont seems to be following in the
footsteps of New Hampshire in protect
ing its highways against the ravages of
heavy trucks during the spring months.
\ bill which gives the selectmen the right
to close roads to trucks while the frost
is coming out of the ground already has
passed the house and gone to a third
reading in the senate, and unless some
thing unforeseen happens it should be-
come a law shortly. Town officials
throughout Windham county will do
well to watch the progress of this meas
ure and familiarize themselves with its
provisions at the earliest possible mo-
ment, for right now is the time when
many of our roads are so torn up by
heavily laden trucks that they do not re-
cover from the effects for months if at
all. Theoretically, of course, the thing
to do is to build highways to meet the
demands of increasing truck traffic, but
so long as the state of Vermont's fl
nances makes that impossible the next
best thing is to protect such highways
as we can afford.

SAGE TEA DARKENS
HAIR TO ANY SHADE
Don't Stay Gray! Here's a Simple
Recipe That Anybody Can Apply
With a Hair Brush

The use of Sage and Sulphur for re-
storing faded, gray hair to its natural
color dates back to grandmother's time.
She used it to keep her hair beautifully
dark. glossy and attractive. Whenever
her hair took on that dull, faded or
streaked appearance, this simple mixture
was applied with wonderful effect.
But brewing at home is mussy and
Out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at any
drug store for bottle Of "Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound you will get this
famous old preparation, improved by the
addition of other ingredients, which can
be depended upon to restore natural color
and beauty to the hair.
A well-known downtown druggist says
it darkens the hair SO naturally and
evenly that nobody can tell it has been
applied. You simply dampen a sponge or
soft brush with it and draw this through
your hair, taking one strand at time.
BY morning the gray hair disappears, and
after another application or two it be-
comes beautifully dark and glossy.-Adv.
