II racing in the metropolitan district
were to begin next week there would be
a host Of horses ready for the starter on
the opening day. There are hundreds
OF them stabbed at Belmont Park. and
almost all OF them are ready to be let
down. Because Of the open winter they
are far more advanced than in former
years. and practically every stable has
several representatives stepping along
smartly.
Those which are going TO Havre de
Grace and Pimlico are further advanced
in their training than those which VIII

SWEET We POTATO STORAGE
HOUSE FOR HEWgBERlRl!!Y !!

Some time ago movement was
launched by the Chamber OF Com
,merce in cooperation with the eoun-
;ay agent to build a sweet potato
storage house in Newbery. After dls-
.cussing the different phases Of the
proposition, Mr.. W. S. Matthews
secretary of the chamber OF COM
smerce, guaranteed the building of the
shosse provided we would get SO far
asiners 70 pledge to plant an acre OF po-.
aatoes Eat each. T. M. Mills, county
ssagent, was appointed q committee OF
lone tossecure the pledges. Through
the cooperation Of, w. S. Matthews
T. M. SeaweH aud T. E. Keitt, pledg-,
ses for more than SO acres have been
secured. While this assures the
house, we shall be glad for more far
ners to plant potatoes for storage in
this. house. Just make application
to the chamber Of commerce to re-
serve you storage room and if you
haven't the plants he will tell you
sswhere you can get them.
Potatoes banked in the old way
!; suffer an average loss of about SO per
cent.
Potatoes cured in the modern stor-
aee r., house. not more than 5 per cent.
Potatoes banked. the old way will
not stand shipping.
Potatoes cured in the storage house
viii ship well.
The average yield Of sweet pota-,
toes per acre for this state is about
!, 100 bushels. This yield can be dou-
bIed. .e,,
| A rich sandy loam soil is best suited
for them. It should not be extreme
Nv rich. Rows should be 8 to 8 II
feet wide. Plants should be set about
10 inches apart.
7 Apply 800 pounds acid phosphate
800 pounds kainit and 200 pounds
!. cotton seed meal per acre or SOo
!, : pounds of a s-2-5 fertilizer.
! About 10000 plants are required
to set an acre. It is more economical!
to set about 2,o00 plants early and set
|: the remainder from cuttings of the
vines. The vine cuttings usually pro-
| duce the smoothest and best potatoes
and they are not so likely to be dis
ieased. Nancy Halls and Porto Rlcos
have proven to be the best keepers
, and the best sellers.

tracts from a letter appearing in edi-
torial column of The State of the
10th, written by Thomas Nelson Page,
former ambassador to Italy, after
having visited the American cenle-
teries in France we were more strong
ly convinced of the wisdom of the le-
gion's stand. We wish to quote one
paragraph of this letter. In speak
ing of the cemetery at Romange'
where over $4,000 American boys
lie, he says:
eve were told that the bodies were
to be exhumed. Standing there 1t
seemed incredible. 1t seemed desc
Grafton to dig them up. 1t would be
impossible could those who loved them
best see their present resting place.
When General Lee was asked to lend
his name to plan to remove the
Confederate dead from Gettysburg he
replied that he had always felt that
the fittest resting place for soldier
was the field Of honor on which ne
had nob1y laid down his life. We
knew as we stood there that ne was
right"
The graAss Of those who rest in
France Will not be forgotten by the
Legion on Memorial day, May goth:
The Paris post this year as last will
hold memorial services in every AM
erican cemetery in France, and the
graves Of those who sleep far from
.thie; beaten track as well will have
their. wsreaths and flags. In Great
Britain, Belgium, wherever Amerl-
can soldiers and sailors lie, their
graves will be tended by men Of the
legion. The solemn obligation OF the
legion in America to remember the
comrades who rest overseas is empha-
sized ii: a bulletin issued by national
headquarters asking for funds for the.
decoration Of A. E. F. graves, which
win be directed by the department OF
France. It IS requested that each de-
p,artment raise a sum equal to ten
cents a member and that 40 post con-
tribute less than $500. Post No. 24
has already forwarded a contribution.
/ wonder how, many veterans IN TINS
community who have not lined up
with the legion have or will contribute
TO this fund. Is it not true that the
legion post is the spokesman fer the
ex-service men Of that community! !
There are still a number of @smen an
Newberrry who should join Post Mo-.
"a. If you don't like the way it is
run you can come nearer changing
it's policies from the inside thar the
outside. Join the American heglen :.

HERE'S A NOVEL WAY
TO GET A DOCTOR

There is more than one way to see
a doctor, but the most original way
vet is the one taken by Mabel Nor
mand in "What Happened to Rosa"
It is way that started simply enough
but ended in hand to hand combat
in a coal cellar, from which she
emerged to be hit by vegetable
cart, then to the doctor.
She got there at last, and what
happened afterwards may be seen in
the Goldwyn picture, which comes to
the opera house Thursday. what
Happened to Rosa," is the story OF a
hard-working shop girl, who glimpsed
romance afar-off untii-but see the
