HOW TO KEEP YOUR SWEET PO-
TATOES

Successful storage of sweet pOta-
toes depends to large extent on har-
vesting the crop at the right time,
careful handling. properly curing the
potatoes in the storage house, and in
telIigent house management, says the
N. c. Division of Horticulture, which
gives the following directions for
harvesting:
1T is advisable to harvest the crop
slightly immature rather than to risk
the injurious effects of frost or cold
weather A frosted potato or a cold

injured potato will not keep.

while frosted vines are not al
ways fatal to the crop, it is safer to
dig the potatoes before the first frost.
If the vines have been touched with
frost, cut them away and harvest the
potatoes as soon as possible. Write
to the Weather Bureau, Raleigh, N. c.
for the average date of the first frost
in your section, and plan to harvest
bright and the soil dry.

vesting and handling in determining

may remain on the ground for a few
hours on mild, clear days, but if har-
vested on hot day they should be
placed in the shade as soon as they
dry off. 1t is desirable to grade in
the field into the crates in which they
are to be stored. Always avoid rough
handling. The cut and bruised po-
tatoes should be stored separately
from the main crop, for immediate
use at home'

The future looks brighter for the

thereafter. This years crop in North

WOULD STANDARDIZE
FARM IMPLEMENTS

In view of the prominence of
Rock Island county in the manufac-
ture of agricultural implements,
members of the farm bureau are
taking a lively interest in an an
nouncement printed in the current
issue OF the Illinois Agricultural
association news letter that a
committee of four on standardfx-
alton OF farm machinery is to be
appointed by the American Farm
Bureau federation.
The appointment was requested
by a conference recently held in
the general offices of the American
association, at which, in addition to
the farm bureau, the National AS
ISOLATION of Farm Implement Man
ufacturers. the National Imple-
ment and Vehicle Dealers associa-
ton, and the American Association
of Agricultural Engineers were
represented.

has no other purpose than to pro-
vide gifts for those who might be
overlooked on childhood's happtest
day or the year. The Argus Santa
Claus fund does not dispense char
ity. 1t should not be regarded az
a. charitable agency. Many OF the
families whose children receive
gifts through The Argus Santa
Claus fund would refuse to accent
charity. They are folks who are
merely temporarily in such circum-
stances that they are unable to in
vest in luxuries. Christmas gifts
are luxuries, but they are necessi-
ties in keeping alive the beautiful
faith OF innocent childhood.

Commodore. Perry opened Japan to
the world in 1854, when he obtained
the Shogun's signature to a treaty of
peace, amity and commerce with the
United States. The formal commercial
treaty was not signed until July 20,
1858. 1t was not the American policy
to seek exclusive privileges. Townsend
Harris, our negotiator, tactfully ex-
planned to the Shogun's agents that
it would be advisable for them to make
treaty with this country which
would serve them in good stead as
model and protection when the
European naval powers came along
later and demanded treaties. Mr..
Harris practiced the open door prin-
ciple even then, and japan profted
by his friendly suggestions.
When General Grant visited the
Orient in 1879 and was asked to .arbi-
trate the Ryukyu Islands and Corean
suzerainty disputes between China and
Japan, he said to the two nations:
America has great commercial in
terests in the Far East, but she has
no interests, and can have none, that
are inconsistent with the complete
independence and wellbeihg of all
Asiatic nations, especially Japan and
China. 1t is the policy of
America in the Orient, and I may say
it is the law Of our empire in the
Pacific, that the integrity and inde-
pendence of China and Japan should
be preserved and maintained"

the end of the matter; but again IL
wasn't. For it has been solemnlv suc-
gested that the wrecking Of Newnhan
gates was an exhibition Of sex antas-
onsm that has been developing at
Cambridge since women first invaded
the university.
Possibly the women undergraduates
themselves have hit upon something
like the true explanation. "They're
Jealous of thcm," is the terse sum.

the Women's Freedom League, Of the
mems attitude to the women. "Yes."
says a woman graduate who has just
come down from Cambridge, where,
she declares, even women who have
won fellowships are leaving because
the men behave so 'badly--"thcy resent
our success in examinations. The rca!
trouble is that the women at Cam
bridge work harder than the yncn, and
this annoys some of the undcrgradu-
ates very Seriously
1t is q plausible explanation at
first sight. Yet it appears to fall down
in face of the experience of the sister
university Of Oxford, where women
already are admitted on precisely the
same terms as men. There is little
question that at Oxford, as at Cam
bridge. the women undergraduates,
whether they work harder or not, do
seem to get away with most of the
scholastic successes. Witness this vail
of an Oxford undergraduate published
in the university magazine:
..I have read for two years with crammer.
But all can get Is q Gamma,
While that girl over there,
With the flaming red hatr,

Yet there is no trouble between men
and women undergraduates at Oxford

each other. It was their true policy,
he argued, to give no cause for self
seeking interference on the part Of
European nations. "Your quarrels," he
said, "are their opportunity for un-
friendly intervention, and il war should
ensue between the two countries over
either Of these questions the powers
of Europe will end it in their own
way, in their own interests and to the
lasting and incalculable injury of both
nations" This prophecy was amply
fulfilled when Japan and China did go
to war over Corea in. 1894.
In the treaty Of Shimonoseki, April
II, 1895, China ceded to japan For
mosa, the Pescadores Islands and the
Liaotung Peninsula and acknowledged,
the independence of Corea. But the
European powers saw their opportunity
and interviewed. Germany, France and
Russia compelled Japan to cedc back
Liaotung. Then a European scramble
for Chinese leaseholds and spheres Of
influence began. Germany had already
fixed her eyes on Kiaochow. In Novem-
Der, 1897, two German missionaries
were murdered in the interior Of Shan
tung Province. In addition to the Gus.
tomary reparations Berlin demanded
ninety-nine-year lease on Kiaochow
and railway and mining rights in Shan
ting. Russia countered by securing
twenty -fve-year lease of Port Arthur,
Dalny and the southern part of the
Liaotung Peninsula. Weihaiwei fell to
Great Britain. France received the Bay
Of Kwangchow, in Kwantung Province.
Great Britain then secured lease of
the Kowloon Peninsula, opposite Hong
Kong. Italy asked for lease of San
men Bay, in Chekiang, but China felt
strong enough to refuse it.
European "spheres of influence" were
also established. France secured q
promise in 1897 that China would
never cede the Island Of Hainan to any
other foreign, power. Great Britain
put insa first claim on territory ad-
