The dinner given by the ladies OF
the trustees to the ladies of the fac
ulty on Tuesday afternoon at the
home of Mrs. Henry w. Cakes was
great success. About fifty ladies

An experiment that will interest all
Aroostook potato growers is being
tried on the farm of l.. X. Porter in
Hodedon.
Eight acres OF land on which po-
tatoes were grown in 1921 was disced
the last week in August. as soon as
the crop was harvested. and winter
rye seeded at the tate of IL bush
els per acre. In spite of the dry fall
the seed terminated quickly and
made rapid growth until covered
by the early snowfall.
It is Mr.. Porters intention to de-
lay blowing the ground in the spring
until the rye makes good growth,
turning it under the latter part Of

May as green manure and planting

May as green manure and planting
potatoes Immediately.
BY the use of cover crops such as
rye the farmers of New Jersey
and Long Island are able to grow
potatoes year after year on the same
ground without any ill effect being
noticed either on the soil or the
quality Of the tubers.
AS a rule in Aroostook the pota-
toes grown after the first planting
on sod are inferior in quality and the
yield is apt to prove Disappointing.
Mr. Portcr's experiment will be
eagerly watched by local growers.

CoNvIcTS ESCAPE
IN STOLEN AUTO

Atlanta, Oct. 20.-Chancy Fox
and r. C. Goodwin, white convicts
at the Sandy Springs camp, on the
Roswell road, made their escape ear
y Wednesday afternoon in an auto
mobile, Belonging to J. D. Gisson, a
guard at the convict camp, accord
ing to reports received at county
police headquarters.
According to officials at the camp
Fox and Goodwin noticed Mr.. Glis-
sons approach and as soon as they
saw him leave the car they crept
out to where it was parked, started
the engine and dashed down the Ros-
we'll road towards Atlanta at a high
rate of speed. Guards at the camp
pursued them in another car, but
the convicts made their get away.
Fox and Goodwin, who are both
twenty-one years of age, were, it is
sad, conYicted on charges of automo-
bile stealing. Fox was serving a
sentence of from three to four years
Of which he already had served two
years, while Goodwin had done one
year of a sentence of from two to
four years.
Officials at the, camp anticipate
their capture shortly as they were
both garbed in their convict attire.
Both men were serving in the ca
pacity of cooks at the camp. -.

pondent of The Journal Of the Amer

according to the report Of the Ger
man imperial slaughter houses and
meat inspection Offices during the
second quarter in 1910-that is,
during three months meat of
3,642 dogs was subjecten to inspec-
ton, 2,301 in Saxony alone. The
number of horses slaughtered was
twice that of peace time. There was
such demand for horseflesh that the
number slaughtered could easily have
been ten times that of peace time,
but there was shortage of horses in
Germany owing to difficulty in i'm
portation.
With the rise in the number Of
horses slaughtered there was de-
crease in the slaughtering of calves
and pigs. The traffic in these animals
was not more than one-fortieth that
of peace time.
