Potatoes Look Like
Bumper Crop With
Hioh Price s
SPuDS WERE BEST BET AFTER
ALL. GOVERNMENT REPORTS
| SHOW NATIONAL SHORTAGE

From the low price Of rs to 90 cents
per hundred weight and no takers, the
lowly spud suddenly jumped to $500
and even $2.25 Mt certain Western
Slope shipping points during the last
week. These prices were SO unexpect-
ed that they dazzled the farmers, who
made haste to sell and have some
what overstocked the market, with
consequent weakening of the price.
No one seemed at first to know
what caused the sudden price boost
with this commission man bidding
against that one, until 1t developed
that advance information had leaked
out concerning government report
showing that due to hot weather,
droughts and disease in July the
national crop showed q drop Of seven
teen points, and was only 65 per cent
Of normal. The estimate showed Il
decrease from the July estimate of
sixty-one million bushels, q drop from
377 ,000, 900 to 316,00O,0O
Only twice since, 1919, the years Of
1911 and 1915, has the crop dropped
below 100000, 900. At times the crop
has exceeded 850,0O0, 900. In 1916,
when the national crop dropped to
$4,000, 900, potatoes sold at 81 and So
sack and farmers cleaned-u for.
tune from their crop.
Dealers say that because of increas
ed consumption since 1916, the present
August estimate indicates a scarcity
equal to that existing in 1915. The
Greeley and Uncompahgre districts
have exceptionally large potato crops
this year and the condition never was
better.
Wednesday the buyers in Western
Slope valleys had formed q combina.
tion again and were forcing the price
down to $1.75 and $1.65. Whereup-
on. the farmers Of Olathe, Montrose,
California mesa and Coal creek mesa
held hastily called indignation meet
ing. and agreed to stop digging spuds
entirely unless at least $500 was re-
ceived. From daily shipments of 2O
to 30 cars, these shipments these last
two days have been nothing, except q
few cars loaded with potatoes already
contracted for. The farmers strike il
a real bona-fde strike for So or bust.
While Gunnison ranchmen were not
heavy planters Of spuds this season,
those who did plant the usual acre
age stand to make a good thing on
the tubers for the condition Of our
crop is also excellent.
The retail price Of potatoes around
Gunnison runs about $500 a hundred
in small lots, but less in 100 pound
sacks.

THE NEW MEXICO was the first

This ship Ii 624 feet long, weighs
$1,000 tons and from the water-line
to the top Of the mast Is as high a.
a ten-story building.
To drive II u knots an hour re-
Quires 2S,O00 horse power. Her Oil
burning engines are fed from tanks
which carry approximately 100000
gallons Of OIL It's nine boilers pro-
duce $1,000 horse power Of steam
energy. This steam turns two tur-
bines which develop $4,000 horse
power. These turbines are marvellous
savers of fuel and space. Each tur-
bine IL connected to an electric gen
orator. Each generator produces
10000 horse power OF electrical
energy.
Huge cables carry this current to
the control board from which the en-
gineer operates the ship. From this
point this power Is sent to four giant
motors Of 1000 horse power each
one OF which Ii attached to each prp-
pelIer shaft.
''Let electricity do It" Is the motto
ON the New Mexico. Electricity re-

Cakes can be sent long distances by
parcel post without so much as crack
ing the icing, if they are packed in
this way Place the cake on a large
sheet of heavy waxed paper and apply
the frosting, allowing a generous por-
ton Of the frosting to extend on the
paper. Plastering the cake to the pa
per helps to keep it in position. Fold
the rest of the paper neatly around the
cake and slip under it piece of card
board or thin board the exact size Of
the cake. Put both cake and board
into a strong cardboard box. A CORFU
gated box IS preferable, as it lessons
tile jar upon its contents. Fill the box
with sawdust or bran. which should

Candles and
Yule Log

~ HltISTAlAS gifts were common
" in Medieval times. Accounts
tell of the chambers guild send
ing out gratis to everyone a special
sort of big, fiat candles which were
burned with the Yule log to light
the houses for the coming of super
natural Christmas visitor. The bak-
erS also sent out 'Yule cakes" or
"Yule babies" which were little i'm
ages of Christ. This custom, in fact.
seems TO be even older, it being re-
corded on the old Roman calendars
that on the Vigil of the Nativity little
images of the Christ Child were made
in great numbers and presented to
the fathers in the Vatican.
Gradually the sentiment of Peace
on earth, good will to men" and the
celebration of the spirit by general
gifts seems TO have spread through
the other guilds, and finally to have
become general.
In England today there is survival
of the ancient custom practiced by
landowners of setting big sacks o..
grain or other products outside the
gate that whoever came might help
himself. 1t is said that an extra
Christmas eve feed is also still given
to the cattle.

SETTING UP

IN AIMOsT every corner grocer

IN / ALMOST every corner grocer :
~ stands can be purchased very
cheaply that will hold the Christ
mas tree firmly in position.
rhe simplest of these consists Of II
crossp;ece of wood raised little from
the floor by wooden supports and haN-
ing a hole in the center to insert the
trunk Of the tree.
More elaborate ones take the forln
Of wooden square, painted a bright
red and surrounded by u low wooden
railing.
Country jewellers who cannot pur-
chase these trees at The corner store.
but have to cut them in the nearest
wood lot, must devise some other way
of holding the Christmas tree in posi-
tion.
The easiest way to do this, if the
tree is not too large and heavy, is to
insert the trunk into the hole through
the bottom of a wooden box, aud
either paint this box green or red or
cover it with green or red paper.
A starch box will hold up small
tree perfectly, but somewhat larger
box must be chosen for one Of larger
growth If, in spite Of all precautions.
the tree seems too heavy and is in
clined to wobble. weight the box ON
either side with heavy stones. Some
times the box is filed with sand, the
trunk planted in that, and then the
wooden cover nailed in place to max,
all very solid.
If one has any talent for carpentry.
even of the toughest sort. an effective
support can be made by mailing two
pieces of wood in the shape Of q
square cross. holding the tree upon
this and mailing clcats to both trPc
and support until ii stands firmly.
A very pretty effect can be ohtainet
by covering the support of the tree

alteration around the crib

accents of love history which
precedeS all time and will en-
dure throughout eternity. As if
by an instinct of our higher,
spiritual nature, there well up
from the depths of our heart
emotions which challenge the
power of human expression. We
seem To be lifted out of the
