CHINESE BOWLS FOR
KENTUCKY SCHOOL S


Paper bowls, miniature of those
seen throughout China, have been
received from New York by the
China Famine Fund in Louisville.
of which Rev. E. Y. Mullins is
chairman. Within these paper
bowls are small morseIs of the
only food that is sustaining life in
the 100000 inhabitants of the
famine area in North Central
China; a coarse flour made from
tree bark. dry leaves and roots.
which is pulverized and mixed
with water to be baked into
cakes.
The purpose of these miniature
bowls is to bring home to the
school children and Sunday
School pupils the plight of the
Chinese and to give them an idea
of the great catastrophe which
will go down in history as the
great famine of China.
DIR. Mullins announces that he
will send to any school teacher or
Sunday School teacher supply
of these bowls to be shown to the
class. Through this medium it
is expected that the plight of the
Chinese will be brought home to
the children of Kentucky, says
DIR. Mullins.

Prices Higher Where
 Curing Plant. is Located

The benefits and effect which the building of sweet potato; curing houses has on the tract price of green potatoes may be judged by the comparison of prices paid at Texarkana where there are many potato curing houses with prices paid on the dates at Magnolia where storage facilities are inadequate" says w. II. Laney, assistant market ing agent. Agricultural Extension Division. University of Arkan- sas.
 During the second week of November green potatoes were selling for 90 cents to 54 cents a bushel at Magnolia. while at TeXarkana the price was 70 cents a bushel. Even the larger markets reflected the effect of the curing houses. The price of potatoes in Kansas City and S'. Louis in the beginning of the digging season was Sl. OO q bush el. but as the storage houses bepan to fill the price at Kansas City, and St. Louis and other markets went to $l.25. $l.50 and $l. 75 a bushel by December l. The opposite would have pro- bably occurred without oar cur ing houses. ''

Another Source of Revenue

One source of revenue that has been developed here more than in other localities and which could be developed here more than is now is the raising of sweet potatoes. 1t will be re- that sweet potatoes sold on track here just a short time ago at $l. co per bushel net which is pretty good price even when conditions are normal but now when 1t is difficult. to sell anything for a profit it might be considered excellent. any one who has raised sweet potatoes know that they can be raised at a profit at one dollar.
 The principal cause that will prevent expansion of sweet po- tato growing is the lack of stor- age space. In this connection the cooperation curing house that has been so successful in other localities should prove the solution, nor wonld it be difficult to finance or build, In southern Arkansas around TeXarkana, Hope, Ashdown. Prescott and other places they have foand that the cost has ranged during the past four years at around 80 cents per bushel for the cap acity of the house. Building. mat erial is cheaper now and the cost should not exceed Ga. cents per bushel.
 It has been been found that the difference in price between green potatoes in the fall at hg- ging time and the price of cured potatoes in the spring is sullic- tent to build the house and oper. ate it, The plan that has been followed at the places mentioned is as follows, Sufficient acreage is pledged to fiil the house then the growers give their notes for dollar per bushel for the space they expect to require. half of these notes are payable in the spring following the building of the house and the ether half is the other half is payable the next spring after that is fifty cents of each note is payable the first spring following the erection of each note IS payable the other fifty cents is payable the second spring following.
 With these notes as security. d loan is obtained and the building built. When the potatoes are soll the first notes due are paid and the balance of the sale price is paid to the grower, There has never been a case when the grow CT got less for his potatoes than he could have gotten for them at digging time, After the second year. when the last note is paid. the building belongs to the grow CTS who gave their notes as se- curity to build it.
 A hundred acres at the aver age yield of one hundred bushels per acre would fill a ten thousand bushel house, and there are sure lv one hundred farmers within four or five miles of Ozark who would raise one CT more acres of potatoes 10 go in it. As a source of income 1t Is sure. something you cannot say of any other crop at the present.
 Potatoes should be bedded late in this month or early month and there should be something done to get the acreage required to warrant building house of the size mention
 The writer will do anything he can to help the cause.
