He didn't like
white bread-or
ready-rubbed tobacco
And probably he preferred
horsecars to the trolley

He admitted frankly that his tastes
were peculiar. He didn't know why. It
was Just a matter Of fact that while he
was an inveterate pipe smoker, he
never smoked Edgeworth.
"But don't let that worry you. I
don't like white bread. And there are
many other things that nearly every

We have always recognized that no
one tobacco would Just hit the taste
of every pipe smoker. We have always
known, too, that we couldn't make all
the pipe tobacco in the world even II
itwere possible to make a tobacco that
everybody liked.
So we have been content to Jog
along, seeking and finding men who
do like Edgeworth, who find its indi-
vidualfragrance exactly suited to their
taste.
Those are the men we want to smoke
Edgeworth. If we can give them the
full Joy Of smoking and keep our fac
tories running somewhere near capac-
ity, it is about all we expect-and it Is
enough.
One thing we do want to be sure Of.
It is this: That every pipe-smoker try
Edgeworth at least once and judge
for himself whether or not it is the

DISCUSS BUILDING PROBLEMS
Standardization Of Specifications and
Tests for Road Materials Are
Being Made.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture)
The committee on tests of the Ameri-
can Society of State Highway Officials
met with the officials of the bureau of
public roads Of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture, in Washing
ton, to consider standardization of
specifications and tests for road mate
rials. The purpose of this meeting
of representatives from all sections
OF the country was not so much to lay
down rigid rules as to harmonic the
general practice. Standardization TAX
ing into account local conditions Is
being brought about by a series Of
meetings between officials from groups
of states and engineers of the bureau.
The present activity Of highway Off
Gals along this line is most encour-
aging for road building. A few years
ago the general tendency was toward
individuality in each state, without
much opportunity for exchange of
ideas and knowledge. Today the ten
denCy is in the other direction, and
better solution should be reached
when the problems are discussed at
meetings of the best highway engl-
neering talent of the country.

BEST STORAGE OF POTATOES
Only Tubers of High Quality Should
Be Put Into Cellar or Pit
Prevent Freezing.

If best results are expected by stor-
ing potatoes, only potatoes Of good
quality should be stored. Potatoes will
not improve in storage but are more
liable to go down in quality. Many
storage troubles are the result of poor
field conditions. Potatoes should be
left in the field a few hours after dig
ging to permit them to dry. Immature
potatoes will have to be handled and
watched carefully.
Potatoes may be stored in open bins
in q cool cellar or buried in the ground
If stored in a cellar, they should not
be piled more than foot deep. When
stored in layers deeper than this or in
sacks, there Is more danger of loss
from decay.
Potatoes may be buried in the
ground over winter. A shallow hole
about to II inches deep should be
dug and lined with about two inches Of
straw. The potatoes should be placed
in the hole and covered with straw
and four or five inches of soil. Ven
tilation should be provided in the same
manner as for storing other root
crops. AS the weather gets colder,
place another layer of straw on the
mound and add sufficient soil to pre-
vent the tubers from freezing.
