Birthday Party.

Felix Miller entertained at a
party in honor of the 10th
anniversary of his birth on
Monday afternoon.
The afternoon was made
pleasant for the small guests
by games and contests led by
the hosts sister, Mrs. Hollis
Batson. A darkened dining room
lighted with many candles and
decorated with potted plants
and flowers lent festive air to
the occasion. A tempting ice
course was served the guests
who numbered twelve.

Monday evening. Rev. Wilson,
the pastor, did the preaching.
18 members were received into
the church by baptism and

graWers use $50 pound sacks.
The barrels cost 55 cents each
and the sacks from 10 cents to
1919 cents, buyers discriminat-
ing against sacked stock. Barrel
es loaded in cars, tiers 3 barrels
wide, 3 tiers high-run 10000
barrels to the car.
Season. Usually opens April
1915, closes about June 1st,
about 10 days or two weeks
early this year.
Marketing Mostly sales to
track buyers, or through merch-
ants and commission men. Sever
al big handlers are growers
themselves. Most potatoes grown
by share croppers or tenants.
Not much organized efforts or
systematic marketing arrange
ment.
Crop and Acreage-Moved
about 300 cars last year, expect
1000 or better this year. Have
about $4,000 acres or an in
crease of about 40 per cent and
better yields than last year.
Quality good.
Labor-Pay from $3.50 to
$1.75 for labor. Hasting labor
is brought in and they are
paid 20 cents per barrel for
digging and picking up. When
picking up behind machine pay
is 10 cents per barrel. About "a
ging by hand. The machine
diggers are equipped with gaso-
line motors to run elevator,
making possible for pair of
mules to pull the machine.
Insect pest and diseases-No
trouble from Colorado potato
beetle. Aphis were pretty bad
this year for the first time. No
method of control used. Mosaic
does not bother but consider
able trouble from blight, not so
bad this year, however. Until
this year Bordeaux (4-4-50)
has been used as a spray. First
spraying when plants are about
6 inches high and then every
week or ten days, depending on
weather conditions. This year
considerable busting was done
with a dry preparation of Bor-
deaux. The machines are very
expensive but quite a number
were sold. On account of the
season not being favorable for
blight a comparison of the dust
and spray results might be err
rOneous.
Succession Cropping When
followed by any crop it is US
ually corn or hay. The corn is
planted at the last working of
the potatoes on the side of the
potato row with a corn planter,
usually about three weeks be-
fore diggins time. In spite of

FRENCH ToNkiN.

When Marshal Joffre arrived in
Hanoi, during his recent trip to
French Tonkin, he found there an old
friend, fellow officer and student of
the Ecole Polytechnique, Father Le-
cornu, pro-vicar Apostolic of Tonkin.
Father Lecornu has just died in Hanoi
following long illness.
He was native of Lisieux, a gradu-
ate of the Ecole Polytechnique and
the School of Application of Fontaine-
bleau. He entered the Engineer
Corps and fought as a captain in the
Tonkin campaign with another Poly
technician who was to be the future
Marshal Joffre.
1t was during his campaign in Ton
kin that Captain Lecornu learned to
know the missionaries, and he became
greatly interested in the Annamites,
whose language he learned. After his
return to France and the death of his
parents, he resigned from the army
and entered the Seminary of Foreign
Missions. After his ordination he was
sent back to Tonkin and became pas
tor of Hanoi, later being appointed
Pro-vicar Apostolic.

GO JURisT DEMoLIsHEs FALSE
THEORIES sREGARDlNe cRlMl-
NAL TENDENCIES.

A lack of religion, not lack of rea-
son, is responsible for crime. Warped
morality, not warped mentality, makes
the criminal in the greater numbers.
Wrong intent, not wrong intellect,
brings about the violation of our laws.
and results in offenses against public
morality. These are the conclusions
OF Superior Judge Marcus kavanagh,
Catholic jurist, and they are based on
his experience of more than quarter
of a century in the courts of Chicago.
The Catholic iurist takes issue with
the criminologists Ferri, Ellis, Caro-
fola and other lesser lights who would
take from the criminal moral respon-
sibility for his sins, by attributing his
offenses to defective intellect Judge
Kavanagh's views created sensation
among local jurists, most of whom had
been led to adopt the theory of moral
responsibility as defense for crime.
The judge made his declaration be
fore the German club, and his words
carried weight because of his known
judgment and experience, and the
proof he offered.
ut is the disposition rather than the
intellect, the heart rather than the
mind, that makes the criminal" he
said. "No man in this country ques-
tions the intelligence of the American
soldier. Yet DR.. Herman Adler, state
criminologist, has found that the in
telligence of the average criminal is
equal to that of the white American
soldier
Negro criminals rank higher in in
telligence thanS did the negro soldiers.
This proves that a criminal is a Grim
irlal because he chooses to be, rather
than because of any mental twist
THAT religious persons run less to
crime than the non-church going. is
proved by the fact that the province of
Quebec (Catholic), with a population
equal to that of Chicago, has had but
one serious crime against a woman in
sixty years, while Chicago averages
one year."
