Sweet Potatoes
And Methods of
Preparing Them

Sweet potatoes have much the same
food as white potatoes, but contain
somewhat larger percentage OF sugar
and have a higher calorie value. They
are also rated higher than white potatoes
as source of Vitamin A.
Sweet potatoes and white potatoes are
not closely related to each other botani-
cally. but are regarded by many house
keepers as being satisfactory substitutes
one for the other in the makeup of
menu. This is particularly the case in
the northern states where the drier, more
starchy varieties of sweet potatoes are
grown. In the South where the sWeeter
and more juicy varieties are used, they
are quite commonly cooked with added
sugar or in combination with other ingre-
dents which enhance the sweet flavor.
The popularity of sweet potatoes as
food and the great variety of ways in
which they be served is indicated by the
large number of recipes for their pre-
paration which come to the United States
| Department of Agriculture from differ
ent sources Here are some of those

A LA MODE.
The great romances of French lit
erature in former days are sealed to
French girl until she dons the
wedding ring.
The only novels she is allowed to
read are those written expressly for
young girls. They deal with the
mildest love making.
Only the title of Madame enables
the French girl to take up the novels
of Victor Hugo, Balzac, George Sand
and others.
Consequently, as one French "old
maid" of so has complained, "minxes

TO CHOOSE PERMANENT CAMP
GROUND

Owing to the fact that campers
have been hard on the trees in the
Station park, and in view of the con-
templated improvements, the Cham
Der of Commerce was requested by
Mr.. Aicher to secure a permanent
camp ground somewhere else. The
matter was discussed from numerous
angles at the luncheon, Tuesday,
which was in charge of the Camp
Ground Committee, Messrs. Winters,
Schlyer and M. A. Basgall. They
were instructed to take immediate
steps to secure a permannt camp
ground and fit it up for this season
as it was thought useless to go on
spending money each year on a tenn
porary affair. City Manager Seng
suggested that the committee consult
with the city commissioners relative
to the five acre tract recently pur-
chased by the city just north of the
power plant. Mr.. Aicher said that
he expected to have the Agricultural
College ship out to Hays their big
tree digging machine which will
move large trees without damaging
them. and since the big trees in the
park had become too thick, we would
move some of them to place in ou1
permanent camp ground and have
shade at once. This seemed to ibe
the most desirable plan and the com
nnittee will work to that end.-March

Candidate for Secretary of State

u. D. McCray, Assistant Secretary
OF State, entertains some old-fasbion-
ed notions. He holds that a state of
heial' whether by appointment or
election, should stay on the lob and
earn the salary the state pays him.
His views are forcibly set out in a
letter the editor of The Free Press
has just received from him. We came
TO Kansas with Mr.. McCray forty-five
years ago, as stated in an editorial
recently published in this paper. We
also published a personal letter from
him in which he praised the great
achievements of the pioneer resi-
dents of Kansas, the states splendid
record in our life time, and of Hays
wonderful growth in its business,
social and educational advantages.
Mr.. McCray is a candidate for
Secretary of State, and quite natur-
ally a number of our citizens re-
quested US to invite him to come out
to Hays and spend week here and
in other western Kansas towns dur
ing the primary campaign. Mr.. Nc
Cray replies that he cannot accept
our invitation, and he gives some
reasons which, it seems to us, will
appeal to every voter. In his letter
he says:
II entertain some old-fashioned
opinions. I would, of course, be glad
to visit you folks as we'll as the peo-
pie of every county in Kansas, where
l have acquaintance and friends
am holding a state Office and / owe
my full time to the state, for the
money it pays me in salary. When I
announced my candidacy for Secre-
tary of State l pledged the people I
would stay on the job as Assistant
Secretary, and that 1 was willing to
trust my candidacy with them. I am
going to fulfill that promise now. and
when 1 become Secretary of State. 1
believe the voters of. Kansas ar look
ing for that kind of officials. In view
of my record in this office and nv
service to the people in not having
been away from my desk as much as
a halliday in working time in more
than three years, save during a ser
lous illness two years ago, 1 am very
willing for the voters to pass upon
my candidacv. If / had decided to
follow the old plan of leaving my
desk and running around over the
state hunting for votes, I would have
resigned the job now hold A state
official has no right to accept a sal
ary when he spends his time away
from his desk gaddipg around cam
paigning for another job"
On that platform D. o. McCray
viii be nominated and elected 'Secre4
tary of State by an Overwhelming
majority. The voters out in the state
will see to that.
