THE SECOND OR FALL
CROP OF IRISH POTATOES
"Better Safe Than Sorry"-Do
Not Plant Irish Potatoes
Too Early

Clemson College!FThe early
movement and individual buying Of
Lookout Mountain potatoes, toge-
Their with the many inquiries con-
corning this crop indicate that
there is danger of 200 early plant
ings, especially of the Lookout
Mountain variety, for maximum
yields. Unlike the spring planting
the early bird does not catch the
worm" in case of the second or
fall crop. Therefore, farmers and
gardeners should inform them
selves and not handicap their pro-
duction by planting too early,
warns Geo. P. Hoffman,, Extension
Horticulturist.
The South Carolina Experiment
Station recently conducted a series
of experiments and found that best
results and maximum yields were
obtained by planting between July
10 and August 1, depending upon
the climatic conditions Of the Sec
ton of the state-warmer climates
calling for the later planting.
OF the many varieties suitable
for fall planting the Lookout
Mountain seems to be the o
popular and is usually recommend
ed as being the best, not because OF
the superior eating quality, but be-
cause of it's keeping quality. Sub
stitutes for this variety may be
such spring varieties as Cobbler
and Early Rose, both of which are
good but not so good as the
Lookout Mountain in keeping quail
ty and yield.
The same soil recommendations
applying to the spring crop will ap-
ply equally well to the fall crop.
The Irish potato delights in and
grows to perfection on a rich,
sandy loan soil underlaid by a
clay subsoil retentive of moisture.
But the absence Of such soil
should not be a hindrance in the
growing of Irish potatoes for home
use, as this crop adapts itself to a
great diversity of well drained
soils.

FRENCH BONDS DECLINE
Belgian Securities Suffer In New

New York, July 11.-Selling of

hension that latest developments in
Germany may necessitate complete
revision or modification of today's
bond dealings on the stock ex-
change.
On very persistent liquidation,
French 7 LIS and IS suffered ex-
IRENE r~eversals of 2 IL and 3
points respectively, while Belgian
7 1-2s and IS showed gross declines
of 2 IA to 3 points. In neither in
stance were final prices much above
minimum quotations of the day.
Practically all of the so-called
French municipals and other loans
of that character floated here dur
ing and after the war, showed SINH

overhowed several thousand acres.
It is expected by the Weather Blu

til the last snow melts and then rise
slightly a little later on account Of

DECIDING where TO BUY.

The success of a business depends on Its
ability to analyze the mental operations OF the
public, and to determine how people decide as TO
where they shall buy goods. The merchants who
read the public mind most accurately get the
business.
When one finds that he needs something,
the question comes up where that article should
be bought. From some source back in the mind
the suggestion comes that such and such a place
would be a good store to visit for that purpose.
Whence comes that suggestion?
In the majority of cases, it is created by the
store that has made the most effort to impress Its
reputation on the public mind. People remember
the things they hear about constantly, and they
forget other things that are rarely called to their
attention. The advertised store conforms to the
laws of psychology by constantly calling public
attention to its enterprises, its goods, its methods,
its prices, and the advantages of trading with 1T.
Consequently the inner consciousness, when ask
ed what or where a person should buy, IS apt TO
respond by suggesting certain advertised goods.
It is of course true that while a store by ad-
vertising can always draw in a lot OF new trade,
it can't keep it unless it really does give good val
ues. But advertising helps a store do that, nota-
bly, in these two ways:
Advertising encourages merchants to handle
big lots when such are offered them at low hg-
ures. They know that by appealing to the public
by advertising, they can swing these big lots and
turn them into money in a short time. Thus buy
ing in a large way and taking advantages Of spec
ial opportunities, they are able to offer special
values.
Advertising increases volume of trade, thus
reducing the operating and overhead expense p
article, making it possible to cut prices to the
nrb. The advertised store buys and operates at
low figures, and can thus make low prices.

London, Aug. e-The report of the Allied Committee of Ex- perts to the Indemnity Confer ence, which was to be present ed this afternoon, is expected to oppose the German reprisal program of Premier Poincare of France.
