FAMOUS sPUD FOUND
10 nE DISTINCT TYFE

San Luis valley product. All effort
to classify the type Of this national
ly famous potato with another vari-
ETY. has failed. according to q
pamphlet. THE story OF the Brown
Beauty Potato" prepared by w. H..
Olin OF the D. & r. G. W. railroad.
Mr.. Olin says that r. A. Chisholm
Of Del Norte told him that man by
the name OF Barkley. came from
Cape Breton Island. Dominion OF
Canada. in 1885 and brought with
him some potatoes. They became
famous locally around Del Norte.
where Mr.. Barkley settled, because
OF their high yielding power. These
potatoes were called Barkley's Pro-
| life. However. some years ago. q
Mr.. Newton. living near Monte vis-
tn. who also raised the potatoes ex-
claimed one day as he dug eight or
ten spuds. all practically the same
size out OF a hill. These are veri-
table Brown Beauties" The name
stuck to the potatoes.
The famous qualities Of the
Brown Beauty were well advertised
when Mr.. Chisholm used this potato
to plant his measured acre when he
competed for the American Agricul-
turist thousand dollar prize in 1889.
and won II.
Since the Brown Beauty has be-
come one of the standard potatoes.
Mr.. olin sent sample to Prof. Will
liam Stuart, potato specialist for
the U. s. department OF agriculture.
Washington. ID. c. He grew II in
the experimental beds but could not
identify 1t with any other establish
ed type. A sample was then sent TO
Ontario. Canada, agriculture COL
lege with the same result.
AT a meeting of the American and
Canadian specialists In Canada 4
ten pound sample OF the Brown
Beauties was taken aud examined,
but could not be classified. The
sample was sent to England and
grown for observation by the secre.
tary Of the royal horticultural So
ciety. but England found that the
Brown Beauty did not do well there
and was susceptible to blight. THE
English specialist could not identify
II any further than that the valley
spud had the type OF foliage known
In England as the American seed
ling.
Since neither specialists of the
United States. Canada nor England
can identify the famous potato. Mr..
Olin believes that IL should be con-
sidered a San Luis valley product.
and should always be known as the
Brown Beauty potato. There is no,
single type OF potato grown In
Cape Breton in the SOS which Ia
grown there now. which partly ex.
plains the lost Identification OF the
Brown Beauty potato.
This famous spud. which is an
elongated oval type, with shallow

R,1S8SD.A party was being given

merriment of all kinds.
The mistletoe was still hanging over
the door as 1t had hung throughout
the Christmas season, urging shy
youths to snatch kisses from shy but
eager maidens and encouraging those
youths who needed no encouragement.
The music played on, the dancers
never wearied. And then suddenly 1t
stopped All was very still following
trumpet call.
The lights were turned out A door
leading into the big dancing room from
the out-of-dOors was opened
And then could be seen an old. old
man. with long white beard and long
white hair, hobbling along upon a
stick, lantern in his hand.
He threw light as he walked along
and going out OF the opened door
waved an arm as though In farewell
and was just about TO shut the door
when 10 and behold, little lad rushed
in. clad in very few garments, all
young and excited and bounding with
spirits The door closed He was
within The lights were turned on
Dancing began. but only he danced
Around and around In and out OF the
people he danced. while the music
played, faster. faster, faster.
And then he made a low bow and
dashed out Of the dancing room.
There was applause. All the guests
clapped their hands They called for
the little, young dancer.
But as they called, In rushed a
group of small boys. Under their arms
they carried imitation nswspap pers and
as they rushed about they cried.

"He will be with us for twelve

Boston.-"Operating flexibly" is the

In explaining the southern migra-

"The legal working week in the
south averages nearer 60 hours than
the AZ and 54-hour basis in the north
and there is little or no restrictive
legislation against overtime or of a
nature which prevents big textile

LIFE SPAN TO BE LONGER

America is winning the war against
disease, Frederick Almy, former
president of the National Conference
preliminary to the fftieth annual
meeting of the conference here May
16 to 30
Taking the modern crusade against
tuberculosis. Mr.. Almy stated: In
1874. when the Conference of Chari
called, held its original meeting in
New York city, The death rate in
that city from pulmonary tuber-
culosis was 4.3 per thousand. Now
il is IL, or about fourth as
much. The death rate then from
non pulmonary tuberculosis was lis:
now it IS >. or only one-ninth what
1t was fifty years ago. One hundred
anu forty-six persons died of nom
pulmonary tuberculosis in New York

bered 1914. Take typhoid The
typhoid death rate in New York city
is only 1.22 of what it was in 1870,
Only sixty-three persons died of
typhoid in New York city in 1920. but

these sixty-three deaths would have
been 1.4l1. Figures are given for
New York city only because these
are readily available, but the gain
is general.

Work Must BE Public.
We need to visualize disease. If
we could see il marching on us like a
conquering army. with flags flying and
drums beating, ready to take millions
of lives, we would draft all the men
and all the women that were avail

Wholly private. but hereafter the
main attack on disease will be
through public health. for public
health has come Effectively, and has
come to stay. 1t is as important as
public education, for disease is more
contagious more dangerous and more
costly than ignorance
I'VE are also winning our battle
against general ignorance. Nothing
today is so madly utopian as il would
have seemed to King Alfred the
Great one thousand years ago if any
one had had the effrontery to tell him
that the day was actually coming
when practically every man in Eng
land. or rather practically every man
and woman in England, down to the
able to read and write, and even to
vote. In Alfred's time il was not
necessary for gentleman to know
how to write. Fighting was more
important. 1t is doubtful whether
LaunceIot and Galahad could write.
Much Has Been Done.
Free public education came slowly
at Srst in charity schools, then. in
our own day. came free compulsory
education; and. with free compul-
sorry education. illiteracy became
practically extinct among the chill
dren OF the native born. Compulsory
education did not exist even in New

Washington. the National Conference
OF Social Work holds it's fiftieth rally
against the foes OF man. When il
first met in New York city fifty years
ago, as the Conference OF Charities
and Correction. illiteracy was ram
pant.
Much has been accomplished. es-
pecially in the last quarter of a CEN
tury. and especially also in the last
decade. Truancy laws and child labor
laws have done much to help the
schools, but these are not yet uni
versal and there are still too many
