POTATOES FOREMOST AMONG
OUR VEGETABLES IN VALUE

The potato is foremost in value
among our vegetables. 1t is the chief
money crop of large areas, an i'm
portant staple in many others, and
is grown for home supply and local
markets in almost every farming dis
trict. The wise or unwise marketing
of the potato crop may easily mean
a difference of millions of dollars in
the farmers income in a year, ac-
cording to the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. This is partic-
ularly true of the late or main crop
of potatoes, which comprises about
four-fifths of the total production.
Potato crop and market news sup
piled by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture includes crop and
market reports and summaries Of
many kinds published at eight field
stations located in the prominent
shipping sections and at about a
dozen market stations, including the
Washington office. These reports
contain the necessary facts Of pro-
duction, condition, shipment, prices,
demand, and quality. By persistently
using and comparing reports from
day to day and season after season,
they become more and more useful in
showing the potato holder when, how,
and where to sell.
The general condition and course
Of the market is best indicated by
the leading grades of the most i'm
portant commercial varieties in the
largest and most active markets.
Among the regular price develop
ments to be looked for in average
seasons is a comparatively low price

RS on January has often proved an

winter and spring markets.

 T was unable to prepare the state ment I promised you last night but If you will come to my hotel this alt ernoon at six I shall have it ready smiled and with a friendly good ait ernoon, walked away.
 1 was a bit stunned--to think the DLce had remembered me and had taken the trouble to talk to me about 1t, there, in front of all the powers that-be! The amaZement of Barone Russo and Chiavolini made me con fident l had a right to feel stunned. They wore sort of well-l'll- De- darned expression. ef
 Promptly at I was in the waiting room of Mussolinis hotel. l sent Tn my card and Chiavolini himself came out to usher me in to the Duce's sitting room. There was the Duce, seated at a table, a plain white sheet
 Give me a pen,' he asked ab- ruptly.
 Chiavolini handed him his. The Duce began to write, energetically rapidly. in his big illegible charact- CTS. He wrote four or five lines then, with snort, he threw the pen violently away so that it hit the wall Kat the other end of the room.
 "The devil take these internal ma chines," he exclaimed. Dirty your hands and never work. Give me a pen that will write."
 He Writes The Messige.
 With the pen which another secre- tary hesitatingly handed him he con- tinued in bold shop strokes to the end of the sheet, signed his name, lifted the sheet, read it, and handed it to me.
 There" he said. "Tel the Amer ian people we will be grateful Ii they try to understand us, Tell them some of the things you have seen in Italy. Tell them the truth, that IS ali"
 thanked the Dlee and walkec away triumphantly with my docu- ment. l had hoped he would give me signed statement and instead l Was walking away with a whole page manuscript, written by hand, for me, for my American readers, by the Duce himself! Little wonder the secretaries, diplomats, ministers had met on the train crowded about me and congratulated me as l came out with my manuscript message They wondered how l had managec it. They complimented me and they laughed and leased me. Some even hinted that had dewitched the Duce, so marvellous did they consider my achievement l was happy jubilant. But really the whole thing seemed so simple. l had merely used American methods and succeeded common- sense, directness, and per severance; and I had had the luck to be dealing with Benito Mussolini, q man who keeps his word.

 A series of demonstrations, festiv- tiles and a review of the local Easel occupied the morning. I began to wonder how the Duce could find time to keep his promise and give me the message we had spoken about the night before on the train. It was almost 12 o'clock when I asked one of his secretaries to give me a pass so I could get to the prefecture at 9 o'clock.
 No Message Awaits Her.
 willingly" he answered, ''but what for?"
 ITO get my autograph message from the Duce."
 You poor child" the secretary laughed at me. You don't really think you're going to get it?"
 Certainly" I insisted. The Duce promised to give it to me and he cannot break his word"
 Yes he can and does and will" the unsympayhetic secretary continued That is the only way to get rid of some people. Promise to give them something tomorrow and they let you in peace today"
 After such a statement my hopes were low. Stlll, climbed the im- posing circular staircase of the pre- lecture at two that afternoon. In the outer reception room I found Barone Russo He seemed surprised to see me. I told him why I had come
 Impossible. I can assure you the Duce has not had moments time In which to prepare your message" he informed me.
 But he promised and he told me to come here at two" There was both pleading and determination in my voice. I don't know which induced him to hunt for Ohiavolini, Mussolini's personal secretary, and bring him to me.
 Here she is, promptly at 2, and she wants her message" Barone Russo said to Chiavolini as they ap- preached me.
 Sorry, but have not a thing for you," and the personal secretary really seemed sorry. Here comes the DLce now. Luncheon is over and he is due at the stadium at 2:30." He Promises Once More.
 Through the open door I first saw the Duce kiss the hand of his hos tess, madame the prefect's wife, then shake hands with her daughter.

To the Present Generation

'Tis with the south with its suffica

freezatiOn 'Tis with the west with its
irrigation; 'Tis with the east with its
starvation; Yes everywhere you can
hear stagnatiOn.
But as we live in the best state in
all the creation, let us say to our Great
or. we thank you for such a donation,
and keep our administration clear Of
those things that will cause our ruina-
/ tiOn, and stay with old Arkansas for
our salvation.
The best climate i'm all creation,
where a man can support his wife and
their creation without the hazard of
speculation. 'Tis the best state for
plantation where there is hunting and
fishing for recreation.
Some of the old generation ia gone,
some left homes and plenty to care for
their relation, and others left nothing
but their relation TO be scattered to

/ There is many vexations, hut we
should thank our forefathers for their
administration, leaving us good old

left no bonds TO burden the rising gen

Its now time to stop and think, you
who are living i'm the present admin

thank you for what You are doing or
have done when you have given in
your resignation.
1t makes no difference what your Oc-

you are as good as the president of our

corners and honest speculation, but
now is the time to stop and stamp out

Mrs. Julia K. Butler

On Oct. 4th, 1923, as the shades of
night began to gather about us, there
came that great convoy of Angels that
have made so many visits to this earth
and waited the spirit of this good
woman home She was 63 years of
age at her death. she had been mem
ber of the Freewill Baptist church for
about 80 years. During her sickness,
which lasted 30 days, she said at differ
ent times, "all is well with me-" Truly
a good woman has gone from us, she
will be missed in our neighborhood, as
she was ever ready TO help in sickness
or in any other way she could. Aunt
Julia, as she was called, will live long
in the memory Of the people among
whom she lived. Wen not see her
any more here, nor hear her voice any
more. Her guiding counsel will be no
more, but one thing that consoles MS is
we can go to her, and all be reunited
again.
She leaves four daughters, one sis
ter, several grandchildren and a num-
Der of friends and other relatives.
So may we all be prepared to meet
death. for its coming to all of us and
there is only a preparatory place here
and It behooves everyone to he ready,
for after death the judgement, and then
we must give an account of our
stewardship here. May Gods richest
blessings rest upon the bereaved ones.
