STOPS PURCHASE OF SILVER

Washington, June 14.-Direc.
tor Scobey,of the mint, will close
the treasury books at 4:30 p. m.
tomorrow to all offers of silver
of purchase by the government
and, it was officially stated to.
night, no further tenders are
likely to be accepted for two or
three years.
Actual treasury purchase OF
silver ended June / when Off
GERS estimated that 100000, 900
ounces had been received under
the Pittman act. Since the Of.
fers all were on the basis of es.
Inmates. Mr.. Scobey had no way
of ascertaining definitely whe.
ther the amount required by the
law had been entirely filled.
Consequently he has continued
to receive and file offers.
The 2OO,OO0,OOO ounces was
purchased to replace that loaned
by the treasury to Great Britain
for use in India during the war.
When that bullion is again in it's
vaults, the government will be
out of the silver market. Off
Gals believe the treasury will
have no further need for addi
tional stocks for several years.

Potato Diseases
Depicted on Screen
Farm Bureau Plan

A stereopticon machine has been
obtained by the Kennebec Farm Bu-
reau and will be used extensively in
connection with the % community
planning meetings which will be held
in the county during December and
January. The lantern slides shown
at each of the meetings will be a big
aid in the project planning. The
Farm Bureau is fortunate in OBJ

showing potato diseases. that has
ever been prepared in this country.
DIR. Folsom is an authority on potato
diseases and during the past four or
five years has spent almost his en-
til } time in study of the degenerative
diseases which cause potatoes to run
out and which greatly reduce yields
and are largely responsible for the
present serious condition in the
southern seed trade.
These slides show very clearly the
action of such diseases as black leg.
net necrosis, rhizoctonia, curly drawf,
leaf II and the various types of
mosaic Probably every farmer in
kennebec county will be able to find
one or more of these diseases in his
own seed. For that reason this series
of slides is a valuable education in
itself, since it shows, not only what
the diseases are and how to recOg-
nize them, but also to prevent them.
At the % community planning
meetings to be held this month and
next, an all-day meeting will be held
in each Farm Bureau community OF
the county. At these meetings the
people of the community plan for ex-
tension work in their communities
for the coming year, choose officers
and project leaders who will be re-
sponsible in carrying out the plans
made. 1t is expected that the Ian
tern slide show will make the meet
-ings more interesting.

bres que, sin tener una inteligencfa
que salga de 10 comnn, tienen Ell ta-
lento para lograr exito. Cree que aun-
que estos hombres merecen una recon-
pensa, no merecen la fortuna que adj
quieren. Estan pagados en- exceso. La
principal caracteristica de estos hom-
bres, dice Arnold Bennett, es su con-
tinua, insaciable deseos de lograr ext
to. Est&n solo .preocupados con la idea
del exito.
Esta segunda caracterfstica de los
hombres que triunfan Sc desprende de
la primera, dice Bennett. Estan STEM

tunidad. Esto no quiere decir, agrega,

diccion, que sean trabajadores. Un hom

dia una empresa que debiera fracasar

gran parte en- estas carreras.
La tercera clase de hombres que tie
nen 6xito, segtln Arnold Bennett, es
la de los que 10 obtienen por su propio
merito. Esto de que haya personas que
tengan exito por su propio merito va
es una contradiction con su asevera-
ci6n anterior de que "el exito en- gran
( de escala no depende jamas de la prac-
tica de las virtudes 11umildes.''
Sin embargo, Bennett. admite que
un diez por ciento de los hombres que
