GETTING ALONG WITH THE COMMON COUNCIL

1 The question is now being asked,
 how will Mayor Paonessa, when the
 mayor -elect takes the "reins of of i fice,' get along with his Common Council, which consists of 20 Re-
 rublicans and 10 Democrats.
 If. because the mayor happens to be a Democrat, the majority party must play politics, the result will not
 be to the advantage of the city. The way to avoid such difficulties is not to play politics unnecessarily. If at all. The good of the City demands more than political string pulling be- tween elections, If the Common Council will bear this in mind which also holds good Of the mayor the outlook will be bright instead of dark
 A Common Council that takes q delight in tying the hands of the mayor would prove an incubus rath- CT than source of strength. Public opinion is opposed to such a con- ceptlon of public duty, and in the long run it would be playing very poor politics.
 1 The mayor, facing two-thirds more Republicans than Democrats in the i pews before him. ought to be less inclined to indulge in politics than l the majority. for it is the latter which usually feels itself in the , strategic position to indulge in ways that are devious, ethically illogical , and in practice inefficient.
 The supposition, widely prevalent, that such constituted Common i Council can with impunity override the veto Of the mayor through oper- ation of the two-thirds vote rule. does not hold water. In the first place, there rarely is q full attend ance of the Common Council pres "nt at meeting, and it is easier to obtain the attendance of only ten Democrats than % Republicans. The mayor in reality has two votes one as a member Of the Council and one as mayor, so that the Republicans, to override a veto really require 21 votes. whereas they are one short of. that total even if all were pres cnt. Then there is the extreme like lihood that the Republican ranks would scarcely ever be solidly lined up on any proposition, there being several Republicans in the Council who show d consistent tendency to do their own thinking and do not lnnp at the crack Of the party whip. Taking all these things into consider ation, it is quite unlikely that the Common Council will be able 10 pass an ordinance over the mayors veto; it would need the assistance of Democrats for the purpose, and as conditions are today the minority is much more likely to hang together on an important public or party question than the Republicans, Of which 'herc are more varieties than the Democrats.
 But as stated at the beglunin. o. f1ls friendly discourse, party con- alterations should not dominate the deliberations of the Common Coun- cil. What the public is most inter cSted in is effective efficient and honest city government; and strict lE party government in essence Is opposed 10 these principles. Dishon- est party advantage is proverbial; in efficiency is a by-word: effectiveness from the standpoint of the public Wcllb"ing is hard to attain if party considerations dominate thought and action.

ADVANTAGES OF MATRIMONY
 According to Thomas Sims
For Men

1 When you are invited out to play ! bridge your wife is liable to get sick so you don't have to go. l When you are too broke to buy a can Of tobacco you can tear up some of your wife's cigarettes and put them in your pipe. You learn to think quickly and convince yourself you were not where you were and didn't do what you did. You can ask the judge to please have pity on your family. If the boss says you are foolish you know you are because your wife said so, so you don't talk back and get fired.
 People won't think you are not making a lot of money just because you wear old clothes and are in debt.
 For Women
 When you are invited out to play bridge your husband is liable to get sick so you don't have to SO.
 Every time your husband does anything wrong you have the fun of hopping up and saying. T told you so."
 You can always be proud of your husband because you know he used better judgment in marrying than you did.
 You never get off from work 50 you never will have to hurry to keep from working overtime.
 You can ask the judge 10 please have pity on your family.
 Never have 10 be sorry you didn't marry when you had the chance.

will increase the yield and greatly
reduce the per bushel cost.
Mr.. Rose said that many farm
ers used the poorest potatoes they
had for seeding purposes. He con-
tended that the best potatoes on
the farm should be retained for
seed.
The proper storing of potatoes
is very important. Potatoes for
the table should be kept at about
40 degrees; potatoes for seed
should be kept at about 35 degrees
to keep them from sprouting. Po-
tatoes kept at a temperature high
er than 40 degrees will rot more
quickly. : 4
Much of the value of the pota-
to crop is jeopardized by improper
handling immediately after digging
Potatoes, according to Mr.. Rose,
go through a sweating process for
six weeks after; they are dug, and
have the tendency to heat.
The last few weeks before the
potato natures are the most i'm
portant for quality and yield. He
recited experiments at the Univer-
sity farm covering a Today per-
iod before the final potatoes were
dug. A certain portion of the
patch was dug each day for seven
days. They were carefully meas
ured and the results showed that
the yield increased seven bushels
per acre for the seven days, a total
increase between the first and last
day Of 40 bushels per acre.
He advised the use of high
pressure sprayers, and to use the
Bordeaux mixture for disease and
bugs. The potato should be
sprayed from the under side of
the leaf. He said there was a
commercial bordeaux mixture but
that the farmer could prepare his
own at very low cost. The mix
ture is composed of four pounds
of copper sulphate (cost 32c) ;
four pounds of ordinary lime
(cost six cents) to so gallons of
water. This mixture properly used
always gives satisfaction.
Mr.. Rose said many farmers
cultivated their potatoes entirely
too long. Cultivation should stop
just as soon as the blossoms COM
mence to appear.
Seed potatoes should be treated
at least three weeks before they
are to be planted. Skin diseases
can he eradicated, but disease from
