L
Cork.-With the low prices now
ruling for potatoes and the
~ difficulty Of disposing of them
even at low figures, many grow
erS wonder what to do with their crops
AS there is very little prospect of the
market becoming more lively, and as 81
to 35 shillings per ton Is totally unre.
munerative to the farmers, the only al.
tentative is to utilize at least portions Of
the crop to make good the shortage OF
foodstuffs in other directions.
1t is unfortunate that very few re-
liable experiments have been carried
out in the feeding of raw potatoes to
pigs, but it is the general opinion of
practical feeders that 4 pounds OF
raw potatoes fed to pigs in suitable
rationS are equivalent to about ]
pound Of barley meal. It has been
proved by experiment in feeding pota-
toes to dairy and fattening cattle that
pounds of potatoes are equal to
about 10 pounds of roots. Clean raw
potatoes are eaten readily, by cows, but
cannot be fed in excess without injury
Not more than Is pounds should be fed
daily to dairy cattle and not more than
20 pounds to fattening cattle.
When cattle or pigs are fed potatoes
in the portions cited, supplementary
feelings Of barley meal, crushed oats
nut cake, pollard and SKINNED milk
must accompany the potatoes. Also as
much hay as they will eat for the cattle.
In every case the potatoes must be
sound and clean, and steamed or boiled
are better.

Diamond Cutter
Employers Set Working Day.
LIE Soir, BrusseIs.-rhe EMPLOYERS,
syndicate of diamond cutters met at
Antwerp to inaugurate a 12-day CLOSING
OF the cutting establishments. M
LlpSchutz asserted that the action is
taken by agreement of the prpprietors
OF the shops and the workers. OF 10000
diamond cutters in the organization's
employ not more than one-half of /
per cent objected to these drastic meas
ures, as they know the condition of the
diamond market demands radical ac-
ton. One employer only was fined for
an lnfraction of the rules of the syndi-
cate, He was penalized 5000 francs.
Another member of the syndicate, who
was employing men at the rate of 3OO
francs per week, was expelled.
AT Amsterdam the cutters have been
working but 8 days out of u. In
France, particularly In the Department
OF Jura, they do not work more than "a
hours in the same period.
In Germany the shutdown is COM
plete. The agreement between the i'm
porters of the rough diamond and the
diamond cutters is that they are not to
work any more than enough to supply
demand. The demand is strictly neg
ligible.
However, the American market seems
to be waking up. Several large orders
have been placed with Amsterdam and
Antwerp concerns by American and
Italian dealers.

Not as spectacular as Henry Ford, yet
as important figure in American bust
ness and invention, George Eastman
has led life of practical romance. His
biography, George Eastman" by Carl
w. Alderman, tells of what heredity
probably did for him. His father
descendant of English colonial ances-
tors, founded EaStmans Commercial
College in Rochester, N. Y, but died
shortly after, before he had been able
to make the family fortunes secure. A.
long struggle followed for Mrs. Eastman
and her children. George began work.
ing before he was IA, with an insurance
agent, at So a week. AS soon as he
earned, he saved and as soon as he
saved, he bought photographs. In 1877
he took some lessons in the photo
graphic art, then in its crude early
stage. In 1879 he received his first
English patent for improved photo
graphic plates and in 1880 his first
American patent. Many other inven-
lions followed and in 1896 Eastman
marketed his 100,000th kodak. Inven-
tive genius and wealth are not the only
things which the name of George East
man suggests. Philanthropy education,
the arts, civic community activity, and
exploration are all associated with his
name.

partment Of Justice, in testifying be,
fore the committee demonstrated
the direct control by the Third In
ternationale, with headquarters at
Moscow, of the Communist party OF

secured some prospects, but these

some results soon.
We had fine prospect from Hall

for man living here. If this party
will consider moving to Richmond ne

seems to be that fellows who are SIN

friends not to leave them and the
married girls are begging for a
chance to give their men away. So
there we are.

Vast Democratic Primary Decision Affirmed By
The United States Circuit Court Of Appeals
APPELLATE COURT SAYS
NEGROES CANNOT BE
BARRED FROM DEMOCRA-
TIC PRIMARY

Asheville, N. C.-(CNS)- The
United States Circuit Court of APP
peals rules that the Democratic party
of Virginia had no right to bar "Neg-
roes and other races" from its pri-
mary.
The ruling confirms the decision OF
the District Court at Richmond, Va,
in the case of James o. West. VS.. A.
C. Bliley, William Boltz and William
Richer. The three defendants were
Democratic judges in the precinct in
which West lived in Richmond.
West was refused the right to par
ticipate in he Democratic primary for
selection of nominees as city officials
of Richmond on April 8, 1928, on the
grounds that the plan Of the Demo-
cratic party, adopted June II, 1924,
limited the right to participate in its
primaries to white persons.
The opinion was written by Judge
Elliott Northcutt, Of Huntington, W..
Va.
of all the political parties in the
State of Virginia Incorporated the
same qualifications in their rules and
regulations as did the Democratic
party" he wrote, nobody could par
ticipate in the primary except white
persons and other persons would be
deprived of material right guaran-
teed to them under the Constitution
as amended; that is, the right to par
ticipate in the selection of candidates
to be voted for in the election"
The opinion was concurred in by
District Judges W. E. Baker, of Elk
ms, w. Va, and William c. Coleman
of Baltimore.
