POTATOES IN HANDS
OF GROWERS LARGE
The fourth annual inquiry made by
the bureau of statistics of stocks of
marketable potatoes in the hands of
growers and dealers on January 1 in
the principal potato growing sections
of the United States resulted in the
following estimates:
The quantity remaining in the hands
of growers on January 1 was about
39.8 per cent of the total quantity
raised for market in 1912, which com
pares with 33.1 per cent of the 1911
crop similarly held onManuary 1, 1912,
40.2 per cent of the 1910 crop on Jan
uary 1, 1911, and 41.2 per cent of the
1909 crop held on January 1, 1910.
The quantity remaining in the hands
of dealers on January 4, 1913, . was
about 9.8 per cent of the total raised
for market in 1912, which compares
with 8.0 per cent of the 1911 crop
similarly held on January 1, 1912, 10.9
per cent of the 1910 crop held January
1, 1911, and 9.9 per cent of the 1909
crop held January 1, 1910.
The quantity remaining in the
hands of both growers and dealers
on January 1, 1913, was 49.6 per cent
of the total crop, which compares with
41.7 per cent of a year ago, 51.1 per
cent of two years ago, and a similar
amount three years ago.

KEEPING SH;iE!DD FCDCE:
W. W. Greiner, Orange, Virginia,
writes as follows: "I am using ,a
McCormick husker and shredder this
fall, but have no storage rooms for
stover. My plan is to stack It out
side, but have been advised that there
is great danger of losing it if stacked
outside, and I cannot afford to lose it.
Can you advise me how to stack it so
it will keep? I can neither bale it nor
build storage rooms this fall."
Shredded fodder may te kept either
outdoors or inside, depending on local
conditions. If you have a great deal
of wet weather during the fall and
winter, much of the shredded fodder
will spoil, as is the case with any
rough feed stacked outdoors. There
will be more waste to the shredded
fodder than with the hay because of
the fact that it is finer and not
as easily handled as hay. , In nr
sections of the corn belt the shredded
fodder is stacked outdoors, hut very
seldom is this done excepting where
it is impossible to put it under cover.
We would suggest that you use some
coarse hay to top the stack, and thus
prevrrt some of the loss due to wet
"feather.
The only danger of rtacking shred
ded foi'dcr or putting in the tarn re
ti'ltn f,-cm lbs fact that it Is shredded
hen very f.xTap or wet In no case
stand too long, the leaves will break
off when curing, also the stems will
become more fibrous and coarse, thus
decreasing the qual.ty of the hay.
If any machine gave trouble, or is
not up to date, you can hardly afford
o store it and try to "get along" with
It another year. Investigate the new
machines advertised, and you will be
surprised at the improvements.
See that sheds are in good shape
to protect the stock that are in the
pasture. The first storms do stock
more damage than later ones because
they are not accustomed to them.
Havana's Bell Tower.
One of the characteristic landmarks
of Havana is' a bell tower built into
one of the old walls. It Is among the
most ancient of. the existing remains
of Spanish builders, and - towering
above the bouses near is a picturesque
reminder of olden times, in a city that
Is rapidly taking on the air of modern
civilization.
At the Portland Theaters
Last Car Leaves For Oregon' City at Midnight
'
The applause which followed Ben
Hur's hard-earned victory in the three
entry chariot race in the fifth act of
"Ben Hur" . at the Heilig Theatre
Tuesday nighty was more noisy and
tumultuous than the clattering of the
horses and the chariots and the snap
ping of whips and cheering, as the
12 steeds raced to "win", for "place"
and to "show."
Chariot racing has long been asso
ciated with "Ben Hur," in the minds
of readers and playgoers, and though
the clever mechanically arranged race
in the Klaw & Erlanger production
of the dramatization of General Wal
lace's story, is not the "whole show,"
it is still a big feature of it. The
race in the rejuvenated production of
"Ben Hur" is better and more thrill
ing than ever.
There is no longer room for doubt
as to whether or not the big attrac
tion can be staged at the new Heilig.
"Ben Hur" was produced there with
splendid effect, and to a capacity au
dience. As big a feature as it is the char
iot race is not all there is to "Ben
Hur." The story itself is one of dra
matic interest in its development of
the passions of love, hate, and war
intrigue, the whole permeated with
the " indefinable air and influence of
the early Christian spirit. "The Star
of Bethlehem,-' the prelude, is an at
tractive stage picture, and no less is
the lake scene, and the final ensem
ble on Mount Olivet.
The new Klaw & Erlanger produc
tion of "Ben Hur" is big in every
particular, and in the casting of parts
special attention has been paid to
fitting them- to players both dramat
ically and physically qualified to
carry them there.
"Ben Hur" will be at the Heilig
through Saturday night, with a spec
ial price matinee this afternoon at
2 o'clock, and the regular matinee
Saturday afternoon.
Evening performances begin prompt
ly at 8 o'clock, and no one is seated
during the prelude, which offers one
of the most beautiful effects of the
Play.
BOXING IS WORLDWIDE.
Ring Game Is Being Taken Up In Ail
Countries.
"Boxing is gaining friends the world
over." said Charles Harvey, secretary
of the New York state athletic commis
sion. "It was less than ten years ago
that the sport was practically confined
to America. England and Australia.
France then took it up. Now It is mak
ing such rapid strides in Denmark and
Switzerland that those countries,
through promoters of the game, are
making requests for copies of our rules.
They want them to submit to the com
mittee that will decide on the inter
national rules and weights." j
That Denmark and Switzerland have
boxers of note is made evident In the i
letter which Paul Rosseau. president I
of the Federation of French Boxing
Clubs, has sent to Harvey. The letter
touches on the establishment of inter
national boxing rules and weights,
which it is proposed shall govern all
bouta In every country.
From the contents of the letter it will
be seen that France, Germany, Den
mark and Switzerland are more likely
to co-operate witii America than Is
England. The Danes and Swiss want
uniform rules. The weights that rule
in this country may be accepted by
France, and the other members of the
federation, but Englishmen already
have begun to protest, through the
sporting papers, against any change.

How To Cook
A Husband
A recipe for cooking husband "ten
der and good."- A good many hus
bands are utterly spoiled by misman
agement. Some women go about it as
if their husbands were bladders and
blow them up. Others keep them con
stantly in hot water. Others let
them freeze by their carelessness
and indifference. Others roast them
Some keep them in pickle all their
lives. It cannot . be supposed that
any good husbanji will be tender or
good managed in this way, but they
are really delicious when treated
properly. In selecting your husband
you should not be guided by the sil
very appearance, as in mackerel, nor
by the golden tint, as if you wanted
salmon. Be sure and select him
yourself, as tastes differ. Do not go
to market for him, as the best are al
ways brought to your door. It is
far better to have none unless you will
patiently learn how to cook him. A
preserving kettle of the finest por
celain is best, but if you have nothing
but an earthenware pipkin it will do
with care. See that the linen in
which you wrap him is nicely wash
ed and mended with the required
number of buttons and strings sewed
'on. Tie him in the kettle with a
strong silk cord called comforts as
the one called duty is apt to be weak.
They are apt to fly out of the kettle
and be burned and crusty on the
edges, since, like crabs and lobsters,
you have to cook them alive. Make
a clear, steady fire, out of love, neat
ness and cheerfulness. Set him as
near this as seems to agree with him.
If he sputters and fizzes, do not be"
anxious. (Some husbands do this
unitl quite done.) Add a little sugar
in the form of what the confectioners
call kisses; but no vinegar or pepper
on any account. A little spice im
proves them, but it must be used with
judgment Do not stick any sharp in
struments into him to see if he is
becoming tender. Stir him gently,
watch the while lest he lie too flat and
I - , - - ii i I
close to the kettle and so become
useless. You cannot fail to know
when he is done. If thus treated
you will find he is done digestible,
agreeing nicely with you and the
children, and he will keep as long
as you want, unless you become care
less and set him in too cold a place.

League Cook Book.
