THE POTATO INDUSTRY
Take it year iu and year out the
raising of potatoes is just about as
profitable as any of the varied in
dustries of agriculture. There are
some years when the crop is exceed
ingly large all over the country
and this has a lowering effect on
the price, but as a general thing
the market tor potatoes of the right
sort is always brisk and the farmer
that will grow them in plentiful
number generally reaps a good
thing in a financial way.
An instance is noted in this
respect wherin a farmer in the
country near Eugene. Oregon,
harvested more than 6000 bushels
last year and just recently disposed
of the last of that crop, they going
at a satisfactory price.
At the
time that he sold the last of his old
potatoes his farm began yielding
large quantities of the new crop,
for which he is receiving 5 cents
per pound, and he is also putting
in a large amount of late potatoes.
Here is a case of one farmer selling
hiB old potatoes, digging and sell
ing his new ones, and planting
more potatoes, all at the same time.
Such a farmer as that will never
talk about the possibility of hard
times and generally stands ready to
take an active part in the advance
ment of the country of which he is
an important factor in its upbuild
ing.— The Pacific Homestead.

asset in home-building ami honn-
making.
The hired help problem has been
a great menace to the forwaad
march of the dairy cow.
The
best practical solution *eemi to be
to build a small house or two on
the place and hire married mer.
The writer is acquainted with a
number of large dairymen who have
followed this course very satisfact
orily after having run for several
years getting men hit and miss,
part of the t:me being short on help
or else having very poor help.
Married men seem to be much more
steady and less transient.
The dairy cow is in no small
degree a home builder in that she
increases the fertility of the soil
and does her part in the making of
permanent agriculture. When she
removes a pound of fertility from
the farm through her milk, her
brother the steer carries with him
to market more than ten pounds of
fertility. We have only to look at
the abandoned farms ot the East
and South to see what dair.'ing is
doing to reclaim those sections. In
fact, the old adage, ‘What is home
without a mother?” has been
changed in many places to ‘‘ what
is home without a mother and a
dairy cow?’’ And wheuever one
finds this combination be will find
a place where happiness and con
tentment reign supreme.
