BAKED P Exp?rimenta Looking Commerz The South Carolina experiment sta tion, located at Clemson College, which is under the charge of l'rof. J. S. Newman, has lately issued a bulle tin that ought to interest every farm er in the South. The bulk-tin de scribes a new method of preserving sweet potatoes, which has been tested and proven to be a decided success, and we give herewith the substance of the report: Three years ago the solution of the problem of how to introduce the sweet potato to commerce was undertaken. There were two difficulties to be over come: 1st. To render the potato less per ishable, and 2nd. To reduce its weight and thus render its shipment to distant markets practicable. The question of varieties, fertiliza tion and cultivation has been exhaus tively studied. That large crops can be prod?ced at small cost has been de monstrated. That they furnish cheap and nutri tious food, not only for man, but for all classes of domestic animals is not questioned. As a market crop they have thus far fallen far short of success. Why is this? First, they are too bulky to bear transportation, even to our own large cities. Second, they are too perishable to bear rough handling and exposure to freezing weather. The problem, therefore, which we undertook to solve was to reduce the bulk and weight, by drying off surplus moisture, to sterilize the product as to exempt them from the fungus disease to which the green product is subject, and to accomplish those ends without impairing the edible qualities of the dessicated product. In 1891? the roots were peeled and sliced and dried in a movable evapo rator. This resulted in removing the excess of moisture and consequently reducing the weight to one-fourth that of the green roots, and rendering the product non-perishable, but this was accompanied by a practical destruc tion of the flavor. The surplus mois ture was removed, but the re-absorp tion of the moisture was not satisfac tory, and, hence, when cooked, they did not resemble in consistency nor flavor of the fresh potato. In 1900, Mr. J. Sam Pickett, fore man of the station work, learned that Mrs. E. F. McDowell, of Franklin, N. C, had succeeded in producing a sat isfactory article by boiling the pota toes before evaporating them. Acting upon this suggestion fairly good re sults were obtained, and a merchanta ble article produced by boiling in an open kettle, and using again the fruit evaporator. The work, however, was irregularly done, many of the slices being over-cooked and hard. A sufficient per cent of the output waa properly 3 repared to demonstrate the correctness of the method, and that satisfactory success was attaina ble with a Suitablo outfit skillfully handled. To test the keeping quali ties of this output, a part of the pro duct has remained in ordinary oloth sacks for seventeen months, having passed through two winters and one summer in a perfect state of pr?serva . tion. In the fall of 1901 cxpertM.mts wore made with thirteen different varieties to test their comparative adaption for the purpose. A box of each of these is now included in the Clemson Col lege exhibit at the Charleston exposi tion. , A room was equipped for steam heating in connection with the can nery in the horticultural division of the experiment station, by means of which the work of boiling, peeling and evaporating could be more expe ditiously and economically performed. By rasans of a derrick UHed iu th j cannery, several bushels of greeu po tatoes were lowered in an iron basket into a large boiler in which the water was heated by steam. To secure uni form cooking the roots should be nearly of the same size. Those weighing from one to two pounds re quired one hour for thorough cooking. Six to eight hours were required for evaporating them at a temperature of 150 P. An ordinary laborer peeled and sliced one bushel per hour.

I'nSer this system there can be no loss from rotting during storage. On the contrary the evaporated product is not only not perishable, but contained only 3.42 per cent of moisture, will keep for an indefinite time and bear transportation to any part of the world at any season. To prevent hardening of the product it should be packed in close boxes us oon practicable after removal from the hot room. Soak tbe slices in warm water for an hour and prepare as dressed or can died potatoes. The dessicated pota toes may also be used as are the fresh roots for puddings or custards. In commenting upon the discovery of which the foregoing bulletin treats, the Charleston News and Courier makes the following timely observa tions: The value of tbe process which has been devised by the station may be estimated from this account of it. It insures to the farmer the perfect pres ervation of one of his most prolific and most important general food crops, at the same time fitting it for safe and economical shipment to distant mar kets heretofore closed to it, and effects these ends by a mode of preparation which is so simple and cheap that it can be employed on any farm. When it is noted that in one caBe stated in tho table an acre of land yielded 357 bushels of raw potatoes, which in turn yielded 105 bushels of the dried pro duct, tue possibilities of the process in the way of developing the culture of the vegetable in the South and in troducing it to tho world's commerce and comfort begin to appear in truly vast proportions. And it is to be re membered that 357 bushels of sweet potatoes to the acre is by no means the record crop for this section. Mi J. R. Mattox, of Cinch county, Geor gia, once made 1,445 bushels on one acre in one season, and doubtless .some South Carolina farmer has done even better than that. At any rate, the world would be glad to get our pota toes and pay well for them, if it wer? at onoe made acquainted with their excellent quality, and Prof. Newman und Mr. Pickett, it appears, have found a way to bring them to its at tention in good form and condition. It is a good work that they have done, and it can hardly fail to prove of im mense value to the agricultural inter est of ttiis State aud section. Accompanying the copy of the bul letin sent to the News and Courier was a small pa kage' of the product. On inspection it was noted that the slices are cut across the potato and are about an eighth of an inch thick. In color and texture it is very like dried figs, but much firmer, one of the slices resisting a considerable pull be fore tearing. When cooked for table use according to instructions?as for "candied potatoes"?the resulting dish could bo distinguished from one likewise prepared from fresh roots only by reason of a scaroely percepti ble degree of toughness remaining in the dessicated product. Perhaps a longer preliminary soaking would re move even this slight difference, which was scarcely noticeable at the most. The test was successful in every way, as it proved that the dessioated pro duct retains all the flavor of the fresh roots, and can be used for them at any season of the year with perfeot satis faction to the housekeeper and con sumer. The experiment station has unquestior aoly opened the door to a new industry of enormous proportions and value for the South, and any agri cultural community can employ the opportunity at its own discretion. There can be no question about the demand for the prepared product. It will make a large market for itself at once wherever it becomes known. He was Dead at Throttle. Middleton, N. V., Aug. 6.?The cor oner's inquiry into last Sunday's wreck on the New York, Ontario and Western railroad at Horton's, in which four men were killed, is now in progress before Coroner Johnston From evidence already adduced it is believed that Engineer Ady O'Neal, whose disregard for orders is alleged to have caused the wreck, was dead on his engine when passing the sched uled stopping point. It is believed be received a fatal blow on the head by comiDg in contact with a bridge or other obstruction some time after re ceiving the order, as he did not slow up at either Chiloway or Horton's although Conductor Ducoton tried every means to signal the engineer - mm . ? - ?

Ulen* a Way Out of Prison. Nashville*, Tonn., Aug. 4. ? Armed with dynamite to blow his way out of prison, G us Hyatt, train robber and desperado, led a desperate band of sixteen convicts to liberty from the Tennessee penitentiary to-night. Fif- I teen of the escaping party got entirely clear of the premises and only one, j Edward Carney, a safe blower, sent up from Nashville, paid the penalty of death in the bold undertaking. Joseph Loss and James Work were traced by bloodhounds and captured, but the rest of the prisoners had gotten so far out of bounds that by midnight no trace of them could be had. The prisoners were furnished dyna mite from the outside, which they used in blowing out an opening in the main wing of the prison. Hyatt stood off the iosido guard with a brace of revolvers, which had also been fur nished him from the outside, while the men preceded him, and Carney, the prisoner wh'j vas killed, imme diately preceded tL train robber. The dynamite was laid by Doe, the Manchester train robber, and he made good his escape with the train of pris oners that left by the opening made by the explosive material. Six of the prisoners that got away were Government and the others were State convicts. Men and bloodhounds are in pursuit of them. Train Robberies are too Frequent. Mount Carol, Illinois, August 6.? A daring and successful train robbery occurred at Marcus on the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy railroad, five miles north of Savanna about mid night. The fine vcstibuled passenger train of eleven coaches, conductor Emerson in oharge, was flagged at the little station, aud six masked men boarded the engine. The engineer and fireman obeyed the imperative orders and the robbers at once uncoupled the engine and express car from the train and ran them a quarter of a mile up the traok. They then blew up the express car with dynamite, ran the eng''a north a distance of a mile from Rauover, and the engine becoming dead the robbers abandoned it and escaped. One of the highwaymen was killed, being shot above the eye and also in the leg. He met instant death while in the engine, and his body was dumped to the ground by his companions as they sped away. The express messenger Bye claims to have done tho shooting. The de?d was done quickly, the trainmen and passengers making no defense. Six sacks of money were secured but the amount is not known. The passen gers were not molested.} Ab the country is adapted to suc cessful flight the robbers easily es caped. The work is evidently of ex perts as they went at it coolly and me thodically. Officials of the railway say that only $3,000 in silver t?as secured. .Milesian. Conversation became reminiscent at the lawyers' club the other day, the late Judge Jarnos T. Brady being the subject, says the New York Times. A veteran practitioner who knew him well, said: "Brady's first attempt at practicing law was in very humble quarters, in the rear of a cobbler's shop in Fulton street, near William. One day an Irishman who called and inquired for the cobbler was told by Brady that he was out. Peering about the room of the newly fledged lawyer, scantily furnished with two unpainted chairs and a dcaj table, he inquired: " 'I say, boss, what do you sell here?" " 'Blockheads,' promptly replied Brady. ' " 'Humph!' said the Irishman, 'must be doing a good business, as I sco you have only one left.'

The 22 children are not all infants. Some of them are bright, rosy-cheeked youngsters, already old enough to go to school. Mr. and Mrs. Shandrow have made more than a competence on their 100 acre fruit farm, and it lus been their life-long regret that children have never been born to them. To please his wife Shandrow wrote to the Smith Foundling hospital in Minneapolis asking them to send him several children for a summer's out ing, with the privilege of choosing from them in case he should want to adopt a boy. The Minneapolis institution is a small cue, and the managcujeut. promptly forwarded the visible supply of children over three years of age?no less than 22 boys and girls. Mr. and Mrs. Shandrow are devout Methodists, and an amusing sight was enacted when they discovered that part of the children had never been baptized. The minister was promptly rummonedand eight of the little ones christened at once. They have just decided to adopt all of them, of whom they are excessively fond. Having a Wood Time. Most people are disposed to make the best of poor circumstances, es pecially if they are stout and good natured?the people, not the circum stances. The humor of the situation appealed to the two travelers and they began to laugh. "Say," said one of them, addressing the driver, "my friend here is the ehief of police of one of Alabama's big cities, aud he has come up here to have a good time. He can't do any thing at home, for every one will know it. Now tell us what you do up here to have fun." This question interested the driver very much. He still had some some sporting blood left after thirty years behind the plough. He dropped his reins, turned round to face his passen gers, and kept his back to the mules, which continued to plod their weary way just the same. "Wael, gentlemens," he said, "I'll tell you what I do to have a good time. I just gets on the train and goes ehher to Birmingham or Atlanta and buys me a jug of whifkey. Then I comes back and drinks just'as much as I please, and then I goes out in the woods and hollows just as loud as I can, and I had the best time you ever heard of." Forgot to Explain. A looal. Episcopal congregation takes a great interest in a day nursery for babies that is run as a part of the organized charity of the Church. Mothers going out to work or having other reasons for intrusting ohildren to the care of the nursery for the day receive a numbered brass check, cor responding to a tag hung on each baby. The nursery, located iu a workingfolks ; neighborhood, is very popular with all classes and denominations, the charge being marely nominal. At a recent Wednesday evening service in the ohureh, the pastor told the congrega tion that the day before a strange wo man had left her baby, returned in the afternoon, asked for her child, and was refused beeause she had lost the check. The matron in charge would take no chances, but told the woman to come around later, when, if there were an unclaimed baby remaining, she could have it. The woman called just at closing time, and was told the only baby left was a negro. Here the pastor was interrupted with exclama tions of "Oh!" "What a shame!" ^'Dreadful!" "Poor woman!" etc., from the feminine members of his con gregation. "I forgot to explain," he went on, after a moment, "that the mother, too, was black." Judge Knew Women. "What is your age, madam?" the Judge inquired, and "Whatever you ohoose, sir," was her answer. She was under oath. "You may put down 45 years, thou," said the judge to the olerk. "What is your occupation, madam?" "Sir," said the witness, "you have made a mistake of 10 years in m? a^e." "Putdown 55 years, iLcr?," direct ed the judge. ''Your residence-" "Sir," exclaimed the lady, angrily, ;<my age is 35 ytars, not 551" "Thank you, madam," said the judge blandly. The Deacon's Resolution. "The deacon prayed fer rain ?ix d tyn an' nights on a stretoh, au' when the rain come?" "What then?" "Drowned two of his best cows, an' washed the foundations from under his bouso. An' now hs says that her :ifter he's a good mind to keep quiet, an' jest let Providence run the weather to fuit itself!" Speed of Dogs. Greyhounds are the swiftest dogs known, and scientists say that they are tfie swiftest of all four footed animals. Trained hounds can trav el at the rate of eighteen to twenty three yards a second, which is about the speed attained by a carrier pigeon. These dogs are bred for epced alone. Every other consider ation is lost sight of, and only thu machinery that makes for motion and endurance is cultivated. Foxhounds are also very fast trav elers> going at the rate of nearly eighteen yards a second. M. Duso lier, the noted French scientist, has pointed out in his statistics on the speed of animals that little fox ter riers trotting along with their mas ters who are driving or riding a bi cycle cover mile after mile without a touch of fatigue or distress. Many animals akin to dogs show even greater endurance. A wolf can travel fifty or sixty miles in a night and be ready for a similar journey the following night. "Book" Muslin. A correspondent asks, "Won't you oblige by saying why the word 'book* is applied to muslin?" The idea that book muslin derives its name from the peculiar manner in which it is made up for sale? namely, folded in yards and each' yard doubled in again on itself in such a way that the process of open ing it strongly r?: sembl?s the open ing of a book?is ingenious, but in correct. The word has its origin in Buke, which was erroneously writ ten "Book," the district in India where it was first made. It was not until 1780 that the manufacture of British muslins became a rival to those in India. India muslins are still famous for preserving their whiteness. Wire Used For Pins. Perhaps as striking a figure as can be adduced in relation to wire is its consumption in the pinmaking industry. With but few exceptions, all pins arc made from brass wire, and the daily production of pins in Great Britain iB placed by compe tent authorities at 50,000,000, of which Birmingham supplies about three-fourths. How this stupendous output is consumed affords matter of no small wonderment, and when the proverbial trifling value of each individual pin is further borne in mind the interest in this branch of the wire industry will be stiU fur ther augmented.?Chambers' Jour nal. _ * ?
