An economical method of planting potatoes by cutting out the eyes for reproduction purposes, and the use of the remainder of the tuber for the table is described in the weekly news letter of the department of agricnltnrp Thp nrasDective Dotato raiser is advised to cut out of the potato cone-seaped bits, each containing an eye. It is estimated that in this *ay from three-fourths to four-fourths of the potato can be saved for food .without detriment to the seed supply. It is also pointed out that the seed cones can be cut out from day to day and preserved for planting time, thus avoiding a surfeit of potatoes for any one day or week. In the days when potatoes were so cheap that they were looked on as a poor man's friend, the idea of economizing in the cutting of the slices FROM THE SHORES OF LUKE MICHIGAN TO BIRMINGHAM Message From Hammond.

"Our factories here are pushed with orders until they are all but frantic and now with a fresh wave j of prosperity headed our way, it looks as though we would be fairly submerged with work. There are no men here begging for a day's work, but there are countless numbers praying for a day off. Everyone is overworked trying to keep up. "I was myself so overworked and run down that I thought for a time I was going to collapse. My nervous system was so impaired that my work became absolutely repulsive to me and I simply had to drive myself almost under lash to accomplish anything. "A friend from Birmingham said to me one day: 'Why, Milliken, I know just the very thing for you. It's not made by anyone ?it's simply a natural remedy product, but it is distributed from my own town, and it is almost unbelievable what it will do in building up the nervous system' "He told me it was called Sulferro-Sol and I sent for a bottle. I have never taken a tonic or heard of one that produced such astonishing results in so short a time. It put me right on my feet, and actually gave me new life. To those who are in need of an energizing tonic,SulferroSol is the one greatest remedy in this country." Sulferro-Sol is sold and recommended by all druggists at Kingstree, S C, and vicinity.

This spring the ; number of gardens will undoubtedly be vastly increased and nearly every householder is counting on getting i ahead of the potato seller this sum-: mer.

Xashville Banner. Not Onr Problem. Certain cities of the North are becoming greatly exercised over the influx of negro population from the South. The Philadelphia North American said in a recent issue that "migration of more than 300,000 negioes from the South to Philadelphia and other Northern cities has brought about the most acute situation with which housing experts, social workers and public health officials have never had to contend." A meeting was held in that city,attended by representatives of the city government, Associated Charities, Travelers' Aid society,real estate rental men, preachereand doctors and others; but whenitadjourned the solution of the problem seemed as far in the hazy distance as when the chairman first rapped for order. There was a lot of talking, and theorizing and speculating,but no action, because no one seemed to know what ought to be done. "The inilux of colored people, ' says Zed H Copp, general secretary of the Associated Charities of Camden, N J,in a letter to The Constitution, "is startling,and disturbing social conditions in our cities. ... It seems to me there should be some way of controlling an exodus that doubtless involves loss to the South and furnishes purplexities to the North." "I am writing to ask you to ascertain what is inducing this immigration," Mr Copp continues, and he asks The Constitution to"please have it carefully investigated, so that the itAlnma moo Ko roH iir>pri tn incluHp only those negroes who are financially able to take care. of themselves when they reach here,until they find employment, or to such who leave to take definite places of remunera- j tive employment." The cause is not Southern, but purely of Northern, origin, and is very simple of explanation. For many months experienced and trained labor agents of the industrial enterprises and the great railroad Bystems of the North have been all over the South engaged in the effort to take the negroes North. They offer all kinds of alluring inducements, and have engaged hundreds of local | agents to continue their work of con-1 vincing the negroes that it is to their interest to go. Free railroad transportation was offered the negroe9, and pictures of golden hue were dangled before the susceptible eyes of the colored folk? No Need To Rub!
