Three years ago the solution of the problem of how to intro duce the sweet potato to com mierce was undertaken. There were two difissilties to be over come: 1st. To render the potato less perishable, and 2nd. To reduce its weight and thus render its shipment to dis tant markets practicable. The question of varieties, fer tilization and cultivation has been exhaustively studied. That large crops can be produced at small cost has been demonstrated. That they furnish cheap and nutritious food, not only for man, but for all classes of domestic animals is not questioned. As a market crop they have thus 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 perisha ble to bear rough handling and exposure to freezing weather. The problem, therefore, which we undertook to solve was to re duce the bulk and weight, by dry ing off surplus moisture, to ster ilize the product as to exempt them from the fungous disease to which the green product is sub ject, and to accomplish these ends without impairing the edible qualities of the dessicated pro duct. - THE FIRsT EFFBrT A PARTIAL sU and sliced and ii mnovae evaporator. iTiis tilted in e moving the excess 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 destruction of the flavor. The surplus moisture was removed, but the re-absorption of the mois ture was not satisfactory, and, hence, when cooked, they did not resemble in consisteney nor flavor the fresh potato. DIsCOVERY OF A WOMAN. In 1900, Mr. J. Sam Pickett, foreman of the station work, learned that Mrs. E. F. McDowell, of Franklin, N. C., had succeeded in producing a satisfactory article by boiling the potatoes before evaporating them. Acting upon this suggest'on fairly good results 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- out put was properly prepared to demonstrate the correctness of he method, and that satisfactory success was attainable with a suitable outfit skillfully handled. To test. the keeping qualities of this output, a part of the product has remained in ordinary cloth sacks for seventeen months, hav ing passed through two winters and one summer in a perfect state of preservation. A COMPLETE SUCCESS. In the fall of 1901 experiments were made with thirteen different varieties to test their ccmparative adaptation for the purpose. A box of each of these is now in cluded in the ClemsoD college exhibit at the Charleston exposi tion. A room a as equipped for steam heating in connection with the cannery in the horticultural divi sion of the experiment station, by means of which the work of the boiling, peelig and evaporat ing could be more expeditiously andl economically performed. By means of a deriick used in the cannery several bushels of1 ureen potatoes were lowered in an i:n basket into a large boiler in which the water was heated by WHITE S" The Lighi letaining its Gas, when Carbonated, 1 tbove the solid rock ba-e from which ead what some competent authorities FIRST M.

It has done more for me than any water I have ever tried.. For years I have suffered at times with the passage of Uric Acid calculi and have tried a number of celebrated mineral waters, among them Buffalo Lithia Water, Tate, Capon Springs, and Waukesha Bethesda, having spent two mouths each summer for eight suo cessive summers. While I was somewhat benefited, I can safely state that I find no compari son in the action of White Stone Lithia Water, for in it I find that they act powerfully on my kidneys, cl up the urine and in thoroughly w"Y them out, when I arink hite Stone Lithia Water in sufficient quantities. If what I learned from my doctors is true about flooding the kidneys then I eNn see no reason why I should dsufr any more with Uric Acid calcull or the fearful attacks 9f renal colle.
