Premier Kerensky was reported ?last night at Luga, 85 miles south west of Petrograd. Late yesterday evening, after the government Torces had been driven into the winter palace, the palace was besieged and a lively fire of machine guns and rifles bogan. The cruiser Aurora, which was moored at Nicolai Bridge, moved up within range, firing shrapnel. Meanwhile the guns ol' the St. Peter and St. Paul fortresses opened fire. The palace stood out under the glare'of the searchlights of the crui ser and offered a good target for the guns. The dofenders held but for four hours, replying as best thoy could with machine guns and rifles. There was spasmodic firing in other parts of the city, but the workmen's and soldiers' troops took every means to protect citizens, who were ordered to their quarters. Tho bridges and the Nevsky Prospect, which early In the afternoon were In the hands of the government forces, were captured and held during the night by the workmen's and soldiers' troops. The battle at the palace, which be gan shortly after, 6 o'clock, was a spectacular one, armed cars of the revolutionists swinging into action in Iront of the palace gates, while flashes from the Nev-a were followed by tho explosion of shells from the guns of the Aurora.

Boyd, superintendent of the county home of York county, is a farmer of no mean ability, and he ls doing his bit to win the war for America. Besides being one of the most successful truck farmers in York county, Mr. Boyd has made a discovery in the way of- saving sweet potatoes through tho winter which is as effective as it is simple, and which requires no expensive special build ings or a special cellar to save the tubers, which heretofore have caused lots of worry to farmers who would keep the sweet potato for consump tion through tho winter months. Mr. Uoyd when in town showed a sample of sweet potatoes that were dug a year ago^lfnd that had been saved in perfect condition by his method that ls in uso at the county home. Instead of putting the potar toes away in "hacks" or pits, or in dry cellars, as do many potato grow ers, Mr. Boyd when ho digs his crop simply has his children and other help to wrap each Individual tuber in a pieco of newspaper, torn to conven ient size, and then packs the potatoes away in barrels or boxes, or piles them on floors wherever lt may bo convenient to do so. The potatoes so packed, away keep In perfect condi tion for months, and' the specimen he was Bhowing to-day was still in good condltlryi and flt for rood. At first thought this method might seem to be a rather tedious one, but it ls hardly any moro trouble than ls the process of putting the potatoes in "hacks" and running'tho risk of losing the whole crop. Mr. Boyd's method has been tried hy him thor oughly and it works to perfection. Another wrinkle In regard to sweet potatoos that Mr. Boyd-*vorks In get ting sweet potatoes for next year's crop is this: Along in the middle of the summer he clips cuttings from his vines and sticks these in the ground, and these clippings will nt once start growing, and will produce tubers of sufficient size to use for bedding to furnish "slips" for next year's potato crop. A Long Staple (Jetton (Trop. Bamcsvllle, Ga., Nov. 8.-lilley Summery, a prominent young man of this clt>, who began farming last year, h<is made a record in cotton growing fdr this year which will doubtless have J.he effect of revolu tionizing tho growing of cotton throughout Middle Georgia. ?Ie to day sold to the W. T. Summers'ware house 12 bales of the Webber hong Htaple cotton, which he grew on 12 acres, for 40 cents a pound, receiv ing therefor a check for $2,'100. This, of course, does not include tho seed. Tho success which Mr. Summers has had with this variety of long stapio cotton shows how well lt grows and produces in this section, mid the in creased price it brings en tho market will evidently bo an inducement for farmers generally to substitute it for the ordinary short staple.
