Sweet Potatoes
Need Treatment,
County Agent Says
(R. W. Shoffncr, County Farm
Agent.)
Every bushel of sweet potato*)
that is bedded should be treated.
The potatoes may be clean, but .the
soil might contain a disease; there
fore .very little cost is very essen
tial in treating our potatoes. Mer
curic chloride, which is corrosive
sublimate, is recommended for the
treatment of sweet potatoes. Use this
as follows: Four ounces to 2 quarts
of hot water to dissolve crystals;
then make this up to thirty gallons,
w-ith cold water; merge the sweet
■potatoes for eight minutes, remove
[them from the solution, drain, and
!bed at once. Rinsing is not neces
sary.
For good smooth sweet potatoes,
[they should be grown on deep, sandy
I loam soil, well drained. The number
of plants generally used to the acre
j varies considerably according to I he
land and the individual's idea. From
nine to twelve thousand plaitt, are
generally used; from ten to twelve
thousand make a mighty good set
ting for ordinary land.
1 Fertilizing of -sweet potatoes is
very Important, as to the analysis,
| potatoes being a root crop, it re
! quires a large amount of potash. A
{good formula for sweet potatoes
I would be 8-4-3 or 8-4-10. The appli-j
i cation depends on the soil, but!
'should be used about six hundredi
| to eight hundred pounds to the acre)
| or more if the soil permits, a thous-j
| and pounds if necessary.

After Divorce
j Former Champ Says Movie Star ,
Wife Sent Him Away
From Her.
ltcno, Nav. April 13.—Jack
Dempsey, former heavy-weight
champion pugilist, is in Iteno for
I Dempsey admitted that he plan
jncd to institute suit against his wife,
; Estelle Taylor of the films. He de
clared she had put her career above
home life and her desire had wreck
ed their marital happiness.
‘‘X have not heard from Estelle
since I left Los Angeles on March
i ll," Dempsey said, “I took my clotli
ies and my farewell at her request.
■It was she who said ‘we are
through'."
He said he still loved his wife, but
that he wanted a home, a family
and family life, and declared it was
against his personal wishes that he
sought the divorce. He added he had
never been a “squawker," and would
not be now.
When they married, he said, it
was agreed Estelle would continue
acting as long as he actively engag
ed in fighting. When he quit the
ring she was to quit the films He
said istello. refused to do this and
that for the last two year* they ^ad
practically been apart.
The divorce complaint, he Ujti*
mated, probably would charge trs
compatainlity. He said there would
be no sensational charges and no
bitterness on his part.
Estelle regarded married life • ith*
