usual tl. The Eighth caralry In-
firmary is also 10 percent.
The percergage as shown In the

day night and Is offered by Mr. Coop
as an evidence of esteem in which the
Red Cross Is held at the pest.
"Each soldier member must feel

Millions Of Bushels
Of Giant Potatoes
Fargo V. t). Not. z7. North ra-
I.tta. if forced to It. could lire for
twelve months on the potatoes it pro-
duced this year. It might not be a
good diet to plow or pitch hay on.
but what is home without a potato?
The potato crop Just harvested
amounted to ?4Ssos bushels ac-
cording to A. J. Strrrat of the United
states bureau of crop estimates.
Firuring each potato weighs a half
pound which Is said to be a good
average though some North Dakota
potatoes weigh five pounds there are
ICO potatoes In a bushel or SJS.0SO.-
f'OQ potatoes In the crop. The popula-
tion of North Dakota being around
$00000 this means lilt potatoes a
year for each person or three po-
tatoes a dav. In war ttme In fier
many families of five persons fared
comiortamy on such rations. But as
babies don't eat potatoes and there
are lots of babies In North Dakota
each potato eating unit of the popu-
lation might be calculated to have
an allowance of four spuds a day.
With the transformation of North
Dakota In recent years from a great
wheat field into a diversified farming
country the humble spud has taken
ar. important rank in farm products.
Last year's yield was 5670000 bushels
and the average of the state through-
nut its agricultural history has been
rS570OO bushels annually.
Monuments For Roads
Traveled By Lincoln
Springfield I1L Nov. 27. Monu-
mental posts are soon to be erected
In 18 counties in central Illinois to
mark the road traveled by Abraham
Uncoln in 1S47 when he was most ac-
tively engaged in the practice of law.
In those days Lincoln and other
lawyers of the vicinity traveled with
the court then Judge David Davis
over what was known as the eighth
judicial circuit. Horses and buggies
were used it taking sometimes more
than a day to travel from one court-
house to another.
The monuments will be erected on
the county lines and boulder markers
will also be erected in each county
seat where judge Davis held court.
The work has been promoted by an
organisation formed for the purpose
called the Lincoln Circuit Marking
association.

Newport. R. I Nov. 27. Newport-
crs are demanding five-cent pie In-
stead of the ten-cent crtlcle they

loaea to the old five and ten-
ant loaves is under way.
