HARWSBURG TETJEGIdPH iPOTATOES HELD BY FARMERS NOW FLOOD MARKET Prices Way Down and Grow ' crs Arc Sure to Be Big Losers The present supply of old potatoes | which the government is urging the ■public to consume in preference to j the new ones which aro now coming j in is the result of the refusal of the I farmers to ship stocks last fall. I Provision merchants and commis sion men declare that the farmers ir*e now paying for their folly/ "The Federal Food Board's appeal to the public to eat potatoes is all right, but it has come too late," said P. Willis Holden, a large New York provision merchant. "The public must take advantage of the low price of potatoes to save wheat, of course, but whether this will be_ enough to savq last year's potatoes from rot ting on the farms is another mat ter." , What the public can consume be tween now and May. 15, when old potatoes will be out of season, is only a drop In the 2 bucket, so far as saving the potato situation Is con cerned. The great influx of old potatoes Is keeping down the price of new ones, which are coming in from Florida at tho rate of twenty carloads a day. The present price, $5 a barrel of three bushels, is ruinous to the farm ers. The Florida farmers expected at least a barrel. Last year at this time they were getting from sll to sl2. Their season ends on May 25, and there is no hope of retrieving their losses. Last year's potato crop was huge. There were 4 40.000.000 bushels of potatoes on the farms last fall, and the farmers held thyn for higher priees. Allowing 100.000.000 bush els for seed it meant that every member of the potato-eating popu lation of the United States had to consume five bushels between No vember 1 and June 1. The result is that this year's po tato planting is 80 to 40 per cent less than last year's. The banks are reluctant to linance this year's crops- Pie Is Given Smashing Blow on Top Crust Reading, Pa.—Pie, one of Berks county's most hallowed and cherish ed dainties in matters culinary, was hit a staggering blow on the crust when local Food Administrator Da vies announced that hereafter the crust will have to include 33 1-3 per cent, of wheat substitutes. He ex plained that pie lias fallen under fed eral disfavor because of the large amount of fats and wheat that are used in its making. Mr. Davies says that all pies will have to conform to the new rules and that there will be drastic pun ishment for violations. Bakers al ready are protesting that good pie cannot be made with 33 1-3 per cent, of substitutes in the crust- Mr. Da vies replies that this will accomplish the very purpose sought—to discour age the baking of pie. Notice is given that Ice cream cones, pastry of all kinds and fried cakes of all kinds, battel- cakes, waf fles. etc, are Included in the new ruling. t Mother of 25 Has Affinity Arrested woman hamed Rosinia Flutter, who appeared at Chertsey recently, was stated to be the moth er of twenty-five children, including five pairs of twins. She summoned an unmarried mu nition worker for alleged assault, i She admitted an infatuation for him. and said she had received a solici tor's letter asking her to stop her unwelcome attentions. She had sent him letters which she now describes as a lot of rubbish. ENROLLMENT OF FARM BOYS MAKES PROGRESS Enrollment of boy farmers is mak ing progress, says L. H. Dennis, the Public Safety Committee's director of farm service. In Harrisburg a fund has been raised to provide free transportation .to State College for recruits who the training camp there on 30. Wllkes- Barre and Scranton each have 140 boys enrolled. Six new counties have just applied for camps. Ad ams county wants two and Dauphin two.

SUGAR IS FOOD Sugar is a valuable food, a power ful stimulant, and a great producer of heat and nerve force. Arctic explorers, and other persons ( who have to do very hard work un der extremely trying climatic condi tions. invariably develop an Intense craving for sugar, and eat enormous quantities of it* The Klondyke miners even sweeten their salt pork with it. and it has been found that those who eat large quantities of sweets do twice the work of men who let sugar alone. The Italian Alpinl soldiers, who are called upon to march and fight nt nigh altitudes, carry a liberal supply of sugar in their kits whenever pos sible. Negroes in the harvest fields iron- fat on sugar cane, although j their diet in other respects is neither j varied nor abundant.
