Germany grows from 35.000.000 to
48.000.000 tons of potatoes annually.
The work of harvesting this immense
crop comes In the cold, wet days of
October, November and as late as De
cember. DntM quite recently this work
has been done by band, but of late
years several more or less successful
potato digging machines have been
tried, and the tendency is strongly to
ward the use of such machinery. If

Am Ameiemt Blacksmith.
A remarkable statue of the Gallo
Romap period of a blacksmith has
been excavated in Paris In a small
cemetery on the Rue Cassinh near Ob
senratolre. The figure wears a striped
cap. The face Is broad and beardless,
and the features are most.expressive.
This Is the only real statue of a black
smith in Paris of the ancient times.
All 'others are mere figures of Vulcan.
Under the statue was found the skel
eton of a powerful mgn. probably the
blacksmith represented. Coins dldbov

buried in the year 98, during the reign
of Trajan. The statue has been trans
