They have literally heroine a political football. The subsidy program has resulted in the Government buying a good many potatoes and under recently announced provisions these potatoes can go back on the land for fertilizer. There are several reasons for such a surplus of potatoes. For one thing we do not eat aa many as we used to a few yeirS back. Per capita consumption is now approximately 100 lbs; a few years ago it was 120 pou'.ids and about the time of World War I it was ISO pounds. In tnaQy Kurop^an countries per capita consumption is from 400 to 500 pounds. Secondly, the science of potato production has gone forward by leaps and bounds. New varities, ' fertilizer,- mechanical spraying all coupled with a good deal of "know how" on the part of the producer, has increased yields to the nth degree., EMILY POST AT HOME BUT HSElI AT THE WHEEL 9.

What makes an automobile driver an Emily Post as a host and a heel behind the wheel? The answer to that question would go a long way toward solving the traffic accident ^problem which brings death to more than 30,000 Americans every year, the National Safety Council says. Common courtesy is so important to safe driving that the month of March has been designated by the Council for a nationwide campaign on motor manners. The propaganda guns will be leveled at these six highbinders of the highway: GANGWAY «!*S -- This is the fellow who gallantly holds th« door open for the ladies or patiently waits his turn at a buffet luncheon. But at the wheel he's a "me-first" guy who bluffs out the right-of-way at every intersection, weaves and jockeys through heavy traffic and forces pedestrians to jump for their lives whett turning corners: . SI1> SfATBACli -- "What's the rish?" is his motto at home when it*s time to" mow the lawn or dress for dinner. Biit the minute he climbs in his car, every second counts. He roars away from stoplights. fudges on stop signs, slides his passenders off the seat when he stops, and on the open road kee|ta the speed needle around the 70 mark. KOMK1E KlLEROOk -- This character lectures his son op play ing the game according to the rules. At the bridge table he's a junior grade Culbertson when he quotes chapter and verse to his partner. But to him traffic regulations were written by dopes, an# he breaks them every time he thinks he can get away with it TOM TOOTER --• At home and in business, he believes that a "soft answer turneth away wrath' feut at the wheel he has a horn for m brain and blasts his way through traffic by sheer volume of sound. Many a pedestrian is prematurely gray from meeting him. BERT BULLHEAD -- This fellow can be either a driver or a pedestrian. He just won't give in to the other guy. He carries a great big chip on his shoulder and dares anyone to knock it off. But in the drawing room his friends think he is an agreeable cuss. GIL GALAHAD -- In his home, this fellow insists that you take the most comfortable chair or have the last piece of steak. But don't try to take the last parking space fronr him, or he'll lock fenders with you. at the drop of a hat. FOR SEPTIC TANKS & CESSPOOLS!
