CINCINNATI, Aug. u, 1910.

MY Dear Colonel
enclose your speech as published in the Chill
icothe Advertiser. The reporter of yourspeech,
so far as you speak of General Harrison, has
surely miseonceived you. L not only so think,
but have SO said. An inference may be fairly
drawn, that you are not only in doubt as regarded
his courage, but that you had but little respect
for him as commanding General. Mypersonal
regard for you, induces alone to call your at
tention to the subject, and furnish you an eppor-
|tunity of correcting what conceive to be an err
|roneous and garbled report of what you did say
lin ChilGcothe on the 9th inst
From the enclosed remarks of Col. C. S. Todd,
you will at once discover that you take issue and
widely differ. If consistent with your feelings,
furnish me with your views on the subject. They
will be published or not, as you may desire.
Truly, your friend,
T. D. CARNEAL.

EARLY POTATOES.

One good mode Of raising potatoes early,
is 10 carry out basket full OF potaloes into
the garden in March as soon as the ost is
out OF the ground. Spread the potatoes out.
so as not to let one lie on another on the
grass--cover them over three inches deep
with horse manure--,hen some refuse hay
or slraw-then cover over with boards so
ugh that the hens cannot scratch them up.
10 few days, the sprouts will start out.
and before they aretwo inches in length. I'M
cover your hidden treasure. and carefully
transfer the seeds into your rows, prepared
with rotten compost. If the ends OF the
sprouts are allowed. on planting. to stick
above the surface, they will become vines
the sooner.
In this way we have forwarded our early
potatoes with more effect than in any other.
For when planted on, in din. or in manure
spread out so thin that il will no, soon heat.
The potatoes are long time in slarting--
