How TO PRESERVE POTATOES
following simple method of preserving po-
tatoes has been discovered by accident.
A person at Annaberg had quantity Of
charcoal in his cellar, which he remov ed
for the purpose Of deposiling a large heap
of potatoes in its place, but omitted to
sweep up the dus. at the bottom. Al the
end of the spring, when they generally
begin to sprout, he found that not one Of
these potatoes had germinated, and that on
being dressed, they retained all their ori.
ginal flavor.
To CURE THE EAR AcuE.-Take a piece
Of the lean of mutton about the size Of a
large walnut, put it into the fire and burn
it some time, till it becomes reduced al

clean rag, and squeeze it until some mois-

into the ear as hot as the patient can bear

weather. The reason is obvious; for in
cold weather the oil and other component
parts Of the paint, form hard substance
on the surface of the clapboard, nearly as
hard as glass, and not easily erased, or even
cut with sharp knife, and will not soon
wear off; whereas paints applied. in the

The Difference.

In Ohio the bankers are taxed upon the
profits of his capital, whilst the farmer is
taxed upon the capital itself. So that il
the banker makes nothing, ~ is not taxed
whilst the farmer is taxed JUS, as much il
his crops fail, as when he has an abun-
dant harvest. lfa banker fails in business
there is no remedy against him and he can
roll in wealth as before. Ifa farmer, me-
chanic, or laborer fails, his house, his lands
and his property are all swept from
him to pay his debts. This is said to be
equality in Ohio.--Wayne Co. Dem.

The Distance to Oregon.

The actual distance to be sailed from N
York to the mouth of the Columbia river
by the way of Cape Horn, is estimated a,
$4,000 miles. A ship canal to Panama,
to be cut through the Isthmus of Darien,
which is only thirty.seveh miles, would
save eight thousand miles, or more than
one half the distance, reducing the voyage
out and back TO less than the time req uirec
to make the passage out. The distance
from New York to the mouth of the Co.
lumbia river by land, is about 37OO miles.

The Objects of Farming.

The main objects Of farming, are OF
should be, two-fold viz:
!. The greatest net profit, with refer
ence, however.
E. To the improvement, or al least to
the preservation of the fertility Of the soil.
He that wears out his land by parsimo-
NOUS stinting Of manure, and labor, and
close cropping, with view 10 present gain,
may be compared to the incorporate man
who parts with his last COW that fed his
family, to crafty his incorporate indulgen-
ces. While good land always pays liber-
al reward to labor, poor land often beggars
its proprietor. The fault is often admit
ted, that our farmers cultivate too much
land 10 cultivate it we'll; that they are too
parsimonious of their expenditure to put
and keep it in good order; and that they
rely more upon propi,ions seasons, good
luck, and the special bountcs of Provi-
dence, for good crops, than they do upon
good management-upon the capital and
labor employed in the improvement oftheir
grounds. There is no sounder maxim for
the guidance of the farmer, than that
which teaches what you do, do WE'LL"

Best time to apply Paint.

1t has long been subject of inquiry as
to the best time to apply paint to the clap
boards (weather- -boarding) of houses for
durability. Repeated experiments have
been made, within twenty-five years past,
which have resulted in the conviction that
paint applied between November and
March, will stand more than twice as long
