Another Eenedy for Potato Rot.

I'VE know the writer Of the following
as an intelligent and close observer, who
is not likely 10 be the dupe of his own
fancy, and We shall at least put faith
enough in his theory to subject il to the
test Of experience His observations on
the cause Of Potato Rot are withheld, since
there seems to be no serious demur to the
presumption that said cause is to be found
in the rssages Of an exceedingly minute,
quick -darting, winged insect, as cur cores
pondent afTirms. He informs US that these
insects have already made their appearance
in his garden this spring, and that they are
likely to be exceedingly destructive this
season unless counteraeted. Here is his ]
REMEDY FOR POTAro Ror.-Take Of
hard wood charcoal dust, made fine by
grinding in plaster or other mill, Eve
parts BY measure one part of fine Stacked
lime, or in the absence Of lime, plaster Of
Paris, Gypsum; mix well together.
Then make small sacks of coarse open
cotton cloth, that will contain three or four
quarts; fiji the bag with the mi :ure
take the bag and shake some Of tie dus5
upon the potato ie.v wb:ia the dew IS
on the tops. Th.- ca %. 5onc very rap-
idly, as the furnace e 1iier das:s his
molds. 1 would recon.-nsEG Ills 70 l..
done twice in the season, at r-7,onaale
periods. do not rely on the lime u plss-
ter only to make the >harco,i tdst stick 10
the leaves. Il Is aeli known that no in
sect will choose to live near charcoal for
rsasoLs which chemists assign-therefere
charcoal dust is The remedy. Try it;
whoever approves Of the cause will approve
of the rencdy-whoever tries the remedy,
prove the cause - 20
/ am ready to compare notes and argue
against any other Potato Rot theory that
is made public, end in most of them will
take their theory to prove mine correct.
Yours, JAMES RICHARDSON,
West Poultney, Vt
FRIEND GREELEY: If my theory, after
critical examination by good judges, and
practice, is found to be correct, shall be
"illing to take any premium that is now
offered to competitors. You arc at liberty
to make what use you see ct, the public
and my interest being mutual. J.R-

A Canciful Gate.

A correspondent of the Home journal
give, pleasant account of gate he pass
cd through. The gate was common one,
shut by chain and ball But the post to
which tie inner end Of the chain was
attached was carved and painted in the
likeness Of negro, with or.e hand raised
to his cooked hat, and the other extended
to welcome you in. As YOU opened the
gate toward you, in going in, the negro
pos.-poin;er bent toward you, by joint
in his back fairly towing you in. Upon
letting the gate go to, spring in his bach
" brought him up standing again, ready
for the next conner This faithful fellow
performed the amiable for bis master for
many years, without reward, except now
and then new cost-of paint and finally
died Of rheumatic back, contracted in bis
masters service.

The Missouri Reputation.

The Nebraska bill is Of great length,
aud much Of it mere vorbiage, which no.
body would read if We were to print it. 1,
vests in the Governors (appointed at Wa
shington) of the two new Territories Veto
on the acts Of the Territorial Legislature,
vest the Right Of Suffrage in free rdites
exclusively Gueluding all the foreign-born
who shall have declared their intention and
sworn to support The Constitution of the
United States)and disposes Of the Missouri
Inhibition Of Slavery in those Territories
in this backhanded fashion:
Sec. 2. And be 1t further enacted, = y
That the Constitution and all laws of the
United States which are not locally inap-
plicable, shall haye the same force and ef-
feet within the said Territory of Kansas as
elsewhere within the United States, except
the eighth section of the act preparatory to
the admission Of Missouri into the Union,
approved March G, 1920, which, being in
consistent with the principle of non-inter-
vention by Congress with Slavery in the
States and Territories, as recognized by the
legislation of 1850, commonly called the
Compromise Measures, is hereby declared
imperative and void; it being the true in
tent and meaning of this act not to legis-
late Slavery into any Territory or State,
nor to exclude it tberefrom, but to leave
the people thereof perfectly free to form
and regulate their domestic institutions in
their own way, subject only to the Consti-
tuition of the United States: Provided,
That nothing herein contained shall be con-
strued to revive or put in force any law or
regulation which may have existed prior
to the act Of March 6, 1920, either protect
ing, prohibiting or abolishing Slavery in
the Territory.

in English do not much exceed thousand;
in German, Becker has reduced them TO
about six hundred in French, Charassin
and Francois to about fifteen hundred ;
aud in Latin or Greek, they do not num-
ber more than seven or eight hundred.
To compile, then, book of exercises on
any language, the best plan would be to let
them turn on the radical words. These
once mastered in every possible comoina-
tion, it would be easy to master all the de-
rivatives by study Of formation of words
and permutation of letters. To arrive at
this point, if assisted by proper books. and
an intelligent and skilful teacher thorough
ly familiar with the language to be taught,
