Mr.. Dickinson, of Hornby, Sseuben
county, N. Y, furnishes the Nes York
Tribune with the fo,lowing mode of pre-
venting the potato rot. Cut each potato
so as to leave but two eyes on eachpieec,
and make that piece as thin as is practi-
cable without injuring the chit 50 set. If
you plant in drills, put these pieces
twelve inches apart; if in hills, put three
in hill. OF course, the core Of the po-
talo-ihree forths of its bulk, if large
one-is LETT to be eaten or otherwise dis
posed of. By this mode the seed goes
far, and, should it attempt to rots it can
do comparatively little harm. A large,
whole potato will send up larger and
more vigorous stalks, but will give no
ampler yield. As a further preventive
against rot, Mr.. d. gives his potato and
most other seeds thin coating of ta-,
applied as follows: Pour a. pint of tar in
to ten gallons of boiling water and stir
till thoroughly dissolved. Soak five
bushels of potato seed, cut as already in
dicatod, in this iar-water. Nowroll in
plaster, taking up as much Of il as pos
sible, and your seed is ready for plant

"I DID as THE REST DID"

This tame, yielding spirit, this doing
"as the rest did," has ruined thousands.
A young man is invited by vicious
companions 10 visit the brothel, gambling
room, or other haunts Of licentiou
He becomes dissipated, spends his time,
loses his credit, squanders property, and
at last sinks into an untimely grave
What ruined him? Simply "doing as
the rest did"
A father has family of sons. He is
wealthy. Other children in the same
situation of life do SO, are INDUCED in
this thing and that. He INDUCES his
own in the same way. They grow up
idlers, trifers and fops. The father
wonders why his children do not succeed
better. He has spent so much money
on their education-but alas they are
only a source of vexation and trouble.
Poor man |! he is just paying the penalty
of "doing as the rest did,"
This poor mother strives hard to bring
up her daughters genteely. They learn
what othars do, to paint, TO sing. to
dance, and few useful matters. In time
they marry their husbands are unable
to support their extravaganza. and they
are soon reduced to poverty and wretch

SALT RISING BREAD.

!
Having seen a number of articles in
the Ohio Calticotor on the subject Of salt

which the writer in her Letters from the
Kitchen, maniiests decided preferences
for hop yeast bread, | will like 10 COM

and my saltrising. If the -four is gooa
and the rising attended to at the proper
time, (that is as soon as light it will
never become putrid. will now give
you my manner of proceeding with that
kind of bread:
Early in the morning, say as soon as
FIVE o'clock. take a vessel of about q
quart size and fiji it one third full of wa
ter milk warm, adding three table spoons
full of new milk, and of salt and sugar,
each as much as you can hold between
the thumb and foreinger, then stiriin as
much flour as will make thick batter.
Set il in a kettle of warm water If the
weather is cool, and keep il al an even
temperature I'LL fermentation takes place,
which will be in four or five hours; then
take as much h)ur as viii make two
large loaves and teaspoon full Of salt
added. Scald about one third of the hour
with water a Little below the boiling
point. (this makes the bread sweet and
mois, the tlco main sxalities in good
byecd), then add enough milk and wafer
to make the paste sufficiently cool, so as
not to scald the rising, which will bear
pretty high temperature; then mix in
your rising and knead quick and thor
oughly. Lay your loavs in good baking
pans, set in warm place, cover with a
clean cloth and lay on the top Of that
light pill,w TO keep the warmth from es-
Gaping. Your bread viii be ready for
the oven in about one hour. Bake till it
is light brown color and is thoroughly
done. 1f rs ua % s14I
Now FL. L. will follow my directions
(albeit she came from the same direction
that the wise men came from. | will
guaranty that her "AUToc7Ar" will have
no reason to complain Of bad bread.

A SWEET MISTAKE.

Piccolomini, the pet of the opera, has
been in Cincinnati. She stopped at the
Spencer House. A young and handsome
Buckeye was there, too, to meet sister
absent for two years past in School in
Kentucky. His sister had arrived before
him. Learning the number of her room,
he thought to surprise her. 1t was near
ly dark-he saw, as he thought, his
sister coming out of her room, and step
ping against the wall till she came up.
he caught her in his arms and smothered
her with kisses, saying: "Don't you
know your brother. you little rogue -
1t was the plump and pretty Pic, who
retreated in amiable perturbation to her
room. Fearing a call for coffee and pis-
tols from some other brother, he explain
ed his mistake to Col. Pratt, the landlord.
lie wrote her a note OF apology, on her
account rather than his own. saying the
mistake had only occurred because she
was as beautiful as his sister. He would
make humble apology, and if still not
satisfied, he was willing 10 return what
he had taken.
She laughed at The posture of affairs.
though perhaps it was an American GUS
