ASHES FOR PoTAToEs.-Rufus
Brown, of Chelsea, Orange County,
Vermont, says that in an expert
ment tried by him, the gain in a
crop OF potatoes by the use of ash
es at the rate of a teacupful to the
hill, was about a bushel and a half
of potatoes for each busel of ashes
used. The kind of potatoes was
the English pink-eye, and yield 200
bushels per acre. The ground
was planted May !, with the ashes
in holes, and little dirt over them.
1t was plowed and hoed June is,
the rows being { feet apart and
hills three feet. The ashes cost
1912 cts. q bushel, and potatoes
sold at 80 cents, returning full 50
cents a bushel for the ashes en-
ployed.

The CoRS GEUB-The corn
crop has several formidable ene-
mics to contend with, and among
them is the grub, which sometimes
literally destroys whole fields, and
frequently damages the crop seri-
ously. One OF the best and most
iudicious neutrality-suspicious. the
very best ever suggested--is the
application Of salt az soon as the
plant makes Its appearance above
ground, prepared and used in this
way: Take one part common salt
and three parts plaster or gypsum,
and apply about a tablespoonful
>tround each hill, and it will be
found to be sure protection. The
mixture should not come in con-
tact with the young plants, as it
may destroy them. This method
has been tried over and over again
bv some Of the best farmers of
Pennsylvania, Delaware and Jersey
and when properly applied, has
never failed to be perfectly sue
cessful. We hope our farmers,
who have reason to fear the depre-
dations Of the grub, this season,
viii try this mixture, leaving few
alternate rows of corn without the
salt, and communicate to Us the re-
sult.-Germanto2cn Ielegraph.

PEAS WITH PoTAToEs.@W When
planting your potatoes, drop from
six to eight peas i'll each hill, or if
in arrow, every three or four inches
II single pea. In this way a crop
may be raised at very small ex-
pense. As the peas start early in
the season, they will be sufficiently
advanced to be out of the way by
the time the potatoes are large e.
nough to hoe. Peas raised in this
way will generally be less liable to
suffer from the attack of the bug
or fy; the crop will also be much
puror or free eXtranerous matters,
Which are an injury to the peas,
whether designed for market or
for domestic use. The large mar
rowfat pea IS perhaps the very
best variety that can be selected
for this mode Of cultivation. 1t
Yields well, Is highly edible, and

is Thought not to be so productive
as many of the smaller varieties.
Where the soil is aflluent, it ex-
hibits an incorrigible tendency to
produce an exhorbitant quantity

INERTIA OF THE OLD WoRLD.-In Italy
you sec a farmer breaking up the ground with
his two cows, a root of a tree for a pillow, while
he Is DIRE sed in skins with the hair On. In
Rome, Vienna and Dresden, if you hire a man
to saw wood, he does not bring a saw-horse-
he never had one, nor his father before him
but he places one end of the saw On the
ground and the other on his breast, and takes
the wood in his hand and rubs it against the
saw and he will be all day doing twoh hours
work. 1t is a fact, that in Florence, a city
filed with triumphs of art, there is not a sim
gle aueer, and if a carpenter would bore a hole,
he does it with q red-hot poker!
