How to Keen Potatoes.

More potatoes are spoiled through sweating
than freezing. Inever lose any, but save them
thus: raise the place six inches where Iwsnt

throw the potatoes on, shaping Ike pyramid,
and cover thickly with straight clean straw. I
then commence at the bottom, throwing on the
earth and trsmping it hard with my feet; one
foot thick is plenty. When within foot of
the top, make hole in the straw with nv
hand and put in 8 small funnel, one foot long
and three inches square. Close the straw tight
around the funnel, and cover closely with earth,
clapping the hole solid with the spade. Let the
funnel remain two weeks. tcoYer 1t with small

Management of Cream in Cold Weather

Management of Cream in Cold Weather.
For some reason not yet known. cream skim
med from milk in cold weather, does not come
to butter. when churned, so quickly as that
from the same COW in warm weather. Perhaps
the pslliclss, which form the little sacs of but
ter in the cream, are thicker and tougher.
There are two methods Of obviating this troub-
lie in great degree. One Is, to set the pan Of
milk on the stove, or in some warm place a.
soon as strained, and let it remain until quite
warm-soms say, until bubble or two rises. or
until skim of cream begins 10 fo,m on the
surface. Another mods recommended, is to
add tablespoonful Of sals to quart OF cream
when It isskimmed. Cream thus prepared, win
generally come to butter in a few minutes when
ehurned. 1t 10 thought the ssls acts upon the
essting Of the butter globules and makes them
tender, SO that they break readily when beaten

Northern emigration, from Missouri, Iowa,
Illinois, Wisconsin or Michigan, either for Cal.

braska, will find mail route to this point, on
a State Road from Des Moines, Iowa; and a.
good roads through Missouri, by way of Sassn-
nah and Oregon, to this place, as to any other
point on the river. There are good landings
on both sides of the river; and on the Kansas
side, all streams and soughs, to the Nemaha,
have free bridges, recently made for the Gov.
eminent trains from this place to Salt Lake
and Utah. We can say to the Californis emf
grafton, that they can strike the old California
Road within IL miles of this place. and they
will find good grazing for stock within half .
mile of the river, and plenty of wood and water
on the route to the Big Blue, only 80 miles from
here; and they will find this road ever 40 miles
shorter than the road from st. Joseph, and over
50 miles shorter than that from Leavenworth
We refer persons to the map, in proof of this
statement; and We only ask emigrants and ira
vellers to try this route, and We pledge our
selves to pass them over the river free, on heir
return, il they are not satisfied of the foregoing
facts. -s. e.. f1 1a..s.-

there is no time TO talk or send for physician

through them. and twist It around tighter till
the blood ceases 10 aow. Only severed arteries
throw blood in jets, and they get their blood
from the heart; hence, to stop the flow, the
remedy must be applied between the heart and
wound-in other words, above the wound. If
vein had been severed, the blood would have
flowed in Q regular stream, and slowly, and, on
the other hand, the tie would be below the
wound, or on the other side Of the wound from
the heart. because the blood in the veins flows
toward the heart, and there is no need Of such
