Potatoes in the Bins.
INTERESTING FACTS FOR ''sPRoUTERs" TO
THINK OF.

INTERESTING FACTS FOR ''sPROUTERs" TO
THINK OF.
If the family supply of potatoes has been
stored in moderately warm place, they will
soon need attention. They must be looked
over and the sprouts rubbed of-or 'sprouted'
as it is termed. A dark, cool and dry place is
best. The cooler they are kept without freez-
ing, the less likely they will be to start. Rub
bling off the sprouts is good indoor work for
stormy weather, but as it is rather dirty and
mcnotonous it is not job that is much rel
ished. Persons do not generally like any work.
however easy, provided it is merely mechanical
and oficres no employment for mind as well as
the hands. Let us seeif there is not something
interesting in sproutng potatoes. Many of
the potatoes will be found to have bit of stem
attached-lhe remains of an under ground
stem, Of which the potatoe is the the enlarged
end. 1t is the channel through which the po-
tato received all its nourishment, and grew to
such rotund proportions but like many who
have grown fat and prosperous, it seems to have
forgotten the means by which it became so, and
instead of gi,in back any of the rich stores it
has received through it, the over-fed potato
leaves the little stem to perish. The new
sprouts all start from the eyes of the potato,
which are much more numerous and closer to-
gcther as we go from the stem end. These 20
tato eyes are arranged in peculiar manner If
we stat with an eye near the stem end it will
be found that the eye next above it is placed
little to the right, the next little to the right
of that. and so on, thus forming a regular spi-
raj. The arrangements best seen in the longer
varieties. The sprouts start first from the end
farthest from the stem, ana if these are allowed
to grow, many of the others will not start at
all. The potato having once made up its mind

wINTERING STOCK.

1t is an admitted truth with all farmers, that
if stock is in a healthy and thriving condition
at the setting in of winter. an important point
is gained toward carrying them through the win
ter. If they are in good, high flesh when the
cold season sets in, it is so much gain TO their
healthfuness for, the more flesh, the greater
warmth the animal possesses and the more
warmth it possesses, the less food is necessary
to keep it in thriving order This, farmers
have found TO be so true, that they use all pre-
caution to give their animals warm and dry
sheds and stables. They are yet in one error,
however, by making their stables too dark
These apartments should be well glazed for
two reasons light is as important for the COM
fort Of animals as it is for men. The eye of a
horse, or an OK or COW, will suffer from being
taken from a dark room into the light, as much
as that Of person. In the second place, ami
mails will be more gentle in light stable where
they can see what is going on around them
than they will in dark one where every sound
produces fear, and fear brings uginess
There is another point in favor OF glued win
dows in stables especially if those windows are
so arranged a TO admit the suns rays They
introduce much warmth, which as have said
is a saving of food to animals. | have found
by actual observation, that there is difference
Of eight or ten degrees in the temperature of

is willing hereafter to do without them?

If we examine pototoe eye closely several

The potato looks like stupid thing, but it
seems to show kind Of instinct. The sprouts
in the bin or barrel, far away from the earth,
throw out roots which GO travelling off in search

We have often thought if a mother was anxious

do very little harm. But to expose the bnby's

most pernicious practice Put the bulb of n

evening cool, the mercury will sink to 40 deg.
Of course, all the blood which flows through
those arms must fall to within 80 or 40 deg.

VENTILATION IN STABLEs.-rhe great NOR.
Iality occurring amongst the hos,es of the
French cavalry has been diminished by more
than one half by increasing the amount of air
supplied to the stables, no other change in the
management having occurred. At the end OF
the Italian war, 10000 cavalry were left with
no sabIing but mere temporary sheds but the
mortality was quite insignificant and not sn
gle case of glandels occurred. The French
Government are now trying some experiments
with respect TO the results of the exposure of
horses to even currents of air, some of the re-
suits having proved of most favorable kind.
As might be expected, the eff cts Of the I'M
proved ventilation of stables have been still
more fully exhibited with respect to sick aud
wounded horses.
