PEAS AND POTATOES STRANGE Result.
A French agriculturist made last year
a singular experiment, the success
OF which has surpassed all expecta-
tions. He planted four potatoes, two
of which received each bean, and the
other two each pea In very short
time the peas and beans brought forth
very vigorous shoots, which furnished
to their proprietor four copious dishes.
But the most remarkable thing was
that the potatoes sprouted wonderfully
and were not touched by disease. Still
more, the tuberclos multiplied them
selves extraordinarily; the first stop
yielded thirty-eight fibres second
thirty; the third twenty-nine. and the
fourth twenty-eight-all very healthy.
We have planted sixteen potatoes.
oil Of which have received pea and a
bean. Never have we noticed more
vigorous vegetation. The shoots of
the potatoes, as well as those Of the
peas, have universally averaged a
heighth of from five 20 six feet. The
tubercles, which were numerous, meas
ured, for the most part, from sixteen
TO eighteen inches in circumference.
The whole production is four minots
and quarter. As to the peas the
husks were also very numerous. but
most Of them could not ripen, because
they found themselves enyeloped in a
mass of shoots and leaves The tu-
bercles had been planted too near each
other
This experiment has been made by
an agriculturist of Isle dOrleans. II,
has planted three potatoes, all Of which
had received a pea. These three po
tatoes yielded forty-seyen tubercles
quite remarkable for size This agri
culturist is so woil satisfied with IN
result of his experiment that he ha
decided to follow this same metho
for all his potatoe planting the mex

FEEDNe CALVES A friend of ours
says the Genesee Farmer. who has
great success III raising calves on
skinned milk and Corn pudding.
adopts the following method: He new
en- lets the calf suck the COW. but teach
os 1t to drink out of pail When the
calf Is three or four days old. he takes
a tcaspoonful.of corn meal and pours
a pint of hot water over it. stirs it M
and let's it scald for n few minutes.
He then pours on three or four quarts
of SKINNED milk, or rs much as the
calf can drink. In the mean time he
has q piece of iron heating. which.
when red hot he stirs in the milk. This
'scorching the milk he consider Of the
greatest Importance when calves are
fed on skinned mill-it prevents it
from securing the calves. As the calf
grows older he increases the quantity
of corn-meal When three weeks old,
he gives a pint at least, at each meal
The milk at first is only twelve hours
from milking, but as the calf grows
older the milk may be allowed to stand
"a TO 36 hours before Swimming.

Coon Wool. The first requisite for
good wool is fnencss, which is gov
erned by and produced under the laws
Of stocl1-raising, ms the breed of vari-
ETY., climate, the summer and winter
food Of the sheep and their manage
ment.
The second requisite is softness. This
depends on the character of the yoll1
or oily secretion that fills the tube of
the hair or fibre. This yolk crystal
ICES in the fibre after shearing, and
renders it brittle and harsh, on soft
and silky, according as its character is
formed 10y those matters which govern
its growth.
The last requisite is the length Of the
wool or of the fibre composing it, and
this is governed by climate changes
and the condition of the animal.

THE REBEL DEDr-The Richmond
Sentinel reports that $196,S83,000 of
the rebel debt had been funded and
taken by the different States, while n
large portion of the Confederacy re-
mains to be heard from 1t estimates
the total amount taken at $250,000,-

their condition. After all, however,
they lack this essential, credit

EARLY TUhS1rs-Among the great
variety of wholesale vegetables which
can be grown favorably in this climate.
many esteem the common flat turnip
as among the best. When crisp, ten
der and juicy, it certainly is entitled to
considerable merit In this condition
it will cook readily, and dressed with
a little salt, pepper and sweet butter,
is an acceptable and nutritious food.
To secure the qualities mentioned, it
should be sown early, that is, as soon
as the soil is in favorable condition,
ON new ground if possible, and as
fast as the plants appear sprinkle them
with ashes, plaster, snuff or ANYTHING
else that viii tend to keep the little
black fly from destroying them. If
they escape this ordeal, keep all weeds
away from them, and if the season is
favorable they viii make a surprising
growth, and perhaps become fit for the
table in the early part of July The
ground should be hood occasionally,
and the plants thinned so as to stand
nine or ten inches apart. In this po-
sition they viii not grow SO large as
though farther apart, but Will be more
tender, crisp and juicy. We have
raised fiat, purple-top variety which
is excellent, which has recently been
introduced III England.

How 70 WALK.-In q graceful hui
man step the heel is always raised be-
fore the foot is lifted from the ground,
as if the foot were a part OF a wheel
rolling forwards and the weight Of the
body, supported by the muscle of the
calf of the legs, rests TOR time on the
forepart of the foot and toes There
is then a bending Of the foot in a GER
tain degree. But when strong wood
en- shoes are used, or any shoe so stiff
that it will not yield and allow the
bending of the foot, the heel is not
raised mt AL until the whole foot rises
with it, so that the muscles of the
calf IRE scarcely used, and, in conse-
quence, soon dwindle in size and al
most disappear. Many English farm
servants Wear heavy, stiff shoes, and
in London it is II striking thing to see
the drivers OF country wagons with
fine robust persons in the upper part,
but with legs that are fleshless spin
dies, producing gait that is almost
awkward and unmanly. The brothers
of these men, who are otherwise en-
ployed, are not misshappen. What a
pity that, for the trihe saved fair ma
ture should be thus dcformed! An
example of this kind is seen in Paris.
There, MS the streets have few on no
side payemonts, and the ladies have to
walk almost constantly on tiptoe, the
great action of the muscles of the cali
has given conformation Of the limb
and foot to match which the Partisan
bellies proudly challenge all the world

aritv of their form is I'm mart owing
