History of the Potato.

In a paper recently read by a Mr..
Crawford in London on "the relation
OF plants 70 ethnology." very short
but complete account was given of
the introduction Of the potato into
Europe. The potato is still found
on the western slope of the Andes,
the tubers, however, being do larger
than the common filbert. Even the
Indians, said Mr.. Crawfurd, cultivat-
ed the potato before the arrival of
the Europeans. 1t was first brought
from America TO Ireland, where it
was cultivated in 1856 but it is
said TO have been introduced into
Spain and Portugal even before that
date. From ireland it found its way
to the Low Countries and to Ger
many, and from Spain it reached It.
ally and France. 1t is an object of
cultivation in Asiatic countries only
where Europeans have colonized or
settled, and there chiefly for their
consumption. and only since the be.
ginning of the present century. 1t
is successfully cultivated in Australia
and New Zealand, where there is no
esculent farinaceous root at all, not
even the yam, the taro, or the man.

A TOUCHING PICTURE. is
lying on our table a photograph Of
the Peshtigo schoohouse, taken not
long before the fire, with the teach-
ers and children, Al in all, ranged in
line along the walk in front Of the
building. Many of our readers, and
most of our editorial friends in the
State, will remember this handsome
schoolhouse, costly empowered in a
pipe grove at the edge of the forest,
and built in most exquisite style, the
inside being wainscotted with woods
in their natural colors, vanished, but
not painted. 1t was designed for the
double purpose of chapel and school
house, and was constructed IN most
delicate taste throughout.
But that was nothing, compared
with the rest How many of those
children, prettily dressed, and stand
ing out there on that sunny day TO
have their pictures taken, survived
the terrible Sunday night of the Sth
of October? For many of them,
this is their last picture; and we
shall hang it upon our editorial walls

Agriculture in Common Schools.

The future is auspicious with evil
dences of a widely-spreading interest
in industrial education. Colleges are
everywhere springing up, and the
right men will eventually be found TO
fiji professorships, and great good
will finally result, while comparative
successes will, for many years, be
mingled with failures, in tue numer.
Gus experiments growing out Of these
great educational enterprises. But
the facilities 70 be furnished by these
schools will nevor reach, directly, the
great mass of the children in com.

TO introduce into every district school
in the country some primary works,
intoxicating elementary principles Of
science, 10 their application TO the
practice of agriculture? An interest
10 agricultural education would thus
arise among the youth in common
public schools, from whose ranks our
new industrial colleges would be fill.
cd. A series of such manuals, of
foreign origin, have been submitted
TO several officials and mon science,
by Mr.. Joseph l.. Smith, for recon-
mendation Of the introduction of such
means of instruction into the elemen-
tary schools Of the land. They in
volve the principles Of agricultural
geology, chemistry, farm accounts,
farm practice, and domestic economy,
and are written by Johnston, Steph.

others we'll known to science and to

GERS of theDepartment of Agriculture,
and others.
There is a want in this direction
that should soon be supplied by
American writers. The peculiar cir
cumstances of American agriculture
render necessary works expressly
prepared TO meet such conditions.
Who is able to prepare one or more
such manuals, in a manner worthy of
the subject and OF THIS progressive
era? He who could worthily accom-
plish it would be great public bene-
factor There arc good farmers who
know little Of science, and men of

also, thoroughly acquainted with az

TO apply correctly the principles of
abstract science TO the processes Of

lucid writer, who could thus unite
truth with action, and marry thought
to labor, would be worthy Of higher
honors than the greatest Swans Of
the time.

A Rat Hunt.

a correspondent writes to the De-
partment Of Agriculture from YER
million county, Illinois, chat the
Farmers Club, Of Elwood township,
recently resolved upon a general rat
hunt. The members were divided
into two parties with captains, who
also. divided the territory Of the coun-
ty. AT the termination of the hunt
the number of tails counted reached
4,67l, and the total number killed
was 7,4OO. The participants with
their wives-numbering in all about
200-took dinner at the expense OF
the party killing the smallest num-
ber." The correspondent adds -
THE damage that would have been
done by these rats in one year, al
lowing an ear Of corn per day to
each rat, would amount to over Sc,
500 for corn alone and it is reason>
able to suppose that this sum would
be doubled, were we TO include all
other damages. Dividing the amount
among the persons taking part in the
hunt, it would pay all their taxes and
leave surplus sufficient to repair
district school houses and furnish
large bells for the same. Let other
communities try rat hunt, and they
will have fine sport, sure remunera-
ton, and unmolested sleep at night"

SUGAR.-The prospect of cheap su-
gar is not very fiattering, The esti-
mate made some time ago for the
years crop will not be realized. The
foreign sources OF supply for this
country are Cuba, Porto Rico, Bra
I'll and the English colonies in the
West Indies. In Cuba the crop is an
average one, but will be late. The
last accounts from Porto Rico esti-
mate the crop short 10000 hogsheads
from that Of last year. The home or
louisiana crop is far behind what
it was expected to be.
France, which has been largely
supplied with beet sugar, will be a
purchaser Of cane sugar, owing to the
shortness Of the beet sugar in that
country. All these facts and many
others which might be given, go to
show that what we said at the out
set is likely to be true, viz that the
prospect of cheap sugar is not flatter-
ing.

WHERE THE CHOLERA IS GENERAT-
ED.-A medical officer in the English
army has written to theLondon Times
supporting the theory that the chol-
era is generated by tho vast assem-
blages at the monster Hindoo gather
iDgs on the banks of the Ganges.-
There are sometimes 300 900 Hindoos
gathered on these occasions, and a
severe epidemic is almost invariably
generated In the winter of 1866
there was all assemblage of this nac
ture, and in forty-eight hours after it
began very strongly accumulated
cholera broke out. The frightened
multitude fed in every diroction-to-
ward Persia and the Caspian. The
winter of 1866 checked its prog
ress somewhat, but it broke out again
early Ahis year Hence the rumor
that it originated in Persia. The
medical officer who relates these facts
accused the India Government of u
lack of moral courage in dealing with
the native ceremony which has such
deadly results. He says the CHOLERA,
by the channels of trade, is now on
its way to England, and nothing
short of miracle can stop its prog
ress

THE TEMPERATURES OF CELLARS
II is important that the temperature
Of cellars in which roots are stored
be kept sufficiently low. A little
above the freezing point is right for
them. If much warmer, early pota-
toes, onions, and turnips will sprout
and become damaged. No place on
the farm needs to have thermome-
ter kept there more than the root
cellar and constant atten ton should
be given to maintain an equal and
proper temperature.

STORING CEBBAGEs FOR WINTER -
The editor of the German town Telt-
graph has kept cabbages a dozen
winters in perfect state, in tho
following manner: "Plant or set
them up in rows as they grOw-that
is, with the roots down-fill in with
soil pretty freely, then make "a cover
ing by planting two posts where
there is fence to rest on, or four
where there is not, allowing for a
pitch to carry off the water lay bean
poles opposite the way of the pitch
and cover with corn fodder or straw
or boards. In using through the
winter, avoid as much as possible
the sun side and close up again"
