real estate and working actively in politics. Cas-

talk too much. When In the Senate he
debates on almost every proposition. He is
disposed, however, TO stand In opposition TO the
large monopolies that are charged with ruling that

positive Greeley man. and Casserly has come over
that way although he Ia never very enthusiastic for
anybody. Gwin processes to he a thorough recon

for the past, and he believes In Greeley. The rest
Of the California delegation is not important.
II is very evident, as we scan the faces OF the
arriving delegates and look over the lists Of those
yet to come that the large majority OF the men
who are at the head OF the new movement are
really new men, and that we are living, to a great
degree, among new generation.

REMEMBER THE BABY.

hang up the baby's stocking;
Be sure you don't forget
The dear little dimpied darling
She never saw Christmas yet;
But I've told her all about it,
And she opened her big blue eyes,
And I'm sure she understands 1t,
She looked so funny and wise.
Uear what a tiny stocking
Il doesn't take much to hold
Such little pink toes as haby's
Away from the frost and cold.
But, then, for the baby's Christmas
Ii never would do at all;
Why Santa wouldn't be looking
For anything half so small
l know what wen do for the baby,
I've thought Of the very best plan
III borrow a stocking OF grandma,
The longest that ever can;
And you'll hang itby mine, dear mother,
Right here in the corner, so,
And write a letter o Santa,
And fasten il on 10 the toe,
Write: "Thisfs the baby's stocking
That hangs In the corner here;
You never have seen lter, Santa,
For she only came this year
But she's just the blessedest baby
And, now, before You 90,
just cram her stocking with goodies,
From the top clean down TO the toe"

The best time for painting the ex-
terror of buildings is late in autumn or
during the winter, Paint then employed
will endure twice aslong as when applied
in early summer, or in hot weather. In
the former it dries slowly and becomes
hard, like a glazed surface, not easily af-
fected afterward by the weather or worn
off by the beating of storms. But in
very hot weather the oil in thepaint soaks
into the wood at once, as into a sponge,
leaving the lead nearly dry, and nearly
ready to crumble Oft This last diff.
Guilty, however, might be guarded against,
though at an increased expense, by first
going over the surface with raw OIL BY
painting in cold weather, one annoyance
might certainly be escaped, the collection
Of small flies in the fresh paint. Tie

Roots in Cellars.

Every farmer knows, or thinks he
knows, how to take care Of potatoes for
winter use, but we will describe briefly
our methods. Dig the potatoes, if posi-
BILE, when the ground is dry; but if this
cannot or has not been done, they should
be allowed to dry on barn floor, the ad-
herring soil removed and then the roots
may be carried to the cellar. We pro-
vide large boxes, which will hold about
twenty bushels each (cast-oH tree boxes,
raise them few inches from the cement
floor by cross pieces of scantling, and
then fill them with the clean and dry po-
tatOes. A lid excludes them from the
light. If there happen to be few wide
cracks in the bottom of the box, the ven
tilation will be better; and if the tubers
are clean and the cellar cool, there will be
little of the rot.
Beets, turnips, carrots and parsneps
will not keep fresh in this way, as they
have not the impervious skin of the pc
tato. Our plan is to pack them in baI-
rels, or goods-bOxes procured from the
country stores. They will shrivel and
spoil if the moisture is not retained in
them by some substance to pack them in,
or to fill the interstices. Finely broken
and moderately damp moss is best for
this purpose; but in its absence saw-dust
answers quite well. At this season of the
year there is great deal of this material
in the ice-house, after the removal of the
ice, that is quite damp enough for use.
Put in layer or two of the roots; then
scatter enough of the sawdust over them
to fill the interstices, then another layer,
and so on. In barrels, more roots may
be put in at time, the sawdust being
shaken among them by rocking the bar
rels. Packed in this way, we have seen
beets taken out one full year after they
were put in, as fresh as the day they were
lifted from the soil while those which
were placed uncovered on the cellar bot
tom were spoiled in a month by drying
up. -COuhtT,y Gentleman.

The New York Weekly Tribune AgrI-
cultura11y Considered.

The Weekly Tribune, now more than thirty
years old, has kept up with the progress OF
the age in improvement and in enterprise. It
devotes a large share of its columns to Agri-
culture, as the most essential and general Of
human pursuits. 1t employs the ablest and
most successful cultivators to set forth in
brief, clear essays, their practical views of
the Farmers work. IL reports public dis
cussions which elucidate that work; gathers
from every source agricultural news, the re-
ports Of the latest experiments, the stories
of the latest successes and failures, and
whatever may tend at once to better Agri-
culture, and to commend ii as the first and
most important of progressive Arts, based
on natural science.
There are hundreds Of thousands engaged
in diverse pursuits who own or rent a
place" and give some portion of their time
to its culture and improvement. The Weekly
Tribune shows them how to make the most
of their roods and their hours, both by drec-
ton and example. No information equal in
quality or quantity can be elsewhere obtain
ed for the price Of this journal.
1he weekly Tribune appeals also to Teach
ers, Students, and persons Of inquiring
minds, by the character Of its Literary con-
tents, which include reviews of an the works
proceeding from the master minds of the
Old or Of the New World, with liberal ex-
tracts from those of especial interest. I'm
aginative Literature also claims attention,
but in subordinate degree. "Home Inter
ests" are discussed weekly, by lady spe-
cially qnalided to instruct and interest her
own sex, and the Younger portion OF the
other. No column is more eagerly sought or
perused with greater average profit than
hers. The News OF the Day, elucidated by
brief comments, is so condensed that no
reader can deem ii diffuse, while given sur
1ciently IN detail to satisfy the wants of the
average reader. Selections are regularly
made from the extensive Correspondence of
The DaaY Tribune from every country and
its editorials of more permanent value are
| here reproduced. In short, The Weekly
Tribune commends itself to Millions by
miRistering to their intellectual wants more
fully than they are met by any other journal,
whie its regular reports of the Cattle, Coun-
try Produce, and other Markets, will OF
themselves save the farmer who regularly
notes them far more than his journals price.
