priating SOB Is, the proceeds of bale of
cotton intrusted with him to be sold; the
proceeds of an account of $55 so intrusted
to him for collection, and 500 in money
with which the said Chassigniol was to pur-
chase cotton for the benefit of afiant. The

ACTIVE PREPARATIoNs.-Note of pre-
paratiOn from many directions sound in our
ears, denoting that the summer season is on
Ms. Watering places over the lake and on
the bays are prepared to receive visitors,
and visitors are preparing to lay aside bnsl-
ness pursuits for recreation.
AT Mississippi City Messrs. Hurd & Nixon
are filing up that well known establish
ment, the Barnes Hotel, intending to treat
customers in real good Old-fashiOn style at
reasonable prices. Their plans are well
laid, and sojourners win find that we but
tell pleasant truth.
The hotel at Grand Isle, kept by Mr.
Margot, will soon be ready to accommodate
all who apply. One of the best features is
that Mr.. Heron, of st. Charles street fame,
will be the steward, and Captain Gus. Rich
ards will run his pretty steamboat from the
head Of Harvey's canal to the Isle, making
the trip in about seven or eight hours.
This item alone is guarantee.
Vaudeville and jacksonville, on the far
side of old Pontchartrain, are brushing off
the dust and making an effort to induce
Orleanians to give call. Unless prices
are dropped in that section we think Wis
itors will not make second call. --
Coming closer home, we have BOudro's,
at the lake end of the railroad, where cook
ing is reduced to a science. If you wish to
eat dinner fit for the gods, call in at BOu-
dro's restaurant.
Taking drive down the new shellrOad,
there is the new hotel of Messrs. Hoyt &
Bruning, on the lake shore, where a pleas
ant breeze is constantly tanning the scene.
Winning and dining can be INDUCED in to
any extent in that locality. Eastman, near
by Hoyt, has a house where comforts can
be purchased.
Other places are in operation, but we
have no definite knowledge of them.

Potato culture.

i have been reader of the Ohio
Farmer for many years. Recently I
noticed in the numbers q great many
farmers speaking about raising pota-
toes, of the various kind that we have
at the present. I have been farming on
my own responsibility since 1916, and
find quite difference between then
and now in regard to the fertility ofour
son in producing potatoes. At that
time light and alluviaI, at the present
heavy and compact. ,-,;st.,
The best soil that I have found for
potatoes is black walnut and sugar tree
land. The potato is of the best favor
produced on that kind Of soil. ,5s {, -, !.
Ts i have never raised potatoes extern
sively, but have taken some pains in
procuring the many different kinds, and
also have experimental somewhat in
raising the different kinds. The Ne
shamrock, in my opinion is the best
table potato, and best favored, but is
rather poor yielder.
Ny experience--would favor cutting
| ltheseed for the largest weight OF pota-
toes. I would, in cutting the seed
rather have three eyes in piece thar
six, or large potato planted whole. =
would prefer land second blowing aftel
sod. Plant in rows two and a half fee
apart, one piece in place and sever
inches apart. La3a, Mi6sin, Frankie,

Washington as 3 Farmer.

The farm of General Washington, ut
Mount Vernon, contained t. n thousand
acres of land lin one body-equaI to
about fifteen square miles. 1t was di-
vided into farms of convenient size, at
the distance of two, three and five miles
from the Mansion House. fife visited
these farms every day, in pleasant
weather, and was constantly engaged
in making experiments for the improve,
ment Of agriculture. Some idea of the
extent Of his farming operations may
be formed from the following facts: In
1857 he had five hundred and eighty
acres in grass; sowed six hundred BUSH
els of oats, seven hundred acres with
wheat, and as much more in, corn, bar
ley, potatoes, beans, peas, &C., and one
hundred and fifty acres with turnips.
HIS stock consisted of OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
forty houses, one hundred and twelve
cows, two hundred shd thirty<six work.
ing oxen, heifers and steers, and five
hundred sheep. He constantly employ
ed two hundred and fifty hands. and
kept twenty-four plows going dueing
the whole year, when the earth and the
state of the weather would permit. In
1880 he slaughtered one hundred and
fifty hogs for the use Of his own family
and provisions for his negroes, for
whose comfort he had great regard

Farm and Garden.

Early Potatoes.-In order to secure
potatoes for table use as early, in the
season as possible, it is necessary to use
artificial heat id forcing them at an
early date in spring, whenthe sell OUT
side is not in suitable state of warmth
to favor their growth. This may be
done in various ways, and the precise
method mast be determined by circum-
stances and convenienees. On the sub
ject of forcing potatoes the Ohio -Fa,7s-
er of q recent datesays: "Shallow boxes
may bs used of any convenient size, six
inches deep. Put in some three inches
OF rich loapy soil, and even it down
smoothly. Put in q layer Of potatoes,
either cut or whole; if cut, place cut
side down. Cover with more soil to-
the height of the box, leveling off the
top and wetting occasionally. Place in
some warm place near the kitchen stove
or other convenient place. If growth
is too rapid, keep dryer and cooler; il
too slow, keep wetter and warmer.
Harden of before planting out by ex-
posure gradually to sun and outside air.
When the ground is in suitable condi-
ton to transplant, take the boxes to
the place, take off the ends and sides
and separate the plants carefully be-
ing careful not to separate them from
the paront potato. Set sosthe upper
viii bejast q BIT above the surface. The
time for storing potatoes should be from
five to seven weeks before the time
generally customary to plant field crops
