Banking Potatoes.

Editor of the Rural Carolta,an:
lido not profess to be Practical Farmer"
but have plan for saving potatoes, which,
having proved successful with me, Twill give
M. L. Baldwin or other readers the benefit of
it.. First of all, procure good supply of
clean, dry, long-leaf, pine straw, and one
bushel of clean, dry sand, to every eight bush
els Of potatoes you wish to bank. This
should be done some time previous to digging,
or the straw and sand may be wetwhen need
ed. Have these kept ready for use in q dry
place. ALLOW the potatoes to remain undug
for. several DAYS or a'weeks after the vines
are killed by frost, in order that they may be-
come less sappy, and may grow as long as
possible. (They are said to grow faster after
the vines are killed than before.) Be sure,
however, not to allow them to freeze in the
gronnd. Watch the weather, during thisin-
terval, and if there are indications OF bad
weather, dig Immediately. Dig as quickly
as possible, and endeavor to do SO when the
ground is not too wet. Have the potatoes
carefully gathered up into baskets, asserting
the small and cut, from the large. ones, and
have them put away in dry house, placing
dry straw under and over them, and let them
remain two or three days, to allow them to air.
The cut and small potatoes may be used first,
but must be kept separate and not banked
with the others Select dry spot for your
banks. Arrange, them in straight rows, as
it will be more convenient to shelter them.
Allow eight or ten feet square for each bank
Level the earth for the base Of each bank,
and raise it q few inches with the earth, if
you are not sure that the spot is quite dry.
Have two bushels of potatoes, placed in mi d
die of each bank. upon these sprinkle one peck
of the, dry sand, then pour upon each pile
two bushels potatoes and one Ecck ofsand, and
continue this until you have from twenty
five to forty bushels of potatoes to each bank,
keeping them piled up as high as possible.
Then cover each bank with enough dry
straw to be Of two inches thickness when
settled (say four or five inches ofloosc straw
Dig circular ditch around each bank about
fifteen inches from the prtatoes-about one
foot deep and two feet wide, placing the
earth upon the bank until it is two or three
inches thick-leaving the top open for yenti-
lation. The aperture should be about three
inches wide Have the banks we'll sheltered
and the bitches opened to convey the water
away.
By this plan T have kept my potatoes
sound and sweet, seldom finding as many as
peck of rotten ones t, each bank, but it
does not keep "cuffy" from sampling them
occasionally Will some one be kind enough
to give us remedy for this?

TYING UP WooL-The best buyers of
wool do not like wool to be got up in square
packages, and tied around twice or three
times each way with strong twine. They
prefer the feeces to be rolled up neatly and
left as loose as possible, 80 that each fleece
will be springy, and light and elastic to the
hand, not solid, hard, square, compact masses,
inI~hich thewool is pressed together till the
fleece feels like a brick Then one twine
tied across to keep the rolled up fleece in its
place, and two twincs the other way. Wool
brought into market in that shape, sells bet
in the eastern market, and buyers can afford
to give more for it per pound, because they
will get a cent pound more for it, The
table and box, arrangements, they contend,
may be convenient for the farmer, and are
probably handy to use, but they putt wool
in such packages that the dealers regard
them with suspicion, and invariably, from
their solidity and hardness, gather the idea
that the wool is not we'll washed, that it is
oily, or that it is moist. Besides, the
examination oofi is rendered so laborious
that this work is costly. Thesbox and table
arrangements make such neat, square
bundles of the feeees, that it is becoming
the general practice, butt is not one that is
preferred by the purchasers, and it does not
enhance prices. { AT this season it is proper
to direct attention to the subject.

Mrs. Laura D. Fair, tho California MUIR
deress, has been acquitted aud released She
owes her aeqpittalto her beauty. If she
had been a hard, working washerwomaa, with.
irregular features and a tanned complexion,
she would probably have been strung up
without Judge or jury. 1t is to be hoped
that Mrs. Fair will now fall in love with some
one of the Jury who acquitted her. If the
juryman selected by her thinks more of his
wife than he does of Mrs. Fair, it will then
be proper, according't to his Interpretation
of California law, for Mrs. Fair to blow
his brains out. ~ We hope she will doit.
