Tho Way to Produce Large MELONS
and Squashes.
j. HERvEY ESHLEMAN,
Grasshopper Falls, Kansas

All such vegetables require rich
soil. A small shovclful of the fine and
rich manure beneath the stable floor,
if put in hill, will operate like magic.
Ifyou want to .'bcat all the neighbors,"
dig holes two feet square and one foot
deep in the garden. fill them up nine
inches with manure and stamp it down
well, and on this set n box one foot
square and nine inches high. Then fill
up six inches of the box with loamy
and on this plant the seed, ten to twelve
seeds in hill. Over the box put glass,
then bank up around the frame to the
top with manure. 1t is well to have
the south side of the box an inch or
two lowest, so that the rays of the sun
may strike the glass more directly. If
there is prospect of frost or cold
nights after the plants come up, cover
them under the glass with newspapers,
and also sheet over the glass. When
plants get an inch or SO high thin out
to three plants in hill; and when
they start to run nip off the ends Of
the vines to make them grow strong
and stocky. II is a good practice also,
after vine has run tour or five feet, to
turn the ends around towards the hills,
as runners are not inclined to grow
towards the roots.

From the Kansas Farmer. J
Sheep Husbandry.

A short article in the FARMER Of last
week, "The Importance of Sheep Hus-
bandry," called to mind much of past
experience in that very profitable and
pleasant branch of stock raising. With
many hopes that the time would come
that we could in this part Of the state
raise our own wool and have our own
cloth manufactured at home; knowing
the comforts Of having good roll of
homemade cloth on hand, and fine
lot Of stocking yarn in the house; also
Of having, at any time you wish, a
piece of good mutton, is no small con-
sideration. The mode of dressing you
copy from the New York World, is
good as far rs it goes, yet fear will
not always or at all times, insure Il
good job. A better process, to my
MUD, is to bleed, and, as soon as dead,
slit and skin the hind legs, put in your
gambrelstick, hang up, open four or
five inches. pour in clean, cold water,
until full; then take OF the pelt, and
there is no danger of any taste. 1t is
the insides that make the meat taste /;
the water conls all off and prevents it
from injury. by this mode farmer
can take his time and have good job
done and at home. Yours, &c,

Names Of Plants.

ANIMALS grow from the seeds, flower
and ripen and die out all the same
season.
Biennials grow from the seed the
first season, but reach their perfection
and die out all the second season.
Perenrials may flower the first or
subsequent seasons. Their popularity
is that they continue Towering for
many years in succession.
Tender and half-hardy plants will
bear the ordinary changes in summer
weather, but some Of them need hot
bed care in terminating their seed,
while others need protection during
the winter.
Hardy plant endure all the usual
varieties of wheather in temperate
climate.
Robust plants are those which -four
ish in spite Of neglect--taking care Of
themselves.

How to Raise Good Potatoes in
Kansas.

Mr.. G. X. Campbell, who resides four
miles south of Oswego. brought to our
Office as a specimen, the finest bushel
potatoes we have seen in Kansas. They
are not only large and fine looking,
but rs palatable as some varieties rails
ed at the North. Mr.. Campbell raised
400 bushels last year, which he is now
selling at the handsome round price of
$3.50 per bushel. lie has never sold a
bushel for less than dollar, even when
the market price was as low as fifty
cents, because of their extra quality.
Mr.. Campbell has given us his me-
thod of raising potatoes in Kansas. He
prepares his ground in the usual way,
but plows as deep as the team can
draw. lie burrows too feet apart;
cuts his potatoes and drills them ut
intervals of ten inches. One week af-
ter planting, he harrows the ground,
then mulchcs with straw or hay six
inches deep, and his tillage is done for
the season.
Mr.. Campbcll's theory is that the
hot sun spoi!s the potato, rendering it
soggy and unwholcsome. 1t is well
known that potatoes can be grown in
damp straw without earth. The po-
tato absorbs double the phosphorus
from the soil than wheat or other
grains require, consequently straw or
hay is natural ''fodder"
Mr.. Campbell has tried nearly every
variety of potato as seed, and he finds
they all prove SUCCESSIVE difference
whether planted early or late. He has
at present peach blows. Iowa flukes,
California snow ball, and the early
rose. His fnvorite for early planting
is the California snow ball while it is
not eatable till ripe. il natures much
earlier than the early rose.
His time for planting all classes Of
potatoes is from the first to the tenth
of May. BY his method, the crop is
not only sure, but there is no danger
of Second growth" SO often fatal to
most of our planted potatoes.
There is every advantage to be gain
cd by Mr.. Campbell's method; big yield,
no failure by season; more seed to the
acre, less labor and hundred per cent.
premium in market value. over pota-
toes "back whar we come from" The
same straw will do for three seasons.
Mr.. Campbell is another specimen Of
natures noblcmen, who requires no
special act Of the legislature to make
an honest living Osrego Independent.

Cleanliness and Ventilation of Gel
lars

Having lived in a large city, saw
very many bad effects from foul and
dirty cellars, and am sorry to say the
evil is worse in similar places, owing
10 sanitary measures not being so
strictly put in force as in many larger
cities. L had occasion to 60 into the
cellar Of dwelling occupied by one Of
our first families, and to my surprise
soften plank and vegetables, and other
garbage sufficient to cause me to i'll
crease my life policy if | had to live
and sleep over their noxieus gases,
which cannot be avoided, in particular
where no ventilation is afforded l
have no doubt there are many heads of
families in city of ten thousand per-
sons, who never 60 into their cellars
from one years end to the other, leav-
ing all such matters to their help. A
cellar should be in such order that a
person would not be afraid to sleep in
it. know person who took the cen-
sus of a city some years since, who
made it point to question families
where some of its members were sick
with fcvers, in relation to their cellars,
and many honestly thought they were
in good order, when no doubt the cause
of sickness arose from the foul gases
from the cellar, and in particular, | am
sorry to say, the larger portion of such
cases were among our farming popula-
lation. These statements believe eau
not be denied, and wish you may be
induced to wake up your readers to
have them spend few hours Tor cause
others to do it for them), to have clean
cellars as well as clean drawing-rooms.

Black-LeQ.

Ed. FARMER AS there is q good
deal being said about "Black-leg" in
cattle, will give you my experience.
About two years ago one Of my heifers
was taken with what supposed was
black-lcg. found her early one morn
Ing SO lame in one fore leg she could
not put it to the ground. l split her
leg above the knee to the bone with q
knife, then inserted into the wound a
lump of alum as large as hazlenut,
and bound it up with q cloth. BY 10
O'Clock she could bear her weight on
1t, and Mt night was nearly well.
An old foreigner "a Russian or Aus
trian, have forgotten which), said
that is the remedy used for the disease
In his country, aud tried it with the
success as above stated. | never had
any other cases to experiment with.
hope some Of those who have cattle
having black-leg will try the remedy
and give the result.
