his rights, and the courage Of resistance.
An article appeared in Harper's Monthly
in April, 1873, giving an account of this
man-his life, his adoption of the mission
to elavate and better the class in which
he was born and to which he considered
that he still belonged, and the beginning
Of his crusade against the tyrannies of
landed property. Since that article ap-
peared the movement of combination,
organization and resistance has gone ON
with a momentum which Arch himself did
not probably foresee The exposure of
the miserable condition of the peasants
throughout England, and even in many
parts of less feudal Scotland has constantly
added new, pregnant and often startling
facts to the evidence of which Arch was
the rudely eloquent witness and the
peasants have proved themselves capable
Of exercising a formidable power which
could scarcely have been anticipated a
year ago.
The subject is a much broader one,
moreover, than one Of mere agricultural
tradeS-unions, of strikes aud look-outs, of
the conflict Of a certain kind of capital and
its corresponding complement of labor. 1t
involves great questions and conditions
lying at the very basis of English society
and the English constitution. 1t compre-
hends the momentous subject of the tenure
Of land, the still substantial remains of
the old English feudalism. the power and
future Of the hereditary aristocracy, and
thus elements which are in the very centre
Of the structure of the monarchy.-Har-

Cabbage Sdldd.

Raw cabbage composes a part o. our
dinner every day, and l have various
methods Of preparing it, but think the
following the best: Shave hard white
cabbage into small strips; take the yolks
of three well-beaten eggs, cup and g. half
Of good cider vinegar, two teaspooniuls Of
white sugar, three tablespoOnfuls of thick
cream. one teaSpoonful Of mustard mixed
in a little boiling water salt and pepper
to suit taste. Mix all but the eggs to-
gether, and let it boil ; then stir in the
the eggs rapidly; turn the cabbage into
TIM mixture, and stir well. l always
make enough for two days at once, and it
keeps perfectly, and is an excellent relish
to all kinds Of meat.-Am. RuraL Home

Potatoes.

As our farmers are now harvesting their
potato crop, the following, regarding this
valuable root, may be Of interest to them !:
DO POTAroEs Run OUT?
Are potatoes a profitable crop to grow
and do they run out, and exhaust the
land ?" are the questions of farmer in
Starks, Ne. According to his own expe-
rience in the cultivation Of this indispen-
sable esculent, potato growing Is decidedly
profitable. He believes that they NAV BE-
grown in his locality for thirty cents
buShel, taking one year with another.
The great mistake that many farmers
make Is in planting too much land, and
using too little manure. They do not
treat the potato field as well as the corn
field. De believes that it will pay as well
10 manure the former as the latter. and
after the land is suitably enriched. II must
be well tended. 1t will not pay u raise
potatoes and weeds in the same field. Il
weeds must be grown on the farm at all
let them have lot by themselves, but
keep them out OF the potato field
A well MANFRED aud well cultivated
potato fed is jus, the place for see ling
TO grass for permanent aud profitable now
ing. 1t Is the heigh, Of folly TO seed down
poor run out land 10 grass, expecting 10
obtain paying crops. His advice TO his
brother farmers Is to plant fewer acres to
potatoes next year, but 10 manure those
acres better,-much better than Is com
monty dOne,-and then tend the crop
while growing, and see that no weeds are
allowed to interfere with the growth Of
the potatoes, or to exhaust the land of it,
fertility, then seed down to grass aud see
If 1t Is not better than by the old way Of
half manuring and half hoeing the land.
-Ne-o England Farmer.
A series Of experiments made By Prot.
Vile, in France, show that the diseases
that attack the potato are in part the
result Of deficiency in the supply OF
potash in the soil. For FIVE years in sue
eessiOn the Professor planted potatoes in
the same SOIL without any fertilizer; 20
other plots Of ground be added fertilizers
that did not contain potash. Iu all these
cases the fruit became diseased in the
month OF May, while on plots where pot
ash was supplied IN sufficient quantity,
the plants were healthy, and yielded an
excellent product.
A work written as late as l70S speaks
OF the potato thus slightingly; The root
Is very near the nature Of a Jerusalem
artichoke, although not so good and
wholesome, but it may prove good for
swine And another authority, in l77g,
refers 10 It as "of less note than horse.
radish scornzOnerf, beets and skirret."
A curiosity has come to light from the
potato bin Of Mr. Joseph Moultou in New
buryport. A rutabaga was discovered
with sprouts growing from it. which, Oh
examination proved 70 be a potato vine,
on whose root chung no less than City
small potatoes, which for their support
had used up the inside of the turnip.
