ago, was attacked with inf1ammatory rheu-
naatism, which settled in her right shin.
producing fearful alterations, and death of
the entire bone. The amount of suffering
and misery which she was compelled to
bare was fearful to witness. Last Satur-
day afternoon quite a concourse OF people
assembled at the residence of the Squire,
to witness the severe operation of having
it removed, which was successfully done by
DIR. Davis. of Scio, who both administered
the chloroform and used the implements.
We all teel pleased with DIR. Davis, and
regard him as an accomplished surgeon.
He comes to this coast we'll recommended
from the East, and think he well deserves
it as surgeon.

How TO Keen Sweet Potatoes.

Dr. William II. Trigg of this
city. is one of the few practical
men of this section Of country.
He has discovered q. method by
which Sweet Potatoes can be kept
the year round and be just as good
as when taken from the ground.
The method is very simple, and is
rs follows: When the potatoes are
taken from the ground transfer
them to n box and place them be-
tween layers ot' wheat chat and
keep them in n warm, dry room.
We were shown the other day n

may, be OF some use in the end.
! Many set out fruit trees because
they are taught to believe that
great profits will result from the
sale OF the fruit in time. We do
not urge planting on this ground,
because money is really seldom
made by these spasmodic attempts,
but by those who understand fruit
culture thoroughly. and make it a
chief and leading business. Fruit
trees, by Tie average owner OF land,
should be planted for family rca-
sons; that Is 10 say, in order to
have a supply of frmt always at
hand on ones own place. II may
be that one will discover that profit
can-be made-of-the fruit rs well.
There will then be the chance 10
take advantage of these hcircum-
stances, and-to set out especially
for the purpose. eTg EE
Many persons ask what land is
best for certain fruit trees; what
manures are best to use? There
is no doubt bot that some soil is
/ better for trees, and some manures
more effective than others, bat this
is-rather ina professional sense,
where special excellence is desired,
and need not worry the average
man. There is no soil nor any
manure that is ready to ones hand
but is quite good enough for ordi,
nary persons.
The trouble with most people,
and the reason why trees SO often
fail is that the roots are allowed t.
get dry. Dry roots is n worse con.
dition of things than poor roots.
and then the earth should be ham.
mered in very tightly about the
roots, aud the trees severely prun
ed. Not one tree in ten thousand
need die, if these simple thing:
are really attended to.
The after allure of trees is very
simple. Keep out insects from thu
