the Secretary no power except to count
the votes and issue certificates, but it

liminaries arranged, his next move was
to provide himself with an extra old
hat and coat and repair to the Mlssis-
sippi river near the steam fouing mill
at an early hour on Tuesday morning.
Going to where large fat stone lies
partly in the water, he carefully laid his
old coat and hat upon the stone and
fixed the memorandum book in a posi-
ton where it would be seen readily by
those who came thither, attracted by
the clothes. Here is what he wrote in
the memorandum book:
bow ever finds this Book Pies report
wher YOU found it i am tired of life and
drownded my self. PETER BEHENG
PETER BEHENG.
Everything being ready he proceeded
to take the fatal plunge and with one
frantic bound leaped upon the shore
and scrambled up the precipitous side
of Barn bluff, till he reached spot
where he could conceal himself. From
this hiding place he watched to see
what would come of it. Sure enough,
the coat was seen, crowd was attract
ed, sympathy for the lost one was ex-
pressed, and the river was dragged for
the carcass. Peter, meanwhile, watch
ed proceedings from his retreat, evident
~ highly aattered to think that dead
Pete was so much more thought of than
live Pete. Finally the search was
was abandoned and Peter started of on
his peregrinations. When last heard of,
up till the time of this writing, he was
heading for P]ainview, and those Red
Wing people who had wasted sympathy
upon him, were feeling very much as
though they would like to pitch him into
the river: and there are probably those
here who regret that he had not been
pitched in and downed months ago.

Value of a Garden.

The value Of the products of small
piece of ground, to the family of resi-
dent in the city is not, We believe gen.
orally appreciated, otherwise there
would be more attention to gardening;
for, besides the satisfaction of having
fresh vegetables at hand, there is very
considerable saving of money and labor
in producing for ones self what would
otherwise have to be bought for cash.
1t will not do, either, to estimate this
saving from what is purchased in the
vegetable line by those who have no
gardens, for these do no t use vegetables
as freely as they would if they had
them constantly at hand, and, conse-
quently, they consume larger amount
Of bread and meat and have, also,
heavier doctor bills to pay. For there
is no doubt that the varied diet which
plenty of all sorts of vegetables affords
contributes to preserve the health.
Again, the owner of good garden may
feed couple Of hogs, dozen or so
chickens and a few turkeys from its
products, which will be worth to him
about, say, $25 or $50 a year, for if
proper care is taken of them, the chick
ems will produce an ample supply Of
eggs for a small family. During the
present season we have cultivated a
piece of ground 9ox2l6 feet, and hay
ing to hire the blowing and some other
work done and pay for the seed, the
cash outlay on these accounts has
amounted to about SIS including every
thing. This garden has yielded US
during the summer all the radishes, let
tuce, greens, onions, peas, beans, pota-
toes, sweet corn, beets, cabbages, sum-
mer squAshes, cucumbers, canteloupes,
musk melons, water melons, tomatoes,
&C., that family Of five persons could
use, with plenty to give to the neigh
bors and enough besides to feed a
couple of pigs.
Besides these things, we have from it
for winter use and sale, 10 large heads
of cabbage, 60 Hubbard squashes, 40
California squashes, IS Yankee pump
kins, 25 bushels potatoes, 10 bushels
of beets, 4 bushels carrots, bushel
satisfy, 4: bushel of parsnips, 2@ bush
els onions, = bushels cucumber pickles,
7 bushels beans, = bushel peas, 8
bushels pop corn, 81 bushels sweet corn
and shall have from II to Is bushels of
turnips. And in addition to all these,
our folks have put up an ample supply of
preserved, picked and canned vegeta-
bles to last a small hotel during the
season. Putting these products at pres
ent market rates, ard we have from that
patch of ground a yield worth $6G.75,
without counting those already used
during the summer, worth say SIS, and
those preserved, canned, &C., say SIS
more. Add to these the value of meat
and eggs from the pig and chickens say
$40 more, and our garden seems to have
Melted US about $50 profit. The time
we have spent in labor upon it and in
taking care Of its products vii! not ex-
coed 100 hours, and it has generally
been early in the mornings and late in
the evenings: when we would not
probably have occupied ourself usefully
