Ihp Soil for Potatoes

A number Of years ago | had Il field OF
ten acres OF rich black soil in admirable
order. | planted half Of it in Peach.
blows, the balance in N%cshannocks. Al
fair time sent a hired mar to dig a
bushel for show of each variety. lie
came back with very nice specimens OF
both kinds. On the %leachbIows was
awarded the premium. OF course |
congratulated myself that | had n most
excellent crop on the whole field, AS the
soil and culture were the anne. But
was doomed to disappointment. On dig
ging, | found the Neshannocks turned
ont wcll-20O bushels per acre OF very
nice potatoes. When we came to the
%rcachblows, they were very small, the
size of quails' eggs, and few in n hill.
asked my man, "Where did you get
those potato"s for the fair? Did you 60
some place else and steal thcm?'
lie answered, why, no; | will show
you right where | dug Them
went with him and found where a
large tree had turned up by the roots
and thrown out the yellow clay from the
snosoil, and on this clay the PeachhIows
were large and fine, while on the black,
light, rich soil they were a failure.
Tho S,ioto bottom is admirably suited,
when the climate is right, to the growth
Of the varieties named above, while the
Peachblow will not do any good there,
even in the most favorable seasons. 1t
can not he all in the climate, for in the
year 1869 | had seventeen acres of clay
land planted in Peachblows. My books
show that | paid for digging these even,
teen acres of potatoes, Mt five cents per
bushcl, SiO5. This would make 500
bushels, or i76 bushels per acre, while in
the bottom | had Il small patch which
were scarcely worth digging.
All this shows that to be successful we
must not only know our soil in the differ
ent fields, bu! also the variety Of potatoes
best suited to each. As to new varieties,
the best policy is to try them, but touch
them lightly until ven test them in your
soil and climate. Where you find one
that is All improvement, you will find one
hundred varieties Of these new kinds of
no practical advantage. Such at least,
has been my expcrience.-G. s.. l., in

what Stanley Has Found In Africa.

A correspondent grnycly asks us what
Stanley has found an equatorial Africa. -
1t is possible that there may be Othersin
the same state Of d~eplorabIe ignorance,
and we will therefore britily set forth
the results OF Mr.. Stanley'4 three years
Of exploration for we do not suppose
that even our inquiring friend ivrgots
that before that the young man had
found DR.. Livingston in that region.
When Stanley started, he described the
work before him IN that Of finishing the
labors OF others for many travellers had
preceded him into ~thatCOuntry of danger
and fascination, and had seen parts OF
lakes and rivers, without settling any
thing about their relations to each other
on their Importance to the world. The
sources Of the Nile, the problem of ages,
were yet unbound. No one knew any
thing about the Congo twenty-five miles
from the Atlantic coast. Now Stanley
has left very little undone OF what he
undertook to do, He discovered, in the
first place, the iarthest southern waters
that contribute to the Nile; the Shimce.
yu river, pouring into the Victoria Nj
yanzl from the southeast. He for the
first time thoroughly circumnayiralcd
the great Victoria lake, and followed up
it's great tributary, the kagera, ON the
southwest, through its scores Of lakes.
lie has settled the puzzle of the Tangan-
yika, which had been cOnsid, red by liv-
Ing.iOne II reservoir OF the Nile, and to
which Lieutenant Cameron had given
an outlet through the Imkuga into the
Lualabl both these notions he proved
WRONG, and made it certain that the lake
has no outlet, but ia an inland lake Of
comparatively recent ( rmation, which il
rising steadily and will one day make
Gameron's belief true. And finally, he
has proved the LuaIaba, which Living
some felt sure was the Nile, to be instead
the Congo, by following it from the cen
tr OF the continent to the Atlantic; Il
wonderful journey Of over two thousand
miles and through seven or eight degrees
OF latitude, crossing and rcCrosSing the
equator, in deadly Ierils OF disease, pri-
walton, tracklcss forests, unknown waters
and fierce mvages, which no other cx-
plorer had dared to face, aud which
Cameron had shortly before turned away
from. These are the principal geosrap...

cotton MnnufnCturing.

II must be admitted that the south
has many natural advantages for cotton
manufacturing which are not possessed
by the north. The mills of Georgia and
the other southern states have an unfail
inc supply Of water. The streams that
run their Splndlcs are never frozen and up
to this time they have ever tremendously
affected by the drought of summer. The
climate is particularly adapted TOR the
first manipulation Of the delicate raw
material. I'm the north the air is fire.
q%uentIy 80 dry That steam has to be in
reduced into tho weaving~rO0ms TO keep
threads moist and prevent them from
breaking. such an cxpedient ~ never
necessary in the south even in the sum
mer the air il always sufficiently humid
to allow the spinning and weaving process
TO 90 on without interruption. Further
than this the southern mills require less
pas and less fuel than their northern
and the original cost Of their con
struction is invariably much smaller.
Their owners derive still greater advan-
tages, however, from the fact that they
can buy the raw material at a reduced
price, and can have it delivered at their
door from the fields without any charge
Tor freight, brokerage or factors commits

Georgia, who ~ one Of the best known
and most reliable manufacturers in the
south, estimates that on this one item
