A st. Paul Lady,s Thrilling Escape.

While Mrs. Russell Durand was walk

her skirts and dress were being eaten
away. She went Immediately into a

her dress was plucked from her in part,
and the smoldering fire was smothered.
The clothes below the waist were COM

time after the accident. Mr.. Ray has
been peculiarly unfortunate in the past.
He was twice wounded while in the Con-
federate service. For two years after the
war he was totally blind. By the upset
ting of boat he lost two interesting
little daughters during his blindness.
He was on the bank of the stream at the
time of the accident, and heard the cries
of the little ones for help, but being blind
could render them no assistance. Last
spring tree fell on him and hurt him
badly. Last August he fell from a chair,
with a child in his arms, broke his
shoulder-blade in two places and frac-
tured two ribs. The child was not in
jured. Truly Mr.. Ray is the champion
unfortunate man. We are glad to see
him out once more, and hope his misfor-
tunes are at an end.

The New England Farmer has detailed
account of a friendly contest entered into by
a number of members of the Farmers Club
of Franklin, Mass, for the purpose of ascer-
tanning the best method of growing potatoes.
Mr.. Monroe Morse, a successful cultiYator,
challenged the members of the club to com
pete with him for the largest and best crop of
potatoes grown upon a single square rod of
ground; size and smoothness, as well as
quantity TO be taken into account The COM
petitors were required to plant from the same
lot of seed, the Early Rose, which was pur-
chased for that purpose. The following is
the result as to the weight of the respective
crops S, +. Sargent, 3ei lbs A. c. Bal
lard, SO lbs VIM. Mann, 10 lbs VIM. Ad-
ans, IS lbs G.. S. Hancock, ~ lbs. Mon
roe Morse, % lbs James Hood. 1884 lbs.
Alfred Clark, 1872 lbs. S. w. Squire I59:
4. W. Cheever, ls3. The yield of Mr. Chez
yer was at the rate OF lSS bushels per acre.
The reports show as wide o difference in
the methods adopted as in the quantity and
quality of the crops presented;
TO promote smoothness, Mr.. Sargent laid
rye straw in the bottom of the drills, planting
the sets upon the top and then covering with
soil For the same purpose Mr.. Billiard used
forest leaves in the bottom of his drills. As
the season was dry at the time Of planting,
and for some time afterwards, this proved a
serious damage, although the quality of their
product was unexcelled. Messrs Hancock,
Clark, Adams aud Hood depended chiefly up
on stable manure, while Messrs. Morse, Bull
lard, Sargent, Squire, Mann and Cheever
used principally guano and other commercial
fertilizers. Mr.. Adams, we believe, applied
considerable potash in the form of spent I've,
and from this or other causes had a very in
ferior crop of scabby potatoes. Mr.. Squire
used Peruvian guano at the rate Of 500 pounds
per acre, and sulphate of potash POO pounds
per acre. Mr.. Hancock applied a two-horse
cart load of stable manure to the rod plough
ed in and nine pounds guano sprinkled in
the hills. Mr.. Cheeyer ploughed in light
coat of manure, and applied guano and sui
phate Of potash, at the rate of 900 pounds
Of the former and 400 of the latter per acre.
Mr.. Morse used 500 pounds Of guano and POO
pounds Of potash per acre. Mr., Clark ap-
piled stable manure freely and watered the
ground occasionally after the potatoes were
growing, with a solution of hog manure and
poultry droppings. Mr.. Hood used a spoon
full Of Bradley's superphosphate in the hill.
Messrs. Hancock, Hood and Adams had each
about fifty hills, while Mr.. Clark had

SAVE THE PnCEs.--A French HINT FOR
AMERICAN Housewives. Mr. Dslmonico,
talking about entrees. says that Americans
ought to copy the French method Of utilz-
ing small bits of raw meats and fowls, and of
re-cooking all kinds of cold joints aud pieces
of cooked meat which remain day by day
from every dinner in almost every family.
The success of such dishes depends mainly
on the sauce, which is best made from broth.
The following is his receipt for a fayorite
sauce "Take an ounce of ham or bacon.

in the sauce above described. Mr. Delmonico
describes croquettes as tie attractive French
substitute for American hash, and tells how to
make them Veal mutton, lamb, sweet

sides cold chicken and turkey, can be most
deliciously turned into croquettes. Chop the

FREEzNG AND THAwNG.-'It is not 50
much the jumping as the striking which
hurts So with tender plant, it is not sc
much the freezing as the thawing that injur-
es. When plant freezes, the water of the
sap separates from the thick material, often
running out into the spaces between the cells
If the thawing is slow, the water will return
into the cells and the plant will often sustain
little or no injury, while if the thawing is
rapid the return and readjustment is not
brought about and part or the whole plant
dies. II plant is frozen it should be 'thaw,
