THE result in New York at the re-
cent election does not settle that State
as Republican, by any means, but, on
the contrary, shows that with the
right candidate in the field the De
mocracy can carry il in the Presiden.
tial race by large majority. Count.
ing the Kelly vote as belonging to
the Democracy, as it would have been
cast for il if their leader had have been
allowed to dictate, and the vots of the
Greenbackers, who are deserters from
the Democratic party, the majority
against Cornell is 52,525. Potter, for
Lieut.. Governor, was only defeated by
l22 votes, while Seymour, Dem, for
State engineer, has plurality of a.
O24. But for the split in the party,
the Democratic rooster would have
been master of the dunghill and could
have crowed Justify and with the
greatest satisfaction.

Pits VS.. Root Houses.

Throughout all the newer portions Of
the west, root crops, from the lack of cell
lars, occasioned from the want of drainage
are often imperfectly wintered That
there should not be cellars is not SO much
from tie want of fall to some natural
outlet, as from the fact that in building
the house, the lack of stone, and the want
OF time to cut drain, and the necessity
OF hlllng the same prevents this impor-
tant adjunct, good cellar, being made
Thus, from year to year the family sup
plies OF vegetables and roots must be
kept either in pits or caves, otherwise
termed root houses In many cases the
land is such that easy drainage is not
teaslble, so that an underground cellar is
mot possible In thls case the sooner a
secure root house is built the more will
be saved, since it is not pleasant to get
the daily supplies from pits, that can
hardly, III this way, be kept from freez-
! ing.
In making Il root house where timber
is handy all that is necessary is to exca-
vate to such a depth more or less SO the
bottom may be dry. Wall this up with
! logs, to a height from the bottom SO a
person may easily stand upright, and OF
IN area Sufficient to hold the supply.
Fasten securely over all roofing Of logs
securely chinlled and pitching both ways
\ Cover all with earth top and sides, two
1 feet thick, fit in tight double doors, with
an air space between and there will be
no danger of freezing
The surplus stock Of potatoes etc, for
sale may be easily kept in pits either un-
der the ground or entirely above ground
as the case may be. If the aoll will adj
NIT, dig puts 3 feet wide and Of any re-
/ quislte length, though it is better not to
have more than 100 bushels Of roots in
one PIT. Cover the bottom and sides OF
the PIT with weather beaten slough hay
or clean long straw, fill with the OTIS to
/ the surface, rounding them up naturally,
cover with hay or straw, then inches OF
earth, then another layer of litter inches
| deep, then to s inches more Of earth
we'll packed snd smoothed down This
Will keep the roots from freezing in any
winter II the heap be made entirely on
the top of the ground. the piles should
be about feet wide, and as high as they
will lie nicely. Cover with four inches
Ct straw, and s inches of earth, then with
6 inches OF straw and again with inches
al earth
In the case of potatoes put IN green
from tho field ventilation should be Sc
cured SO the moisture of sweating may
pass off easily. Indeed the pits should
not be covered tight until this sweat has
been gone through. Hence, il is better
tEat potatoes, beets, rutabagas and other
roots be left only lightly covered Just SO
Is 70 ee secure from rain, until about the
time OF hard weather, when they may
have their final covering
So far as keeping is concerned there is
no doubt that any roots may be kept
much more uniformly sound III pits than
II ordinary cellars. Nevertheless pits
cost more IN the long run than cellars
when means Tor building them cheaply
are at hand

Newport fashion leaders are reviving

cannot be too varied or too large. In
