The Ontario Potato.

From the Minneapolis Tribune.
The Ontario Potato.
This potato originated with H. H.
Doolittle, the originator of the Doo-
little raspberry, He says: ''The
smo oothness or shallowness Of eyes is
the first striking peculiarity. Its
shape is fiat and oblong. Never
grows together or knots up or de-
forms. It's skin and flesh are white,
it cooks dry but avoids the fault of
shelling all off and falling to pieces
when boiled, and its quality such
that the usual expression is, "The
best ever ate.'' In size it reaches
to IA pounds, but the largest are
never deformed. AS to earliness one
testifies to planting "l7th day of May
and commenced eating dry, ripe po.
tatoes from them the Sd of July and
4 good yield' One calls them two
weeks and another ten days earlier
than the Rose. Ones enthusiasm
may lead him to mistake the effects
of blight or some local cause in ripen-
ing a hill OF rod square several days
in advance. But my own testimony
is that having planted this seeding
for four years alongside of the Early
Rose and Extra Early Vermont the
whole plat of the Ontario shows 4
general earlier deadening of the tops,
80 as to he noticed from distance.
With this earliness it combines the
best keeping qualities for summer
use. Many think that this heaviness
and solidity as An old potato is suf.
fcient to command it's universal
growth.
| Yield-From a tiny seed five years
ago it has grown yearly in size and
yield till this year on one-forth of an
acre of ordinary soil, without manure
this year or last or fertilizers of any
kind, there were ninty-five bushels,
taking about thirteen hills to make a
bushel-showing \ native vigor and
capacity Of yield unsurpassed in later
years."

Bronze Turkeys.

The bronze is the king of turkeys
In short, they arc noted for thei,
great size, and rich changable colors
They are always beautiful. Are
pretty good foragers, and it costs lit
tie to raise them, where grasshoppers
are plenty. They are No. l layers,
hardy and easy to raise. They make
/. very rapid growth, and if the win
ter is not too hard. or does not set ir
too esrly, young gobblers will weigh
twenty-five pounds by Christmas, OF
that is about six months old, hens
thirteen or fourteen pounds. Turk
eys, unlike chickens, grow all winter
and make weight for the feed they
consume, The Bronze do not fully
get their growth till they are about
three years old. At maturity hens
weigh from fifteen to twenty pounds,
and gobblers from thirty to forty
pounds each.
In most sections, turkeys are very
profitable, and double the weight can
be made from about the same feed
and trouble that is given to rearing
the small common turkeys. It pays
to keep the best ''blooded" stock, if
we get much larger returns for our
outlay. We give it rs fact, that
many persons do not understand, that
turkeys shrink from three to nine
pounds each in shipping, as being
nervous they eat little, and the journ.
ey worries them. They soon recover,
however. = Customers are apt to
weigh them on receipt. and many a
cursing has the seller got for sending
lighter weights than he. represented.
when it was owing to the shrinkage
Of the birds. They should not be
weighed under three or four weeks of
good keeping, after their arrival on 4
new place. Shrinking happens the
same with other fowls, too.

The farce has ended, and the mas
jority Of the American people will
rejoice at the verdict returned by the
jury at $3.50 yesterday afternoon.
Emotions of joy were manifested by
the majority in the court room, and
the very small minority seemed
about to burst into tears, as the
words, "Guilty, as Indicted" fell
from the lips of the aged foreman ol
the jury. Scoville will apply for a
new trial and arrest of Judgment, but
the fiat has gone forth. and turthe,
delay will only prolong for brie
period the miserable existence of til,
doomed wretch.

BOSTON Traveller: A little but lovely le
vice in Maine, to wit, Sunset Cox, Senator
Pendleton, and Senator Voorhees,, and the
late Governor Curtin. 1t is to be hoped
that due regard will be had for the suscepti
bilities of Senator Voorhees, on the grand
question of the knife and the fork. In til,
campaign of 1880, s'The Tall Pine of the
Sangammon," otherwise Senator Voorhees,
complained bitterly that he had been de
tailed for duty in company with man who
was SO destitute of the accomplishments of
civilized social life as to eat with his knife,
and bearing himself toward the fork as if he
had known no more Of it and its uses than
was known to Queen Elizabeth or To the
Princess Pocahontas. The disgust with
which the courtly Hoosier saw his colleague
shovel in his food can be understood only
by the disciples of the silver-fork-with-
prongs school. AS the defeat of General
Hancock was attributed to this disregard of
the fork element in society, the Maine Dem
ocrats should be careful to keep out of Mr..
Voorhees's company all men of their politi-
cal faith who do not give the fork prefer
ence over the fingers in the etiquette of the
table. Perhaps it would be wiser to refer
the whole matter to special committee,
that should breakfast, lunch, and dine and
even sup, with the sensitive Sangammon
Senator, and shield him against the savages
of the knife.

lish. but he speaks the two former better than
the latter His entire conversation was about
money, showing he had keen eye for the al
mighty dollar. He has been in the country six
wears, and receives, when on exhibition, 800 a
week and his expenses. Then he sells his pho
tographs and life of himself from which he
makes good percentage. In the six years he
has managed to save a good deal more than his
salary, and he has invested his money judici-
ously The only investment he has that does
not pay is diamonds. He is passionately fond
of this precious stone. and has some fine speci-
mems in his safe. He seems to have a savage's
fondness for ornament, for he was loaded down
with iewelry. Around his neck he wore long,
massive gold chain, fastened at the throat with
a jewelled slide. There was evidently a watch
on the end of the chain in his pocket Then
he wore another heavy gold chain across his
blue flannel shirt, on which several twenty
dollar gold pieces were hung On his wrists
were gold bracelets of curious workmanship,
and he wore u plain gold rings on his hands,
two on each third and little finger, and two on
each thumb His hands are very we'll shaped,
and the dark tattooing set off the bright gold
of the rings. A silken scarf of many colors was
tied around his waist. Altogether, he looked
like pirate
