SWEET POTATOES.

Formerly no farmer thought of
harvesting his potatoes until quite
cool weather in the autumn, but now
it is the practice Of large numbers of
farmers to harvest this crop as soon
as possible after the potatoes have
stopped growing, believing to leave
them in the ground Injuries them
and it is the opinion of some that il
potatoes are dug as soon as they be-
gin to rot, it will stop the disease
from spreading; but experiments do
not confirm this opinion; it is true,
by digging the potatoes that are af-
fected by disease, the wet-rot may be
in a measure prevented but the dis
ease is i'll the potato, and it will show
itself III dry rot to an extent that
renders the potato unfit to eat As IL
rule, we have found when the rot has
struck field of potatoes it is best to
let them remain in the ground until
cool weather. then those that are un-
affected by disease will remain so
this saves the handling of rotten po-
tatoes, which to say the least, is very
unpleasant business.

A9ritnltural.
FLOWING IN MANURE.

As rule farmers have to provide
TOR poor soil, rather than for soil
overlooking with fertility, and for
this reason it may be well to confne
attention to the best manner of plow-
ing in the manure for Fall grain, be-
cause this manner of using it is OBJ
viously the right and best.
The purpose and use of manure is
to feed the plant; plants feed by
their roots, roots spread through the
soil in search of food, and the less eff
fort they have to make in this search
the better it is for the plant. The
manure then should be mixed with
the soil in the most intimate manner.
This is best done by scattering the
manure evenly over the soil, leaving
no Jumps or punches. The land is
then turned over with lap burrows,
laying the manure and the soil in
sloping layers from the surface down
ward as far as the pillow has penetra-
ted.
Thorough narrowing then mixes
the soil and the manure together and
the roots Of the young plants cannot
fail to find forage for it. Moreover,
this thorough mixture Of the soil and
the manure operates to produce rap
id decomposition of the latter and its
immediate reduction to plant food,
while at the same time the chemical
action of the decomposing manure
operates on the soil itself to make its
mineral particles soluble to a consid-
cradle extent. This reciprocative
action is more effective if lime be
used; for the lime is very active in
assisting in both these effects. Thus
it is seen how much better this prac-
tice of blowing in manure is than re-
serving it for later season, and then
scattering it on the surface-a meth
cd obviously better fitted for land
Astounding in fertility than for soil
which urgently needs immediate help
to feed the young growing crop.

OUTDOOR WORK FOR WOMEN.

We have no patience with the SUI
perticial observers who twaddlc about
the degrading effect of outdoor work
upon women. They must be pecu-
liar women who can be more degrad-
ed by working in Gods pure air,
amid the beautiful sights and sounds
Of nature, among the wonderful
plants of garden and field, than by
being cooped up in a hot kitchen,
handling pots and kettles, doing
chamber work and mendng old
clothes No honest work is degrad-
ing TO any man or woman unless it
Injuries the moral nature or weakens
the body. We owe to our husbands
and wives and children and our Max
er the duty of performing the work
before us to the best of our ability.
We also owe to them the duty of do
ing the work we are best fitted for,
and to take good care OF our bodies
in order that we may do our work
we'll.
No industrial pursuit is better fit
ted for women, and they to it, than
horticulture, the culture of fruits,
flowers and vegetables, for pleasure
or profit. Already millions ofwomen
cultivate and love as pets the few
towering plants and vines in their
windows; thousands know the pleas
ure Of flower beds and hundreds are
practicing the art of gardening on a
larger scale as a profession. May
their efforts succeed, and may thou
sands more join their number. Thus
will horticulture be honored, their
own lives be made more beautiful
and useful and mankind be blessed
by the better health and higher aims
Of the mothers of Christendom.
