Lima beans is crop that delights

are used to support them, as rule, but

procured and cleared away. The tops
of the vines should be pinched off when
they reach the height of five feet. which
will cause denser foliage and
heavier yield, especially if the pinching

clear and free from weeds.-Iroy Times.
Every garden should have a small

does cause the loss, by volatilization, of

POTATOES,

The Kind OF Management Required to
Grow Good Specimens and Large
Crop.
Many people think that potatoes will
grow, no matter how poor the seed is
the refuse of what is left of eating
while Others plant mixed varieties, all
sorts planted together, and then
complain of poor potatoes. ] have
been an observer of the management in
raising potatoes of different kinds for
fifty years; the way 1 have had the
best crops is to plow up a piece of
greensward of good depth, from one to
fifteen acres, as the individual may
want, then harrow lengthwise until it is
well mellowed up, then diagonally, so
as to have it well mellowed; then with
a light shovel-plow mark out three feet
apart and not cross it, and be sure to
have your rows east and west (corn
rows should be north and south), so the
sun will not burn or heat the hills in
hot weather.
My plan is to sort the potatoes, tax
ing out the two biggest sizes to use,
then take the three next sizes, and
leave the two least and all the ill-shapen
ones of all sizes. AS like produces
like of ill ones, that is why potatoes
degenerate. put plaster or gypsum
about one tablespoonful in the hill,
when l drop my potatoes. plant
them one way and cover with my hoe;
plant rows three feet apart, the hills
two feet apart.
My mode is to put one potato or
a half in the hill with the plaster, of
whatever kind of potatoes l plant; the
plaster helps to start the potatoes and
keep them from rotting, which is an
object of late years. One potato or
one piece is enough for a hill. BY
planting on sward land the potatoes
are dry and mealy, while on land that
has been plowed several times, the
potatoes will be soggy.
The potato crop is becoming more
profitable, and it is time that farmers
should look out for good seed and
plant good and not poor kinds nor poor
potatoes. 1t takes ten or twelve bush
els of seed potatoes to plant an acre,
as / plant, and generally from three
hundred to four hundred bushels
product.
l cultivate potatoes when they are
up about two inches high. then use
shovel plow so as to have them good to
hoe. hoe them when about foot
high, and hill them not too nigh. Some
farmers plow deep furrow, drop in
their potatoes and plow in their seed,
plow up to the shill and thus plow out
their potatoes. This is raising potatoes
with vengence; potatoes bruised, one
hundred bushels per acre, aud small,
poor ones, at that. Potatoes are one
of our staples for family support, and
should be raised with care to get good
ones,-Farnler and Tribune.

THE DEADLY SLOP-DRAIN.

A Mysterious DispensatIon of Providence
Satisfactorily Lco.ted.
From country house notable for
general neatness hired girl was taken
i'll of typhoid. Then hired man left
and had run of "slow fever; after
ward little girl "came down. with
the same disease. Soon the mother
was dangerously sick, and finally sag
gravated erysipelas broke out in the
lace OF the kitchen servant" Here was
series of zymotic attacks. Whyp A
Name Farmer correspondent answers,
with a statement that eliminates the
mystery of the dispensation:
"The only thing in this household
which seemed to be at fault was the DIS
posal of the kitchen slops. They were
carried from the sink outside the house
through leaden pipe, and this dis
charged into the end Of a bored aaue-
duct log, buried in the earth and ex-
tending about rod from the house.
This short log-drain would soon be OBJ
structed, and then the end next the
house would discharge its dangerous
contents into the loose stones which
were filled in on that side of the kitch-
en-, and thence under the house and
into the cellar; and the same leaden
pipe which carried the water downward
brought the slckening gases upward" |:
One '.better way" safe. II not so
convenient" is by use of slop-pails
kept clean and the contents distributed
over the surface soil at various points
some distance from the house. An en-
largement OF this simple and satisfacto-
ry system is favorably mentioned by
the loaw Board OF Health:
"A neighbor has kerosene barrel
hung on pair of old buggy wheels, so

Painful Impressions.

A remarkable characteristic Of the
average newspaper reader of the day is
the eagerness and avidity one seeks for
painful impressions caused by perusing
accounts Of human suffering. Is there
railroad accident, steamboat disas-
ter, hanging, lynching, marder or
anything of this nature vividly written
up and glowingly pictured in reporto-
rial descriptive style, II al once becomes
the most interesting item Of the paper.
Managers of our large and most success
full metropolitan dailies pander to this
corrupt and morbid taste of their pa
irons. A reporter will be dispatched a
hundred miles to gather the latest and
most minute details of some licentious
rape or revolving murder, while the
deeds of the good and the yirtuous are
never known outside narrow limit.
Full many n rose is born to blush unseen
AND waste Its fragance on the desert
air."
All this Is evidence of mental disease,
truth that can not be contradicted.

mind 10th evil and recital of evil ways;
with them 1t Is "peaee ON earth and
good will toward men," "Heaven on
EARTH Is printed on their banner, while
"ali their ways are ways of pleasant
ness and all their paths are peace" Not
all are conscious of their mental Inn

from urinary, digestive and nervous dis
orders, that they consider their feelings
