preserving the roots or stripping them
off, it is better to preserve the roots,
provided they are not allowed to dry
and shrivel up by exposure to the air.
II the roots are kept intact, or if the
roots which are broken off a short dis

that they will speedily calious over and

the other hand, the tibrous roots are
allowed to shrivcl up, they had better
be removed altogether and let the stem
throw out new ones. In regard to
whether it is better to set out the
plants as soon as possible, OF to Let
them wilt in the cellar, much will de-
pend on the weather. 1t may well be
that a fresh plant, full of sap, by ex-
posture after transplanting, to oul hot
sun may shrivel up so rapidly that the
leaves may be reduced to a powder

Beauty in America,

Thanks to a more generous diet, q

a rich heritage to posterity. 1t is
astonishing to see the improvement in

the increase of wealth in this country.
table, but it is the ruin of many a
tne physique; and it is a matter for
jubilatlon that we have within our
borders a large and growing class who
can afford to be comfortable.
Of our there is danger of running
to the other extreme. The sleek and
well-fed business man is sometimes
suggestive of Il gouty old age, as is the
buxom and robustious beauty of the
waddling dowager; but on the whole
there is u most decided betterment.
And, although ii may not be in II
time, we may indulge a reasonable
hope tor q not far distant future when
the toiling race of New England
farmers wives, that sallow, skinny,
salaratus-fed sisterhood, shall be eX-
tinct, and in their place shall stand
a hale, hearty, and happy following,
who live on the fat of tho land, and
sell only that which they can not use
themselves, who have time and taste
to array themselves in something be-
sides a cheap cotton gown, and gladly
make concessions. TO fashion in the
matter of couture; who read something
besides the Bible, and, on the whole,
have almost us easy Il time as their
spouses' beasts of burden.
Take it all in all, we believe we
have good right to felicitate ourselves
IN the face of the world over our fair
women
The great and overwhelming ad-
vantage that la belle Americaine Dos
scsses over her foreign compeers is
that, although she revels, as a girl, in
what the French call la beaute du
diable, her charm does not fade with
the fleeing years of youth, and we
are spared the horror of seeing the
English transformation of delicate,
high-bred loneliness into the SEM
blance of a big, habby, and some what
Incorporate cook, or the frightful
spectacle afforded by our continental
sisters of the shrinking and changing
of a pretty. piquant face TO the weaz-
ened features of an elderly female
monkey.
OF course. innocent, unconscious
beauty is Il thing OF the past, that we
cannot hope to regain. The young
women of the present day knows her

contents of her pocketbook, and what
they will buy in the market a good
deal better; but what she has lost in in
genuousness She has probably gained

What Variety of Potatoes to Plant.

Ii you want potatoes as early as
possible, select the best early potato
you "a find. The genuine Early
Rose is good enough and early
enough. The Beauty of Hebron is
equally good, and there are Il dozen
other varieties any one of which, if
you happen to have it, will ripen
about as early, and give satisfaction,
If any one tells you he has a potato
that will ripen two weeks earlier than
the Rose or the Beauty of Hebron,
and yield as much again per acre, tell
Inn that 1t is a most valuable variety.
and that he had better plant all he
has got, and not sell a tuber to any
one else fer seed. For early potatoes,
plant in good, rich, mellow soil as
soon a. the frost is out of the ground.
You can hardly plant o early. I'm
TIL the plants appear, severe frost
will not hurt them. When the plants
are up, a frost will sometimes destroy
the crop, 81 at any rate seriously
retard or injure it. A piece of pa
per, or light covering of soil will saw
the plant. For WINTER potatoes. select
a variety that possesses at least four
points. viz: quality, vigorous growth
OF leaves to resist the potato bugs, a
good keeper, and productiycness.
When the potato bugs first appear
ed, everybody planted early varieties
OF potatoes, IN hopes of getting ahead
of the bugs. Now that we know how
to keep the bugs in check, we can
plant later kinds. AS a rule, the early
varieties cannot yield rs well us tho
later sorts, which have a longer sea-
son to grow in; or if they do in ex-
ceptlonal cases, it is probably owing to
unusual richness OF land. On ordinary
land, other things being equal. Il late
variety will yield better, and keep
better (the next spring., than the
early varieties. A late variety of
potato should be planted as early as
the soil can be got into good condi-
ton. If you do not wish to plant
early-or perhaps we had better say,
if you are behind with your work, and
cannot plant as early as you wish,
plant an earlier variety. The later
you plant, the earlier should be the
variety planted. The same principle,
or rule as to planting, applies to cab
cages, cauliiiowers, tomatoes. cucum-
bers, melons, turnips, corn, beans,
peas, etc. The earlier the variety,
that is, the quicker it natures, tho
later can it be sown or planted

A New Name for 1t.

In the spring time of 1864 the 'front.'
Ter division of the Seventh army corps,
Gen. John M. Thayer commanding,
was encamped at Fort smith, Ark.
Communication being almost entirely
cut off, supplies were low and the
army did considerable in the foraging
line. On one of these expeditions a
clerk at department headquarters,
Wiley Britton, who was a very fine
writer and apt scholar, went out with
a party of scouts south of the Poteau,
a stream that empties into the Arkan-
sas just above Fort Smith. They ran
upon a company of Texas rangers, and
in a skirmish with them he got shot
through the left wrist. Returning he
reached Fort Smith and was laid up
for some days before his wound heal
ed and he was fit for duty again. He
then got it into his head that fighting
was not particularly his fort, since his
wound, neither was writing, and he
desired to get back to his old home in
Missouri. He went to Gen. Thaycr
and asked for Il discharge, but the
general, thinking he was too valuable
Il man to let off for so slight q wound,
refused to let him 60, saying he did
not well see how he could dispense
with so valuable and apt a clerk. Wiley

Live stock III April.

The work horses now need an abund-
ance of Strengthening food. Keep the
harness clean and soft. 1t is easier to
prevent gals than to cure them, espe-
cially during this busy season when a
horses labor is most constant and val
liable. Many horses working upon
soft ground are best shod when they
are barefoot. Cows need careful
watching during this season. Whenn
cows time approaches, the feed should
be reduced. Look out for garget and
use the simple remedies often men,
toned in these columns. Ewes with
lambs need abundance of food, other
wise the lambs as well as the dams
will suffer. If ticks are troublesome
use a dip of tobacco water, or some

SWIne-Raising and Pork Making.

Good feeding qualities and early ma
turlty, are the necessary traits in the
nature OF a good pig. The most prof
liable pig runs i'll the orchard, eats
fallen fruit during the summer, and
reaches a good weight by early win
ter, when 1t should be killed. The
young pigs should come during March
and April, and be fed all they will eat
through the NJ During moder-
ate fall weather, most of the corn fed
at that time goes to the making of sal
able pork, while in cold weather,
much of the feed is used in keeping
up the animal heat. 1t is then plain
enough that a pound of pork can be
made more cheaply daring early fall
than in winter Pork producLs-as
lard, sausage, etc, as a general rule,
bring better prices in the fall than
they do later. There may sometimes
occur a necessity for late feeding,
when it may be done probably
enough. Last autumn, the corn in
many sections was badly injured by
the early frost, SO that where there
were large fields in corr there often
were large quantities of soft, unsala-
bic corn. Cattle were high in price.
and hogs low, because many had not
corn enough to fatten them. Those
who had enough poor corn to carry
their hogs through until after New
Years realized the high midwinter
prices for their pork, and made winter
feeding pay. Where winter feeding is
attempted. the hogs should be provid-
ed with good warm pens. Ordinary
pens may be made quite comfortable
for hogs by lining them on the inside
OF the %studding. so as to leave Il space
OF four inches between this lining and
The outside weather boarding. Fill
this space with .sawdust or wheat
straw and the wind cannot get through
it.-Aneaican A~gricultnrist for 4prl2.
