How Vegetables Are Wintered.
Prairie Farmer.


Only few vegetables be wintered out
doors in the North without protection. Parsnps
are among the exceptionable vegetables which
the winter does not destroy. and, except for use
while the ground is frozen, may be left In the
soil. Satisfy. or vegetable oysters, is of similar
nature, but beets turnips and carrots will not
stand excessive cold; to retain the fresh, crisp
flavor they should be taken up as late as possible
and placed in a cold cellar Or in pits. with earth
and straw enough over them TO prevent freezing.
The latter is the method most in vogue with
market gardeners. who usually know how best to
present their vegetables in the finest condition.
Artificial heat in any form spells the flavor of
vegetables generally The sweet potato is an
exception and will not rot in temperature below
30 degrees, while dryness does not injure it.
Cabbage may be pulled up roots and all, turned
upside down, and the heads packed together in
beds six feet in width and the ground between
the rows thrown over the heads. In extremity
frosty weather they cannot be reached, and enough
must be left in the cold root cellar for winter
use Onions require dry barn or loft. and should
not be packed more than eight or ten inches
Deep with foot of straw over them to keep out
frost. In the extreme North some fire protec-
ton may be necessary. For family use. string
can be kept hanging in any part of the cellar.
Onions will stand 200 of frost without injury. if
dry. Celery is best when taken from the open
ground but should be taken up and placed close
together, in beds, with earth and litter all,
to keep from freezing. Winter squashes
quire dry place, free from frost.

The State PIumhinc

The committee representing the Journeymen
Plumbers Association, of which H. T. Hudson
is chairman, called at the Office of the State
house Commissioners yesterday afternoon to
offer proof that the plumbing in the Capitol build

a willingness to hear whatever the committee
might have to say regarding the work, but in
order that there may be no misunderstanding

made, and the specifications of defects presented
in written statement. The committee agreed
to comply with this request, and will accordingly

the end of glaciers extending from the perpetual
ice of the unexplored interior To the coast and
into the sea. The water buoys up the sea end
of the glacier until it breaks by its own weight
with noise that sounds like loud thunder miles
away. The commotion of the water, as the ice
berg turns and over in the effort to attain
its balance, is felt to great distance along the
coast The natives regard it as the work of evil
spirits. and believe that to look upon the glacier
in its throes is death The Danish officers, when
observing the breaking off of the end of the great
glacier Puissortok through their telescopes. were
roughly ordered by their Eskimo escort usually
submissive enough, to follow their example and
turn their backs on the interesting scene. They
had happily completed their observations and
avoided an embarrassing conflict with their crew
by seeming compliance with the order.

A Pacific View of the Mugwump.

San francisco hroncle.
The fact is that the New York mugwumps
were a select coterie of dilettante politicians, or
ganized on the lam -hoer-than- thou platform
and absolutely without popular following. They
had control of three or four newspapers, and
fancied that because they could print slashng
articles they were a power in the land. They
were like the army of the Prince of Monaco-a
lot of generals and aides e-camp. without any
privates. Their knowledge of politics was so
elementary that they had not learned the lesson
from without Some of item doubtless were ac
tuated by honest motives ard were merely silly;
but the great bulk of the leaders-and they were
all leaders-were inspired by personal ambition
and cherished grudges. Their influence in New
York politics will henceforth be measured by the
above estimate of their strength. They cannot
begin to compare, in point of political weight.
with the stalwarts, who have some practical
knowledge of political business and who do
their work not In the newspapers, but at the
polls.

Reporting Plants.
Correspondence vick,s Monthly.


Some one has said that reporting is the
bane OF plant culture, and | am inclined to think
that there is good deal of truth in the state
ment. Flowers will not do well il changed too
often. use boxes for most of my flowers, in
preference to pots These are about a foot
square, and are filed with rich, soft earth from
the woods. The plants when well established are
left alone for a year. and sometimes longer.
Florists advise the of small potts. and this is
very well in the moist air of the greenhouse,
with the pots half buried in moss; but in the
dry, hot air of the ROOM exposed to evaporation
on every side, the plants are apt to drop their
leaves and look badly. Don't repot a plant
when you first take it from the greenhouse The
change from the air of the greenhouse to that of
the house Is already quite shock to il Have q
