Wintering Seed Potatoea

Potatoes Tor the following seasons

glug time or during the leisure months
Of early winter. This is especially i'm
portant when they are stored in deep
bins, or piled in large quantities. Under
such conditions there is always danger
Of heating, which is sure to impair the
terminating powers Of the tubers. Ii
the grower pays no attention to the po-
tatoes he intends to plant until the sea-
son for planting is at hand, and then
draws from the common heap for such
quantities us he may need, he finds them
usually badly spruuted and shrivo He'd,
and no more fit for planting than heated
seed corn Wea', spindling and stunt
ed vines, with frequent missing hills,are
the usual results Of planting seed pota-
toes wintered in this manner. If practi-
cable, the seed stock should Le selected
at digging time, and, where sufficient
cellar room is available, should be stored
in shallow bins in a cool location. Ii
barrels or boxes have to be used for
storage, it is well to ventilate them at
the tops and Sides and place them on
blocks up from the floor, so as to allow
the air to circulate freely through them.

HINTS FOR EVERYBODY.

Here are some things which are
worth remembering: 1t is said that
salt should be eaten with nuts to aid
digestion. That milk which stands to
long makes bitter butter. That rusty
fiat-irons should be rubbed over with
beeswax and lard. That tough beef
is made tender by lying few minutes
in vinegar water. That cup of
strong coffee will remove the odor of
onions from the breath.
That we'll ventilated bedroom will
prevent morning headaches. That
one in a faint should be laid on the
fat of his back and let him alone.
That consumptive night sweats may
be arrested by sponging the body
nightly in salt water. That to beat
eggs quickly add a pinch of salt; That
the hair may be kept from falling
out after illness by frequent appli-
cation to the scalp of sage tea. That
white spots upon vanished furniture
will disappear if you hold a hot plate
over them.
