Digging Potatoes.
Practical Farmer.

Practical Farmer.
Potatoes should be dug as soon as the
tops have fairly ripened and died down.
They make but little growth after that,
and what they do make is at the expense
of their eating quality. If the cellar IS
dark and cool they may be stored for
winter use, and will keep in much better
condition there than remaining under
ground. If the cellar is unfit to keep
them in during the fall months they may
be Kept in a pit il the ground, TAX
ing care that the pit is so located as to be
cool, and that no water can enter it either
from above or below. If the potatoes are
not put in barrels before pitting the sides
of the pit should be lined with straw, and
in either case it should be ventilated by a
pipe or an air passage, in which is
bundle of straw. It is needless to say
that the potatoes should be dry and free
from any adhering soil before putting in
the pit, and that any which have signs Of
decay should be carefully kept out.
Where convenient to market it may be
less laborious and quite as profitable to
market them as soon as dry. There IS
shrinkage in weight after few months
storing, as we'll as a risk of loss from de-
cav, which, with the labor Of handling,
will usually counterbalanoe the gain of
higher prices later in the season. This is
applicable to other crops besides the po-
tato, and, as general rule, the best time
for the farmer to take his goods to mar
ket is as soon as they are in marketable
condition. To store them for higher
prices makes him but q Spectator upon
small scale, and, like all small specula
tors and gamblers, he is at a disadvantage
when compared with those who under
stand the game better than he, and who
have all the advantage of labor and capt.
tai. That farmer sometimes gains by
holding crop is as true as that inexperi-
enced persons sometimes hold a winning
hand at cards or draw prize in lottery;
but where one wins, hundreds lose.

Sweet Summer.

The spring has fed with its shine and shower,
The summer reigns in the radiant hour,
Nhen noon burns sweetness from every flow
er
That turns its face to the sun.
she relgns in the waning blue of the skies,
When the level light OF late evening lies
On pastures golden with memories
OF dear dreams, over and done.
0 summer, sweet summer, when lover stray
through the fields sOft-wreathed in the new
mown hay.
And down through the leafly lane:
When the young dream dreams, and the old
folks stand
And look out over the quiet land.
And sigh mot sadly, if hand clasps hand
That youth comes never againi
For the summer dies-as our youth must die
And vain are the prayer and the passionate
cry,
The roses and beautiful DAYS go by
With all their wonder and worth:
And SHOWS are over the lily head,
And sheet of ice on the roses bed,
And love may die, now the leaves are dead
AND the winter is lord Of the earth.
Yet listen. sad heart, to the glad refrain
Of the brown winged birds in the brown
hedged Lame;
Summer has gone. but she comes againi
Sweet summer never can die.
And youth, sweet youth, is immortal too,
And viii bloom again as the roses do,
And love is eternal-if hearts be true
Though youth and the rose go by.

large focks more successfully than do
those OF larger size.
The objections to the large mutton
breeds of sheep are that they require too
much attention and must have good pas
turage; that they can not well exist to-
gether in large numbers, and must be
protected from the heat and cold. It is
no doubt true that the merino is hardy,
and requires less care than the large
breeds, but the question TO be considered
is whether it Will not pay to give the
large mutton breeds that attention which
many are not willing to bestow. We have
the difference in methods as practiced in
England and America. The Englishman
does not attemp to produce WOO, esti-
mating the wool product as something
that simply attends the production of
mutton as a secondary adjunct, and aims
TO secure as large q carcass as possible
So great has been the progress attained
by the English in the Improvement OF the
mutton breeds that is is not uncommon
to secure lambs weighing 100 pounds
when they are only 3 months old. while
$50 pounds is often reached by 6-months
old lambs. These weights are greater
than those Of our mature native sheep,
and show that the farmer, with the use of
the improved breeds of mutton sheep,
can derive large profit without looking
to the receipts from wool at all.
IF the English farmer can pay heavy
rents and depend upon his sheep as the
principal source OF revenue, there Is
nothing to prevent the American farmer
from doing the same. But the English
grow special crops for sheep, shelter
them, hurdle them, keep them growing
from birth, and only breed from choice
sires. A 3-year-old ram has been made
to weigh 425 pounds Give weight, and
ewes often attain over 500 pounds each.
It is, however, due to the careful feeding
as we'll as the breeding that success is
met with, for no English farmer would
turn out flock of sheep to find their
food or tram pie desirable heritage. It has
been shown that sheep can be confined
with hurdles and made profitable, and
that the system Of giving them large
ranges will not answer for the mutton
breeds, yet the fact that the English, with
an experience OF centuries, have discard
ed wool and given their whole attention
to mutton, is a lesson to US that should
not be overlooked or disregarded, es-
pecially as there is great demand for
choice mutton which is seldom supplied.

The new chief justice is the smallest
man of the Supreme Court of the United
States, weighing 115 pounds, and being
feet inches in height. Associate JUS
tioe Gray is the largest, measuring 6 feet
inches in height, and pulling the scales
at almost 800 pounds. Justices Bradley
and Blatchford are about an inch higher
than the chief justice and weighs twenty
pounds more. Associate Justice Harlan
is next to Gray in height, feet 2 inches
being his distance from the ground, and
$50 pounds his weight. The other jus
tees are an even height, being between 5
feet and and 10 inches.

RED NOSES.
Other Causes than Drinking that Lead to
the Rubefaction of Human Probosces.

A very common error, says the
american AnaLyst, is the belief that
red nose or chin and pimples or ''blos-
SONS" about that part of the face are
the result of hard drinking and are
always indicative of that vice. With
many persons this is the case. The ac-
CELEBRATION of the movement of the
heart, the rapid heating of the body,
and the slow weakening of the blood,
three of the chief results of the use of
alcohol upon the system, too often
find expression in the unsightly symp-
tons mentioned, as well as others more
serious.
But these symptoms often arise from
other and very different causes. In
some instances exposure to the sun
light will produce results hardly dis
tinguishable from those of alcoholic
indulgence, and more especially with
those with impure blood or whose
habits have not been marked by the
regularity demanded by health. Tight
lacing or even mere wearing of stays,
no matter how loosely these may fit or
how soft and flexible the material from
which they are made, frequently exer
else the same effect in every regard.
Many temperate woman and abstin-
ent maid has acquired the reputation
of being hard drinker and from the
appearance Of her face, when, as q
matter of fact, her only fault has been
the desire to look attractive and its
foolish expression in the compression
of her waist and abdomen. Gluttony
is another common cause of a red nose
nd orc of
And in this regard gluttony does not
mean the eating of large quantities Of
food, but merely of more than sys-
tenn requires. Two and half pounds
of nutriment diem may be gluttony
for a young man or young woman who
takes little or no exercise and passes
the day reading light literature or idly
cOnversing, where five pounds would
be abstemiOusDess to a young collegian
playing ball and rowing twelve hours
out of the twentv-four. Many diseases
and more particularly the affections Of
the erysipelas class tend to express
themselves in and upon the nose and
face, not only in all of their forms and
stages, but even after having been
nominalIy cured they leave or imprint
tendency upon the system to the
same unsightly and disgusting symp-
tons.
However serious or deep-seated the
causes. it is always possible aud easy
to cure and prevent the effects. When
ever the original source of the trouble
lies in constitutional disease, depraved
condition of the system, hard drinking,
overheating. sunburn, or tight lacing,
it cannot produce the blemishes de-
scribed until after the blood has been
surcharged with humors and the vital
organs have become weakened in the
tone and activity. They are in every
instance the immediate cause of the
trouble. If they be stopped before they
reached their full development no
skin disease will break out. If they
be properly treated after that point the
disease soon disappears and the sufferer
speedily regains his beauty and health.

Henry Clay and the Goat.

The following anecdote of Henry
Clay has just been published for the
first time. As he came out of the
capitol at Washington one day, seeing
a frightened woman in the street striv9
ing to ward off the attacks of sportive
goat, he gallantly in spite of his years
and office, seized the goat by the
horns The woman thanked him and
sped hurriedly on. Mr.. Clay would
have liked to move on also, but the
goat had its own views about the inter-
ference with his innocent amusement.
As soon as the woman's deliverer
loosed his hold on the two horns the
animal rose majestically on his hind
legs and prepared for charge In
his own defense Mr.. Clay now took
the animal as before by the horns, and
thus for time they stood. while
crowd of street boys gathered about,
immensely amused at the unusual
spectacle of q Senator and goat
pitted one against the other in public
street. AS long as Mr.. Clay held the
goat by the horns all was well, but the
moment the quadruped was free came
a fresh preparation for a charge. Not
boy offered assistance, but after a
while one ventured to suggest.
Throw the billy down, sir" Mr..
Clay at once accepted and adopted the
report of that committee, and tripping
the goat up essayed to pass on. Be
fore he could fairly turn away, how
ever, the goat was up in lofty prepara-
ton for new charge. Mr. CLAY gave
his enemy the floor of the pavement
once more, and keeping him there,
turned to his new adviser with the
question, '.And what shall I do now?''
Cut and run replied the lad.

Dammipg the Great CANYONS.

No grander idea has ever been suggest
ed that proposed by our National Survey
to dam the canyons of the Rocky Noun
taing, in order to form vast reservoirs of
water, that may be used as needed, to
keep the arid lands of the great dry
basins issigated and fertile. The plan
will, if carried out, be equally valuable in
preventing floods in the Missouri and
Lower Mississippi Valleys. It is believed
that 10000 square miles of land may
thus be reclaimed for cultivation. The
extent OF this may be seen by the fact
that the total extent of low land now I'M
der cultivation in the United States is
less than 100000 square miles. Dams
can be constructed strong enough absolu-
tely 70 regulate the spring flooding, re
tain the supply an6 feed IL out slowly, as
may be needed, all summer. We shall, by
such works, not greatly surpass the en-
gineering feats of its ancients.

and she listened to the doctors direc-

missal at once.
Belle Brighton constituted herself
nurse-in-chief, wearing the prettiest of
pulled muslin aprons, and sick-room
toilets. Gladys was transformed into
q Sister of Charity. without the uniform;
but, in her de1irium, Clara motioned
them away.
''You never came near me before, ,
she said. You wouldn't speak to me-!
You told me the parlor was not for an
upper servant like me! Why do you

poor darling!" said Belle with Grim
son spots glowing on either cheek.
''She is quite out of her head!"
'.She doesn't recognize u.s." said
Gladys sweetly.
But the doctor was shrewder than
they thought. He comprehended it
all.
The March tempests were bowling
down the chimney-place when Clara
Brighton first fell i'll. 1t was early in
April when at last she sat up in a
cushioned chair.

ly, ''what on earth do you mean?"
eve are to be married." said Clara
simply. 'He has asked me to be his
wife. And he has ordered hangings
and furniture for the rooms to suit my
taste"
For an instant Mrs. Brighton was
struck dumb. Then recovering her
self with an effort, she kissed Clara
efusively.
MY dear, I'm sure I congratulate
you. And the girls will be delighted >
The Misses Brighton were apt
daughters of so accomplished mother.
To hear their greetings to Clara no one
would ever have suspected that they
had been angling so long and steadily
for DR.. Cecil themselves.
But the doctor knew that he had
won a prize. And Clara was radiantly
happy. And, under these circum-
stances, what mattered it who else was
dissatisfied?

HOW LOVELY WOMAN DRINKS.
While the Thirsty Horde of hen Lock on With

q
New York Tribune.
The hottest day this summer two young
ladies approached the ice water tank In
the waiting room in the Staten Ifland
Ferry. They wanted drink of the
water. Near by stood man who also
wanted a drink OF the water. He'd been
out with the boys the night before and
he wanted a drink of the water pretty
badly.
"You drink first, Flo"
"Oh, no; you Bess."
''Never. Go on Flo"
"I won't do it. Drink first yourself,
Bess."
There were now two men waiting.

"Of course"

"It always does mine; real hard"
s'That's funny"
''It DOES though. Don't you want some

The census was taker at this point and
80 men found gazing longingly at the ice

WORKERS in leather are spending their
leisure moments in trying to invent
substitute for chamois-skin. There are
no genuine chamois-skins in the market,
and as yet the manufactured limitations
are very inferior to the real article. An
English firm is selling a new cloth which
much resembles chamois, but has none
of its softIess and strength. Several
kinds of leather have been subjected to
different treatments with more or less
success, but mono has yet been found
satisfactory.
