The management of seed potatoes is one of
the most important arts of the potato-grower
The chief point is to prevent them from sprout-
ing, and for this purpose low temperature as
near TO the freezing point as is possible with
out touching it is desirable. Nearly every.
where farmers find that the late varieties of po-
tatoes are more productive than the early ones.
Is not this partly due to the fact that early va
rieties have been injured by sprouting. while
late varieties are less liable to this injury?

valuable to place in cellars where vegetables
have been stored especially such as have been

Fall has been so wet that more than usual at

losses. By absorbing superauous moisture the
lime prevents the rising Of foul odors that

A great mistake of farm life is buying all
the modern machinery for cultivating the
farm, while the housewife has nothing to aid
her in her work. Let man aud wife be co-part-
ners in the farm work; let the wife understand
the work of her husband and enter into it in
the right spirit As the woman rises in charac-
ter so man rises. Never was a farmer known
to rise above the level Of the morals of his wife,
The Orange County Farmer says: Let
every farmer resolve that he will give his bet
ter-half garden this season that will eclipse
any previous one, and then proceed to carry
the resolve into effect. No part of the farm
pays larger dividends in money and health
than good garden. It will save the doctors
bills, promote comfort, tighten the housewives
cares, and generally 20 a long way toward
making life really worth living"

The Iowa State Register hits the nail
squarely On the head in the following item
ut is pleasure to the Register to recon-
mend an article of merit, and this is the
case with Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and
Diarrhea Remedy, as it has proven to be
all that is claimed for it in many instances
that have come under the writer's imme-
date notice, and the Register believes that
every family should have bottle of this
sterling remedy at all times at their homes,
as it may be necessary when least eX-
pected. Messrs. Chamberlain & Company
present testimonials as to the virtue of the
hfe-saving preparation, from nearly all of
the states in the union, and many instances
ar given where death has been averted by
its timely use. Three different epidemics
are noted, in which this standard medicine
has come out victorious, and this was the
most successful of all the remedies en-
ployed. Too much care cannot be exer-
cised to preserve the health of the children
as well as the heads of the house, and it is
always best to be prepared at all times.

New System Of Baggage Checking.

The general baggage agent of the Union
Pacific is upon a mission, the success of
which will be hailed with delight by the
travelling public who have suffered from
the present Inconvenience attendant upon
checking and receiving baggage. Mr.. Trai-
nor's object is to induce the Denver lines
to Join the Union Pacific in adopting the
new system now in vogue at many Eastern
points, by which baggage is checked to
hotel or residence in the different cities
instead of being checked to the depot. To
illustrate the new plan: A commercial
traveller, stopping at the Windsor hotel in
Denver, departs for Chicago, where he will
stop at the Palmer house. His baggage is
checked direct to the Chicago hotel and
not to the depot, and the worry and incon
venience at the baggage room is obviated.
If the traveller intends stopping alta private
residence, the baggageis likewise checked
to the street and number. Duplicate checks
are utilized and excess baggage cared for
by a system of interstate scales. Mr..
Traynor contends that handling baggage
in large cities can never be modernized
unless the present system is changed, and
for the reason that only certain number
of men can do baggage work in the depots
where the quarters are cramped as in Den
yer. The new plan has been tried east
and has given entire Observation-Disclosures

ANOTHER ROAD HEADED FOR US.
System of Checking Baggage
Boat Clubs Excursion.

People driving through Parley's canon
are surprised to see the progress that Is
being made by the Salt Lake & Eastern
road, now building from this city to Park
city. Since track-laying was RECOMMENDED
a week or ten days ago at Eagle rock, the
old terminus, about a mile of rails have
been laid, and a large force of men is at
work putting the steel in place. There are
two large parties of graders at work. One
party is finishing up the grade already con-
structed preparatory to the reception of the
ties, while the other and larger gang is
pushing the grade from the summit
down to Buzzo's ranch. 1t will
be remembered the grade was prac-
tically completed to the summit last
winter, and all the bridges were then
put in. There are still one or two heavy
fills, some trestle work and two or three
cuts to be made on this part of the road.
Judging from what could be seen from the
wag on road, the greater part of the grade
is completed from the summit to BuZZo's,
and when the latter point is reached, the
only difficulties encountered will have been
overcome. From BuZzo's to Park City the
country is comparatively level and there is
but little grading to be done Beside, the
distance is short, and the building of this
part of the track will be only few weeks
work.
The little road is going through with a
healthy rush, and a few months will see
wonders accomplished in that direction.

Through CANNON Civ to SALE Lake.

Perhaps the most important movement
in railroad circles which has been fore5had
owed for some time is the one now under
consideration by the Rio Grande, by which
that line proposes to put down third rail
from Canon City to Utah 1t was learned
yesterday, says the Denver NelcS, that the
matter had already been considered by the
authorities here and that they had arrived
at the conclusion that it had now become
an absolute necessity that some action
should be taken in order to provide means
for handling the rapidly increasing traffic
of this line. 1t is understood that the
heavy traffic in ores over the narrow gauge
has demonstrated the fact that heavier
rail and rolling stock is now essential to
the proper conduct of their business.
The local authorities have made. out a
full report of the facts which have led
them to this decision and forwarded the
same, with the proper estimates of the costs
involved in the matter of this new enter
prise, to the directors of the road in New
York for their consideration and action,
with the urgent request that the matter be
considered at once, and that their decision
shall be MADE known at as early a date as
possible, so that work can be commenced as
soon as arrangements can be made therefor.
sit has become well settled opinion
among the officials here" said prominent
Rio Grande man yesterday, "that some
thing of this kind must be done, and the
sooner it is accomplished the better it will
be for the road. Under our present ar
rangement we cannot satisfactorily handle
our business
1t is understood that the development of
the mining interests of the states coutgu
GUS to this line has in large measure beeL
instrumental in leading to this step, as
well as the increased traffic from Utah.

The stairway is rich; there is a beautiful
mantel in it. The stairway at one end shows
up nicely from the front and projects into a
bay at the side This plan is capable of
being contracted into a much smaller house
The rooms are large, and altogether it is on
quite en- extensive scale. It has been built
several times several sizes smaller and at a
much less cost, From the large hall one can

The pantry, china closet and kitchen are as

The idea in all is the same. The require

than in one less expensive Labor saving de-
vices are even more necessary in a cheaper
house than in one which is mere expensive,
though it usually happens that the owners of
more expensive buildings are better prepared
to equip themselves with complete arrange

more modern structures.
The idea in all these kitchen plans is that it
and its annexes of china closet and kitchen
pantry form the workrooms of the house, and
as such should DO treated from labor saving
standpoint. The saving of one step in the
performance of a single operation will save
