DIGGING AND STORING POTATOES.

The early crop is often injured by de-
lay in digging. AS soon as the vines are
dead the potatoes should be dug and
stored. Every one koows that a potato
in the spring when it has started TO grow
and pushed its sprouts becomes of infe-
rior quality for the table; its starch be-
comes changed into sugar and other prin.
ciples which feed the growth OF the
leaves, and the tuber becomes soggy and
of poor quality. When the early potato
becomes ripcned, the top or vines die
down and long period of dry weather
completes the ripening and the tubers
should be dug and housed. II. after a
dry season, wet one follows, "A long
warm rain starts the tubers into growth,
not growth of stems and leaves, but
kind Of growth which often takes place
when potatoes are stored in too warm a
place, called 'supertuberation. In this
the material stored in the tuber for sus-
tanning the growth of the following year
is started and used for the formation of
new small tubers. Most observing far
mers must have found in their potato-bin
toward spring new potatoes produced
from the material of old tubers. Pota-
toes should be dried off before they are
stored, and in doing this they should not
he exposed to the sun. The old farm
house cellar, which is being abandoned
as storehouse for potatoes and other
crops has an advantage as place for stor-
ing potatoes, as the odor which attends
the destructive disease may be noticed at
its appearance and the affected potatoes
removed. american Agrieulturist.

THE FARM AND GARDEN
RAlsrNe ruRNrrs ron snkn.

In Pennsylvania, where the growing OF
turnips for seed is a great industry, the
seed Is sown between the rows of corn,
after the last working. This gives tur-
nips about two inches in diameter, the
most desirable size for seed purposes. In
this manner good crop is secured at a
nominal cost, as they require no work af-
ter sowing Sufficient roots can be
grown with an acre of corn to set three
acres for seed the following season. -

Saloon Work.

There is deal of complaints over
the conduct of persons who get of
the trains of evenings, after having
been at Knoxville: of course that is
the effect of whiskey, drinking, it is
always so, when whiskey used, and
especially where there are no off,
GERS to take charge of drunk men,
when they get off the trains. To
have elected, employed officers, it
will be necessary to pay taxes, to
remunerate them for their services
besides that does not always cure
the dihiculty. If you read the dali
~ PAPERS of our sister city, you will
find that there is scarcely q night
but there are saloon fights, embrace
ing men and women, who are drunk.
Corporations cannot even control
these troubles as whiskey is an ON
nipresent and all powerful devil
having millions of angels doing his
work, and who are now doing his
work, and who are now bombarding
the very gates Of Heaven, 1t does
look like fire from the eternal God,
will alone be able to control Satans
hellish work through the saloons.

long and three fOurths of "a mile

till the meeting of the next Legisla-
ture, and have a an agreed charter
which shall be general for all towns
of the size of Maryville. There is
no question about the right of a sa-
loon coming to an incorporated
under any laws there can however
be an agreement as to the fixed IL
cense of persons who sell liquor, SO
there shall not necessary be a fight
at each and every election, over the
question as to the sum to be charged
Under State laws, the thing we can
do, is to agree on the amount of IL
cense and fix it in the charter SC
there can be no variableness mol
shadow of turning. The town is vi
to a point when if the right kind O.
an incorporation can be had. Mary
vile should have it. So let the peO
pie act wisely in the matter take II
the whole town, and get charter
