1t appears that after some hundreds OF
years of cultivation OF tho potato, we are
only just beginning to understand how to
grow it--jnst Ms 10 the case OF corn, A
few things about potatoes are pretty well
known. The fine or feeding roots need to
be pretty well down in the soil, where ii is
mellow, cool aud moist, but not wet. The
tubers need rather dry aud warm soil
near the surface, in which to develope, and
they will not grow aud thrive much below
this depth. In moist soil they need to
be grown in ridges, but il is better to plant
them on dry, well drained soil, aud give
tnem fat culture. We will not discuss the
seed and preparation, but it should BE-

cultivation begins, Gil in aud level up the
drills. In this way it is claimed that the

be resorted to. The ground must be both

A DIsTILLERY BURNED.
An Kmploye Knocked Over a Lamp
and Started the Blaze.

LOUISVILLE, KY, Aug. 14-The i'm
mense distillery and warehouse of the Ken
tucky Distillery Company. owned by Bark
house & Co.. was burned to-day along with
$500 barrels, Of whisky. The fire began in
the warehouse, and was caused by the care
lessness Of a colored laborer who was shift
ing barrels with a lighted lamp on the
door. A barrel rolled against ID, knocking
it over. The barrel was leaking whisky
and the oil flashed up like gunpowder. and
flames filled the building at once. The heat
was tremendous and the fire uncomfortable.
All the buildings belonging to the plant
were destroyed. The loss on the whisky is
100000, and on the building perhaps $780,
600 more. The property is we'll insured.

was o'clock before the firemen
got control, and this was not
until the immense warehouse. cattle
ing establishment Of Conrad & Seller,
which adjoins the warehouse. had been
wiped out. The complete loss of the pork
packing company will be about $4,000.
The remaining loss of nearly
or quite $4,000 is on the
distillery proper and the destroyed whisky.
This loss is divided among twelve whisky
nrInS, Ior WnOm JULIUS Barkhouse is

pany, manufactures whisky. These

j. NJ Miller & Co., Bernheim Distilling
Company, Victor Distilling Company. Buck,
Frank q Co., Of Kentucky, Blue Gras. Dis
tlling Company, and j. G. Marks & Co.
BIG STOCK ON HAND.
These twelve firms had among them in
the warehouse 28,7ll packages, mostly in
barrels, or /, 100, III gallons This whisky
is valued at S700.000 in round numbers. The
machinery and other contents of the build
ing brings the total loss Of the distillery
companies to $500. 900. This is irrespective
of the loss to the government In unpaid
taxes, 80 cents a gallon. which amounts to
1881 1886, making the total loss by the fire
not less than $2,OO0,OO0 The Ein-
surance is roughly placed at 100000.
This is. of course, divided among the losers
in proportion of their shares in stored
whisky, aud was carried for them for J.
Barkhouse, as the Kentucky Distilllug Com
pany, in whose name it was stored. 1t of
course involves nearly every insurance
company in the city and state that take this
kind of risk, and some of the local COM
panies are caught for large sums Several
foreign companies, however. carried some
of the loss.

A REPUBLICAN SPLIT.

T. q. Miller Put Up fer Congress In
Cardinals Seventh District.
CHARLESTON, s. c., Aug. IA The repuh-
lican convention of the Seventh district to-
day nominated T. E. Miller for congress by
a vote of 2l to IS. Miller is a colored can
date. E. M. Brayton, who ran against him
and got 1s votes, drew out his forces and
will cut the race. He claims that
two of the delegates from Berke-
ley county, Oslendorff (white) and
Middleton (colored), were bought
out by Miller, who is backed by rich repub-
licans here, after having been instructed by
the county convention to vote for HIM
Brayton). After the withdrawal of the
Brayton delegates sOstendorff and Middle
ton were expelled by the Berkeley delegation
and two others substituted in their places.
This gave Brayton 20 to 10 for Miller, and
he claims the nomination. The fight prom
ises to be a most bitter one.

PURCHASES OF SILVER.
The Director OF the Mint Makes
Statement.

Staten lent.
WASHINGTON, Aug 1.-The director of
the mint said to an Associated Press re-
porter to-day in regard to the criticism on
his action in refusing to make public the
prices paid by the government for silver
yesterday: Zone would think there had
been some radical change in the policy of
the department in regard to purchases
of silver, and that was Withholding some
thing which it had been the practice hereto
fore to give out. As matter of fact, the
prices at which silver is purchased by the
government have never been made public.
We have been buying silver for twelve and
a half years for silver dollar coinage, and
until l became director it had never bsen
given out either the extent of the transac-
tion or the amount purchased.
THE PRESS REPORTS.
"This administration is the first that has
given the papers any information. In the
absence of the secretary did not feel war
ranted in changing the practice of the
department and make public the price paid
each day. AS there seems to be a strong
sentiment that this should be done intend
to communicate with the secretary on the
subject. This much l will say, there will
be no attempt on the part of the
treasury depart rtment to buy silver cheap or
to beat down prices. The government will
pay the full market price and buy 1000, coo
ounces a month, if it is to be had. The ad-
ministration desires to see the price of sill
yer advance, and there will be no attempt
in execution of the new law to throw OBJ
stacles in the way"

REED COMES OUT ON TOP.
The Attempt to Defeat One OF His
Rulings ails-

Rulings ails.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 14.-In the House
the first business in order this morning was
the vote on sustaining the decision of the
chair overruling the point of order made
by Mr. Springer of Illinois, that the Ma
thaniel Mckay relief bill must be consid-
cred in committee of the whole. The de-
cision was sustained by a vote of ia yeas
to 81 nays, the speaker counting quorum
Mr.. Struble asked unanimous consent for
consideration of the joint resolution for aid
for the destitute persons in Oklahoma.
Messrs. Baker Of New York and Perkins
of Kansas had read kilograms setting forth
the need for such aid, but Messrs. Walker
of Massachusetts, and McClammy of North
Carolina objected.
Mr.. Belden of New York asked unani-
nous consent for consideration OF the bill
granting leaves of absence to per diem en-
ployes in the customs service.
Mr.. Cheadle of Indiana objected.
Mr.. Cannon of Illinois remarked that the
House could not afford in one breath to
object to bill for the relief of starving
citizens of the United States in Oklahoma,
and in the next to grant additional pay to
federal officials who were already receiving
good salaries
The House then resumed consideration of
the Nat Mckay bill.
After speeches in favor of the bill by
Messrs. Thomas of Illinois and Stone of
Kentucky, and in opposition by Mr.
Springer of Illinois, the latter gentleman
moved to commit the measure to the
committee on war claims. No quorum was
developed on this vote. and, subsequent
efforts to secure one proving unavallng,
the House at AS o'clock adjourned.
