The potato rot fungus attacks both
the foliage and the tuber of the plants,
causing in the one case what is called
blight of the vines, and in the other
what is best known as potato rot. The
first appearance on the leaves is seen in
yellow spots and a powdery substance
ON their surface. These spots soon turn
brown, and finally the whole plant be-
comes infected and dies. If the leaf
spines come in contact with the tubers,
or if the fungus reaches them through
the stems, rotting of the tubers ensues,
provided there is a continuance of
warm, moist weather, which seems to
be condition attending the pre-, zee
of the disease. In seasons when at
mosphere is cool the tops are not at
tackled, and if the soil remains cool the
tubers will often escape when the tops
are destroyed.
Unfavorable climatic conditions of
course cannot be prevented, but it should
be remembered that loose, light soil
does not promote the decay like one in
which water is held and the air enters
with difficulty. Deeply planted pota-
toes may escape, while tubers lightly
covered may more readily contract the
disease from the vines. As rule pota-
toes should be dug as soon as the vines
show that they have been struck by the
rot. As an applied preventive some of
the experiment stations have reported
favorably on spraying the vines three Or
four times with bordeaux mixture. Used
at half strength and with paris green,
beginning with the appearance of the
potato bug, it may be made to serve two
purposes. Early planting and early
harvesting are also in the line of safety
against the potato rot.

LATE cABBAees.
aints Concerning Transplantins from
SnexIhcd IN Omen Field.

aints Concerning TranspIantins from
seedbed to Open Field.
Late cabbages are such as mature dur
ing the months of September, October
and November, the seed for which is
sown in the open ground in May or
June. AS the ground used for late cab
bage only yields one crop, unless manure
is cheap and abundant, it will not often
pay to use it in the profusion required for
early cabbages. 1t is usual to manure
In the hill, as is done for early crops, if
with stable manure, but when that is
not attainable, some concentrated fer
tilizer, such as bone dust or guano
should be used, giving a good handful
for each hill, but being careful of course
to mix it well with the soil for about
nine or ten inches deep and wide. In
this way about 300 pounds per acre will
be needed, v hen 5000 or 1000 plants are
set on an acre. In our practice we find
nothing better than pure bone dust and
guano mixed together.
In transplanting cabbages from the
seedbed to the open field in summer, Il e
work is usually done in dry and hot
season-end of June or July-and hero
again we give the oft repeated warnils (
of the absolute necessity Of having every
plant properly firmed. If the plantii Z
is well done with the dibber, it may be
enough, but it is often not well done,
and as measure of safety it is always
best to turn back on the rows after
planting and press alongside of each
plant with the foot. This is quickly
done, and besides it rests the planter, SO
that he can start on the next row with
greater vigor.
The cultivation of late cabbages is in
all respects similar to that of early, ex-
cept as it is usually planted alone; the
work of cultivation is done entirely by
the horse cultivator, the rows and plants
in the rows being, according to the kind,
from twenty-four to thirty inches apart
There are great number of kinds Of
fered in the different seed lists, but ex-
perienced cultivators con6ne themselves
to but very few kinds, says Henderson
in his Gardening for Profit, from
which the foregoing cultural notes were
CLEANED.

Late Turkeys.


A correspondent in the American
Agriculturist says concerning late tur-
keys:
In the last fifteen years have owned
several turkey hens that have, while
taking care of tho first early brood, laid
eggs, and then patched second brood
toward the latter part of summer
think vigorous hons will often do SO if
allowed to sit early. 1t makes the young
turkeys rather late, but with good quar-
tiers and good care they can be sold in
February, as they will then be five or
six months old and, taking into account
the higher prices to be obtained at that
season, will generally bring more than
the early ones marketed before the
Christmas holidays. If from lack of
proper care they are not salable in Feb
ruary, they can be kept over, and make
plump, heavy birds for the early winter
market. Some of the heaviest and most
salable turkeys that have ever sent to
market have been such very late broods,
wintered over without extra care. Such
hens will always be in demand by every
buyer who wants Thanksgiving or
Christmas roast, you may be sure; and
the gobblers will not be overlooked.

Asparagus for Market.

Market gardeners appreciate the ad-
vantages of rubber bands when bunch
ing asparagus for market. Professor
Greene, of the Ohio experiment station,
set the fashion, and favorite way with
him last season was to slip rubber
band over an ordinary coffee cup, hold
ing it near the top of the cup. Then the
cup is filed with the asparagus to be
punched, thrusting the heads of the
shoots downward into the cup When
the cup is full the rubber band is pulled
over the top of the cup upon the aspara-
gus, the bunch removed from the cup
and another band slipped over the bunch
near the tops. This makes bunch Of
about the right size and leaves the. top Of
the bunch nicely rounded. All that 70
mains to be done is to square the butts
with sharp knife.

The constant demand of the travel
ing public to the far West for COM
Portable and at the same time an eco
nomical mode of travelling has led to
the establishment of what is known
as Pullman Colonist Sleepers.
These cars are built on the same
general plan as the regular first-class
Pullman Sleeper, the only difference
is that they are not upholstered.
They are furnished complete with
good comfortable hair mattresses,
warm blankets, snow white linen,
curtains, plenty of towels, combs,
brushes, ETC., which secure TO the oc-
cupant of a berth as much privacy as
is to had in first-class sleepers.
There are also separate toilet rooms
for ladies and gentlemen, and smoking
is absolutely prohibited. For full in

Buckwheat is a crop that more atten-
ton might profitably be given to. In
many regions where it was once cult
waited to considerable extent field of it
has now become quito a rarity, but there
are some decided advantages in its cult
walton, among which, says The Southern
Farm, is the fact that it will make pa
ing yield on rather poor land. 1t is ais,
good crop for green manuring, and can
be used as a starter for improving ex-
hausted lands where it would be difficult
to procure catch of clover One or two
crops turned under would make good
foundation for stronger crop, such as
rye or clover. As it may be sown late
1t may often be used as second crop, or
to fill the gap where something else has
failed. Seed should be sown at the rate
of about three peeks an acre. and fair
crop is in the neighborhood of for
bushels. Besides being used for flour,
buekwheat makes one of the very bese
foods for fowls. 1t is a good cleaning
crop and is never attacked by insects.

er announced that in the estimation
at present of Mr.. Cleveland and his
closest friends, an extra session
would turn out to be profitless
proceeding. His friends say that
Mr.. Cleveland must have time after
bis Inauguration to look over the

Seeding beeches are tender and often
suffer by frost in the spring. writes an
English authority. but beyond that the
tree is as hardy as any in the forest, ex-
cept on one point, namely, the bark.
The beech is essentially a thin and ten
der barked tree, and the bark never,
even in extreme old age, assumes that
rough, corky condition common in most
other trees, but on the contrary always
remains smooth, glossy and very tender.
The bark is very liable to contract a GER
tain disease, which begins at first in
minute dark spots. presenting some
times the appearance of having received
the contents of fowling piece. The
spots multiply and spread all over the
surface, at times very slowly and at 9TH
ers rapidly. Excuses of cold, wet
weather during the season of growth ap-
pear to be most productive of the eis-
ease.

PROFITS OF CORN GROWING.
The Experience Of Different Cultivatorl
Gives Widely Different Results.

Tho Experience of Different Cultivators
Gives Widely Different Results.
Some cultivators find that growing corn
scarcely pays expenses, while others re-
gard it as one of the most profitable
farm crops. Those who are the most
successful and who make the most money
shelled bushels to the acre, while more
frequently seventy-five is the standard
quantity. Thirty bushels to the acre
would give rather scant returns for much
profit. AS manure is an essential for
success, the wide variation in the price
and quality would make a material diff
ference in the cost Of the crop. A well
drained, mellow soil would be moro
cheaply worked than hard and stony
one, and the best labor saving imple-
ments would reduce the hard work done
by hand. A vast difference would occur
between timely horse hoeing and neg
lecting cultivation few days, or long
enough to give dense growth of weeds,
increasing the work tenfold and smoth-
ering the young plants. The greatest
contrast wonld occur between such neg
lected treatment and tho timely use of
the smoothing harrow. which by passing
broadcast and rapidly over the whole
field every five days, would keep the land
continually clean and mellow, and i'm.
part great vigor to the young crop. Esti-
mates of th" value and profits of q good
crop will greatly vary, but the following
may be taken as Il fair one, says Couni.
