efits will accure TO the entire Missis-
sippi Valley, the lake ports, and the
Atlantic coast. Ship building and
the shipping interests in New Eng
land will receive new impetus. A
new coasting trade will spring up
and American tonnage on the high
seas will largely increase.
The committee says that the great
transatlantic powers are looking
with covetous eyes towards the Mic,
aragua project and that fol eign gov
ernments would very cheerfully and
eagerly embrace an opportunity to
take advantage of the enterprise
with unlimited capital and prompt
energy, but it conceives it to be the
patriotic and political privilege of
the United States to complete the ca
nal. The commercial and naval su-
premacy Of the nation which might
secure control Of the canal demands
imperativeIy that its control should
not pass away from the people of the
United States. 1t is made plain
that two fleets would be required to
block an Il merican fleet in Nicar-
aqua where one would be necessary

sells and large proportion OF it
passed around the Horn. The Mic
aragua Canal by shortening the
route to Atlantic ports would not
only save the producer cost of
freight but the revenue OF the canal
at 81 per ton toll would be nearly
$3,000,000 on wheat alone. II is
shown that there arc 100000, 900
thousand feet of merchantable tim
ber in Washington and Oregon to
the value os which over 81 per
thousand feet would be added by
cheap water transportation via the
Nicaragua canal. The gross addi-
ton to the value would amount to
the enormous sum OF 81 600, ,000, 900,
even at this low estimate of So ad-
ditional. The fruit industry OF
California would quadruple in two
years from the opening of the canal
tor business and fast refrigerator
steamers would deliver fruit from
California to New York in ten days,
to Liverpool in fourteen days, and
to New Orleans in eight days. The
mountains OF the Pacific coast are
rich in lead, copper, silver and gold,

POTATOES, TURSIpS AND APPLES.
How to Keep Them Through the
Winter.

The Arkansas Monthly Review
Bulletin and Crop Reporter gives
the following suggestion for keep
ing potatoes, turnips and apples
by James Mitchell of Van Buren,.
Ark:
Pile your potatoes on the bare
ground in round heap: cover them
lightly with three or four inches of
hay or straw; then put about ten
inches OF dirt over the mound and
pat it smooth and Fl, m with spade.
keeping the heap sharp at the top
to shed the water in every direct
ion; surround tho whole with ~
ditch we'll drained so that no water
will stand in it. By pursuing this
method every potato which you put,
into the mound, sound, in tive
fall, will come out sound in the
spring and rain on them does no
harm.
Potatoes may be kept VIII re it is:
cold and dark, just SO they don't
freeze.
Apples will keep the same
way.
Turnips can be kept sweet all the
winter by piling them up the same
way, when slightly froze and on a
cold day-the object being to keep.
the frost in them instead Of out
then covering them with four OR
five inches of dirt (without u first
covering of straw and they will
keep sweet and good.
II q turnip is kept dry it will
wilt; it it is kept warm and wet it
will grow, but keeping 1t in the man.
ner mentioned before it will
keep in good andspalatable eondi-
ton.
To use from the heap during the
winter it is only necessary, to make
a hole on the south side, take out
what you want and stop the hole
with hay or straw.

tee thinks the completion of the
Nicaragua Canal is only needed to
develop that country to production
of gigantic proportions and double
the population OF the Pacific Coast
in few years. The cotton growing
scctionss Of the Gulf States have
undergone depression, and the
committee believes that nothing
could be ef greater immediate ad-
vantage than the canal in relieving
that depression, and making II mar

the enormous amounts OF coal the

The tonnage tributary now to tho
Nicaragua Canal, and which would
pass through after its opening, is
over 100000 tons a year. At 50
per ton, the charge made by the
suez Canal, this would be $4,000,
600 in tolls. The cost of operation
and maintainanee is placed at less
than $1,000,000, and 10000
tons would show net income of
SlI ,000,0 600 per annum. The COM
mite is confident that within five
years the income will be over $20,-
| 100000.
The committee says it is no longer
question whether the canal will be
built or not. The only question is
as to who shall build it, and who
shall control it when built? 1t says
it has been informed that European
syndicates have already made over
lures to the canal company, but the
committee believes the United
States can not afford by carelessness,
hesitation or neglect to permit an
enterprise of such magnitude and of
such far reaching advantage to pass
under the control of any foreign
company. 1T therefore behooves

ton conscious Of the power We WELD
and of the great influence we may
exert npod the destinies of this con-
tinent,to perform the duties without
delay which we deny other nations

adopt now the best means Of secur-
ing the early completion of This

Government OF Nicaragua has ac-
knowledged that the company has
complied with the canal grant, which
provived that 100000 must be
expended the first year. t is shown
that the amount of money spent to
date on the enterprise is over So

by the leading business men of the
country, aud that it will be judi

tecting the investor against misuse
of his money.

Buckwheat is crop that more atten-
ton might probably be given to. In
many regions where it was once Guilt
waited to considerable extent field of it
has now become quite rarity, but there
are some decided advantages in its Guilt
walton, among which, says The Southern
Farm, is the fact that it will make a pay
ing yield on rather poor land. 1t is also
good crop for green manuring, and can
be used as a starter for improving ex-
hausted lands where 1t 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
it may often be used as second crop, OF
to fill the gap where something else has
failed. Seed should be sown at the rate
of about three pecks an acre, and fair
crop is in the neighborhood of forty
bushels, Besides being used for -four
buckwheat makes one Of the very best
foods for fowls. 1t is a good cleaning
crop and is never attacked by insects.
