HANDLING POTATOES.


0adioious Marketing Fully - Important
- the Raising.
The profit or loss in the crop depends
, fully as much on the way it is cared for
and marketed as upon its successful
production. As q rule it does not talk0
the same amount of care and ingenuity
to produce q good crop as it does to
care for it and market it to the best
advantage and at the least cost ,
great many products are injured
/; by too much handling, and with the
crude methods used it can hardly he
avoided. What is needed is an improve
ment in methods. The usual me thods
for handling potatoes, for instance.
is to pick them up in baskets and empty
them into pits or into the wagon box.
when they have to be handled again
by hand or NTH fork or shovel. and
either spend q good deal of time in
picking them up by hand or injure
them and start decay by bruising them
with shovel or fork. T. B. Terry, in his
"A c of Potato Culture" tells MS .
better way.
For several years I have been using
,bushel boxes for marketing early pota-
toes while the skins slip, and for
handling the crop in the field all
through tho season. This is one of tho
ways in which the potato specialist
can get ahead of the small raiser. T
think we handle our crop for less than
half of what it used to cost us before
we got these boxes made. Our boxes
are IS inches by 16 and IS deep, all in
side measures. They were made .
little deeper, to allow for shrinka&e.,
The sides and bottoms are made of
three-eighths stuff and the ends of five
eighths. Hand holes are cut in the
ends.
4 The upper corners are bound with
galvanized hoop-iron to make them
strong. The price paid for them was
from $25 to $50 hundred at box fac
tory. Some light wood should be used,
of course, SO to make them as light
as possible. They need not weigh
more than six or seven pounds Early
in the season, while the skins slip, our
potatoes are dug and laid mot thrown)
into these boxes, and the boxes are
covered fast filled. They are
then safe from sun and rain till want
ed for market. The covers are simply
pieces of boards cut about 15xIs inches.
Dug one day and taken to market the
next and set off on the boxes at the
grocer's and then set by him into his
delivery wagon and taken to his Gus
toners the consumer gets them just
nice and fresh as though he raised
them himself. OF course, these boxes
filed with potatoes should be carried
Oh q spring wagon and covered by cam
vas from sun and rain.

THE GUINEA FOWL.

birds which Deserve More Attention Than
They Now Receive.
There good many varieties Of this
bird, all OF which are supposed to have
originated in Africa. The two kinds
most generally known are the speckled,
or pearl, and the white, the former be-
ing the more common variety. They
are prolific layers during the summer
season; they mature early, and their
flesh is fine and tender. The meat of
the white Guinea is white, the skin be-
ing yellow; the speclzled have dark
flesh; both have a gamey flavor.
The birds mate in pairs They usu-
ally commence to Icy in May June.
The eggs, though small, are rich in
flavor. The shell is very hard, and if
the eggs are set under = hen, the nest
should be filed with dirt and set in a
COOL, moist place. The period of incu-
baton is twenty-six days. When
young, they are delicate, like turkeys,
and continue 50 until they change their
coat of soft down for one of feathers,
They should be fed and managed like
young turkeys. and, like them. will be

attacks of hawks, crows or rats, as they
are quick to give the alarm in a loud
shrill cry, NOSE unpleasant to the I'M

to be urged against these birds are tIeil
noise and quarre1some habits. In the
poultry yard they are spiteful (espe-
cially the cocks) to young chicks, and
are, generally speaking, of a very pag-
nacious disposition.
The young can easily be trained to
run with hens, and when SO reared
will not be apt to quarrel will,

quite wild. but when kindly treated
and often fed, they will become suffi-
GENTLY tame to eat from the hand, and
will not wander fur from home. The
white variety are more tame than the

fowls by either purchasing eggs and
Matching them under domestic lens,
or procuring them when young, when
they are more likely to localize them

birds be purchased they will require
and feeding carefully to tame taem,
otherwise they arc liable to wander Off
at their own sweet will, possibly never
to return.
But in spite of these disadvantages,
