TO Keep Sweet Potatoes.
It Will Take Some Trouble. but
Looks Like it Would Paw.

A Virginian in writing to Home
and Farm concerning methods of
keeping sweet potatoes, says one
who has been very successful in that
line pursued the following plan:
Select spot in your garden from
which the water drains readily, dig a
trench around spot as large as you
wish the mound, throwing up the
earth so as to raise it about ten or
twelve inches above the trench. On
this place layer of dry soil or road
sand. In the middle of this set up a
kind of pipe for the escape of heated
air, made of four three-inch wide,
inch thick planks, each piece bored
quite thickly with big auger holes
Zone and one-haIf inches in diameter),
the holes say about six inches apart,
from bottom to top of pipe As soon
as the potatoes are dug, carry them to
this place and pile them up around
this pipe, coneshaped, as these kilns
generally are. When you have piled
up all your potetoes take dry straw,
and then on this throw dry dirt or
sand until it is about eight or ten
inches thick all over After all is
mounded up the pipe should extend
at least foot and half above the
top In ordinary weather leave this
open, but when frosty, cold nights or
days come. stuff some straw or grass
down the pipe, rather below the sur
face of top of mound. and when it
gets warm again pull it out In real
cold winter weather throw an old
piece of carpet or something over the
pipe in addition.
Make shelter over the mound so
that it will not get wet. Plant four
posts, two being, say about two feet
higher than the other two nail a
strip at the top of the two higher ones
and another at the top of the lower
ones over this nail some boards or
planks so as 10 turn rain and you have
very good shelter. have found
that all vegetables put up in these
mounds keep better from being pro-
tected from rains and suns, in other
words kept dry 1t is we'll to at
least have two mounds for your pota

need not say, perhaps, but will.
that it is best to get out enough pota
toes to last for week or so at time,
as Of course daily opening makes,
them more liable to hurt. Every one,
can arrange so as to keep small
quantity from hurting before using.
! Some will say that this is too much
trouble, but if you want to keep sweet
potatoes you have certainly to take
trouble, and if the end is gained by
simply filling up the pipe in cold
weather and opening it in the milder;
that's small trouble. | think.

tribes lacked discipline ana powers OF

of little avail in war with white men;
also there were great jealousies between
their leaders which must be overcome, and

over, many tribes took this occasion OF the
trouble of the Aztecs to throw off their al

WIVES THAT COST MONEY.

Miss Adele Fielde talked interest
ingly Of the econdition and legal stat
us of Chinese women, Miss Fielde
spoke first of the methods employ
ed by her to obtain accurate knowl-
edge regarding any conditions of
the people or social customs of Chi
ma. She said that in order to OBJ
tain truthful information it was
necessary to use great tact and
avoid asking questions of the ma
tives, who are always suspicious of
foreigners. BY suggesting an ex-
change of life histories with about
40 grandmothers in various villages,
and obtaining similar assistance
from about so other women mis-
sionaries, Miss Fielde arrived at a
correct knowledge of the long es-
tablished customs relating to the
women The teachings of false
religion, Miss Fielde said, were re-
sponsible for the fact that many
girl babies were killed at birth, On
ly at times when women become
somewhat scarce in proportion to
the male population, thus making
the price Of a wife high, does this
pernicious practice grow less.
"When | first went to China, y
said Miss Fielde, "2O years ago, the
average price of wife was $40.
When / left there, two years ago,
it had risen to 5000, aud but few
girls were being strangled at
birth.
Miss Fielde spoke Of the custom
of binding the feet, saying that
though there were numerous leg
ends about it, it was not known def
initely why the custom prevailed
Though the custom is painful" "
said she, "it Is, believe, less inju-
rious than the waist binding Of this
country, There are said to be very
few women in America whose inter
nal organs are all in the proper
places, because Of the habit of tight
lacing"
Notwithstanding the oppression
of The Chinese women, Miss Fielde
declares they possess a great ca.
paclty for knowledge, "China has
not risen in civilization because she
has kept her women down, said
