Storing Potatoes.

A perfect store place is capable of be
ing kept quite dark and cool, but quite
safe from frost. Therefore it should be
at least partially under the ground level,
as being the easiest way of keeping frost
at bay. If stored in sheds, they should
not be put into large masses directly they
are lifted, for they are liable to generate
more warmth than is good for them, but
if spread out rather thinly at first, they
may, after fortnight, be placed much
thicker without any harm. But where
large quantities have to be kept through
the winter there is no better plan than
placing them in mounds, according to
The Gardeners Magazine, which ad.
vises as follows:
Select place little above the gen.
eral level, so as to be quite safe from
flooding after heavy rains, and having
marked out the space required put o
good layer Of straw. Proceed to pack
the potatoes into conical long heap,
cover with straw, and then place a suf.
flcient thickness Of soil to keep out frost,
and beat it down so firm and smooth
that the rain will run off into the trench
surrounding it. The top should not be
quiet closed up until severe frost renders
it necessary to do so.

Agricultural Colleges and Stations.

According to the United States de-
partment of agriculture's report, there
are 57 institutions of learning having
courses in agriculture Several of the
southern states have separate institu-
tions for colored students These insti-
tutions had 3,847 students in agricul-
tnral courses and 229 graduates from
such courses in 1894. The total number
Of agricultural graduates, including
1894, was 8,008. Thirty-six of these in
stitutions offer courses shorter than the
standard one of four years, some being
for only few weeks. In very few cases
are the students completing these courses
olassed as graduates. 1t is difficult to
get correct statistics as applied to agri
cultural education in these institutions,
as many Of them give instruction in
other courses, as in the case Of state uni
versities Of which the agricultural col
leges form part. There were 53 expert
ment stations, with an income from all
sources of almost $1,000, 900 for the
year, and with 557 persons in their
working staffs, not counting ordinary
laborers. Many Of the members of the
station stats also give instruction in the
agricultural colleges, with which the
stations are connected in most states.

Wheel For Seed.

W. @. Latta, writing from the Indiana
station to Prairie Farmer, gives some
advice of use wherever wheat Is grown.
He says: The seed should be sound,
plump, heavy, and Of strong vitality.
To this end, the wheat from which the
seed is to be obtained should be allowed
to become fully ripe and should not be
subject to prolonged dampness, which
will cause mold in the shock and heat
ing in the sack or bin.
The common practice of passing wheat
for seed through the tanning mill is a
good one, but it should be repeated if
necessary with strong blast to screen
and blow out all small, light and
shrunken kernels, leaving only plump
seed for sowing If necessary to treat
the seed wheat for "bunt" the lighter
kernels may be skinned off, which will
further improve the quality of the seed.
If the crop from which the seed wheat
is obtained contains any "bunt" on
sinking smut, it should be treated after
screening with "bluestone" or hot
water to destroy the germs We prefer
the hot water treatment which tends tC
re-enforce the terminating power of the
seeds, whereas the blue stone treatment
tends to retard the termination and re.
duce the yield Of the crop

Place to Keep Honey.

When honey is removed from the
hive, never place it down cellar. That
is the worst thing you could do, because
there is always more or less moisture in
cellar. At first thought one might be
inclined to think this a useless state
ment, as it has been repeated in various
forms a great many times, but it is far
from useless. In fact, writes a CORE
spondent of The American Bee Journal,
it is very important. The truth Of the
matter is that there are great many
who have not learned that it is just as
important to take proper care Of the
honey and put it on the market in first
class condition as it is to use the best
and most economical means of securing
it. One Of the essentials Of proper care
is keeping the honey in very dry and
warm place. Especially is this true of
comb honey or extracted honey in open
cans. Honey taints very easily,

Seed Wheat.

We know now for certainty that a
great deal of the wheat rust is brought
on our farms through the seed, and the
spores of the rust are held over from
year to year in the seed, Seed that is
taken from the field where the rust has
been prevalent should always be subject
to the hot water test. The seed we pur-
chase from seedsmen should also be
treated in this way, for we know not
how many rust spores may be in the
seed to begin gr owing when the favor
able conditions are given. The hot wa
ter test is the only sure way of killing
rust, If done properly, there is no dan
ger Of injuring the vitality of the seeds,
while all the spores of disease will be
thoroughly destroyed, writes an Ameri-
can Cultivator correspondent.

ance, 1t is a most unwelcome and often
very destructive visitor. No matter
how many insects it may devour, we
want to get lid Of it, Good mole traps
have heretofore been held at rather
high figure, say 81 or so, but that prac-
tical horticulturist and writer, T. Grei-
ner, does not think it is necessary 60 buy
trap. In fact, he tells in letter to
American Cultivator how to make a
very good one ON the figure 4" prlnci-
pie. He says:
This figure 4" trap may be varied in
size and form and perhaps in some minor
features. The illustration shows a good
way how to set and arrange it. The
board or plank may be or feet long
and 10 or l2 inches wide Sharpened
spikes are driven through the board in
a row, on each side Of where the trigger
will rest on the ground over the mole
run. The lower end of the plank is held
in place by a pin driven into the ground
through a hole in the plank. The other
end is weighted with n stone, and little

side prevent the plank from going off
to one side when falling In setting the
trap select any level spot over the mole
run. Press the foot down on the ground
where raised by the mole, and then
place the trap so that the trigger will
rest on the depressed spot, and the
! spikes, when the plank falls, will be
pushed down across the mole run on
each side Of the trigger Here you have
a trap that any one with the least bit of
mechanical ingenuity can make, and
| you will be pretty sure TO catch the
mole if you set the trap properly and
persistently.
In some sections snails and slugs give
considerable trouble. The foliage of
early peas and other plants will be eaten

to the authority quoted. Fill up your
knapsack sprayer with salt water or
with lime waite, and then go to the
patch where the slugs are at work, usu.

plants good spraying. That treatment
will kill every slug touched by the
spray. In the morning only grease spots
are left of them.

comb then lift the pallet by the cleat

not know but beekeepers generally have
used such clamps, but as far as know
they use pegs, strings and other devices
equally unhandy. There is an abun-
dance Of wire suitable for making clamps
lying around here that has been used in
baling hay. The clamps should be just
large enough to go over the outside of
the frames from top to bottom. AS soon
as the combs are stuck by the bees the
clamps can be taken off and used again.
