The Bouquet Redoubt the Only One In

Here in Pennsylvania we find what
is not in existence in the east or south
lone Of the original blockhouses built
before the Revolution and still in per-
feet state Of preservation All the others
have disappeared. Forts Duquesne and
Pitt are things Of the past, but the re
doubt Of Colonel Bouquet stands today
as it stood 1870 years ago To the Pitts
burg chapter Of the Daughters of the
Revolution we are indebted for its res
toration. 1t has been owned by them
since 1888. Until that year the old
redoubt Of Bouquet, as it is called, was
occupied as q tenant house, and within
its walls was born Pittsburg's local his
torian, the late Neville b. Craige, ESQ.
Down on "the point" ON q narrow,
dirty little street called Fort street, sur
rounded by tumbledown buildings near

Colonel Bouquet in 1894 as defense

Of stone and the upper Of brick. In both
are perforations or loopholes, through
which the defenders could fire with

Why this redoubt was erected has

The influence Of air and slSy

That fall upon the watehfnl eye
OF him who, silent. waits alone,
And crown him master of his own.
He knows the beauty Of the rose.
The central sun; the farthest star he knows
The balance Of blade of grass.
The winds that In the meadows run.
Gathering incense as they pass
To offer to the throned sun.
The trembling secret TO be won
From every running stream, all these
Are his. yet force him silent to his knees.
The watcher shall possess the earth
In silence, leaping to control
In moments mighty with the birth
OF passion, when the eternal soul
Shall wholly bind him 20 the whole.
Tho air and sky, tho winds, the rose.
Are his, the earth. yea, God himself he
knows.

Eau Eve For Potatoes.

A writer in The American Agricui-
turist says: Every fall after removing
the potatoes pillow the ground, using
care to turn under all the tops, and SOW
1t with rye, two bushels to the acre.
The rye was tall and we'll headed ont
when turned under the latter part Of
May and furnished considerable mass
Of vegetable material to decompose in
the soil. The result is always satisfac-
tory, the potatoes being of the best
quality and giving good yield, rather
increasing year by year without other
manure, while the heavy clay soil be-
came more friable and soon reached that
light and crumbly condition so desira.
BILE for root crops.
In fact, it finally became SO full of
decomposing vegetable matter that, be-
ing on side hill. it would sometimes
gully With the violent summer showers,
and to avoid this trouble seeded it to
grass again. As matter Of conven-
fence and to keep the field smooth it
should be plowed toward the center liz
the fall and plowed ont in the spring.
This viii prevent an increasing uneven.
ness of soil in back burrows and dead
burrows and will keep the field in good
condition.
A Utah correspondent OF The Irriga-
ton Age tells that vick's Idol is one of
the best caulifowers for raising for
market under irrigation and Early Sown
Boil the next best.
At the Oregon station Que eye pieces
yielded mere than two or three eye
pieces or whole potatoes. Mr.. Terry Of
! Ohio says he never uses larger than one
eye pieces for planting, and yet his av-
erage yield for number Of years has
been nearly $50 bushels per acre.
Farmers in southern Wisconsin report
q sad condition Of affairs as regards the
hay crop. Some grass that will stand
| freezing and drought better than tim
othy or red clover is greatly needed by
| Wisconsin farmers
AT the Michigan station the results
for 1890 and 1891 were in favor Of
planting potatoes one or two inches
deep rather than three. four or FIVE,
while in 1898 the planting five inches
deep gave the best results.
