Marketing EarIy Potatoes.

To those who are unfamiliar with po-
tato growing, the high prices which
early potatoes command might seem
to make it an object to dig a large part
of the crop and market it while tie
price is up. But there are several draw
backs in marketing potatoes early.
The weather is hot, and while the skins
of potatoes are tender, they will rub
off their jackets if handled freely, and
the potatoes are then almost sure to
rot. Hence they are never sent far or
in large quantities. In digging po-.
tatoes early there is great waste, as
only few of the largest are of mark
etable size, and those that will sell
would grow still larger if left few
days longer in the hill. We have seen
growers put their hand into potato
hill and pull off those potatoes that
they found large enough, leaving the
small ones TO grow. But this is only
practicable on a small scale.-American

PRETTY WELL HOUSE.
It Is Not Only Very Attractive, But
Helps to Keep the Farm
Water supply Cool.

In view of the comfort which comes
from well of cold water during the
hot weather on farms where ice is not
put up, it is worth the while to do all
in ones power to keep the suns heat
out of the well. Few realize the
amount of heat that goes down into
well of water through the platform
that surrounds the pump. 1t can be
partially realized by going up into a
close attic under the roof some hot
day. AS a matter of fact, closed air
spaces beneath boarding that is ex-
posed to the bright sun become fear
fully heated, and in the case of wells
this heat is soon transmitted to the
water. A double platform with an air
