PITTING POTATOES.
After All Has Been Done or Said, This
Is the Safest Way of Keep
ing the Tubers.

Potatoes keep better in a pit than
enywhere else, but they must be well
protected to prevent zero weather from
catching them. They should never be
covered deeply enough TO allow them to
become at all heated or they will start
to grow. The first covering should be
not more than six inches deep and this
should not be increased until the
ground has frozen enough to bear up
man. Then put on covering of straw,
ever the soil already on, and put on
more soil, patting it down to make it
shed rain. Leave the pit until actual
winter has come and the ground is well
frozen and then over all put foot of
fresh manure from the stables. Don't
be afraid of driving .he frost in, for this
will not happen. Keep the manure on
until the potatoes are needed in the
,pripg, for the covered pit will not
thaw out nor will the manure allow it to
freeze any more, and the potatoes will
not sprout until time for planting in the
spring if left in the pit.
Potatoes that are to be used for seed
should be placed in pit by themselves
SO as to leave them undisturbed until
taken out to plant.-Farmers' Voice.

A TALE OF SANTIAGO.
The Fighting Blood of the spuEPyn
Wns Strong In the Hero OF
This Little Story.

II. Irving Hancock contributes a tale
CT the capture of Santiago, entitled
"Chuggins, the Youngest Hero with tho
Army" to st. Nicholas. 1t is the story
Of u boy, whose various ancestors had
served in all of the American wars.
The fighting blood in him was too
strong to be resisted, aud he finally
made his way to Cuba with the Ameri-
can troops. Here is what he saw at Las
Guasimas, where the rough riders got
their first taste of war:
If there were bullets flying now, he
cid not know it--did not stop to think
of them, but spurted over the rough,
uneven road, full of the idea that he
was to fire few more shots for that
gallant young soldier behind. 1t was
strange how completely that idea shut
out any other thought. Now the firing
rang louder than ever; there were
cheers mingled with it. Chuggins came
in sight of an irregular mass OF men
ahead. They were charging through
the jungle and under the trees, firing
as they ran. AT a quick, sharp COM
mand, they lay down, but kept on fir
ing. Painting, Chuggins ran among
them, unnoticed, throwing himself
upon the ground between two of the
men. Through the trees he caught
Just glimpse of little brown men in
blue-nnd-white uniforms that looked
very much like bed-ticking. They were
firing at the rough riders as fast as they
could work their guns, while the Ameri-
cans were giving rather more than they
received.
Chuggins had no time to see whether
men were being hit around him, but he
knew that the hiss and chug of bullets
all about him was something terrifying,
and he had time to be afraid. For few
moments he shook as If with ague. 1t
was the thought of that dead soldiers
face, with the lips trying to say "Hur-
rah!" that made Sperry of him again.

A WISCONSIN WAY.

braska Whether it will be found equal
ly serviceable in some other parts of the
country can only be told by experience.
In our second illustration is shown
the method as followed in some parts
of Wisconsin. Notice is taken of the
fact that greater cold and more adverse
conditions must be faced. The cut
shows a cross section only as the beets
are really placed in deep and wide
furrow and may be any number of feet
in length. The pile here shown is about
six feet wide and three feet high. On
top of it is Is inches of earth with ven

is left open while the roots are sweat

PRETTY MINK STORY.
a Family of the Little Creatures Re-
turns to Its Old Home After
Long 4Absencc.

A very pretty mink story comes from
one of the cottages on the shores of
Lake Auburn. For several years two
minks made their home under shelly
ing rock, close by the cottage. They
lived after the manner of all minks,
raising each little brood of vigorous
young which in due time struck out for
themselves. The people at the cottage
liked to see them round and were care
full not to disturb their domestic happi-
ness.
But two years ago they suddenly dis
appeared and have been mourned as
dead ever since. A few days ago, how
ever, they returned. The first sign of
their presence was the discovery of the
minks in the pasture back of the cot
tage, gathering ferns and carrying
them to the old home under the shelv-
ing rock The ferns were for the con-
struction of a nest. The work was
prosecuted industriously and in due
time member of the household. seated
on the piazza of the cottage, saw the
minks swimming along the shore with
three little minks in their mouths, dis
appearing when opposite their old
home under the shelving rock.
For some reason or other the new
home had been forsaken for the old one.
The cottagcrs learned that while the
nest of the minks is out of the water it
is necessary that the entrance must be
effected under water, the idea being to
disguise their abiding place. 1t was
found that the water had fallen away
from the entrance to the new home in n
stump, and this is supposed to be the
reason of the return to the old home
stead. The family of minks don't know
it, but it is more than welcome.-Lew-
