KEEPING SEED POTATOES.
Practice That Has Been Success
fully Employed by Eastern Grow.
ers for Some Time.

The success of the potato crop0de.
ponds much upon the vigor and condi,
ton of the seed potatoes. Some grow
ers have adopted the following prac
tice with excellent results.
When the potatoes are dug, those
which are to be used for seed are
stored in a dry, dark shed or barn IN.
til about the 10th of November. just
before freezing weather sets in, the
potatoes are carefully sorted, ano
those which show the slightest signs
of decay are rejected. Alayer of straw
from eight to ten inches thick is spread
on the ground and the tubers placed
upon this straw. The piles should not
be made too large.
The best results are usually OBJ,
tanned from mounds three feet wide
at the base and piled upon ridges as
high as convenient. A covering of
straw is placed oye the potatoes, and
this is followed by a layer of soil from
six to eight inches thick, but before
severe weather sets in more soili is add
ed, and when the severest weather is
at hand, more straw, or strawy barn
manure is added. The aim is to cover
gradually as the cold Increases. This
method of storing potatoes seems to
winter them much better for SEED
than when they are placed in root eel
lars, or when they are stored il
mounds Immediately after they are
dug.
About the last of April they are
taken from the pit and again stored in
a dark shed or barn until about ten
days before planting time, when they
are treated with corrosive sublimate.
After this treatment they are placed
where they will be freely exposed to
the sun. Seed should not be- cut until
shortly before planting. If plantingis
delayed, the cut pieces should be
placed in a moist, cool p~lace.-Ameri-
can Gardening.

THE BEES In AUTUMN.
Feeding EARLY for Winter Stores II
aPractice Highly Recommended
by Expert Apiarists.

The bees should be fed early. so they
can seal up their stores, and feeding at
this time not only insures good stores
but it also creates brood rearing. which
is as important as feeding. The feed
ing should be done to secure the best
results in promoting the production OF
brood; to do this, they should be fed
regularly every day during the entire
month, so that at the close we have
the required amount of stores and sew
eral frames full of brood. besides a
good supply of young bees.
Sugar-fed colonies, if properly fed
usually winter better than those not
so fed. especially if there is no honey
flow at this time. We may exceptional
" have such a honey flow in autumn
that bees do not require any feed, but
this is very rare, and colonies that DO
not have enough stores in the hive at
the close of the honey harvest seldom
gainl much during the balance OF the
season. Late feeding just before going
into winter quarters is not good policy
for the bees cannot seal up thelr
stores, even if they are fed sufficiently,
and no brood rearing will be done at
this time, and we lose half of the bene-
fits.
1t is best when beginning to feed to
feed lightly for a week or more. This
will give the queen a chance to fill the
brood nest with eggs; then during the
latter part of the month feed more
heavily until the required amount is
given. Bees that are to be wintereo
out of doors without extra protection
should be fed more; and 80 or 4o
pounds will not be too much. If win
tered in the cellar, 25 pounds is safe
enough. Some who make a speciality
feed less or carry them through with
less honey. but they feed in early
spring. 1t is best to feed enough, or
give them enough honey during the fall
to both spring and winter them, for
they may be neglected in spring.-A
Fl. Duff, in Farmers Voice.
Oxford eagle. (Oxford, Lafayette Co., Miss.) 1876-current, 1902-10-09
Something Good to Eat.

The horticulturist does not lack for
something good to eat. In fact, he
lives on the best that the world af-
fords. His family is well fed. The
strawberry opens the season. Before
this furit is gone the early cherries
and ~raspberries are ripe. They are
followed by a succession of fruits of
many kinds that leave NJ vacancies.
There are peaches, plums, pears,
grapes and ounces ripening all along
through the season. Even in winter
there are apples in the cellar, except
where it is too far south; and there
it is probable that some other fruits
are in season.
The ladies, on a fruit farm, rarely
lack for something in the house to
cook that is good and easy to pre-
pare for the table. There is a great
difference between having plenty of
fruits and vegetables at hand and not
having them when a meal is to be
prepared. And there is a difference
when we sit down to eat. The fruit
grower revels in that which his city
cousin can only get at Fl high price
and of inferior quality; because, it
has TO be gathered befo*e it is ripe
and sent to market, while the one
who grows it can have il in perfect
condition. In the matter of canned,
preserved and dried fruits the fruit
growers again have the advantage.
There is a feeling of satisfaction and
solid comfort in having a liberal
amount of homegrown and home
canned fruit on hand when winter
cuts short the fresh supply. The gro
Ger can not fill the want so well, nor
at so small cost.
Another point is that eating an
abundance of good fruit makes one
healthier than without it. The doc
tors are not needed so often where
fruits and vegetables are plenty as
where hog-and-hominy is the chief
diet. What a pity that many country
people who might live much better
than they do will continue to starve
themselves and their families for
these cheap and wholesome things
that are so easily provided.-Farm and
Ranch.

HERE AND THERE.

The corr crop of the country for
the present year is estimated at g.
500, 900. 900 bushels, or 1,250,000 tons.
But prices will not probably reach the
low figure this great crop might indi-
cate.
The heavy draft horse can not
stand hard work on a hot day nearly
so well as the medium-weight horse.
1t is a very easy job to kill a 1000
pound Norman when the mercury
stands at 100.
Sheep should be regularly sailed.
Rock salt placed where they can help
themselves at will is the best method
of dning this. If you can't give salt
to both sheep and cattle, let the cat
tie go without.
TO pass by a farm and behold a
flocs of IN breed of well-bred fowls
speaks volumes for the owner. A
flock of well-bred fowls constitutes a
silent advertisement of what its own
er il.
Corn thrown into a well-bred is
cash. The hog is a patented ma
chine. fully capable of taking care of
all the raw material set before it. It
is self-regulating and self-oiling, new
err gives and is perfectly reliable.
Many farmers are careful as to
varieties when buying seeds for the
garden, but for field crops plant any
seeds that may be handy. 1t is now
the season for seeding wheat, and
farmers should remember that the
yield of wheat depends largely upon
the variety and condition of the seed.
The number of farms in the Unit
ed States has increased steadily since
1850. the increase being four-fold.
The number for the ceusus year., 1900,
was 5.73s,657. There hes, however,
been a gradual decrease in the av-
erage number of acres per farm, be-
ing 1866. while in 1850 the average
wax 202.6.
The hay crop of fhe United States
ranges from $4,000, 900 to IS, 0 900
tons per pear. and brings to the farm
ers from $500, 900, 900 to $500. 600. 900.
according to the quality and price.
In nearly all of the southwestern
states hay making is attracting in.
creased attention with each success
sise season.
