Potatoes That Rot.

If the potatoes in the cellar begin
to rot it is well to dispose of them as
soon as possible. None of them should
be kept over for the coming spring, as
they will then carry into the next crop
the mycellium that has been the cause
of the rot this year. Potato rot begins
in the form of blight in the field. Later
it shows itself in the tubers stored in
the cellar. Ignorance regarding this
has kept many farm infected from
year to year. as the farmer has carried
over infected seed from one year to an.
other. When rot has appeared there.
fore the only thing to do is to get rid
of the potatoes before they have be-
gun to show the disease. If the rot is
very bad, it will pay better to feed
The smallest Of the tubers to stock
rather than run the risk of having
them all rot in the bins. In the or.
dinary cellar it is rather difficult to
keep potatoes Of any kind, much less
those with the rot mycellium conceal.
ed within. In cold storage where the
temperature is kept at near the freez-
ing point there is less danger in try.
ing to hold them for some months. In
the ordinary cellar the temperature
frequently goes up to near the sev.
enties on warm winter days. and this
is especially 30 now that many farn
houses are heated by furnaces.

The New England town meeting 10
ever a source of anecdote, and one
that may bear repeating comes from
Wellesley, Mass, noted for q college
and, until his recent death, for one
Solomon Flagg, who attributed MS
fourscore healthy years to the fact
that he had always used tobacco anu
liuuor-if the liquor was good.
Flagg was town clerk, historian
and the traditional wit of town meet
ing. At one of these March gather
ings the management of the poor
farm was under criticism, and some
one had made bold to defend the
superintendent, Robinson by name,
who was charged with being intoler-
ably lazy.
Flagg listened intent1y, then clear
ed his throat and thus addressed the
chair: "Mr. Moderator-Our friend
who has taken his seat is an eloquent
gent, and there may be some truth III
his remarks. But, Mr.. Moderator, In
my opinion, pair of paper taps ON
the soles of Brother Robinson's shoes
would outwear leather patch on the
seat of his trousers"

CREMATION GROWS IN FAVOR.

Many Prefer This Method Of Disposal
of the Dead.
Germany possesses seven cremato-
rles, the total number Of cremations
performed at each during the year
1901 being 693. In Great Britain there
are seven crematories, in which. dur
ing the year 1901, 445 persons we're
cremated. Italy possesses twenty-five
crematories. but statistics as to the
number of persons upon whom crema-
ton was performed in 1901 Is lacking
in some of these. There are three Gre
matories in Switzerland, at one OIL
which 127 cremations were performed
in 1901. Sweden possesses two and
Denmark one. In Austria-Hungary
societies for the promotion OF crema-
ton continue to be formed, but the
practice of cremation has not yet been
legalized. In Madrid the right of Gre
nation has been conferred by a royal
decree, while even in Russia the gov
ernment proposes to issue decree In
favor of making cremation optional.
In France a large crematOrium is sttu-
ated in the far.famed cemetery of
Paris, Pere la Chaise, in which. since
it's opening, 2,299 bodies have been
cremated. In the United States are
twenty-six crematories, twenty-four OF
which are in operation. A larger num-
Der of persons are cremated yearly In
the United States than in any other
country. In Canada cremation is prac.
tically unknown as yet, the only crema-
%ori,,u in the country being one at

School for Cats,

This school does not exist in fairy
land, but in the midst OF the city Of
Paris.
Prof Bonnetty is very fond of cata
and has started school for them.
His pupils are generally stray cats
that no one wants. He takes them,
keeps them in a large room. and feeds
them well.
he does not Immediately begin to
teach them, but wathes them to form
some idea of their character.
He feeds them on bread and milk
and liver. 1t is surprising to see how
the most miserable, starved-looking
cat under his good treatment turns
into a beautiful. sleek pussy fit for
any lady's drawing room.
These cats are taught to jump
through hoops, over chairs, climb
ropes, etc. All these lessons are
taught by kindness. Prof. Bonnetty
never has to punish his pupils. He
depends on their affection and can 40
