ANATOMY OF AN OYSTER.
Ths Bivalvr'l Organs Are NumsreUs
and It's Heart quite HumAnifks.

rhs BivaIvs's Organs Are NumsroUs
and Irs Heart quite HumAnifks.
Every oyster has mouth, heart,
ly devised little intestines and other
organs necessary organs, such as
would be handy to a living, moving
intelligent creature. The mouth is at
the end OF the shell, near the hinge and
adjoining the toothed portion OF the
oysters pearly covering. This tiny lit
tie apology Of a mouth Is oval In shape,
and. although hardly visible to one un-
used to making such anatomical exam
nations, 1t cam be easily discovered by
gently pushing bodkin or piece OF
blunt, smooth wire along the surface
Of the locality mentioned.
When the mouth Is at last located,
you can thrust your instrument through
between the delicate lips and consid-
cradle distance toward the stomach
without causing the oyster the least
pain whatever. From this mouth there
is OF course a miniature canal leading
to the stomach. Food passes from this
canal to the stomach and from the lat
ter organ into the intestines just as
readily as though the little bivalve
were as large as an elephant or rhi-
noceros.
Remove the shell (this operation is
rather rough on the oyster, but can be
done in a comparatively painless man.
ner by an expert. and you will see the
crescent, which lies just over the so
called heart. This half moon space is
the oysters pericardium. Within is
the true heart, the pulsations Of which
can be readily seen without the aid Of
a glass. The heart Is very humanlike,
made Of two parts, one of which re-
ceives the blood from the gills through
a network of real blood vessels; the
other portion contracts and drives the
blood out through the body. The other
organs OF an oysters anatomy are all
In their proper places and perform
their several functions.

POTATOES THAT ROT.
It Is Not Only Advisable, But Abso-
luteIy Necessary, to Dispose of
Them Mt Once.

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 a farm infected from
year to year, as the farmer has carried
over infected seed from n year to
another. When rot has appeared
therefore, the only thing to do is to
get rid of the potatoes before they
have begun to show the disease. II
the rot is very bad, it will pay better
to feed the smallest Of the tubers to
stock rather than run the risk OF hay
ing them all rot in the bins. In the
ordinary cellar it is rather difficult to
keep potatoes of any kind, much less
those with the rot mycellium con
cealed within. In cold storage where
the temperature is kept at near the
freezing point there is less danger in
trying to hold them for some months
In the ordinary cellar the temperature
frequently goes up to near the sew
enties on warm winter days, and this
is especially so now that many farm
houses are heated by furnaces.-Farm
ers' Review.
