Potato Rot ami Time of Digging.
The question of how soon blighted
potatoes should be dug has been fire.
quently asked the authors. and a Sc
ries of investigations has been under
taken at the Vermont station to ascer-
tain the proper time of digging. The
size of the plats and the extent of the
experiment are considered too limited
to admit of cancellations, but 1t ap-
pears that there was usually greater
loss from the earlier digging. So far.
as the Investigations go, they seem to
show that where there is danger of po-
tato rot it is best to delay the digging
for ten days or more after the tops
have died.-Exchange.

His Last Hope Realized.

[From the Sentinel, Gebo, Mont.l
In the first opening of Oklahoma to
settlers in 1889 the editor of this paper
was among the many seekers Of
fortune who made the bfg race one fine
day in April. During his travelling
about and afterwards his camping up
on his claim he encountered much bad
water, which, together with the severe
heat, gave him very severe diarrh9a,
which it seemed almost impossible to
check, and along in June the case be-
came so bad that he expected to die.
One day one of his neighbors brought
him Chamberlain's Collie. Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy as a last hope. A
big dose was given him while he was
rolling about on the ground in great
agony, and In few minutes the dose
was repeated. The good effect of the
medicine was soon noticed and within
an hour the patient was taking his first
sound sleep for a fortnight That one
little bottle worked complete cure,
and he can not help bu. feel grateful.

at hand suggests this item. For sale

Joseph Chamberlain, the English

nursery rhyme for great oratorical
hit. In one Of his speeches he was
criticising Lord Beaconsdeld and Lord

That il refrains from Interference in
