Odds and Ends.

Women used their harpins q thou
sand years ago much in the same way
as they do today. That, at least, Is
the impression one gets from the anti
quities found during the last year at
the Silchester (England) excavations.
The most interesting discovery was the
building which formed apparently the
small altar, portions Of capitals and
bases, part of a large basin Of Purbcck
marble and sope singular pieces OF
metal.

Succeeding With Late Irish Potatoes.

succeeding WIN Luto Ari'h Hotaeoes.
Have been much interested in the
ideas presented in your paper relative
to Irish potato culture. AS l was
raised in Northern State where
"murphies" grown very extensively.
will be able to give some idea OF the
industry as carried on there. In many
places the Irish potato forms the bulk
of farmers crop, as cotton does here.
here.
I notice your correspondent last
week, and others I have read, say to
let potatoes turn green and sprout
before planting. I think this is a mis-
take, for it is unnatural for this green
condition to exist. 1t only comes as
a result Of exposure to light, which
an Irish potato should not be sub
jected to at any time.
1 am reminded Of the way grocers
in the South expose potatoes in their
stores, until they turn green and are
strong and unfit for food. Keep Irish
potatoes in the dark.
To sprout Irish potatoes before plant
ing is certain to cause many to fail to
grow. This is the reason your cor
respondent Of last week says to allow
for a failure of one-half to grow.
If the seed is good and ground in
good condition. there is no reason why
late potatoes should not do nearly, If
not quite, as well as early ones.
For q late crop the late varieties
should be planted, as early varieties
planted late will not do well, neither
will late ones planted early.
! Attention to few points will in
sure plenty Of Irish potatoes In the
South, and with the same convenience
for storing them as used in the North,
the South need not continually pay
big prices for Northern seed. Every
farm house at least should have, q
good, roomy cellar. And cellar Is so
easy to make in this climate where
frost is not SO severe and searching.
In my fathers cellar we often found
4. necessary to put up heater to
save out fruit and vegetables from
freezing, and the walls were Of stone
q foot thick, too. If it Is desired, l
will give some further points on Irish
potato culture, which were picked up
in it's natural element, the sandy fields

The representatives OF fertilizer
mills who were here last week seem
to be very much pleased with the out
look. 1t was reported unofficially that
suits now pending in the courts Will
be suspended. pending definite action
by the fertilizer board, which is 10
meet here in November, and will then
give the mills another hearing. The
law requires the fertilizers to have
certain definite quantities Of chemi.
calls. In some parts Of the State the
board has found fertilizers which fall
below the requirements and the SELL
ers have been made the defendants
in legal action. The matter was ar
gued before representatives Of the
board and the mill managers were
told that there would be anothe meet
ing of the board. The fertilizer mills
disavow any intention to sell impure
or worthless fertilizers and declare
that they want the law enforced. but
they argue that the law is imperfect.
