In Old New York.

1t is the custom of the New York
papers to sheer at the unsophisticated
doings of the people in other parts OF
the country. Apparently, however.
Judging from the revelations made in
the evidence of Col. Mann in the libel
case now on trial, many of the most
prominent and wealthy men of the
metropolis were the easiest kinds OF
easy marks for parties who merely
proposed to write them up favorably
or unfavorably. according as sAey paid
out their cash, generously or not. 1t
is marvellous TO read how easy it was
to get large sums of money ostensibly
as loans or in return for certificates
of stock whose value bore no proper
proportion to the money paid out.
That the leaders of New York society
should have been held up in this way
argues iii for their common sense. and
al the same time shows the total lack
of real value to the utterances Of the
so-calIed society journal-Pittsburg

a.,n.d Birds Did Well.

"afajmed birds show remarkable IN
telligence in getting food for them
selves" said a naturalist.
II once found in my garden blue
bird that a Stone had wounded badly.
The poor little creature could neither
WALL nor fly. put it in cucumber
frame and fed 1t regularly, but sup

xeIf with Ieaves-only its small eyes
wonId be visible. Then, when ny
aIiehted somewhere near-swooD, the
bluebird's head and neck would dart
from the covering Of leaves and the
Az would be devoured.
"a 6ach with broken wing lived
high all one summer in my garden at
the expense of the spiders. 1t pillaged
,beir webs. Il made round OF some
twenty webs day and fattened on
the contents of those flmy larders-"

EARLY POTATO FARMING

Seed potatoes should not be cut for
any considerable time before planting.
If it becomes necessary to delay plant
ing for some time after potatoes are
cut. the cut pieces should be busted
with plaster and spread out in mod
erately moist cool place. At least they
should not be allowed to heat, neither
must they be allowed to become dry.
If planting is done very early in the
spring the ridges may be permitted to
remain for ten days to two weeks be-
fore narrowing down. If planting is
done somewhat late the ridges should
be narrowed within one week after
planting. In case of the early planting
there is usually enough moisture pres
ent so that the ridging may temporarily
prove a benefit by enabling the soil to
become warm. In case of the late
planting all the moisture should be con-
served, and this is best done by level
ing the ridges. Where the soil is nat
urally too wet the ridges may be benefi-
cial in that they hasten evaporation
and the consequent drying of the soil.

The amount Of dry matter in sugar

TO do with the quality. The value of q
root crop does not depend upon the pro-
portion OF dry matter contained, rs it
may be desirable TO have the water

EARLY SEEDING OF LAWNS.

For lawn SOW blue grass seed at
the rate of three bushels per acre. 1t
may cost more in the sping per bushel
for good seed, according to the supply
and demand, as it is high in price dur
ing some seasons. 1t is light, weighing
about fourteen pounds per Dushel. 1t
is the best grass for lawn. and plenty
of seed should be used. No lawn will
prove satisfactory if new unless the
ground has been well prepared. Plow
the land and level it fine with Il rake.
Wood ashes will always give excellent
results. The kinds of grass depend
upon the nature of the soil, but the best
lawns are secured when the land is
first thoroughly prepared. Do not NOW
the grass too often or too close to the
ground the first season. Give it an OPP
portunity to grow and become well es-
