STORING SEED POTATOES.
How the Tubers May Be Kept in
Splendid Condition.

If potatoes intended for seed are
placed in pits and properly covered,
they will come out in the spring with
out sprout; they will also be as
firm as when placed in the pits. This
condition certainly indicates that no
vitality has been lost.
Every sprout that starts on a po-
tato and is broken off removes just
so much vitality from the seed.
find that it is necessary to dig the
pit more than six or eight inches deep.
That is just deep enough to get a
good, solid bottom, so that the pota-
toes can be shoveled up easily with
potato scoop. Fifty to 100 bushels
may be put into one pit safely.
When the pit is full cover with
about eight inches of straw, then put
on eight inches of dirt The third lay
er should be another layer of straw
and then another layer of dirt. If
the temperature falls below zero for
a length of time, cover the pit with
stable manure. By following this
method, says a correspondent of Prai-
RE Farmer, l never have any potatoes
that spoil or have been injured in
any way.

FARM WISDOM.

A debt enriches for a moment and
impoverishes for year.
Never explain-your friends do not
require it and your enemies will not
believe you anyway.
You can always tell a good farm
hand by the way he works when the
farmer has gone to town.
Folks who never do any more than
they get paid for, never get paid for
any more than they do.
There must be more of good than
evil in the world, or the good would
have been overcome ages ago.
Nine times out of ten, the fellow
who is let in on the ground floor falls
between the Orders and lands in the
cellar.
Let us not exaggerate about our
farming for the sake of making a
spread. If ours is the best farm and
we the best farmer, every one will
know it, and if not, all our talk about
it won't make it so.
The summer has been trying both
to the flesh and to the spirit. Try
letting go of things for a week or
so, and you will be surprised to find,
when you return from your vacation
how much the atmosphere has cleared.
1t is a good thing to ease up on the
collar little.
Lots of times, when the weather is
warm, we are apt to get into a sweat
over our work All right to sweat
outside-does a man good; but when
we get to sweating inside, we are apt
to boil over, and that is where the
mischief comes in. Let's keep as cool
as we can-inside. Then we shall
live longer and be happier.-Farm

HAULING HAY.
A Suggestion You Can Try When
Next Winters Snow Flies.

l presume every farmer who has
much hay to haul in the winter has
had plenty of experience in tipping
over with the load when the roads are
poor and the drifts deep, says a writer
in The Farmer At least this was
our experience until we learned OF
the idea of putting side runners on the
hay rack. Have used this on our
farm for some time and found it so
useful that 1 will try to explain for
the benefit of some who may not have
heard of the device before.
This device may be attached to any
hay rack, but l will give measure

called him to serve the colors on those
bleak Dakota prairies. Brant frowned
at the innocent words, reading them
over again with gloomy yes and an
exclamation of u~nmitigated disgust,
yet there was no escaping their plain
meaning. Trouble was undoubtedly
brewing among the Sioux, trouble in
which the Cheyennes, and probably
others also, were becoming involved
Every soldier patroling that long
northern border recognized the ap-
proach of some dire development,
some early coup of savagery.
Brant was not blind to all this, nor
to the necessity of having in readiness
selected bodies of seasoned troops, yet
it was not in soldier nature to refrain
from grumbling when the earliest de-
tail CHANGED to fall to him. But or
