SELECTION OF POTATOES

We have noticed in attending a
number Of county fairs, that some of
the people who have exhibited pota-
toes at these fairs have made very
little eOort toward selecting uniform
and desirable tubers. While farmers
are, in one sense, independent and
can raise any crop they wish, ii they
would get the best price for their
products they must raise the kind Of
products that buyers want. Large
buyers of potatoes, who are really the
people who make the market for po-
tatoes, prefer and will pay more for
smooth, medium sized, uniform pota-
toes than they will for large, rough
potatoes or potatoes not uniform in
size. They pay more for two rea-
sons: First, the smooth, uniform po-
tatoes can be peeled with much less
waste than can the other kim of pO-
tatoes: second, these smooun pota-
toes can be peeled much mo1s cheap
~, often with the pairing machine;
While with the rough, irregular pota-
toes it is impossible to use the par
ing machine without very great waste.
The grower who wishes 10 please
the customer sand thus get the top
price for his products, will be very
careful in selecting potatoes, espe-
clally for seed. In selecting potatoes
for seed another point besif uniform
ity and smoothness must oe consid-
cred; that is, one must know the gen
eral character of the type of potatoes
grown, and hold closely to that type
in his selections. Potatoes are likely
to run out" if the seed is not careful
~ selected. One Of the first indica-
lions OF running out is the slight tap
ering at the seed end; andsno potatoes
having a tendency to taper at the seed
end should be used for seed. It is
possible to maintain, and even to i'm
prove variety of potatoes grown in
locality, if careful attention is paid
to the selection of seed and the pre-
paratlon OF the SOFIA. D. Wilson,

There is a mission station on an
island in the Pacific ocean where
clergymen work among the aborigines.
Not long ago DR.. Snively, the head of
the mission, a married man with a
family, suddenly awakened to the fact
that there were four bachelors on the
island who could no longer be kept
there on account Of the loneliness of
their situation. True, they had one
another for company, but there were
no women except natives, and men
cannot expect to live without woman's
society.
There was mission consisting en-
tirely Of women on neighboring is
land, and Mrs. Snively advised her
husband to learn if wives could not be
imported from that station. MI. Jen-
kins, the principal one of the assistants,
had precipitated matters by resigning.

STORING cARRAGEs

Many farmers are under the impress
sion that cabbages will keep better if
stored with the root attached. Mr.. F.
Il. Gibbs, the market gardening expert
In a talk at the late Minnesota State
Fair, declared this to be a mistake:
the roots simply taking an additional
weight to handle, and taking I'D a
great deal Of room unnecessarily. The
proper method when storing is to cut
90 the roots smoothly, as when pre-
pairing the cabbage for the table, wrap
each head in an old newspaper, and
back in regular cabbage crates or lay
on shelves, not more than two heads
deep.

Mr.. jenkins was man Of forty, while
the other three assistants were young
sters. It was determined to make an
experiment of getting wives for the
bachelors of the mission and to begin
with Mr.. Jenkins. Mrs. Snlvely in
formed him as delicately as possible
that she would write to the lady super
1ntendent of the neighboring mission,
asking if any Of the young ladies at
work there could be induced to come
over and marry him. Mr.. jenkins
thought well of the proposition and
said that if the plan could be carried
out to his satisfaction he would with
draw his resignation.
Mrs. Snively sent letter by vessel
that ran irregularly between the is
lands. propounding the plan and re-
commencing Mr.. jenkins very highly
It so happened that the young women
missionaries had tired Of one anothers
exclusive society and no difficulty was
met in securing wife for Mr.. jenkins
Miss Amelia Edmonds, twenty-five and
comely, volun -eered to go and look
into the matter
It so happened that Mr.. Arnold, one
Of the younger of the assistants. was
at the dock when the lady arrived. He
had not seen white girl for a year
Indeed, so lonely was ne for woman's
society that he was meditating putting
in his resignation. He approached Miss
Edmonds, lifted his hat and asked If
he could be Of assistance to her. The
girl stammered, blushed and finally
told him that she had come to marry
Mr.. jenkins.
81 am MI. Jenkins" said Arnold.
The accusing angel who few up to
heavens chancery with the lie blushed
as he gave it in, and the recording
angel who wrote it down dropped a
tear on it and blotted it out for ever.
The next day jenkins told Snively
that ship had arrived from the wo-
mans mission and girl had come,
who had been married to Arnold He
didn't think this was treating him
fairly. Snively told him that there
must be some mistake, but he would
make inquiries, and If it were so he
would send for another girl. This salts
fed jenkins, and he agreed to wait
Snively sent at once for second girl.
Another Of the youngsters. Chippen-
dale, was very thick with Arnold, and
Arnold told him how he had fallen
heir to wife. The same day Chip
pendale heard Mrs. Snively tell her
husband that she had written for
another girl for jenkins. Chippendale
thought he could do what Arnold had
done, and the day the ship bearing
Miss Winterton arrived was on the
dock, introduced himself to her a. Mr..
Jenkins, and she disappeared In the
same manner as Miss Edmonds.
As soon as Jenkins heard Of the
second lady's arrival and marriage he
went in high dudgeon to Mr.. Snively
and protested against such treatment.
Already he said, two Of my wives
have been kidnapped"
Neither the law nor the church al
lows but one." replied the superfn-
tendent.

Suppose we try 1t again. This time
you'd better be on the dock when the
lady arrives"
"Tn do it !" snorted Jenkins.
The third lady who was sent for to
be the wife Of Mr.. Jenkins was Miss
Larkins. By this time Mr. swinton,
| now the only unmarried man on the
ISLAND except Jenkins, had heard that
