HOUSE, FARM ASH GARDEN.

STOKING VEGETABLES.

Potatoes

should be stored as-.- rapidly as possible now. All experienced planters know that each frosty night detracts from the juices of this vegetable, and also deteriorates its keeping propensities. Dig on a bright day—never on wet the soil that adheres tends to decay. Store every day the potatoes dug, or else protect with boards.

It is said that a pint, of slacked iime scattered over a barrel of potatoes will effectually destroy any tendency to rot. We have never tried it, but, the remedy is simple and with the reach of all. Immense crops of potatoes are raised in these Northern States. New Hampshire and Vermont raise millions of bushels, and yei the price of good eating potatoes 's high and the snpplv small. Why' .s it'? The reason is obvious. Starch mills abound in these States. Two mi-?Jio!«s of California potatoes can be wised where one of rarer kinds can grmv. There is always a market for uhe coarser kinds direct from the ••elds. itand-

The. crop is sure—the pay at. -so our farmers will not culti

vate those, which tempi tiie appetite, indeed, many a farmer's family does \v what a good potato i*, and •.7-mld say to our early Blues, Cuscos, and .Harrisons, ••Small potatoes ami 'AjW'ffi a- jj/.So, though the harvest is bounteous this year, the supply of eating potatoes will still be at "uinoiis prices."

Carrots and beets should be stored a.way now, while their juices are in their prime. They are kept best in .uycrs of dry sand, covering a thick kvyor over the top of the box. Stored iu litis way, all their freshness is retained. Though a little

:et us observe that:, if the top of a carrot cut off at this season, or later, is placed in a. saucer of water, with a few liits of charcoal to sweeten it, it will :orm a radiated feathery plan bv no •.neans unworthj' to grace a ladyV In'^e.

tiuminating animals gather their foot! •'apidly, give it a few cuts with the "eeth and swallow it,. It goes to an interior receptacle where it is mois".ened this is very essential if io be: dry hay. When the animal has tilled nimself, lie thoroughly masticates the i'Kid thus stowed away in his stom«ch, raising it cud by cud. "When a portion is completely masticated, iu passes to another receptacle, and the process of digestion, goes on. Thus :i ox, if left to himself, will'raise and ?'iastic: te all h.is food thus stowed aw.ny in his stomach/ If he is pushed1 and worked hard, and does not have, time to masticate, he falls off in tles'u, h's health i: poor, and indigestion incomplete.

The horse, on trie contrary, hov/cv-' i-:", in much of :i hurry as he may he. lait'.t ma.stiqatc-.each mouthful lvforo 'io swiUlo.ws.'ijk ,. A hungry ox lei iua meadow will till himself iu -wen vy minutes, while a horse would wan:, at, least an hour and twenty minutes lake the same amount ot grass. Toe ox, deer, sheep, goat, chamois! and rabbit being the natural prey of! ferocious beasts, are endowed with: the extra stomach in which hastily to stow away the food without mastication. This may, perhaps, be regard-1 ed as a wise provision of nature, enalling them to sally forth where the. food is plenty, and in a short time fill themselves and retire to a place of safety to ruminate their food at their leifiure.

THE COKN CROP.—While

the re

ports of the small grains in different localities of the United States arc quite variable, the prospects of the orn crop arc everywhere good. Taking the whole country together, it is probable that there has not been such corn season in the last fifty years as the present. And never was a crop if corn brought forward to its present condition in so short a time. Up to the last of June the crop was very backward, not half knee-high, and looked yellow and sickly, but then it -tarted and never ceased its rapid growth, day or night, until it was iu the end out of danger from frost. In the Southern States the crop is immense, and in many places has been safely harvested. A large supply ol hogs and cattle for fattening will be required.

Three thieves in New York last week drove off a wagon containing fourteen trunks, which, were standing in front of a I'road way store. The trunks enclosed §0.000 worth of clothing, and the thieves made good their escape with the booty.

The cattle disease has recently hvokui out with violence near St. Lom

SNOW fell in Baltimore a few da}7s Ago to the depth of four inches.

More Variety»in Food Wanted. The farmer raises food for other people, but oftentimes does not cater wisely for himself. There is much just reflection upon farm life in that

old miserly maxim "Sell what you can what you cannot sell, eat what you cannot eat, give to the pigs." We do not believe thrift lies in this direction. The producers of food are entitled to the best their farms afford, and in the long run this is economy. One secret of the strong drift of our.

pe,Vcr.

box.

farming population toward the city, lies in the farmer's table. Children crave a variety of good, wholesome AIUL food, and enough of it, and any stint) .! of it is certain to be remembered -BILL.

when they come to shift for themselves. The citizen always has a va-1 riety of food within Ins reach, and -nothing but poverty prevents him from enjoying all that the farm sends to market, He has all the fruits and vegetables iu their season, and in the best condition iu which, he can get them. lie has Jisli and ilesh in great variety, and his appetite is never cloyed. Ijiit up oil the farm, where the best of everything is produced, salted meat's are tuo often the staple provisions the year round, and corn meal cooked in .-:ome form is a perpetual jfeast. Now, there is no reason in the world why the fanner should not' be tin best fed man in the cominunity. lie ought" to be, as an adver-l tisemcnl of his business. A tailor, of all men. can not afford to dress
