When I first came to Washington I went to a hotel, with my wife loaving my children at home and at school. I kept up my house at home, and my ex- {mnuuu there wore little less than if T had been there. My hotel expenses includ- ing washing and the outrageous oxtras one always finds on his bills, were nover less than $300 a month. My expenses at home were about haif as much; so, you see, I could not stand that. The wext winter I went to a boarding-house and left my family at home. Of course I had to have a parlor and bedroom. I paid 2100 a month at the boarding-house. But I did not live; it was simply a miserable existence. A boarding-house table may give good, well-cooked food, but you are obliged to meet and be polite to people you do not care for, whom you detest, in fact. Then I was deprived of my wife's company, which, strange as it may scem, 1still appreciato, Well, that year, by close economy and many deprivations, I came out about even, The next year I hired rooms and had my meals sent in from a restaurant.

What I shall do this winter heaven only knows. I suppose I must go back to the boarding house. A con- gressman’s life is but a dog’, life after |all.” And my friend said nothing but truth.

The children are mighty happy now, picking chinkapins and gathéring chestnuts, and walnuts, and maypops, and black haws, and musca- dines. ‘Possums are gotting ripe, too, and sweet potatoes, and young squirrels, "and fall app! | keeps the little chaps busy investigating all these good things.

So it is a fair thing all round. The autumn of the blessed Southren land is not like the autumn of old England, where the | poets lived.

All of them are qu X pensive, and farmers who raise but small patches of potat res ean not afford to pur. chase them. It is difficult to construct a potato-digger that will be adapted to all kinds of soil. One that is a great success in soil that is chiefly composed of sand | may prove to be a complete failure in s0il that contains much clay. No potato- digger works wellin ground that is quite moist. It is hard to construct one that will dig all kinds of potatoes equally well. The tubers of some varicties are close to- gether in the hill, while those of others | are widely scattered. Some are attached to the stalks so strongly that they are generally drawn'up by them when they are | pulled, while others romain in the ground. Several implenients have been introduced during the past fow years that render the labBr performed more easy than when it was all done with the common hoe. Among these implements are the plow having rods attached to the sides, the pronged hoe, and digging fork. Even | with the aid of these a Jarge amount of hard manual labor is required to harvest a crop of potatoes, Clean culture during the growing season will always result in greatly reducing the amount of work re quired to harvest acrop of potatoes. The sreater amount of weeds and grass in a field of potatoes the greater will be the | labor required to harvest a crop. It is not best to allow potatoes to re- main long 1 the ground after they are ripe. They should be dug beforo the | heavy fall rains occur. If the ground in which potatoes grew becomes thoroughly soaked with water, it is difficult to dig | and store the tubers so that they will be | in a presentable condition, Considerable s0il will remain_on th m and will injure theirs looks. It will also be likely to cause them to decay. The tubers should be exposed to the sun as short a time as possible. 1f they are quite dnml; when they are taken from the ground, they should remain in the sun long enough to become dry. Long exposure to the light and heat of the sun_injures the potatoes very greatly. If expused sufliciently long, a chemical change is produced that renders them unfit for use. Their color becomes changed to green, the starch undergoes a transformation, and the flesh loses its crispness and fine flavor. All the fine qualities of potatoes are best pre- served by placing the tubers in a place | that is entirely dark as soon as they are taken from the soil. If arrangements are { made to preserve the same amount of | moisture they had when they were in the place where they grew, they may be kept for months and still possess all the excel- lent qualites they had when they were first dug. For family use it is recom- mended to place themin barrels and co rer | the top with u thick turf of grass that will [ fit tightly. The barrels should be put in a cool cellar and raised a few inches from the ground. This arrangement will keep the tubers cool, moist, and in darkness, and allow a sufficient circulation of air among them It also prevents the tubers from sprouting. It is well to preserve not only eating but seed potatoes in this way. If so kept, the eyes will be strong at planting time in the | spring. It is not practical to preserve large atoes quantities of potatoes in this way. An attempt should be made, however, to secure about the same conditions in u simpler manner. A good cellar is the best place for storing potatoes. 1t should be rendered dark for the reasons before given. Its temperature should be kept | but little above the freezing point. A low temperature will cause the tubers to freeze, when they are ruined. A tempo- | rature above 50 degrees will cause them | to sprout and induce rotting. An average degree of moisture is beneficial for keep- ing potatoes. The air should not be so moist that the water will collect on the surface of the tubers. the tubers will become wilted or shrivel- ed, will lose their crispness and shrink in weight. The loss in weight is often 25 per cent between the time of digging in | the fall and the time of selling in the spring. As potatoes are uow gencrally sold by weight this loss is a heavy one for farmers. If the bottom of the cellar is composed of sand er is covered with cement the potatoes may be placed direct- ly en it. If, however, there is any danger of water standing on it even for a short time, it is advisable to put the potatoos in bins slightly elevated from the ground. Properly-constructed bins will keep the potatoes from coming in contact with water and allow acirculation of air through them. Board petitioners should be used to separate different varieties, Tt is not adviseable to put very small, scabby, deformed, cut, bruised, or diseased pota- toes in a cellar, unless with a view of keeping them to feed to stock during the winter. They should be sorted from the good tubers at digging time and fed to animals, Their presence with the market- able tubers will injure their appearance, dimmish their vaiue, and render them linble to decay. — A COabbage Farm. Mr Robert Birch has a farm in the vicinity of Rochester, N. Y., which is en tirely devoted to raising cabbages, A local paper says the farm corsists of only twenty-seven acres, and the occupant, after renting it some years for 8600 a year, bought it fc 500, or about $240 per acre. Fifteen acres are occupicd with early cabbages, which are more profitable than late ones. The latest cabbages are off in September, when the owner sows rye for green crops, spreads manure in winter, and in spring all is plowed thor. oughly under, for the beuefit of the com ing cabbages.

Upon the preparation of land for wheat very largeiy depends the quantity of seed necessary to be sown, 1f poorly prepar- ed, it 58 a safo venture to say two bush- els to the acre will not be found to be too much when harvest comes arovnd. With How Much Se a grade better preparation one and a-half bushels may sufti If reasonably well, a peck less may do. If land adapted to wheat growing is well prepared, a bushel of seed to the acreis amply suffi t. But if lan of this character is thoroughly well prepared by plowing, harrowing and rolling, and is well drained naturally or artificially, a half bushel or less of seed is sufficient to produce double the average yield in bushels per acre annually gpown in the United States. Some, perhaps most persous, will dispute this, Lot us see. We havo justshelled out th heads of wheat, two of fairly good size and one small one and they contain 111 grains, and averago of 87 grains each, or and in o of thirty-seven fold the quantity sown to produce the 111 grains, supposing that cach grain sown matured an average of only one stalk or head. But this would be counted a very small rato of increase jg the number of stalks, An examination of a reasonably fair crop of wheat whould show not less than an aver age of two and a half stalks to each ma- tured stool, and this on fields where o e to one and a-half bushels of seed to the acre had been sown. But the land had been *‘thoroughly well pr and Shalf bushel of seed been sown to the acre, it is reasonable, and a rule would be found so in fact, to expect the matured stools would have not less than an aver age of five stalks bearing five heads to cach stool and the average number of graing to each not less than 37, the number we have just shelled out, This yod | should have beside some day | on one acre of [ tainly do not_apy {didn’t_you Marn a trade whon you were |a boy j" ; And shure 11| ubborn little brute,” he said, when the | of June, and brings 8500 or 8600 per ncre, !wuul-l give one hundred and eighty-five outery; | having stood in rowsa foot and a half by | fold of produce, or | bushels produced from the half bushel sown to produce it | But everyone knows that under the most the street, [Theso do not bring so much per acre, | favoring circumstauces not all the wheat sown in any season grows and matures FURNITUREI | seed.
