CABBAGE WO inf.
Cabbage worms cannot stand the smell of j
pennyroyal. The writer of this has a 1
square of very fine cabbage in his garden. :
and shortly after the wet-spelT of weather j
the last month commenced, the worms be
gan to play havoc amongst them. Pennv- j
royal was gathered, and scattered plenti
fully over the cabbage heads, and the work I
of destruction ceased. Ido not know who- <
ther this is anew remedy or not ; it is a>
very simple and effectual'one*—at least it
has proved effectual with me, and 1 would’
recommend others to try it.

METHOD OP KEEPING SWEET
POTATOES.
Some time last fall, as well as I now re- !
collect one of your Virginia correspondents i
asking for information on the subject of keep- j
ing sweet, potatoes through the winter ; and
perhaps the writer was desirous to obtain
Virginia practice ; but if our Georgia plan
should not be altogether applicable to your
region, (I know of no reason why it should
not be,) may derive |
some useful hints therefrom ; and though ll
give our plan too lato for any practical use
the present season, it will, if at all, l>e of I
service the coming one. There are various j
inodes adopted in Georgia for saving pota
toes, but as the one I practice,, in common!
with many others, has always been so suc
cessful, I shall describe that only. As j
soon as the frost slightly.effects the potatoe j
vines in the falta(about the middle of Oeto- I
ber here,) I begin to make preparations for
d'oß' n g > al *d by the time the vines become
thoroughly killed, I am prepared for the
harvest. I select an elevated piece of ground
and throwing up circular mounds, or hills,
twelve or fifteen inches above the common [
surface, the diameter of which should be a
bout ten feet, to contain sixty bushels of po
tatoes. The situation and! elevation of hills I
are objects of importance, to prevent the j
possibility of the potatoes getting wet. In I
order to make the potatoes lie on the hill
the better, the edges should bo somewhat
elevated by drawing the earth from the cen
tre, giving it slightly the appearance of a
bowl. Common pine heart, hoards are now
placed on the earth radiating from the cen
tre to the circumference of the hill; and on
these a layer one foot, thick of dry pine
leaves. The hill being now ready to re
ceive the potatoes, I select dry, mild wea
ther, commence digging in the morning and
stop time enough in the afternoon to haul
up all during the day ; for if left out at
night, the frost, if any, would injure them.
If possible, the hills should be filled and
completed the same day, but if'not, thepo
tatoes should be well covered with straw to
protect them at night, and uncovered next
mornings When the pile becomes two or
three feet high, place a pole'horizontally
across,, of sufficient length to pass entirely
through the hill. A better ventilator would
be an oblong box, four or five inches square,
with several auger holes in it. The pota
toes may now be put on, till the pile is about
five feet high, and left in a conical form.
Next, procure dry leaves and lay them all
over the potatoes, at least six inches thick.
Pine heart boards like those used! at the bot
tom of the potatoes, are now placed over
the straw, and a covering of earth six or
eight inches thick, is put over the whole,
and patted smooth w ith.a spade.. A small
aperture should be left at the top of the hill,
to assist in ventilation ; or a short oblong
box may be inserted! down to the potatoes,
and the earth drawn nicely up ta it. If a
pole is used as the horizontal ventilator, the
earth should be remove! from below it,
where it projects from the hill. All the ap
ertures should be left open, fora few days
after the operation is finished, and then on
ly closed during severe weather, with a
handful of pine leaves. Sheltersshould be
erected over the hills to exclude the rain
entirely. I consider it important to per
form the whole business in drv weather.
