Reaping Sweet Potatoes.
Referring lo the keeping of sweet
potatoes, I am convinced, after two
years experience, that the practice I
have adopted is reliable and as near
perfection as any, considering the ease
of adaptation and execution. I never
dig until the frost begins to bite the
vines, foi to dig earlier will be lo lose
the best growth in an average season.
If the land is wet enough to have the
tubers stuck with mud. I prefer waiting
until even after frost, until it is dryer,
as from dry dirt they come out in a
much more sightly condition.
When digging commences, drive
four boards where you wish to winter
them the height you wish the bank
in such a way as lo form a square
funnel or flue. Place around them a
i cold he could not sing."
Poor, unfortunate Ihttrachian! In what a
sad plight ho must have been. And yet hia
misfortune was one that often befalls singers.
Mnny a once tuneful voice among those who
belong to the “genus homo " is utterly spoiled
by " cold in the head,'’ or on the lungs, or both
, , r . . ,t. nf combined. For the above mentioned “croalt-

Catarrh Remedy and Dr. Pierce’s Golden Med
ical Discovery, both of which are sold by
druggists.
Dr. Sage’s Catarrh Remedy cures the worst
cases of Catarrh in the Head, no matter of
how long standing, while for all laryngeal,
bronchial, throat ami lung affections, llr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is posi

cover them, say, with the thickness of
three inches of pine straw, and after
the sun is up in the morning remove
the straw and sun again, and continue
this for several consecutive days, when
you may place the straw upon them
and coter them with dirt, leaving the
top of the flue open, and if you will
now place a short course ot hoards of
a broad piece of plank in such a wa\
as to turn off the rain and snow, you
may leave the rest to kind providence,
feeling assured that He will keep them
for you until the following April, when
He will call upon you to take them
out ot their winter quarters and put
them in a cool place.
The especial objects to be attained
are: Use pine straw to cover them
with because they do not absorb
dampness so readily as ether materials,
and will not undergo heating or fer
menting. They must be aired and
sunned to dry the dampness and dts
sipate as far as possible all the
foreign matters and grasses deposited
with them. The flue must always be
kept open as a means of escape for
impurities, gases and heat that con
tinue to generate, especially at the
bottom of the pile, thus tending to an
even temperature within.
I regard the potato crop as one of
prime importance, but not as a money
crop. The price they command will |
not justify the extra expense of dig
ging and marketing, but for almost all
kinds of meat hogs, the hogs them
selves to perform the labor of rooting
them up, it is best to plant in two
pl-is of ground, in seperate inclosures.
After one patch has been exhausted,
the hogs may be turned into the other,
allowing the stock "hunch” to glean
after them. I am satisfied that meat
fattened in this way, and with the
feeding of a small amount of corn, is
the cheapest I can raise, The pas
turage of a corn and pea field and a
good sized potato patch is the best
"mast” for hogs I know of.—Dixie
Farmer.
To Cure theYaste for Liquor.
A corresponent of the New York
Sun,in answer to the question, ‘‘Can
any one give me a cure for drunken
ness?” says:
•‘Indulgence in spirits, after a while
which is longer or shorter,according
to the constitution of the person—pro
duces inflamation, irritation and fever
of the stomach, hence the craving for
drink; and the greater the fever, the
greater the craving. As spirits also
act upon the nervous system and on
the brain, the nervous system becomes
impaired and the brain weakened.
Who can deny that a person ailing in
these several ways is laboring under a
serious disease* He has then no will
power to exercise, because the seat of
the will is in the nerve centres, and
when these are impaired or destroyed,
so is also the will power.
“Here is the cure: Let the person
have within his reach a vial of the best
tincture of peruvian bark and when
the craving for liquor comes on let
him take a teaspuonful of the tincture
every two hours. In a few days the
taste for liquor is destroyed, and de
stroyed while indulging in it, for tinct
ure ot Peruvian hark is spirits into
which has been drawn all the sub
stance of peruvian hark. It is to he
found in every drug store, but it should
be ot the very best.
"Peruvian bark is a tonic. It is also
the best, if not the only cure known
for fever. It is from this bark that
quinmejis extracted, and, moreover, it is
anti-pcriodic. It is by these three
agencies that n destroys the craving
for liquor. Any one wishing to be
cured of this ailment, can be, in the
way I have described, but there are
few drunkards, indeed, who wish to be
cured.”
