THE COLUMBIAN AND DEMOCRAT, BLOOMSBURG, COLUMBIA COUNTY, PA. Tho Sweet Potato. Growing sweet potato plants for tlio moro northern section of tho coun try has developed into quite- n Imsliies, nnd in nil our lnrgo towns mid cities tho hot-houses nro largely devotcti to raising sprouts nnd slips. Thoy nro started about tho first of April, and tlioir growtli will largely dono id upon tho condition of tho soil anil tho quali ty of tho seed planted. Thoforcinc-bjds nro thoroughly enriched with fertilizers, so as to insure a ropid growth that will enablo tho grower to put tho plants on tho market from tlio liith of May to tlio 1st of June. Tho way to plant is as follows : Gut tho potato length wise, and put pieces, cut sldo down, closo together, in tlio drill previously made, and cover to a depth of two or throo inches. Tlio soil will need watering with tepii water every few days, so that there will ho moisture enough for tho Biirouts to start and giow i but too much water must bo avoided, or tho potato will rot In n few weeks, if the potatoes planted wcro fresh, and not dried and shrivel led .up, tho sprouts will begin to show through tho soil, and In duo time com mence to grow moro or less rapidly according to the richness of the soil and tho caro given tliom. If they ,nro slow in growing, a littlo phosphate or guano dissolved in water may bo sprin klcd on them, but care should bo taken not to put too muuh, b'uico it is liable to burn tho leaves. Very often tho grower hurries his plants along so fast that thoy become too largo before the proper time for planting. Ono should look out for this, as medium-sized plants are best, and Bhould bo selected Many of our farmers at tho north pur chase every year from five hundred to ono thousand "plants, so as to raiso enough potatoes "for their own Juse." Usually we' would select alight, sandy soil, well enriched, nnd tho fertilizers thoroughly mixed with tho soil. Tho plants nro set in rows threo feet apart, and two feet in tlio rows, so that n cul tivator can run between and loosen up tho soil. IIoo tho young plants, but do not disturb tho running vines too much after thoy begin to cover tlio ground. It is best, however, to stop their taking root too much, ns it makes smaller potatoes in tho hill ; but when tho vines nro lifted, caro should be taken not to break, tliein where they havo taken root. SVo have grown sweet potatoes sev eral years with varying bucccss ; some years they would bo largo and sweet, nnd another season thoy would bo small nnd EOgny. Still, wo would nil vise any one interested in them to make tho trial with a hundred plants or so, and the experiment will bo novel and intersting to ono who has never grown them, while ho may succeed in raising a good crop of "Sweets." For north ern cultivation, the Early Golden has been found moro productive and valua ble than later maturing varieties. American Gardener. Barbed Wire Peaces. Thero is no class of people who nro subject to so much annoyance, and wo may add damage to their property, as tho farmer. Everybody acts as if they thought his premises a public park or cqinmons to bo .trespassed upon at pleasure ; and when they are mado to understand that tho crops of the farmer belong to. him, and that it is by these crops, secured by the sweat of his brow, ho makes his living and provides for his family in tho future lie is denounced for his meanness, and treated as if ho himself wcro doing somo unlawful act. But ho knows his rights and will defend them to the best of his ability, nnd among tho dif ferent methods at his command to establish them is the uso of tho barbed wire fence. Hunters object to this way of protecting his premises against trespassers moro decidedly than any body else ; but it is vory easy for proper persons to get, permission from tho owner to hunt upon his lands if ho has no. objection to their doing so ; but on tho contrary, if he wishes to pre servo his gamo for his own use, tho barbed fence is tho best means over devised for the purpose. A corre spondent of Forest and Stream, Mr. Albert Doiniell, of Biddeford, Maine, in roplyiug to another correspondent, who denounces this fence on this veiy ground, gives expression to these sen sible views ! "Although I am neither landowner nor hunter, thero are ono or two points which 1 desire to mako on this sub ject. First, I knoiV from n varied and extensive experience in the "West, that a plain wire1 fence even though it has a rail or'polc at the top, is not by any means ns effectual a foiieo as is the barbed wire fence. Cattle booh learn to crawl through a plain wire fenee,nd tho wires cannot bo strained tight enough to prevent this. Second, tho barbed wire fence is not, on tho whole, much , if any more dangerous than fences of- other kinds. In the neigh borhood where I resided in tho West, tho only cattle which Wcro over to my knowledge permanently injured by wire fences, were injured by plain wire fences, and I havo known many more injuries resulting from board aud rail fences and from stone walls, than from wire fences of any kind. Third, it is noticablo that tho opposition to the barbed wire fences comes not from tlio owners of tho fences, but from philan thropists who havo more pity for breeohy-oattlo-than for hard-wprkiug farmers, aud from gentlemen of rod' nnd gun, iriany of whom havo a deci ded proclivity for scouring premise where thoy are not wanted.'' In a little while longer tlio barbed wire fence will become so popular ns to bo generally preferred to all others, on tho grounds staled ; and many persons who were originally opposed to it bit terly, doubtless from what they con sidered; to bo tlio best of reasons, will bo surprised that they should havo been so' short-sighted, and will bo among tlio strongest advocates of it. Otrmantoion 2'elegraph. A Bridge Two Miles Long, A'anderbilt's new railroad is to con nect with tlio Lebanon Valley road at Harrisburg, near tho round hoime. Tho plan ot tho bridge over tho Susquc datum exhibits a continuous elevation from a point south of tho Northern Central railway to the point at the round house, where it will connect with the Philadelphia nnd Heading railroad of what can bo called a continuous bridge about two miles long. Tho first abutment will bo south of tho Northern Central railway tracks, tlio second pt tho Cumberland shore of tho river, wlienco tho bridge will bo carried by n series of piers to tho Harrisburg ehoro of tlio river, whore u third abutment will bo erected, from which tho track will pass at an elevation high enough to clear tho Pennsylvania rail road tnvoks, canal and PuicfM creek, to tho point on tho Heading railroad named, tho grade between tho point on tho Cumberland sido of iho river and the round house being not more .than ono foot to tho mile. Beea and Fruit. At tho lato annual meeting of tlio Northeastern Beekeepers Association, tho charge thai bees injure grapes wns ,1:,. ,.,! ...ill. ......... f..i:.... 'I'..... ini,iiMvii 1 1 1 1 muni: ii'uiliit ntu bills havo been introduced in tlio Cal ifornia Leulslaturc to forbid tlm keel mg of bees because of the damage thoy arc said to do to tho ripening grapes, Tho Northeastern beekeepers were unanimous in tlio opinion that honoy bees novcr puncture tho skin of tlio grape, though thoy frequent tho vines to suck tho juiuo of grapes al ready injured by birds or other insects. This it was claimed, lias been demon strated by carofnl tests. Mack anU nro tho chief mischief makers. That bees do not puncture urnpes, mav bo so, but that thoy do a gi eat deal of daniago to tho fruit by feeding on it cannot no denied. 1 lie writer has noticed bees last summer hunting over peaches on a tree to discovor where a flaw might be, that they might com mence on. Whether or no thoy first punctured peaches he could not de cide, but it is certain that they speed ily rendered worthless much lino fruit. Some of tlio peaches were so covered with bees that they had to be shaken off tieforo tho fruit eonld bo gathered. Bees should not bo kept where fruit growing is an object, ns they do much dnnngo to the crops. Girls on the Farm. A great deal has been said and writ ten concerning tho rights of farmer's boys but nothing about thu c'nls. It is a common tiling ior farmers to pay their son? fair wages for their work ; yet tho daughters do not receive it dol lar from month to mouth. Why should this difference exist between tlio farm er's girl nnd tho boy 1 The former is quito ns much entitled to n reward ior services as the latter. In truth, tho farmer's girl is frequently tho mom val uo of the two. She is expected in many cases to rise very early, get breakfast, clean up tho houso and pre pare tho other meals required through tho day, or if not, to at least largely aid in all these household duties, in addition she is looked upon by father, mother aud brother to entertain com pany to act the hostess, at least as a creditablo cccond to tho 'mother and whilo bIio may bo tho pride of the fam ily, and regarded as a sort of privi leged diameter, yet much is expected from her in ton thousand smaller fea tures of home life. Why, then, should she not be encouraged witli at least as much pay as the boy 1 In addition to that, the farm house should be mado ns attractive as possible witli a piano, plenty of books, newspapers and pic tures ; cultivate a tasto in the girls for flowers, etc. Thcso features, with a moderate anioiict of work, should pro duce' a happy and contented farm life. Democrat. How to ti:m. that Entis aki: Good Wo givo for what it is woith tho fol lowing from an exchange, on tho way to tell good eggs from bad ones: A good egg will sink in water. A boiled egg which is done will dry quickly on tho shell when taken from tho kettle. After an egg has laid a day or more tho shell comes off easily when boiled. A fresh egg has a lime-like surfacu to its shell. Stalo eggs arc glassy and smooth of shell. Eggs which havo been packed in lime look strained and show the ac tion of the. lime on tho surface Eggs packed in bran for a long time smell and taste musty. AVith the aid of the hands, a pieco of paper rolled in funnel-shape and held toward the light, tlio human cyo can look through an egg, shell and all. If an egg is clear and golden in ap pearance, when held to the light, it is good j if dark or spotted, it is bad. Tho badness of an egg can some times bo told by shaking near the holder's ear, but tho test is a danger ous one. Thin, shells are caused by a lack of gravel, etc., among tlio hens laying egtjs. Many devices have been tested to keep eggs fresh, but tlio less tinio an egg is kopt the better for the egg and tho ono that eats it. An Eoo Tkstkii. How to tell a good egg from a bad ono has been n puzzler to many a ono in tlio past. But according to a writer in an ex change, this knowledge will bo with in tlio reach of all in tlio future. He says : "A bad egg is never welcome, and nny slmplo devico that will quickly nnd satisfactorily detect tho quality of nn egg is of great service. Tho ordi nary system is to hold the egg in such a way that the hand cuts oil' all direct rays of light from tho eye, except thoso passing through tho egg. The egg may bo held towards tho sun, or better, toward the light from a lighted oandlo or lamp in a dark room. Thero is, however, a moro efficient and rapid mode. The apparatus consists of a tin cup I! inches high and i? incites in diameter, narrowed in at tho top to .hold an egg cudwiec. A small mirror is placed slantwise inside tho cup. 1 ho light passes through tho egg, and forms an image upon thu minor which is distinctly teen at tho sido opening. If tho interior of tho cup is ' painted black, the effect will bo better. The quality of eggs is determined by their degreo of clearness. A good .egg shows a clear, reddish, translucent light. Tho ease with which .testers can hi made and used, should insure good eggs for the talile, and fertilo ones for incubation. Altoona's Finances. The city of Altoona lias paid its ob ligations heretofore with tho exception of last July, when n portion of tho in terest duo was not paid. It is truo that tho taxes levied for tlio payment of the interest on tho pcriiiameui im provement loan is not sufficient to pay the interest, except asaboro tinted. These improvement bonds are bearing 7 per cent, interest, mid could not bo reunifi ed until 188:1. 1 ho councils commit tee on ordinance me now fraiiiiuir an ordinance to provido for tlio refunding of tlieso, bonds at -1 or 1J- per cent, in terest. The b-KHiio of $150,000 of old bonds in 187!) wns perfectly legal, and there is no question about the redemp tion of tho same.

A Tract of Land Now Worth $210,000 Once Sold for 70 Cents. A tract of 900 acres of land in Malianoy and Bvan townships, in Scliujlkill county, wns sold a few days iigo to Franklin II, Gowon, president ot tlio Kenning Uoal nnd iron com. Pnny, for $.M 0,001). 'Hie trnct had been lu tho Hiehlu family uinety-nlne years. Henry U. Brown, Esq., of un isiuwn, win) is counsel ior mo heirs of John Siumund Hiehle. tlio Original owner of tho tract, and as sisted in negotiating tho sale, has the original patents to the owner, bearing dato 1780. Tho warrants for tho sur vey of tho tract were issued two years earner. 1 ho patents nro two in mini her, each for four hundred ncres, but tho survey wns roughly mado and tho real nmomit oi land conveyed wns more tliau ono hundred acres tn ex ecs) of the amount stntcd in tho pat ents. In ono of tho latter the name, of tho patentee is spelled 'Bhiiyle," nnd in the other "Ruble," tho tracts being respectively desiunaled as "Acton" and "Milltown." Tho land is conveyed with a reservation to the state of a "fifth part of all tho gold and silver ore found thcieon for the uso of the commonwealth, to bo delivered at tho pit's month freo of nil charge. Tho trnct has a somewhat curious history. Although now so valuable, it wa, like many other tracts in tlio same region, repeatedly Bold for taxes during tho earlier days of tlio common wealth, although redeemed by the owners within the two years allowed for that purpose, being in tho mean time held by the coiintycoinuiisjioncis. On ono occasion thu amount of "back tax" for which it was sold was seventy eight cents. About the Queen Bee. There is an impression prevailing among the uninitiated that the queen of a hive leads off tho swarm, but, witli first issues at leant, it is seldom that tho queen comes forth from the hive until tlio greater part of tho hoes art on tho wing. Another erroneous idea in existence is that tho queen bee is tho first to alight upon a branch or a bush and that tho bees congregate about her, but tho reverse of this is a fact. When a swarm begins to issue, if the lice keeper will place himself on tlio shady side of the hive, and watch the stream of bees which pour forth like an army through a gateway, Iio may see tlio queen coino out, nnd if in clinod to prove our assertions ho may capture 'and cage her, and put her in ids pocket while ho wntehes tho pro ceedings of the bees. When the tlnong"is circling in the air ho may imagino that the bees are searching for her, and will' conclude that as thoy cannot find her they will return to tho hive ; but no, they will congregate near a convenient reo or bush, and make n great noise sufficient to attract tho attention of her majesty if she Were abroad, and then thev will alight and form a.' cluster and wait Ior. some minutes, to civo her an .opportunity ol joining .(hem. If now she bo taken to them," she will join tlio mass and all will bo .well: lr not. tlio. bees ntter a short time will disperso and return to tho hive. , Nathan Gofi', Esq., .of Clarksburg, West Virginia, an undo of . the Hon. Nathan Goff. congressman elect from the State, has for sixty years,, notwith standing his numerous-arid, engrossing business engagements, been a. volun teer distributer of the Scriptures. He thus concludes a letter to tho Amer ican Biblo Soeietv. IJuring the war I continued tlio dis tribution throughout Harrison County, and also gave a great many Bibles and Testaments to soldiers in tho Union army. From my earliest connection witli tho cause, whenever I have sent to tho Parent Society I have met with prompt and generous answers to my re quests. After tho war I began to sup ply the freed mi! n. At one time tho Society sent me a donation of seventy- five Iiibles for that purpose Jt is un derstood nil through this country that 1 keep on hand all kinds of Bibles and Testaments for sale and for gratuitous distribution to the poor, so there is hardly a day passes that I do not. dis tribute from one to twenty. As near as I can calanlate, I have distributed between 23.000 and 21,000 vol umes. Tho Reading Bnilroad is out of tlio hands of tho receivers. nMIXSTK.VTOK'S 30TICK.
