The Potato fn Its Native Country,
An English gentleman who long re-
sided in Eonili obtained from different |
sons the following facts in relation |
to the way potatoes are ounltivated '
there ;
in the potato fislds when young, and
are now employed on the milway.
of thom, Jose Maria Toros, is from the
island of Chiloe (south latitude forty.
three). Ho thinks there are no good
tatoes Gut of his own country, and 1
opinion. , For, nnhke the rest of Chili,
the potato is there tha staple article of
food, consequently more attention is
paid to the selecting of good varieties
and to tha best modes of cooking. He
said: ** Here in the North the people
don't know what potatoes are. They
neither know how to cook them nar
how to eat fhe =, and the potatoes are
not so goad asin my country. There
you have some! ie ‘worth oating- po-
tatoos so mealy that you can't boil them
for breaking them to pieces.” Potatoes
are reasted inthe ashpits in wood ashes,
They are always ready there, and if a
friond comes in he is offered a hot po-
tato out of the ash pit, with salt or a
piece of dried fish. They are white
and flonry, and fall to pieces when the
roasted crust is taken off. In fact,
Chilo is the Ireland of Chili as regards
potatoes. Josa did not know puch
about their cultivation, but he had
never heard of any disease attacking
them. Chiloe is very rainy. Indead 1t
rains almost emtinnouslr there, while
tho greater part of the rest of Chili
is dry. Tho varisiies grown there
thrive with. ran, and suf
fer from the want of it. Sead taken
from Chiloe onght to sait Ireland and
the west of Seotiand aud England. The
following is the mode of enltivation in
the Shuey or large kitchen garden
The plat of gional selected for pota
toes is sown with barley in March or
April as ily as the previous crop has
been harvested. The barley grows till
Angust, when it is in the ear. The ears
are then ont off and sold for feeding
horses, cows and pigs. The long green
stubble 13 plowed or dug into the
ground, where it scon rots and serves
a8 manure. In October the ground is
prepared for planting. The seed is
lantod at a depth of from eight to ten
aches below the surface in rows one
“vam” apart (thirty-thre. inches)
Howxéver, the seeds are 10t pat in
singly, but in groups of four, and the
distance between the groups is
also one “vara.” Some people put four
small potatoes in each group, but the
newer improved method is to pat in
four sets of one eye each, cut from the
one or two principal eyes of large po-
tatoes. If there are any small eyes
in the sats they are destroyed to pre
vent them from growing. After the
lasts are well through the ground they
sre dug all around, and the ground thor.
oughly loosened. Some tim 10 after, the
earth is hoed up about them into round
piles like big mole hills, and when
farther grown they get another hoeing
up. Iam assured that immense crops
are procured by this method —as muah
as eighteen tons per English acre—
mostly of large po’atoes. The rotation in-
eludes maize, Frevoh be.ns, pumpkins,

bean told several times that you always

Night Scenes In a New York Market.
Doseribing tho famous Washin ngton
market a New York correspondent says:
The regular market closes at 2 eo k
in the afterncon, in order that the par-
ties ma rest for the next day's traffic.
The stalls are placed in the care of a
watchman, each of whom serves a score
of emplovers and receives enough to
pay him S20 per week. By dark the
entire market is deserted, bat toward |
10 o'clock sigrs of business reappear
and Ly midnight the preparation is in |
full force. The market is ablaze with
gasiighit. Here at the wholesales meat |
stalls one may see the huge wagons
loaded with quarters of beef, which are
gnickly hung vp oun appropriate hooke,
Each qnarter is marked with its owner's
initisds, and a commission of ten per
cent. is charged. About 500 quarters
of heef are here sold daily. There, too,
are the long rows of slaughtered swine
glistening | in the gaslight like an array
of ghos's, while on either side car:
ecasses of mutton stand the stalls
These are fresh from the slaughter
houses, and will be gone before next
day at 12 o'clock. Five hundred mnut-
tons we an average daily business,
Here, too, are long rows of swine has
lots, which bring fen cents each, and
also beef livers, which sell at twenty
cents. They sre bought by sausage
makers, and also by dealers in blood
mddings, an article which finds sale in
New Yor k, though riost of our readers
wold refrain from its nse even at the
expense of hunger. By 2 o'clock the
entire market, embracing four acres, is
astir, and the watchmen have gone
home to rest. The array of fruit and
vegetables whick greets the eye on
every side, embraces everything that
«space of 1,000. miles. The hardest
work is now to be done for six hours,
during which time 6 000 retail grocers
with their wagons will visit the spot to
lay in their stock for the day's trade.
You ean hear the rattle of their distant
wheels, and in hall an hour the van-
guard of this army will be on the
ground. What a mob this place will
present in the eonrse of two hours!
what tumult, what chaffing, what oaths,
what wriggling of vhesis to get through
the impacted street | !

Arzenie Eating,
It is estimated that at least four thou-
sand of the young ladies of St. Lonis
are given fo these poisonous prac tices,
They eat arsenic to give “snap” and
brillisncy to their eyes and smoothness
to their complexion; they take landannum
or opium either to overcome lassitnde
begotten of «hours and reckless
Py OF because they are fascinated
by the wild snd riotous dreams, and |
love to follow the drowsy phanta- ies
the drmgs call up. This number in-
cludes the young women only, and does |
not take into secount the large number |
of married and ageing ladies who in |
dulge their taste or folly in this direction |
Ti the figures are correot, they argue |

force at work in the ranks of young |
womanhood, and the fact that a law is |

the weakest possible bilvrier to ‘the |
further prevalence of the practice. I
have heard it said that some ladies were

foxicating drugs, that they paid periodi-
