How to Plant the Potato.
Plant never less than six inches deep,
better seven ; in sandy soil never less
than seven or seven and a half. The reas
on is this, and it will show many points it
will cover: It will pnt the crop beyond
the hurtful influence of the heat and
drought: It will bury the seed so that the
frost cannot reach it, early as it is put in
to the ground; and if it should reach it,
being buried so deeply, it will draw out
gradually, which will save it. It is as
well here, the seed is, as in the cellar, and
may better sprout here than in the cellar.
It will thus show above the ground in due
time, when the frosts have disappeared and
the growing season sets in. The soil be
ing well drained—an indispensible thing
—the rest will not hurt. There being a
good mellow soil with humus (vegetable
matter) charging it, it will be compara
tively dry and warm. This will save the
seed; providing always it is sound; other
wise, affected with rot, it will be lost.
The distance of planting apart must
depend upon the sort that is planted. A
spreaning potato—spreading in the hill—
must have more room. Thus, we plant
the Peach Blows farther apart than the
Early Rose. The latter will put its tu
bers close together, a nest of them, and
the hills can be put close together, say
twelve to fourteen inches, or drop the seed
(a single eye or two) continuously eight
inchesapart, the rows as near fo2ether as
till permit with the cultivator, the nearer
for the close ,growingroots. By thus plant
ing'
as will be seen rathor close, there
will be no overgrown, and, consequently,
coarse, and it may be, hollow potatoes.
Neither will there be neccessarily many
small ones, especially with some sorts, of'.
which, the Early Rose is a beautiful ex
ample. The size will be medium, large
enough just the thing for cooking; and
there will be improved quality—a thing,
we need not say, of no secondary impor
tance.
Select such seed for planting as is want
ed to be grown, of the best, the finest
qualities all around, and divide into as
many as it pleases—a few eyes only in a
hill.—Prairie Farmer.
When Should Colts be Broken ?
Where one is engaged in breeding
horses and has the proper convenience, he
cannot begin too early to break his colts.
If be has roomy box stalls in which to
put his brood mares and colts, he should,
from the very first, begin to pet and han
dle the young foals. He should have his
little halters and *put them on and accus
tom them to their use. Ho must treat
them with kindness, and teach them he is
a friend and not an enemy. By handling
them and feeding them in this manner he
gets their confidence. and the lessons will
never be tb:gotten. The great secret of
success with colts is. kindness—aniform
koidness throughout their c ilthood.
In the fall, after two years old, they
sl:ould be bi eke to harness. If the colt'
has been kindled properly. this is hut lit
tle trouble. First get the colt accost inteJ
to the harness, putting it on him for sev
eral days in succession. and letting him
stand with it on Then put him by the
side of a steady horse and drive him
around without hitching him to anything,
so as to get him accustomed to being
driven and show him that he is not going
to be hurt. When he becomes entirely
tractable hitch him to sonic light vehicle
in company with his steady companion,
being careful that nothing shall frighten
him in his first attachment to the vehicle,
He will generally, and we have found al
ways, go on quietly when handled as we
have recommended. A little gentle work
will now be beneficial—but it should be
slow work, just to accustom him to the
harness. No first work should be given.
No heavy loads should be attached to
him. Many promising colts are seriously
injured by overwork at this age, and un
less the handler has proper judgment it is
better to wait till the colt is three years
old before breaking, when it will be better
qualified to withstand hard usage.
To Wean a Colt,
It is not necessary nor even desirable
that in weaning, The colt should be remov
ed from the mare. It is a good plan to
have a closed stall or box for her colt next
to each mare's stall. She can communi
cate in her own way with her colt, and
will not be so uneasy as she would be were
it removed out of sight, nor will the colt
suffer in any way. Care must be taken
to give the colt water four times a day,
and feed with the best of the early-cut hay,
and gradually a few oats, a handful at a
feed at first, until a pint twice a day is fed.
Colts must be kept thriving if a good
horse is wanted. The curry-comb must
be used, but gently; the young animal be
caressed and taught not to fear but to
love its owner; to become used to the
various movements made around the sta
ble, and the various articles contained
therein. It should be taught "to lead"
now, if this has been neglected up to this
time. If there is any danger of the mare
becoming troubled with excess of milk, it
must be drawn from her, and dry feed be
given her until all danger is past. When
she is quite dry the colt may take exercise
with her, but previous to this it will be
better in the stable.
Liquid Excrement.
How strangely we overlook the value of
the liquid excrement of our animals! A
cow, under ordinary feeding, furnishes in
a year 20,000 pounds of solid excrement,
and about 8000 pounds of liquid. The
comparative money value of the two is
but slightly in favor of the solid. This
statement has been verrified as truth. over
and over again. The urine of herbivor
ous animals holds nearly all the secretions
of the body which are capable of pro
ducing the rich nitrogenous compounds so
essential as forcing or leaf-forming agents
in the growth of plants. The solid holds
the phosphoric acid, the lime and magne
sia which go to the seeds principally ; but
the liquid, holding nitrogen, potash and
soda is needed in forming the stalk and
leaves. The two forms of plant nutri
ment should never be separated or allowed
to be wasted Sy neglect. The farmer who
saves all the urine of his animals doubles
his manurial resources every year. Good
seasoned peat is of immense service to far
mers, when used as an absorbent,•and the
stalls for animals should be so constructed
as to admit of a wide passage in the rear
with generous passage room for peat, to be
used daily with the excrement.—Boston
Journal of Chemistry.
TALL patients suffer much more than
shcrt ones, because of the drag of the long
limbs upon the waist. But the object is to
support, with the pillows, the back below
the breathing apparatus and above the
hips; so as to allow the shoulders room to
fall back, and to support the head, without
throwing it forward. The suffering of ex
hausted patients is greatly increased by
neglect of these points. And many an
invalid, to weak too drag about the pillow
himself, slips his book or anything at hand
behind the lower part of his back to sup
port it.—Boston Journal of Chemistry.

A FEW REASONS
ARION PIANO
IS SUPERIOR TO ALL OTIIERS
The ARION PIANO-FORTE has greater power
than any other Piano-Forte manufactured.
It will Stand in Tune Longer,
and in its mechanical construction it is more per
feet, and, therefore,more durable, than any instru
ment constructed in the usual modern style.
The arrangement of the Agraffe, the manner of
stringing, the peculiar form and arrangement of
the Iron Frame
SUPERCEDES ALL OTHERS
The use of a bar (which is a part of the Iron
Frame on a line with the heavy steel stringing,)
GREAT STRENGTH
where most needed, and in this respect all other
pianoea fail.
The construction of the WREST PLANK, into
which the tuning Pins are inserted, is tut& that it
is impossible for the pins to come loosened, or the
Wrest Plank itself to split, as is too often the case
in other Piano-Fortes.
The Extraordinary Evenness
throughout the scale, the excellent Singing Quali•
ity, the
LENGTH AND PURITY OF VIBRATION,
all go to prove what we Attila, via that the
ARION PIANO-FORTE
Is the Best Instrument Manufactured,
ALSO

WITH THE

VOX lIUMANA
THE NE PLUS ULTRA OF

any other Organ in the market notwithstanding
the representations of agents interested in the mile
of other Organs, we do fully warrant every Organ

We have no agent in Huntingdon at present,there
fore all who may want one of the best Organs ex

WARNING
GEO. SHAFFER.
llsxr Crrixess of this county who, bad been
persuade(' to buy other kinds of Sewing Machines,
which seemed at first to work well on a tolerable
range of work, have expressed to me their regrets
that the genuine original Elias Howe Sewing Ma
chine—the best in the world—had not been brought
to their notice before purchasing. And judging
from the number of offers I have, to trade Howe
machines for alt other kinds, I estimate that the
people of this county have lost more than $20,000
by failing to get, at the firer, the genuine Howe
Machine. It is made on sound mechanical prin
ciples, avoids rickety cog-wheels, and is so con
structed as to have perfect control by adjustment,
and provision made to restore lost motion when it
wears, thereby securing extraordinary durability,
and adaptation to the greatest range of work. Now
as my traveling agents may not be able to visit
every person in time, and an many inferior ma-,
chines ofAifferent kinds arc still being urged on
the public, I hereby OWE NOTICE, that before
you . spend your time or money on any other ma
chine, the safest plan is, either to write to me di
reef, pr inquire of agents for the 'famous Elias
Howe, machine, from Brown's Carpet Store, Hun
tingdon, Pa., and take no agents word for it, that
the machine is genuine, unless it has the medal
lion at the head of this article, imbedded in the
bed plate of every machine._
