How to Raise 500 Bushels of Potatoes
to the Acre.
The avetage yield of potatoes in the
United States, in 1877, was estimated by
the Agricultural Department at 92 bush
els, in IS7B at 68 bushels, in 1879 at 98
bushels, and there are but few States in
which the average for the last 25 years
will exceed 100 bushels per acre. Fifty
years ago, when the potato was generally
more vigorous and hardy than now, and
its insect enemies were fewer, and our
soils abounded in alkalies and alkaline
earths, there could have been no call for
an article with this heading. Crops of
150 and 200 bushels per acre were then,
exceptionally small. But in these days of
deteriorated soil and seed, is it really pos
sible than more than five times the average
yield can be produced ? Such productions
are frequently heard of in rosy reports of
good-natured agricultural committeemen.
who dig a square rod with the result of
say, four bushels, and straightway publish
the pleasant story that Farmer Redtop has
raised 640 bushels to the acre of "Stump
the World" potatoes ! And do we not
annually read of the prodigious yields in
the alluring catalogue of enterprising;
seedsmen ? However, it is certain that a
yield of 500 and more bushels of potato's
per acre has been recently attained by
farmers in most of our Northern Statts
and it can and will ho attained far limit,!
frequently in the future. It is a "sum"
in simple multiplication, one which is at
first puzzling to the most of us diggers in
the "ground rules" of agriculture; but
there is no "catch" or "trick" in it. There
are good, plain, honest directions—of
course varying ones—which, if fairly ob
served, will give the correct answer.
Anticipating that some tired-out and
doubting student of the problem may ask.
'Have you solved it yourself ?" allows me
to say that some 12 years ago, after a long
trial, I got the gratifying result—since
considerably exceeded—of 450 measured
bushels of early Goodrich potatoes, from a
measured acre.
In the first place, it is important, abso
lutely essential, that the acre of ground
selected for our large crop should possess
certain qualities ; and if there are not al
ready there we must supply them, though
it be done in a slow and expensive man
ner. To plant on a wet, heavy soil, land
undrained or unsweetened, or on a light ,
sandy, worn out field, however liberal the
immediate supply of plant-food may be,
will undoubtedly prove a disappointing
labor. Just what we desire before plant
ing is a strong, deep, warm loam—not too
light—if possible with a porous soil. But
the chances are that we shall have to be-
gin the preparation for our crop a year in
advance. We should then select a field of
blooming clover, if on a gentle slope so
much the better, plow it under deeply, and
harrow in a bushel of buckwheat, upon
which we sow 100 pounds of plaster, and
in turn plow that under when the buck
wheat has fully blossomed. This will pro
bably be early in September, when, with
out getting faint hearted and frightened
at the outlay of time and seed, we should
immediately harrow in six pecks of rye.—
This will have become large enough to
furnish considerable additional nutriment,
when in April or May, according to lo
cality and season, we are ready to start the
plow for planting. Then we have a soil
deep, rich, mellow, perous, fragrant, de
lightful to look at or work in, and we may
feel sure that our potatoes, sensitive as
they are to our surroundings, will be con
tented and disrsed to thrift in a, con
genial a home. HENRY S. GOODALE.
Raise More Ducks.
I never could understand why our farm
ers through the State did not keep ducks;
taking it as a matter of profit., they arc
more profitable than hens It may be the
impression that in order to keep ducks it
is necessary to have a pond or stream of
water close by, has deterred many from
keeping them, but there is no need of any
thing of the kind. It is true that it is
better to have a pond or stream, but you
can raise ducks just as well elsewhere. I
know of parties who are very successful in
raising th( m ; they have only a wash tub
set in the ground and filled from the pump
occasionally ; in fact, the trouble of rats
ing ducks, and about the only one, is let
ting the young go into the water too soon
after they leave the nest. When I speak
of the profit from ducks, I do not have
reference to the common ducks that we
see every day. I mean a breed of ducks
that weigh twelve pounds to the psir—
alive—such as the Rouen or Aylesbury,
both excellent layers, and easily kept and
reared, besides being large and excellent
for the market, and costing no more to
lrear than the common ducks that wil
weigh eight pounds to the pair. The
Rouen is a very handsome duck in plum
age; the drake has a glossy green head
and neck down to the white ring on his
neck, and the lower part of his body is a
beautiful green-brown gray, and shaded
with brown on the back. The duck is of
a beautiful brown, with about every feather
shaded on the outer edge with black. It
is acknowledged to be the best of the va
rieties, laying very early and continuing
through the season and late in winter.—
The Aylesbury is pure white, both the
duck and the drake, and about the same
size as the Rouen. Both become very fa
miller, and being very large and heavy, do
not care to roam as much as the common
kind.—Maine Farmer.
WHERE it is desirable to pasture sheep
or hogs in orchards, or where rabbits make
depredations, the bark of young trees may
be successfully protected by washing the
trees in spring and again in midsummer,
for sheep, and in late autumn, for rabbits,
with soap suds and carbolic acid or a so
lution of coal tar and whitewash. Both
are sure in accomplishing the end in view,
and are valuable in keeping off the borer,
and giving a healthy surface activity to
the bap, which will make the bark look
fresh and healthy. An ounce of carbolic
acid to a pail of soap-suds is sufficient.

No light broke in upon its silent gloom,

It hung above that garden soft and clear:
Around the wat•hful guard its radiance gleamed
From helm and spear.

None neared the stone.

The stars their lustrous shining had decreased.
And daybreak's earliest light was hastening fast
In the pale East.

Last in the silent Heaven, withdrew its ray;
And the white dawn, sprea.ling its spectre light,
Foretold the day.

Just at the break of morning, shook the ground
And echoed from that rent and trembling rock
With startling sound.

—.John Henry Newman, D. D.
Temptation.
While it is true that no one can escape
temptation entirely, there is no doubt he
can largely modify its influence. The
temptation which inhere in a man's mural
make up, he cannot wholly run away from,
how much soever he may desire it, because
the evil is in him, as disease is in the tainted
blood. But he can largely modify its ac
tion and lessen its virulence. One way to
do is to keep himself from sights and
sounds and surroundings which inflame
his passions and sharpen the •dge of his
appetites If his temptation is in the di
rectien of stimuleuts, then let him avoid
the sight and smell of liquor and the com
panionship of those who drink So, what
ever his weakness, let him keep beyond
the reach of whatever can penetrate him
at that point. The Indian method of
fi 4 ,hting it is an excellent one in spiritual
warfare The soldier of Christ should
keep himself under cover as much as he
can. A good deal of dodging is allowable
in a contest with Satan.
"Discretion is the better to beat a
masterly retreat, than to have your soul
captured bodily. A man who is morally
weak at any point, and who nevertheless,
persistently exposes that point to attack
commits the gravest of sins. When the
great adversary was striving to tempt
Jesus to expose himself, needlessly, to
peril, he said, "It is written thou shalt
not tempt the Lord thy God."—Golden
Rule.
Nliracies.
Never relax, much less drop, the habit
of constantly reading the four gospels, till
every incident in them becomes a familiar
st ry A ver) large part of the gospels is
occupied with the works of Jesus Christ,
and very- large part of those works are
what we call miraculous. As you read
these parts, ask yourselves in all earnest
ness—How does this work of Christ tell
me anything of God? What can I learn
of God from it ? Peter's walking on the
s. a. Is it alertly a portentous violation
of a law of nature, whatever that may
wean ; or is it a voice from God to all
timid Christians, "It is I; be not afraid?"
The raising of Lazarus. Is it merely one
startled figure snatched from the tomb for
a few short months or years by irresistable
might; or is it the assurance of Him to
whom all hearts, as well as graves. are
open. "I am the resurrection and the life ;"
"The Son quickeneth whom He will ?"
Or, lastly, the great Resurrectioa itself.
Is it only the bare fact that a man lay
dead in the grave for some forty hours,
and then lived again ; or is it part of the
eternal purpose—to use the words of the
ardent apostle—of the God of Abraham,
and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our
fathers, who glorified His Son Jesus, and
raised fr. D 1 the dead the Prince. of Life ,
sod sent Him to bless His earthly children
in turning away every one of them from
his iniquities?
One Way to Economize.
Many a poor man, if required to ac•
count for the manner in which he has es•
pended his ineotne, would find bills of his
family physician for "medical cervices"
among the leading items. In seven cases
out of ten, acute diseases are the result of
some negketed chronic disease. Thus,
fevers invariably result from diseased con
ditions of the blood and liver, and a timely
use of an alterative, or blood purifying,
and cathartic remedies would have averted
the prostrating illness, that often leaves
the system irreparably injured. Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery and Pleasant
Purgative Pellets are the best alterative
and cathartic medicines yet compounded.
Full directions are given for administering
them, together with an accurate descrip
tion of the symptoms demanding their
use. They will not cure all human ills (as
some medicines are advertised to do), but
they will cure the diseases for which they
are compounded and recommended.
TIIE eye of true faith is so quick sight
ed that it can see through all the mists
and togs of difficulties. The faith that is
grounded on the promises of God, discov
ers that in prison there is liberty ; in
trouble, peace; in affliction. comfort; in
death, life; in the cross, a crown; and in
a manager, the Lord Jesus.
