If onions ar thoroughly ripe there Is
no difficulty in keeping tlicm until
spring. But If they re immature, with
thick, prren licsciiS. tlieonly way U k'l
tlient. HcworJin to American Agricul
turist. t tli oiJ faUiond method f
"tracin;." TUU consist of tying two or
thrra onions MtluT. with a Hiring
around the neck. Then plat another
onion on th trace an J rind the strins
round the nerk. mid then another and
anollMT. till you l'i' a nrini; r tmce
of onions a yard l.i- 1 lK thi up in
a coot, dry room.
If the onion ore perfect!. ripe and
dry they can be spivad out four or five
iiicluK tlik-k on shelves or on the floor of
an airy room. If somewhat green. Iit
free from 'scullions," spread them out
thinner and turn occasionally till you
pet lli-m dry and firm. If you do not
ant to aeli or uae the onions tirfore
spring a convenient way to keep them is
to put theiu in a dry place and let tliem
freera. All that t necessary is to keep
them dry and prevent their thawing.
Thi-y will enrue out fit their winter
quarters fresh and firm, and will keep
just a well aa tlnwe that have not lieen
fnen. When wanted for aale during
tlrs winter a Rood plan is to keep the
onions in alatted bushel boxes. Keep
theiu in a cool, dry room, not in a damp
cellar. The boxes can be piled on top of
each other and in rows, with an inch or
no of space between theui for ventila
tion. Onion sets are easy or difficult to keep
according to their quality. The authority
quoted advieK. if they have lonr. slim
bulla with many green tops, either to
throw them away or spread them out to
dry in an airy room and then on the ap
proach of winter place them on f.helves
ron a floor six inches deep and let theiu
freeze. Cover with ba or matting or
anything that will keep them from thaw
ing. In thin way you will (ret some good
set for your own une, but they will sel
dom be good enough f-ir the trade.
(rood onion nets should txs dead ripe in
August or September. A pood act is a
iierfeclly formed onion in miniature. It
is a r'iind. plump, fat little onion, with
the neck or top withered up to almiwt
nothing. If possible draw them in when
the weather is dry and hot, and run
them through a fanning mill to sift out
tlie sand and dirt, and blow away the
dried up leaves of the onions or weeds or
any other rubbish that may le with
thera. It is better to do this when the
unions come iu dry from the field on a
hot day rather than to wait, for the
leave will dryer then than if kept for
Home time and allowed to sweat After
the dirt and leaves ar got rid of, spread
the onions out then to dry, nnd keep
them dry till winter nets in. During the
winter they can be kept frozen or placed
on shelves in a cool, dry room, or in
boxes or even in barrels. The great
point is to keep them dry and cold. If
warm and damp they are apt to start to
grow. Onion sets are a highly profitalilo
crop, Init there are comparatively few
who succeed in raising them to perfec
tion. If well grown they are easily kept
and sold. They are always in denuuid
in the upring, and the market is rarely
overstocked with them.
Rotation of Crop.
The principles of rotation have been
laid down as follows: 1. Every plant ex
hausts the soil when carried off from it.
2. Hut all plants do not exhaust the coil
equally, nor do different plants exhaust
the soil in the same manner, 3. Even
when fed out on the farm, all plants do
not restore to the soil the same quantity
nor tlie same quality of manure. 4. All
crops are not equally favorable to the
growth of weeds, the nourishment of
fungi or insects or to the health of the
land.
A study of these practical rules makes
plain the fact that rotation is not ixhi1.n1
under some circumstances, while in
others it is a necessity for profitable cul
tivation. In some cases, as with aspar
agus, onions, carrots, etc.. farmers find
it ID their interest to cultivate these
on the same land year after year, ma
nuring the soil, of course, freely with
such plant food as best suits the crop.
Again, in very rich land, there Is often
little or no need of rotation.
On the other hand, many plants suc
ceed best on new land and are liable to
degenerate if continuously cultivated on
the same soil. Ntrawls-rries ure a well
known instance of litis. Then again dif
ferent plants dilTer widely as to their
power of drawing food from one and the
name soil. live and buckwheat, for in
fcUnce, can i grown with fair profit
when many other crops would starve.
And yet attain, by long continued cul
tivation of any one crop comes almut a
eculiar condition of the soil, of which
"ciover silk" land is an illustration. In
deciding upon a rotation of crops, there
fore, it liehooves the farmer to consider
well not only the chemical constituents
of his soil and the manures to Ik- em
ployed, but the peculiarities and habits
of growth of the various crojw to be
grown.

KEUKA LAKE 13 FOR THE SUNFLOWER
i':rHrttr I'tsJlines.
If the qii'Mion of the selection of a na
tional flower should be left to the deci
t,ini of the residents iu this part of the
delightful I'cuka lake region it would be
-ttIol in favor of the sunflower.
Tlie Trst settler on lands within tlie
village lK.iindar.es of Uammondspor,
was Capt- John Slieatliar. lie purchased
his lioi.seste.id in direct from the
agent of Sir William Putney, who
owned the most of Steuben county.
Oi l. Sheathar. his biographer says, was
a ICevolutioiiary soldier. He lield a com
mission as captain of dragoons, and had
tlie reputation of being an excellent offi
cer and a favorito with Gen. Washing
ton. He lived on the head of Crooked
(Keuka) lake, and fared sumptuously,
lie was a ganerous, hospitable man and
a true patriot. lie was of a stout, port
ly ligure, and made a fine appearance
on horseback dressed in his Continental
regimentals, as he used to appear on ail
celebration occasions.
Capt. Sheathar came from Virginia,
and he brought withhini into the Keuka
lake wilderness a number of sunflower
seeds which lie planted in the grounds.
It is said that he frequently declared that
Wa.-hingtons favorite, flower was the
sunflower, and it is a tradition that the
seeds Capt Sheathar planted here came
from a flower that grew on tlie estate of
the father of hi country. The sunflow
ers that grew from the seeds of Keuka
Lake's pioneer settler were probably the
first that bloomed in western New York.
Today, all through this region of lus
cious fruits and brilliant blooms, scions
of that illustrious stock hold a proud
place. They brighten every garden,
am! Ixaiii from their lofty and sturdy
stalks on many a velvety lawn. They
burst in glory from amid the green acre-n-.-of
trailing grape vines, high on the
i-lopcs that guard the shores of Keuka
lake, and close to the foliage fringed
birders of the lake itself they bow their
lately, gold crowned heads to the sa
luting breeze. Summer cottages along
the iaU-.set back againstthe hills among
old oaks and pine and elms, find theiu
selves, as the season grows, almost hid
den by the broad leafed growth of this
great flower stalk, and the cottagers
walk with a sunburst at every turn. The
flowers lift up t heir glowing faces against
the gable windows, and even nod at one
another acro--s the housetops.
It is the priJcof the Keuka lake citi
zen to have it recorded in his local print
that he has placed upon the editor's table
the largest and brightest sunflower of
the season, or that he has the highest
sunflower stalk or one with the most
fiiwers on it. Thus The Uamruondsport
Herald of this week announces that
Nicholas Augur has shown to the editor
a sunflower that grew in his yard, and
that it measured twelve inches across in
side its fringe of golden leaves. It had
seeds enough to plant a five acre loL A
paper in another town says that a sun
flower stalk twenty feet high and hav
ing seventy-five immense flowers on it
is a sight to be Been in James Sebring's
dooryard. and that it is worth going
twenty miles to see.
Keuka lake wants to lie put on record
as U iug for the sunflower for the na
tional flower first, last, and oil the time.

Itatath of a famous Parrot.
George Ciough' parrot Polly died
Tuesday ufternoon, aged over 4!) years.
Polly was the most wonderful parrot
ever known in this htate. She could not
only talk, but carry on conversation un
derstaiuiingly, and she In-wed with great
conrtesv when she said "How do you
do?" and "Uood-hy." She could sing,
too, and sing well, giving whole stanzas
of songs which took her fancy without
mut-ing a word or note. Siie had notions
in regard to the use of language, and abso
lutely refused to say sonic words, though
perfectly free with their equivalents.
Among the obnoxious words were yes
ami no, which she never was heard to
pronounce in her life. Polly was brought
to New Hampshire by James Elliott, and
was afterwards given to Joseph Slorgan
in lVnv, where she bad her toes frozen
olT. She was sold by him to Mi's. Thomas
Sargeaiit, whoso husband kept the rail
road station at Robinson's ferry, and was
purchased by Mr. ('lough rJiotit thirty
years ago for 23. She could talk fluent
ly ill that time, and continued to im
prove until she became almost master of
the language. She was visited by hun
dreds of people annually, and was known
all over ilie state. Concord Monitor.
Gaiteau'e Cunte.
Tlie death of Policeman Kearney, the
officer who arrested Guiteau just after
l:e had shot President Garfield, brings
up once more "Guiteau's curse." The
superstitious find much food for morbid
imaginings iu the fate which has befaflen
s: many of the chief actors in that trag
ical afTair. il must have been an impar
tial cr too comprehensive curse, for
while George 15. Corkhiil, the prosecut
ing attorney, and Judge Porter, his as
sistant, ure both dead, poor Charley
Heed, who defended him, after attempt
ing suicide by jumping from a ferry
hont into the North river, is i:i an insane
asylum in New Jersey, and Scoville,
Guiteau's brother-in-law, who assisted
in the defense, is divorced from his wife
and is littlo better than a legal wreck.
However, Judge Cox, who presided at
the trial and sentenced the assassin, is
hale ::nd hearty, sound of body and
mind, and is just now wrestling with
the mysteries of the Ilutler-Strong cae.

The remains of Gen. Pascal do Paoli,
who died i:i London on Feb. 5, 1807, at
the age of 62. will shortly be removed
from the cemetery of SL Pancras and be

the erection of a fitting tomb. The sub
scriptions have been collected by M.
Franccschini Pietri, the well known sec

The HiitUh steamship Astor Hall,
which crri vih! hero a few days a"o from
LiveriHiul with a carpoof salt and plios
pliat ", now l:ririg unloaded at the Vuocn
and Cirs-ent wharf, u the object of much
interest i.i the Third district at present.
The cause of attraction is the crew of the
vessel, one of the rnost unique seen here
for tome time, cosmopolitan as New Or
leans rightfully claitus to I. The sail
ors in question comprise forty-six Mo
hammedans, whose garments of white
cotum with red t:trlann for headgear
contrast strongly with the copper col
ored visages of the wearers. The weath
er yesterday was not jKirticularly warm,
and the sight or the crew as t bey were
at work discharging the cargo in sum
mer attire was calculated to send a chill
down the back of the most indifferent
observer. Tlie peculiarities of the peo
ple, however, arc not confined exclusive
ly to their dress, but alio apply to their
habits and customs, which are even more
markedly singukir. They eat do leef
nor pork, and ail food consumed by them
must be prepared, cooked and served
by people of their own race.
Two casks are employed by the 6hip
for this purpose. They fare principally
upon rice and curry, huge pots of which
are, cooked daily for their use, and served
willi unvarvmz monotony lor tireauiasi,
dinner and supper. The rice is boiled
after their own methods, and the curry
pounded 'in the primitive style which
prevailed among them a thousand years
ago. A queer idea wun meiu is nui nr
hand of the stranger is sacrilegious and
contaminates their food, whfcli would
be immediately disdained if ever sub
jected to the simple touch of any other
race, i ins also appns 10 meir iwwuj;
utensils and r.U cooking implements cm
ployed by them. Sometimes for a change
they eat mutton, but the sheep must be
killed by their butcher secretly, so that
even the eye of the Christian may not
gaze upon the slaughter.
With some tnltes of the race tne Mea
is even carried still further, the shadow
of a Christian falling upon their food
unfitting it for use. A visit to their
quarters in the forward end of tho ship
revealed the fact that, though cleanli
ness is one of the injunctions of the Mo
hammedan faith, they were palpably ig
norant of its desirability for its own
sake. The room in which they were
gathered at the evening meal was their
sleeping quarters, and u!o served as a
smoking room end pantry, cs revealed
by portions of a quartered sheep, which
was susjicndcd from the ceiling.
Tlie air was heavy with tho fumes of
tobacco Finoke of a peculiar flavor, pro
dued from cheroots, which such of the
sailors who bad finished their evening
weal were pufiing vigorously. Perliap?
one of the most curious features of tlx
rejwrter's visit was the sight of these
people at sup;er. Eijht or ten men
were seated tailor fashion around a large
basin of rice, ia the center of which
w as a curry sauce of about the consist
ency of honey.
The Hindoostaiiose would dip his right
hand into the dih. unmindful of table
etiquette, and. rolling up into a wad
about a handful of the rice, would flavor
it with a little curry and then transfer
the morsel to his mouth. His neighbor
would then proceed to do likewise, until
the whole circuit was completed. The
interpreter, who accompanied the re
porter, slated tliat the men never used
the left hand iu eating, nnd that before
and after each meal they cloaned their
mouths thoroughly.
They possess fine teeth, a distinguish
ing feature which Ij found oven among
the nged. While the Mohammedan creed
enjoins that they shall offer prayer to
Allah four or five times a day, they have,
sailoriike, grown indifferent to the strict
decrees of their religion. They are very
cleanly, however, and bathe every day,
no matter how cold tho weather may Ve.
They are, of course, tect;;ta!ists, it being
a breach of their religious faith to touch
the tempting urrac.
As Fsilors. they were said t J compere
unfavorably with tlie English in propor
tions of four to o!sr. and in cases of
emergency tv.-o English sailors were
worth a boatload of them. This was
duo to the fuel that they wore fatalists
pure and simple, and that nothing could
alter tho mysterious workings of Allah.
The Mohammedans speak only Ilindoo
Etanec. and were engaged t:t Bombay
about three months ago. the agreement
in shipping articles being that they
6hould bo returned to that port at the

coiiiniitisarK-siof Kilice, who wore nuthor
izetl ti proceej militnri niaiiu in case of
rcKLstancf. the of!k-iala of the coiiipanjr
were obliged ta yield. The action of the
guvunuiu'iit in the matter originated in
tho theory that lira te lephone system ia
too vast a monopoly to remain In the
liandsofa private company of liniite !
liahility, ami that, like the postal and
telegraph system throughout Curope. it
should bo run by the national govern
ment for the benefit of the community
st large. .
The charter which the "Societe (ien
eralo Ues Telephones" ohtaitiiil from ths
rticister of inlutry an i cummene. in
I60I. contains a clause whereby tlie gov
ernment is authorized to acquire. :it any
time it deems lit. lln 1 ights. privileges
and property of the company, in rtturn
for the jiayiui'iit of an indemnity, the
amount of which is to lie fixed either by
mutual agreeiueim or. in case of dispute,
by exjierts.
In June last tho chamlier of deputies,
in compliance with a request on the part
of the prime minister. 11. Tirard. voted
a uci of SC.C'iO.OOO for the purpose of
enabling the government to acquire the
telephone system, and ti few daya later
the premier addressed a letter to the
president of the company, w herein he
notified liiui that tlie charter would be
withdrawn on Sept. 1. At the same lime
M. Tirard requested the "Societo Gcn
trale ties Telephones" to declare the
amount at which it estimated the v.-.ltic
of its lines find material, stating that, in
case of any dilfercnce of opinion on tho
subject lietween the company and tho
government, experts would at or:ce 1
appointed to arbitrate oil tho points at
issue.
To this communication tho manage
ment of the "Societe (lenenile d.-s Tele
phones' replied, refusing to give any iu
fiirmation as to the value of im materuJ,
ami contesting the light of the govern
ment to annul its charter. Nothing fur
ther was done in the matter until Aug.
1'). when M. Joust i iin. an tlcctrical.es
ltrt. was npoiuted by the prefect of the
Seine to obtain an inventory i;f the ma
terial of the company and to estimate
its value. The management, however,
reiiiacd ilher to furnish 51. Jousseliu
with r.n inventory, or to give him any
facilities for compiling one.
On Aug. SI tho -prime minister ad
drossd a further letter to the president
of the company, repeating the request
contained in his former communication,
and on receipt of a negative, and even
discourteous, rc-ply, dispatched a final
appeal to the management on Aug. 24,
which fvas allowed to remain without
ai-niiou ledgmctit whatsoever. Cnderlhe
circumstances, therefore, the govern
ment felt that it had done nil that lay in
its power to come to a friendly under
standing, and accordingly issued orders
to llie department of postsand telegraphs
to seize the property of tho tc'epfione
company throughout France 0:1 the morn
ing of Sept. 1, at the Kime time sending
instructions to the prefects and sub-pre-fei'ts
of the various departments to pro
vide for armed force, in case of any re
sistafice on the part of tha company ofii
cii.ls. The proceedings in connection with
the seizure passed off without any dis
turbance, the only arrest made being
that of the artist of a comic paper, who
was detected in the act of caricaturing
the very stout commissary of police ap
pointed to superintend the taking pos
session of tliL telephone Gtiiccs on the
Place de 1 ( Ijier.i, iu this cityl Of course
the Societe (Jencrale des Telephones is
loud and violent in its denunciations of
the action of the government, which it
describes as being nothing less than a
shameless robbery, ami it has already
Commenced legr.l proceedings in the
matter, with the object of securing not
only the cost value of tlie material
which it owned, but also n heavy indem
nity for the loss of ho lucrative a mo
nopoly. There is little chance, however,
that its wishes in the matter will receive
any satisfaction. Meanwhile, the tele
phone service continues without a single
break or interruption.
To whr.t extent the community at
large will lie benefited by tho change
wili he realized when I add that 51.
Cotilon. the energetic head of I he postal
and telegraph departments, has alreedy
made arrangements for reducing the
amount of the annual subscription from
$12 to S7.. while the cost of five min
utes talk over the telephone wires here
at Talis is to lie reduced from ten cents,
its present price, to five cents. I'-i id

0:t the iS;h of June hist. Walter, the
little 4-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. T.
II. Reynolds, while eating a piece of
melon, had the misfortune to have a seed
lodge in his windpijie. Medical aid was
called hi and the doctors did all in their
power to dislodge the troublesome wed.
but without avail. A surgical operation
was considered, the doctors fearing that
the seed would be drawu down to the
lung, which would result in an ahscess.
Hut it was finally thought best to leave
,natun to take its course. Tho boy was
greatly troubled by tiii.) foreign ln.dy in
Ids windpipe, ami tho father, to encour
age him in his efforts to cough it up.
promised lii:.i a gun if ho should t-xpcll
tho seed and bring it to him. Last Sat
urday, Mr. Tom Reynolds led a red fox,
which lie. has around the farm, and told
the boy to come with him, thst they
would havo ;i chase. The dogs were put
on tho track, and tway the father nnd
son went 0:1 foot, following the lleet
footed and musical mouthed hounds.
Finally tho boy coughed and cscLiimed,
"Papa, giva D? that gun: here is that
wateraiehri eccd." Sure enough, he had
eipelle-d it. Walter bus experienced
great relief shico and his parmts are re

It is a faot that there ia no uurplus of
draft horses. It in also true that there is
a great duficiwxy cf good roadsters, ai;d
we ciin se no other cause for tlo busi

produced are not the class most desired.
There are of course a great luany common

with whiit is received for the bt-st prado.
