The Both Lima Ilcan.
The bush lima Loan grew rapidly in
favor last year with those who tried it
because of its ability to withstand
drought yielding gcxd crops where oth
ers failed to be profitable. It is quite as
prolific per acre as the largo lima be
cause it can be planted ninch closer, and
less expensive to grc? because it needs
Jio poles. Thns far it has proved free
from rust which so often reduces the
market value of the horticultural and
other shell beans, and for family use it
is unsurpassed by any, excepting the
large lima. Although it looks small,
there are not any, if many, varieties that
will yield a bushel to a smaller number
of bills, or a quart cf shelled beans to a
smaller basket of pod la our experi
ence we consider it a decided acquisi
tion, both to the family garden and the
market gardener. American Cultiva
tor. The Vlnelew Sweet I-otata.
Practical Farmer speaks of a variety
of."vineles" sweet potato suitable for
growth in the eastern, northern and
northwestern states, with short, chunky
vines that, planted at about the usual
distance apart for ordinary potatoes, 3 !
feet of rows and 1 S feet in the row,
yield 100 to 200 bushtls per acre and
would bear putting much closr aud
ht m to bo Lardy enough for tho north
cm states. A few years ago it was
thought that a sweet potato grown
north of tho Caroliras was not good.
Yet now. According to the authority
quoted, the Jersey sweet pctato takes
higher rank than those grown farther
srath.
A (rood CrmitiMC Wax.
The Farm Journal says: For grafting
wax we think this is about right: To 3
parts resin and 3 of beeswax add 1 of
tallow. Pet in an iron pot, beat slowly
aud mix wUL Ponr out into cold water
and pnll ly hand until it assumes a
light color; work into sticks aud put
into a cool place till wanted. Iu using,
oil tbe hands, work the wax until soft
and pres it tightly around tho graft
and over the cracks. If the day be warm,
it is sometimes better to occasionally
moisten the hands with cold water.
We do not think it nt-cosaary to enter
into tho minutiae cf the operation cf
giafting, but simply to impress upon all
the importance of having the inner bark
of the stock and scions to fit tightly to
go:btr. If this be attended to, success is
almost certain.

A Flaunted X.auilt r Camp.
Strange tales come from the Sonrd
nahunk region in regard t j Jack Rei.-ii's
depot camp on the road ka:!ii:g to
Strickland's mountain. Tho camp is
built over the grave of a man who was
killed in souio unknown way, and the
woodsmen say the place is haunted. At
any rate on every moonlight night a lis
tener outside tho camp can hear tho
sound cf rolling stones that apparently
aro grating, grinding, rattling, plunk
ing each ether, as though sliding down
a steep Lank.
Diligent search ha3 been made for the
source of this strange noise, but so iar
no one has solved the i:iy5tcry. Old
lumbermen remember that the camp ha-t
been considered to be haunted for years,
aud tho sound of the rolling stones
has been heard on many a moonlight
night in the past ii;;ny lumbermen
who aro on their way into the Sourdua
huuk region prefer to push by the depot
camp and tako a night tramp rather
than sleep over that gravu and hear
these grinding, rolling stones. Banger

MACHINE CUT POTATO SEED.
Characteristic Features of tho CulUr Are
Kapidity and t'Rifurm Size of Seed.
Machines far cutting seel potatoes
have now been sold for several year.-,
and those who use them have had a fair
chance to estimate their real value. In
order to learn whether thcjC- slic-ers ara
more reliable than a knife in tho hands
of an ordinary workman Rural New
Yorker solicited the experiences cf a
number cf farmers who have given the
machines a fair trial. Tho tatter is a
simple set cf knives, which press down
on tho potato and slice it into; square
pieces.
A Virgina farmer thus snnimed cti
the desirable points cf the potato cut
ter: The rapidity wiih which the seed
can bo cut, the uniform size of the sre
and at tho same tiuio the removing of
the seed cud of the potato. Iu many
localities it is important to get tho sed
into the ground as soon as possible, and
it would require quite a number of
hands to keep the plautcr running un
less the seed were cut a camber of days
ahead. With a cutter nn ordinary mau
can, with two or three hours' start, ke p
the planter going without a:;y trouble,
and one can fuel satisfied that the seed
is cut much moro perfectly than it
would have been cut by an ordinary
hired man with a knife. Ho did not
think that the machine would te espe
cially useful on a small farm. bu,t any
one planting 25 barrels of seed and up
ward should certainly not be witnout a
pctato cutter.
One correspondent reported as fol
lows: I used tho Aspinwall potato cut
ter last season. A man can cut with this
machine, of large and medium potatoes,
from six to eight bushels an hour. It
does the bcrt work on large and medium
sized potatoes which have tho eyes even
ly distributed. It docs better work gen
erally on long potatoes. I could not tell
what percentage of hills were missed,
but I think moro than where we planted
hand cut seed. I think an average hiied
man will do as gexxl work with the ma
chine as he would with a knife, unless
you make him take so much pains with
the knife that it would not be profitable.
Such a machine is desirable because cue
man will cut seed as fast as four or five
by hand, and where one uses a planti r
he can keep it running steadily, with
out extra help or without cutting pota
toes ahead, which I have found to to
risky business. Where potatoes arc
drilled with an Aspinwall planter I
don't think the loss from missing Lills
amounts to much.
A Long Island farmer claimed that
his cutter cut about six bushels an hour,
doing its best work oa long, medium
sized tubers. He did not have over 1
per cent cf missing hills. He preftrrt J
seed cut with the machine to that cut
by Land, as it cuts uniform and wastes
no seed. He calculated that a cutter
saves the timo cf four men at a besy
season, but that to make tho machine ,
valuable ouo should cat from CO to 75
bushels of potatoes. I

sheep in i rler to save much of the

Sheep will eat a great iiciny plants
which cattle reject, and they graze
close to the ground. Young and teii-de-r
weeils are b-!ieae:es t sheep, and
they, then-fore, assist in ridding the
t'lelds of such jK-st. A small iloi k of

Itatherind of scabs, which are dislodge.! ererr
one to four day. There are three turbinated
hone or curved shrives, one nhove the other,
extending throneh the nose (ilhKrated in tliis
figure). Tbe middle aud lower reach nearly
hack to the onenine of the eustachian tube that
leads to the ear. Three-fourth of the cases of
deafness come through inilammation in this
rejrion. Extension from the ear to the
mastoid cells and the brain mav be the result; as
in the case of Senator Conkhn's;. The soft tis
sues of these shelves become much thickened
by continued inflammation, nearly if not com
pletely ckisin? the nose, much of the time com
pelling breathing through the mouth, a dry

bronchitis, through the direct inhaling into
these organs of dry air and dust, instead of be

Enlarged tonsils and an occasional attack of
quinsy are frequent complications in those of a
scrofulous constitution. Ittakes but a moderate
degree of these conditions to ruin the voice of
singers and make public speaking a burden.

The Novel of Eeli ion.
I heard long ago of an enterprising
traelesmail who desired to have the Old
Testament at least broken into a h -riea
of romances. Hy others, very likely
much le-ss pious men, no v.r-ion of tin
liarrat ives can In-tolerated except t!ie
uiicieut original versions. Yet many
readi-rs or hearers are so familiar w ith
these, or think themselves familiar
(they would probably break down un
der examination ), that something more
"spicy" is rcquirc-d by them. I have
read an American novel almut the love
a flairs of Judas In-ariot and Mary Mag
dalene. It did not interest me, I own,
but it did make me laugh. Prol-ably a
more pious student would have lut-n
t-dilicd. There is 110 r.ccounting for
tastes. Perhaps no Biblical novel has
ever won critical applause or i'!i reek
oneil ti piece of litcr.it ur.'. But sueii
novels hit a Iarure class of readers whoso
tastes other mutters is lit t always
istd.
It would Is interest ing to know what
