Modem Machinery Used by Kxporta For Cutting and Planting the Tuber. In pluutiug potatoes, either for home use or for market, the first essential is a well drained, rich plat of laud. A field which has been two years in clover is usually the best To this apply a heavy dressing of well rotted barnyard ma nure. Break the sod in the fall or the winter 8 or 4 inches deep ; then in spring turn it over to a depth of 8 or 0 inches and cut up thoroughly with a disk har row, continuing the operation until the ' seed bed ia well fined and in the best : condition. Use a smoothing harrow to j compact it sufficiently, so that it will not be dried out unduly. . The old method of band planting will probably continue as the standard proc ess for the general farmer who culti vates but a small patch for his own use. The potatoes are out by hand to two eyes, dropped in rows 8 feet apart, with the bills 18 inobes apart in the row Jr. they are to be plowed one way and 3X to 8 feet apart if they are to be cultivat ed crosswise. Checking;, however, is hardly ever necessary except where the land ia very foul, aaya American Agri culturist, authority for the foregoing. This authority also has the following to ay concerning commercial planting : For commercial planting hand proo eases are entirely too alow ; consequent ly inventors have constructed machines both for cutting the potatoes into suita ble sited pieoea and for planting them. There ia also on the market a machine which outs the seed and at the same time does the planting. This ia a hand potato cutter that does the work of eight persons. The number of knives can be decreased so as to make larger pieces of it, or can be increased and smaller pieces obtained. This machine can also be used for cutting beets, turnips, car rots and other roots for stock feed. Machines for planting potatoes at the rate of four to eight aores per day are no longer an experiment, and the best are familiar to readers through adver tisements. One man only is needed to operate the machine that plants cut seed, while the automatic cutter and planter requires a man and boy. These implements open the furrow, drop the seed and any desired amount and kind of fertilizer, and cover evenly with soil to a uniform depth, bringing an even stand. A marker indicates the next row and keeps the rows straight One of these machines soon saves its cost on a farm where potatoes are grown to any extent, while one oan do much custom planting, and make money while sav ing expense for his customers. In these days of close margins ou the potato crop it is necessary to study every possible detail to produce the least expense. ' , Close Boot Froulng. The new method of close root pruning ia exactly the reverse of the old idea of transplanting namely, taking up a tree with its roots entire. H. M. Stringfel low, near Galveston, is the pioneer in heralding this new method, which a number of equally successful horticul turists in the south approve and prac tice. Briefly stated, the new method is as follows: Hold tree, top down, and cut bauk to about one inch. This cut will face down when tree is set. Leave only from one to three feet of top. Let all shoots grow. When one foot ' in length, rub off all that are not needed for a symmetrical top. The Pacific Rural Press, commenting on this new method, says: "We are aware that the system has been follow ed to some extent by some planters upon the moist soil in the neighborhood of Visalia. It is our judgment that under favorable conditions for rootiug, such as retention of moisture neur tlie surface, the results described by Mr. Stringfel low would be attainable, so far as suc cessful striking of roots from the fresh ly cut stubs goes. We are also quite as sured that undor tho conditions sur rouudiug many of our newly planted trees in California a large proportion of them would die. Our observation is that too mnoh importance has boen at tached to the retention of fibrous roots, but we should want to cut our roots longer than hedges for the same reason that in the drier parts of this state we use longer cutting aud plant seeds deep er than is desirable in moist summer climates." When to Uen Ben Manure. There is little objection to putting the hen manure directly on the garden to be plowed or spaded under iii the spring. One advantage in keeping this manure over winter is that when thor oughly dried out it may be crushed or ground and used with muriate of potash and ground bone to moke a good ferti lizer. This dried manure makes an ex cellent "filler" for a home mixed fer tilizer. The carbonate of lime should not be used on fresh hen manure if you wish to retain its value. This form of lime liberates the ammonia by permit ting it to pass into a volatile form. Laud plaster, or sulphate of lime, will "sweeten" the house and preserve the manure much better than the "lime." I Rural New Yorker. Fighting Cutworms. In a bulletin from the New Jersey station it is stated that clover or sod laud is most frequently infested by cut worms, which are less frequently found on lute cultivated land. The worms are specially abundant in crimson clover. Among tbe remedies suggested clean culture is placed first, prominently asso ciated with early fall plowing. Apply ing a top dressing of kainit and nitrate of soda in the early spring if corn is to be planted is advised, the seeding to be delayed until the rain has carried the fertiliiers into tbe soiL Distributing clover or bran that has been moistened with paris green about the fields is also rtvnmmeuder!. Telegreph Uasen, A German expert, after a careful es timate, has announced that the total length of telegraph liuea in the world is 1,0(13,700 miles, of which Americu bus 646,000 miles; Europe, 880,700; Asia, 67,400; Africa, 31,600, and Australia, 47,600 miles. Tbe United States has a greater length than any other country, 408,900 miles, and Russia comes next, although European Russia has only 81, 000 miles. The other countries follow in this order: Germany, France, Austria-Hungary, British India, Mexico, the United Kingdom, Canada, Italy, Tor key, tbe Argentine Republic, Spain and Chile. In point of proportion, however, Belgium leads, with 400 miles of wire for every 1,000 square miles of territory ; Germany comes next with 860 miles; Holland is only slightly behind Ger many, and the United Kingdom has 380 miles of telegraph for every 1,000 miles of country. "The Barber of SeTiHe." "The Barber of Seville," tbe famous opera of Rossini, was produced for the first time on Feb. 16, 1816. According to the Italian law, which fixes tbe dura tion of the right of ownership for dramat ic works at 80 years, Boaaini'i matter piece would have become public proper ty a few weeks ago. But in Italy no op era is more popular than "The Barber," and tbe revenues from its production constitute almost the whole income of the musical academy at Peaaro, Italy, the residuary legatee of tbe oompoter. Owing to this fact, the government has issued a decree prolonging the right of proprietorship two yeara ia order to save the institution financially.
