poultry-yard In which largo flocks

of MIT cultivation.
In the North the crop Is frown from
geod the first year, the rod varieties

truckers in this latitude grow their
crops from onion acts, whioh are pro
duced by sowing the seed very thickly
in the rows, nnd on moderately fertile

place to bo pluntod next spring, each

second year. The white silver-skin
and yellow Danvera varieties aro

but tho potato onion, which flrows in
bunches from a single seed. Is tho
earliest for table use, but la not bow
extensively grown. To got them in
early is to escape woods, which entail
hand weeding, but as the onion is at
gross foodor it delights In any kind of
manure and good cultivation: Tho seta
are simply planted in rows, about
three inches apart, by lightly sticking
them in the ground, though the truck

them complotoly in tho rowa, in order

manure, freo from any kind of litter,
and well Incorporated into the soil,
which should be workod over until not
a clod can bo found, for upon tho thor

"How long aro potnto roots any
wayP" I can not tell, but judging from
analogy, I should say thut In a tine,
rich, mellow soil under favorable con
ditions, they grow five or six feet
long. Tho porson who pulls up a hill
of early potatoes while tho tops aro
green, and shakos off tho earth may
suppose ho has got nearly all tho
roots, but such is by no means the
case. Tho samo is true of oriions. I
once had an onion bed on a hill side
garden, the soil of which was a fine
sandy loam. Tho bed was about four
feet wide, tho onions about full-grown
and tho tops still groen. There came
a showor in tho night and a stream ran
down over the bed until the surfaco
dirt was all washed away and the roots
wore left bare, extending unbroken in
every direction, and genorally remain
ing in tho place where they grew. In
tho morning when I visited my garden
to see tho havoc that had boon caused
by tho rain, I was surprised, beyond
measure, to find that onion roots wore
so long. Somo onions that stood near
the middle of the bed had pushed
their roots in both directions to the
outsido of the bed ; in other words,
their roots wore oxtendod two foot on
all sidos. I would notbolievoitif I had
not seen it myBelf. It is the common
opinion that tho roots of trees extend
about as far out in the ground as the
branches project out above it; but the
truth is that they extend much far
ther. I havo seen large trees, as well
as willows and alders, washed out by a
flood in the crock, and in every case
the roots were more than twice the
length of the branches. Tho person
who buys troos from tho nurserymen
may think he obtains about all the
roots with the trees, but he does not
get one-half of them. From what I
know of other vegetables, I believe
that potatoes of vigorous growth send
out roots threo feet in every direction
where they aro not opposed by some
Impediment, and that if thore is richer
soil or manure within four foet of
whore they nre planted they will start
for that tho first thing, and reach it in
a short time, Tho man who manures
one row of potatoes and leaves tho
noxt without any manure as an expe
riment, to find out the value of com
mercial fertilizers, makes as great a
mistake as tho one who put his money
into a contribution box, thinking it a
Ravings bank. If you manure one row
of potatoos, the next row will steai
part of the manure unless you Inter
pose an impassable barrier of boiler
plate or chilled Iron. Cor. Rural New

PHOSPHORIC ACID.

bjr 1. KiiwrlmrnU.
In one regard tho various ex pert
inent stations of the country are doing
valuable service to farmers, and that
Is In the line of thinking, studying and
experimenting for themselves. IVof.
Johnson, of the Connecticut State Ex
periment Station, stated at the recent
farmors' convention that it was gratify
ing to mark the progress that hiid
Imajo mado among fanners in the last
twonty-tlvo years. That whereas at
ono time talk upon fertilizers nnd ford
ing rations was as (ir.n-k almost to the
average farmer, ho can to-day talk In
telligently upon these subjects, and
A etm them with credit to himself.
It Is far better that this is so. In
oaiise the farmer ha actual practice
to deal with, and It Is frequently Um
case that scientific theory require,
some modification In order to corre
spend with practice; and tho Intel
ligent farmer who understands scien
tific declarations, and can judge of the
ciiii-t and results which he obtains,
can not only adopt any particular
mode of procedure to tho necessities
of the enso. but can also point out the
probable point In which science Is In
correctly Interpreted.
ror somo time thore hnvo been
tables In existence arranged by the
(orman scientists In tho course of
their experimentation, giving the
amount of manorial substances taken
from tho soli by average crops of vari
ous kinds. By thoso it appears that
phosphoric acid Is quite largely re
quired In tho production of grain;
ihat is, the tables show a considerab'.;,
larger projMirtion of phosphoric acid
in the grain of crops than in the
straw, with the exception of corn,
where the percentage of phosphoric
acid in tho grain is given as five and
line-tenths, and of corn-stalks as live
nnd three-tenths, und In buckwheat,
where the grain has five and soven
tenths nnd tho straw six and one
tonths; tho other grains range from
over five to nearly twelve, with a
range of two to throe and five-tenths
in tho straws. Whether this propor
tion is true regarding buckwheat, it
is yet difficult to determine, but there
is an experiment with regard to corn
that seems to denote a limit to the
valuo of phosphoric acid for the pro
duction of grain.
In a held that had not been cropped
for some time, with the exception of
tho previous year to buckwheat, the
soil was Supplied with an amount of
nitrogen and potash estimated to be
sufficient for tho production of an
average crop of corn, tho nitrogen in
tho form of sulphate ot ammonia, and
potash as hi',h grade muriate, being
spread broadcast after tho ground was
plowed, and well harrowed in. Upon
one section of one-sixteenth of an acre
dissolved bono black was employed at
the rate of two hundred ami lift.v-six
pounds per aero, another with noth
ing. Another with double tho quantity
of bone black, and still another with
nothing. Tho nothing plots were near
ly identical in their yield, giving only
a small quantity of grain, as well as
small stalks, but there were some pe
culiar feature! with the other two
p'ots. Tho ono with tho lossor quan
tity of the bone black, which contained
tho olomont phospho: Ic acid, gave a
good development of stalks, while they
produced well-developed and well
cured cars of corn, many stalks
furnishing two ears perfectly capped
over. In the case of tho larger quan
tity of phosphoric ncid there was I
consujprably increased growth of
stalks, being in tho proportion of
V2C7.2 for an acre to 3745.6 of the
former quantity, while the yield ol
,-ars of corn was nctually less; the
onrs were somewhat la-gor, but
scarcely a stalk had two ears, and the
proportion was H7H7.2 to 3!K)-..4 of
the former. This would seem to in
dicate that so far as the chemical use
of phosphoric acid is concoi ned there
is a limit in grain production, and
that beyond that point it only serves
toglvo an increase of fodder, the econ
omy of which is questionable. W. II.

Webster as a Financier.
Daniel Webster onco found a good
way of getting rid of a borrower the
best ono, indeed, on lecord, for, like
tho man who bought the cloth for
,hirts, he killed two birds with one
stone.
"Webster." said Hufus Choate one
day, "I want to borrow $500 and 1
wish you'd lend It to me."
l hnvon't tho money to-day. Mr.
Choate." said Webster, "but you give
me your note and I can get it cashed
for vou."
Gratified beyond measure Choate sat
down to write his note.
"By the way, Choate," said Webster,
in an otT-hand way, "you might as
well make that note for $1,000, and I
can use 608 myself."
Certainly," said Choate, cheer
fully, and ho signed a note for an even
$1,000.
Then tho immortal Daniel sauntered
down to a banker's office.
-Ah! any thing I can do for you to
day, Mr. Webster?"
"Can you discount a note of fl.OOO
for mo?"
"With pleasure."
Tho great statesman pocketed l.w"
in bills, gave $501 to Choate. who wa
effusive in his thanks, and kept the
other f 600 himself.

Without railroads, three-quartern of
tho United States would uow bo a

great portions of other continents.
Every body travels on the railroad,
and a railroad train is a familiar sight
that never grows old.
But how many of the millions who
travel know what tho railroad signals
mean? The majority do not bother
their heads nlmut tho matter, and a
large minority vaguely wonder why
there should be so much tooting and
swinging of lanterns, all of which is
no doubt essential, but nt tho same
time very confusing to the unluiliated
passenger.
Perhaps this nrticlo may serve to
clear up the mystery, M the data Is
taken from tho "Standard Code,"
text book fo- railway men.

Greed signifies "cuution go slow

Two white flags by day and two
white lights by night, carried in the
same manner, denote that the train is

A blue flag by day nnd a blue light
by.night, placed on the end of a car.
denotes that ear inspectors are at work
under or alsnit the cur or train, ami
must not be coupled to or removed
until the blue signal is removed.
Lamp signals are made as follows:
A lamp swung 10 COM tho track is
the signal to stop.
A lamp raised and lowered vertical
ly is the signal to move ahead.
A lamp swung vertically In a circle
across the track, when the train is
standing, is the signal to move back.
A lamp swung Vertically in a circle
at arm's length across the track, when
tho train Is running, is the signal that
the train has parted.
A flag or the hand moved In any of
the directions given above will indicate
the same signal as given by this lamp.
