Cut bolea in the aide of mis, and place one end in the ground Lay straw all around the "pipe" and, >n thin lu> the potatoes, and pile tltetn up in :■ pyramidal form to the top of tly* | ' pipe." Then get straw and lay ov'r them, also corn-stalks, pretty heavily, aud throw on dut until the pile is cov ered good—at least sis inches. Do not cover the top of the ''pipe" for two or tiiree weeks, so that the steam arising I rum the potatoes can escape. At the fiist intimation of cold weather cover the "pipe" but always open it in good weath or. To yet into this "bank," as we oall it, siuij ly nnke a hole in the south side to put your hand in, but keep it ootored always, "when not in use." By this method a small family can, with very little trouble, keep all their potatoes through the winter.— F. B. F. What Are Onions "Worth. Not the price per bushel but their value iu a family. They are GOOD FOR THK CROUP. Roasted onions saved a boy's life who was dangerously siak with that fearfully dangerous quick disease It waß a long road to a doctor's office ; so the mother was obliged to rely upoo home remedies to save ber child The oohns were thoroughly roasted A part made into a pouliioe and laid upon his ohest, and from the remainder the juioe was extracted and giveu him, which gave immediate relief and effeoted a cure.

We uie ition this simply to show thai men have sonju advantages over women. Curran once said to Father Leary : "T wi«h, reverend father, that yon were St. Peter, and had the keys of Heaven because then you could let me in." The shrewd and witty priest saw the saicasm, and turned its (harp edge on the sceptic by replying : "By my honor and conscience, sir, it-would be better fur you if 1 had the %eya of the other place, for then 1 oould let you out." AN UNEXPECTED COMPETITOR Several men swam the Mississippi river, above New Orleans, on a wager. A reporter of the race says: "None of them seemed to be puttiog forth much effoit till it was discovered that an alligator ..ad struck out from shore as a competitor, and then—well, every man did his beet u> keep the alligator £ro* carrying off the stakes."

KKNDAI.L & Co., Gents : In reply to your letter I will say that uiy experience with 'Kendall's Spavin Cure' has been very satisfactory indeed Three or four years ago 1 procured a bottle ot your agent, and with it, cured a horse of lameness caused by a spavin. Last sea son uiy horse became very Uaie and I turned him out for a few weeks when he became better, but when I put him on the road he grew worse, when I discover ed that a ringbone was forming, I pro cured a bottle of Kendall's Spavin Cure and with less than a bottle cured him so that be is not lame, neither oan the bunch be found.

I have used ten bottles The horse is entirely well, not at all stiff, and no bunch to bo seen or felt. This is a wonderful medicine. In is a new thing here, but if it does for all what it has done for me its sale will be very groat. Kespectfully yours, Chab K. PARKKR. KENDALL'S SPAVIN CURE. Kelley's Island, Erie County, Ohio.

Miller, South Fork towDship, | Forsyth county, North Carolina, writes July 6th, 1880:—My lands are light grey, not good for wheat. Two years ago I sowed, but uiy wheat was so ir.fling that I did uot it. This year 1 sowed the same lands and put one sack ol' the Star Brand Wheat Manure per sore and reaped about teo bushels good wheat per acre. The fertilizer uiade it do all it did do. . I got my wheat iu 100 late and it was | tbin from pasturing. lam arraugiug to I use one ton Star Brand this tall on wheat j and am glad to be a le to rucouiuiend it j to uiy neighbor farmers. llev T S lling, Kernersville, Forsyth county, North Carolina, writes, July 7ih. 1880:—I have used the Star Brand Wheat Manure the last two years ; the first year it was entirely satisfactory, the last year my wheat suffered the blight of the soas«o,but this could uot be attributed to auy loult ol the fertilizer, tor u was as good again as the siauie qualify of laud, sowed at tlie saint time, which was not fertilized. Value of Ghass —Mr Jesse Morris, . of Walkertowu, Fotsyth eouuty, North Carolina, writes, July 7th, 1880: —I would nut be without uiy little ?pot ol orchard grass and clover, which 1 have hud in lor thirty years, for thirty dollars a year and mere is hardly one half an acre of it. lam old now, but 1 wish I j could persuade the y >uog folks to try this grass; it will prevent washing ind j make the ground rich where yo sow it. j Mr. R. W.Hedgecock, Winston, North Carolina, writes, July 7th, 1880:—1 used Star Brand Wheat Manure on my wheat crop last full, whil-h was sown ou old field; it grew rauk and fine, and ' notwithstanding a late hard fretzo hurt j it badly, I made more than an average er>p I expeot to use five bags this tall on uiy wheat and sow Orchard Grass and Clover with the wheat. \ Dr L. G. Hunt, Huntsville, Yadkin county, Nortji Carolina, writes, June 30th, ISBO :—1 u«ed two sacks of the Star Braud Wheat Manure last fall. The crop doubled itself. The laud ou which I used the Star Brand would not, within itself, yield five bushels to the acre, but by tbe use of the Star Brand I got ten busbel* to one aowiug of good pluinp wheat. 1 am going to use it again this fall. H. C. Edwards, Kcruersville, Norih Carolina, writes, July 15th, 1880:—I used twelve sacks Star Brand Fertilizer on fifteen acres of wheat sown on very thin laud. 1 made a good crop; it more than doubled tbe yield and 1 have a good stand of clover on the land I think it paid me vjry well to use it.

Its standard and I uniformity are guaranteed. The result of its application tothe wheat crop for the last tvilve years has proved it to be equal lo any fertilizer ever sold in the United St ties. During this time thousands of tons of it have been used by the farmers ol Virginia and North Carolina with highly satisfactory results. We recommend it, because— It is rich in Soluble Phosphate and Ammonia. It affords a constant supply of plant food. It contains no inert matter. ' It insures a stand of gra-s or clover. H id au improver and renovator of worn-out lands. T It is fine, diy, and in the b«rt c ndition for drilling. It contains an ample quantity of all the elements necessary to make wheat, and a large surplus which w ill show itself upon the clover and grass, aud m the improvement of the 1 land. It is prepared from the best and inost approved materials, and in the most careful and thorough manner, and under our personal supervision . Its ouuiderd and uniformity are guaranteed. What -ver may be the merits of other fertilizers, no one can go wrong in'uslng one which which is so well made, is so fully guaranteed, anl has been so and so thoroughly tested. APPLICATION : We recommend the application of from 100 to 300 pounds per acre— drilled in with the wheat, if practicable. If the drill is not used, the land should be ploughed and karrowtrt until fine and free from clods, and the wheat anil guano harrowed in. lultowing with the loller. This mixes the manure with the soil, and keeps it near the surface just where the roots of the wheat will find il easiest. When sowed on land ploughed but uul harrowed, much o l ' the guano goes down iu tbe openings between the tunow slices, aud does little or no good.
