which the stake has been remordO, IT* the rexits are to remain in tbe ground a few days. The wisdom of allowing the roots to remain in the ground wills depend upon '‘rcumsunces. If the season is very wet. secondary growth from the new eyes may start and thla will be detrimental. so the rooU should be dug at once. It the season Is | not too wet.

careful handling.

After a few days the roots may he dug. «nd this is an operation requiting much care. Many varieties produce tuberous roots with long -necks, a ad the straining of these , necks is likely to cause loss. Two people arc required to do a first-class Job of digging, although one person can do It bv using two" forks. If the origlBal tuber or plant was set deep, the best plan -Is to remove some of the soil -from over the clump. Then the fork or forks should be thrust vertically Into the soil at a distance of 12 to 16 Inches from the stalk, each time preasing the handle backward so that the soli if loosened Just a little. In this way a complete circuit of the stalk is made Two forks are then thrust vertically into the soil ipposlle sides. By pressing upon these simultaneously, the clump of roots, already partly loosened can be lifted out with little harm. If one person Is doing the Job alone, he can handle one fork with hi* hands and press upon the other with his foot The beat plan is to allow as much soil as will adhere to remain, as this will help to keep the roots together and so avoid damage. When the clumps are lifted out. It seems desirable to place them on their sides so that excessive moisture In the stalks

may drain out.

We were further Impressed with this fact the other day when he explained to us how and where he obtained his potato seed for next year. Mr. Madara ha* friends living on tbe Eastern Shore Virginia who plant several th-_ sand barrels of potatoes annually. stalk. In this way, the air can work upon the surfaces of the sulk and dry It out. The stall's on all clumps should be cut back to 2 or .3 Inches and should then he allowed to dry out thoroughly before storing. Care needs to bo exercised that the tubers do not shrivel. This can be prevented by putting n little moisture on

the soil. •

Tbe method of storing will vary with condition?. Where many clumps are harvested it may be necessary to construct a separate storage room. Any place where potatoes or-apples will not shrivel should be good for dahlias. The temperature of the storage room should be kept at about su degrees, and the room should he well ventilated. Sometimes, when conditions are ideal, the clumps are simply plied up with no covering. If the temperathre is apt to run a little high, or If It is too dry. a covering of fresh, clean sand may be

advisable.

In a small way, the clumps may be stored In boxes or barrel*. These are lined wiih a number of thicknesses of newspaper, tbe clumps put In and a cover put on. These containers are set as far as possible away from the furnace. A small storage room can be

A. L. .appelner. who conducts, the Nick Poultry .Farm at Palermo, has an excellent lot of pui . lets this year and he is getting a. splendid production from them, j Mr. Tappeinor keeps nothing but pullets as layers, disposing of all birds after their first year. We have noticed that Mr. Tappcinor keeps the poultry runs well worked and has everything around bis I poultry plant about as sanitary a« jmsslble. No doubt these are two factors which attribute largely to his success as a poultryman. Chamberlain Brothers, of Cold 1 Spring, are making some extensive Improvements.
