MARKETING POTATO CROPS.
In Uno with the classic case of the
' oyster shippers , cited by Pl'esldent
! . . J' ' ' Hadley of Yale University In his book
) . on RaUroad Transportation , Is the ca.se
of the Aroo s tool , pota.to growers
brought by President Tuttle of the !
Boston and Maine RaUroad beto1'o the
I Senate Committee on Interstate Com-
, merce. Nothing could better show
bow a railroad works for the Interest
of tbe localities which It serves.
A main dependence of the farmers
of the Aroostook region Is the potato
crop , aggregating annually eight to
ten m11110n bushell' , which find a mal" "
, ket largely In Boston and the adjacen
. " thickly settled regions of New Eng-
, land. The competition of cheap water
transportation from Maine to all points
I . along the New England coast leops
l - ' raUroad freight rates on these potatoes -
toes always at a very low level.
' Potatoes are also a considerable out-
'I t put of the truck farms of Miohlgan ,
their normal market being obtained in
'
I , and through Detroit and Chicago and
: J other communities of that region.
n ' . Not many years ago favoring lun
I ' ' , , ' " and rains brought a tremendous , .Ield
I , ; of potatoes from the Michigan fields.
" At normal raten and prices there
1 , ; would have been a glut of the custom.
I' ' , ar , . markets and 'the potatoes would
; ' , . ' : _ have rotted on the farms. To help
: f , , , , , i , ' the potato growers the railroads from
" , , ' , ' " . ' Michigan made unprecedentedly low
_ _ _ . { : , rates on potatoes to every reachable
; . - market , oven carrying them In large
; Quantities to a place so remote as Dos-
ton. The Aroostook growers haa to I
reduce the vrlce on their potatoes and
'I ' even then could not dispose of them I .
unless the Boston and Maine Rnllroad
: reduced Its already low rate , which Ito
I . . . . -o\\ . , of' did. By means of these low rates ,
1J.i { / ; , making posBlble 'low prices , the potato
"r. i.A1 . crops of both Michigan and Maine
, " ; { ! : : were finally , marltcted. Everybody ,
: - ' ; .i " eats potatoes , and that year every- :
I : ; body had all the votatoes he wanted.
, , "I While the Michigan raUroads made 1
"
I J ' : ; ' : . ' rates that would have been ruinous to !
, - \ fM. ' the raUroads , had they been applied
I ; , to the movement of all potatoes at a11
I . - times , to all places , they helped their
: , ' patrons to find marltets then , The
Doston and Maine Railroad suUered : !
" decrelUie In Its revenue trom potatocs ,
l"
but It enabled the Aroostoolt farmera
, I to marltet their crop and thereby to
y obtain money which they spent for the
, varied supplies which the rallroadll
,
' brought to them. It the malting of
, ' rates were sUbject to governmental

The disinfection of clothing Is a
mi\tter which every uno should un-
derstand. Ortlrnnry boiling w111 destroy -
stroy nl1 sorts of dangerous germs.
The boiling should bo continued halt
o.n hour. Clothing which cannot be
boiled Sllould bo burned or disinfected
by sUlphur or formalin.
Rooms must be dlslnectel by the
lust'Dluned means and by thorough
scrubbing with strong , hot soapsuds.
Open doors and windows as widely
as posslblo GO nB to allow the admission -
sion of the largest possible amount of
light and Ufe freest circulation of air.
Remove the old paper from the
walls , nnd burn It. Wash the bare
walls with strong soapsuds , nnd then
apply whitewash to the coiling.
Cleanse the woodworle with 0. lIolution
of fresh chlorldo of limo , one pound

Remove the carpet , from the floor ,

pther fabrIc from the room , and thoroughly -
oughly disinfect them before replac-
Ing.
Ordinary scrubbing , whitewashing
and vontllatlon are tlROfll1 and necessary -
sary , but are not sufficient. Dillin-
fectlon Is required. One of the most
convenient one ! errootho means of dls ,
Infection ts fumigation by the burning
of common sulphur. The following is
the best method of doing this :
Into 0. tub or a largo dishpan pour
water to the depth of an inch. Place
In the vesllel two bricks laid flatwlse
and near together. Set upon the
brloks an old Iron kottle. Put Into
the kettle a proper quantity of flour
of sulvhur mixed with an equal quantity -
tity of pounded chnrcoal. The nmount
req lred Is four pounds for each ono
thousand cubic feet of nlr. Mix with
the sulphur and charcoal n few pieces
of newsp per. Betoro the sulphur Is
JJghted , 0.11 clothing and other articles
In the room should bo so disposed of
as to al10w the fumes of UtO sUlphur
t ( ) come In contact with them to the
tuu t extent. The emcl of the
fumigation Is allo very greatly increased -
creased by saturating the walls , and
ovorythlng the room contains , with
stoam. This may bo very readily
done by boiling water vigorously upon
Il. steve In the room tor an hour or two
previous to lighting the sulphur. Dry
sulphur fumes w1l1 deBtroy growing
germs , but not the dried spores which
may be col1ected upon waHs and in
cracks and corners. When all IB In I
readlnoss , light the sulphur , nnd leave
I
the room as soon as It Is evident that
It Is going to burn well. If the door
of the room communicates with other
rooms , the crncle around the door
must be tightly closed by pasting
thlok paper over It. The room must
bo lept closed tor twonty.four hours ,
at the end of which time It should bo
opened , and left to nlr tor nnothor
twenty.four hours , when It mal 'be
considered thoroughly disinfected.

Food for the Sick.
'I'hero is no branch of the cUlinary
art which roqulres 11101'0 skill than
thnt of proparlng footl for the slclt
and feoblo. The purpOBe of food nt
all times Is to supilly material for 1' &
pairing the was to Wl11ch Is constnnt.
ly going on In the vital econom ) ' ; and
hence it ought ahva"s to be chosen
with reference to Its nutritive valuo.
. Dut during I1Inells and convalescence ,
when the waste Is often much great.-
or nnd UlO vltnl JJOwers less active , It
is of the utmost Impo1'tanco that the
food should bo ot such character ns
w11l supply the , proper nutrlUon. No
is this o.tI ; nn artlclo ot food may
contain all the elements of nutrition
In such proportions ns to lender it a
. wholesome food for those In health ,
I nnd not be n proJJer food tor the slclc ,
for the reason that Its converBlon Into
blood anti tlssuo la's too great a tax
upon the dlgestlvo organs. Food for
the slcle should bo palatnble , nutrl.
tlous and easily nashnllated. To discriminate -
criminate as to what food will supply
these requlslt.es , one must posseSB
some lmowledge of dietetics and phys.
lology , M wall as of the nature of the
111ness with which the patient Is sut- .
ferlng ; nnd such a Imowlodge ought
to be part of the education of every
woman , no matter to what clnss of society -
ciety aho belongs.
Hot buttered tonat , tea , rich j01l101
nnd other dainties so commonly
served to the slcl" are usuaHy the
VfJry worst nrtlcles of diet which they
could partl1lto. As a rule , elaborate
dishes are not suitable.
Scrupulous neatness and care In nIl
the mlnuto l11rtlculars of the cooking
and serving of food for Invalids will
add much to Ita palatableness. The
clean navlln on Ule tray , the bright
silver nnd dainty china plato , with
perhaps a sprig of leaves nnd flowers -
ers beside it , thinly sliced brend , toaster
or cracltcrs nnd the light cup parUy
filled with hot gruel , are far moro ap.
'petlzlng to the luvalld thnn coarlo
ware , thickly cut bread nnd o. over.
. flowing CUIl of gruel , though the cODk-
Ing may bo just as perfect. Bo far as
practicable , the wants of the patlont
should bo nntlclpated , nnd the meal
served , n surprise.
