Ice Water in Hot Weather.
In reviewing the parade on Memi- sti
orial Day Giovernor Morton sudden- to
1y fainted. le reciperated, and 01
showed much energy, but in a con- th
versatioln attributed the attack, is
vhich lj' called aicute4- illdig(a3tionl, U
to two ghsses of ice water. Secre- 811
tary Wiidom killed himself by w
drinking ice water at the close of t'l
his speech before the Chamber of B
Commerce. No person wheni heated lh
should swallow ice wiater until the Li
heat of his umou1th ha,1s taken the it
chill from the wiater. of
SoNe years ago the opilions of i
ahbouti thirty physicialns vere given. fr
A little less than half said the use m
of ice water by persons who are SC
heated is danger'o us ; the other half
said it is not so-a fair statement. of
the diversity aiong physicianLs col
lected inl that way. But that any
peison who understands physiology, la
especially the relition of the sVIpa- I
thetic system to tle brain, and "
through 'it to the Iiu ngs andt([ heart., pa
caln believe that pouring water at a*.
teiperature of a little above thiirty- -
two degrees inti the stomnach, the Ile(
normal temperature of which is
iiearly ane hundred, can he other- ml

knowledge has miuch less inlunence th

generally supposed. 1.1
Ice water, other iced drinks, and hI
ice cream, takei slowly and in mod- w
erate quantity whieii One has partly (
cooled, are not injurious. That some v
constitutions can einduire ice water 0

I have always remembered the
remark of a singing-sehool teacher :
under whose. instruct.ion I sat. wlenl
young. lie was at. that tim a lirge,
strong man with full chest, lut ii
giving his pullils the dilvicek to
pra~ctalce deepi breathuing, dechziredI
that he had Ien at. one tilm a co-l

deep breath ing. I have fqollowed
his advice more or less, and e-dit
the health anld sonimd ness of inv
lungs part.ly to that, and lio doIIIht
my1v entire freedom from sick ness fmr

pracetice.
I would not claim for deep breatIih

More weeks sEooner, iaad a good stand,
and made a niueh hetter yield. I In.
tenid trying the Salon experiluilt this
year, with one thue' idu itional. Last
yOur, after gathering our July crop, ]
I planted a portion of the ground in
dwarf or bunch beans. We had been i
caroful to ge out all the potatoes I
possible, yet in a short time after the
beans got up, the potatoes cameo up also
(volunteers) and mado at the rate of c
ovor a hundred bushels to the acre ; l
so as I dig, this soason, I will In
mediately plant another crop of whole
seed, about the size of a "hca 199 egg. t
Small seed, and even very small seed c
will imake potatoes but they are later
in maturing and the averago size will I
be very much smalicli. lRoasoning v
from observation, I would cover the s
second Crop very shallow. You will
almost always lind that a "1 volunteer " v
potato Is ci ter only partialy covered, I
or is very near to the surfuce.
My rule is to make a wide, deep fur
row and cover with a very small plow 5
Pr the eor'nei of i hoo, leaving top of
ridge below the level of the general t
surface. At, the first working, this
furrow will be filled, and in so doIing I
the plant will be hilled.
One other matter. If you have a
variety that will mature in eight to
ten weeks, and another that will take
twelve to fotei'Lenim, always plant the
Secold (.1rop with the early variety. If I
fromi any causo they are late in getting
up, the early kind may make ev'en a
half crop, while the late variety would
intalke nothing. 'Thie same variety
plante'd in July or August will mature
a week to ten days earlier, than when
planted in leblary oi larcl.
I have just planted half a peck of a
new kind that, it is said, noverl fails to
grow. and will continue to gro)w until
friOSt, and Will kC), without sprouting I
until the next June or .July, and be I
ready for another late crop, I aiim
looking forward with great interest to -
the result of this ex perimelit.
In 1892, 1 grew forty-seven valrieties.
In 1893, and 1891, these, ."Cre incr'eased
to over eighty. I also began in 1892
suindiy fert-ilizer. cultivation and other
experiments. Most of these. having
