In TROUBLE AGAIS.-F. P. Sullivan,
who only recently succeeded in getting
rid of an ugly charge of robbery, was
arrested yesterday evening for obtaining
possession of a mule by means not re-
garded as the most honorable ever
recorded. Sullivan claims to be highly
respectable man, and thinks the press
occasionally too severe on him. Seme-
how he wiU revolve into the courts on
such triAing charges as robbery and
stealing. He is either scaly or the most
bitterly prosecuted individual in the
country.

AMERICAN WATCH COMP nv
. -as t4fuE.ritT gi OF -saI .if r. 10
z?g WALTHAM, MASS. gi-7

THIS Company beg leave to inform the public
that they commenced operations in 1850. and their
fac ory now covers four acres of ground, and has
cost more than million dollars, and employs over
700, operatives. They produce 75OoO Watches q
year. and make and sell not less than half of all
the w atches sold in the United States. saa -1. ID
The difference between their manufacture and
the European, is briefly this: European Watches
are made almost entirely 6yAdnd and the result is
dispensable to correct time-keeping. Both thee
and the hand of the most skillful operative must
vary. But it is q fact that except Watches of the
higher grades, European Watches are the product
of the cheapest labor Of Switzerland and the result
is the worthless Ancres Lepines and so called Pat
ent Levers-which 500 cost more in attempted re-
pairs, th an their original price. Common sorkmen
boys and women, buy the rough separate parts of
these = hes from various factories, polish and
put them together. and take them, to the nearest
Watch merchant, who stamps and engrayes them
with any name or brand that may be prdered.ob IN
HOW AMERICAN WATCHES ARE MADE,
The Am erican Waltham Watch is made by no
such uncertain process--and by no such incompe-
tent workmeno All the Company's operations: from
the reception of the materials to the completion
of the W ateb are carried under one roof, and
under one skiIlful and competent direction. But
the great distinguishing feature Of their Watches
is the fact that their several parts all made by
the finest. the most perfect and de,ieate machinery
: ever broughtto h. aid of human industry. Every
one of the more than @ hundred parts of every
Watch is made by q machine-that infallibly re-
produces every succeeding part with the most un-
varying accuracy. twas only necessary to make
one perfect atch of any particular style and then
to adjust the hundred machines necessary to re-
produce every part of that Watch. and it follows
that every succeedir Watch must be tikei .F.-

Efect Of Sol Upon Potatoeg.


CogmaB'S Rur0t World says soil has an
influence upon potatoes aside from their
growth. Some sofia light sandy loan
will produce mellowness where it is want
ing, and improve it where il exists. Ma
nure is hurtful to the quality. and especial
ly to the flavor Of potatoes. Hence a soil
sufficiently rich should never have manure
for potatOes-and a very rich soil is not
required for this tuber. A rank growth of
potatoes will give a rank taste. The sams
potatoes raised on alig ht natural soil, where
the only manure has been vegetable-for
instance the carbonaceous matter of new
land-will be improved. This accounts
for the diversity of opinion in regard to
the different kinds of potatoes. The Gar
net Chill is condemned by some. We
have just heard man pronounce against
them, who gave the preference to other
kinds, among which the Peach Blow is one,
He had ''no luck with the Garnets last
year" He raises his potatoes in soil ma
nured from the horse stable. His neighbor
has just the reverse opinion. He raised
his where little or no manure had been
used-some on a discontinued strawberry
bed, where saw dust had been applied for
mulching, and afterwards worked into the
soil, and rotten when the potatoes were
grown. This was vegetable manure, and
made the difference between the two crops.
There is another element of great value
in the potatoe crop: it is lime. It is pro-
badly better than anything that can be
used. This in connection with vegetable
manure on a light sandy loan, well drain
ed, viii insure The best crop. 1t will yield
largely, as well as of the best quality. On
such soil there is. also less rot. A moist
soil is always to be avoided if quality is to
be considered, For feeding. purposes, a
rank growth is probably preferable, as
more potatoes are generally produced.
The soil should not only be light and
loose, but The seed should be well down 10
the ground, not raised in ridges. Five or
six inches below the level ofthe soil will
give more moisture-in other words, with
stand drouth better than when elevated
above this level, giving chance for the
air more eaeeaually to dry the soil in which
the potatoes are embedded.
Never hin potatoe-or, If killing be
done, do it after shower, soon as the

thing that is much neglected. We do not
