gloss and freshness Of yonth. Thin
hair is thickened, falling hair checked,
and badness often, though not always,
cured by its use. Nothing can restore
the hair where the follicles are de-
stroyed, or the glands atrophied and
decayed; but such as remain can be
saved by this application, and stimu-
lated into activity, so that new
growth Of hair is produced. Instead
of fouling the hair with a pasty sedi-
ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
It's occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray Or falling off, and
consequently prevent badness. The
restoration of vitality it gives to the
scalp arrests and prevents the forma-
ton of dandruff, which is often so I'M
clearly and offensive. Free from those
deleterious substances which make
seme preparations dangerous and iniu-
rious to the hair, the Vigor can only
benefit but not harm it. If wanted
merely for HAIR DRESSING,
nothing else can be found so desirable.
Containing neither oil nor dye, it does
not soil white cambria, and yet lasts
long on the hair, giving it a rich, glossy
lustre, and grateful perfume.

Planting Whole and Cut Potatoes

I DR.. Hexamer, of New York, in a
result Of an experiment of planting
the pototo in seventeen different
ways, found that the best result
were given from one large potato,
whole, in each hill, the next best
from two large half potatoes cut
lengthwise; next the seed end of a
large potato; next from medium
sized potatoes planted whole; the
smallest from small half potatoes.
A medium potato he plants whole;
large ones cut in halt and the largest
in four pieces, each lcngthwise,
always taking care to select his
best and soundest potatoes for
seed.
J. A. Warder, Of Ohio, in an ex-
Ieriment with Harrisons, found
that large seed cut in halves gives
the most saleable potatoes. He
says: "This experiment, in con-
nection with one made last year,
would induce me to cut good, sale
ablc-sized potatoes for seed in pre-
ference to planting them whole;
and in years of scarcity to use small
potatoes, with care not to plant
them too closely together"
Prof. Daaiels, Of the Wisconsin
Agricultural College, in an expert
ment found that cut seed gave more
from the same weight of seed, ex-'
cept where small potatoes were used,
than whole ones did. The whole
potatoes produced the most vigor-
Gus plants, those cut, the least.

open, small wound will heal over
quicker at that than any other
time.
1t would not be fair to omit an
objection to February pruning. 1t
invariably produces more suckers,
than trimming at any other time in
the year, but the production of
sprouts is much smaller evil than
a permanent injury to the constitu-
ton of the tree.
TO presume to give any rule for
the formation of a top by pruning
would be absurd, further than to
take out cross limbs, and open the
head sufficiently to admit a free
circulation of air and full supply
of light.
Another important point is to cut
smoothly at the top Of the swell or
collar at the base of the limb.

In Germany, where potatoes are
so much cheaper than grain, the
experiment has been repeatedly
tried Of feeding horses upon them
ut least, in parts; and this, it is said
has proved quite successful. In
In one instance five four-hors e
teams were kept hard at work and
in good condition on q days ration
for tw enty horses, Of one and one
half hundred weight Of hay, eight
bushels Of potatoes, fifty pounds of
meal, and Il liberal allowance of
chopped straw. The potatoes were
steamed, mashed, and mixed with
meal while hot, and then covered
up and allowed to remain for time
during which they underwent a
81 ght fermentation and evolved u
quantity of carbonic acid. The
chopped straw was worked in just
before feeding. his trial was
continued for more than four months
and found to agree with the horses,
while at the same time it proved
satisfactory in point Of economy:
As this food must be sweet and
clean, great care is necessary to
prevent the vessels in which it is
kept from becoming sour.
