Why Potatoes Run Out.

Some one asks why it is that potatoes
so soon run out. There are two grand
reasons. There are few potatoes in a
hill that are fit for seed. Some are over
grown, coarse and rank. and will not
transmit the original full developed seed.
A potato of medium size, perfect in all
its parts, with change of ground, will pro.
duce it like al mfnitum. One other
reason is cutting potatoes between stem
and seed end continually. This practice
will completely demOralize the institution.
1t requires the stem and seed end both to
make a perfect seed. If cut, let it be cut
lengthwise. Single eyes will run out any
p tato. There is no seed that will bear
mutilatiOn like the potato the only won.
der is that it does not run out COM
pletely.

Of course no gardener wound ever
think Of trellising an acre Of tomatoes,
hut we do not know of any one little
thing that pays better in private gardens
than than Of giving the tomato vines some
kind of a support. 1t makes but little
practical difference what particular sup
port is used. anything that will keep the
vines from sprawling out Of bounds and
looking ~sloyenly, that will keep the plant
up, where one can see how to trim out
superauous growth. is q great COMFORT
Besides these advantages, the fruit is less
liable to rot, is in sight when malformed
specimens can be cut out, and is always
clean. Another consideration is the
greater ease in sworn" or killing the vo>
racious green caterpillar; indeed, if a
trellis of some kind is nce used, one will
always be used thereafter, If one will
look back through our volumes he will
find yerious devices. from three hoops and
three stakes to held them up, to more
elaborate frameworks. Our present OBJ
ject is to remind the reader to have some.
thing in readiness. Set the trellis be-.
fore the plants are put out, and begin to
train to it early, Just here we would
remind those who like to amuse them
selves IN the garden. that a tomato vine
with a good bit of manure at its roots
and trained against q barn. shed, or other
building by means Of loops of strong
cloths and tacks, will make a display that
will astonish those who have never seen
a tomato thus treated. not only in the
quantity of fruit, but the exceeding
beauty Of the whole plant -dmericaa

his recovery impossible. A council ofable

OF human remedies, that even amputation
could not save him, as he had not vigOr
enough to endure the operation. Just then

from that time TO the present lac has been
continuously improving. lie has lately
resumed studies, throwing away crutches
and cane, and walks about cheerfully and
strong.
Though there is still some discharge from
the opening where the limb was Ianced,
we have the fullest confidence that in "A
little time he will be perfectly cured.
He has taken about three dozen bottles

he declares that he is too well to be taking
