prOlificness and excellence for the ia
ble and for marketing.
Next to the Early Rose I would re-
commend the White Peach Blow, in
those sections where it will succeed
The White Peach Blow, as a winter
potato, has no equal, as is proved by
the higher price which it commands
in the markets. Unfortunately it is
not very sure bearer in our warm
and dry climate. It's uncertainty
causes il to be laid aside for the Peer
less-a potato that possesses many ex-
cellent qualities, but which. as table
potato, is inferior to the Peach Blow
Still, where the Peach Blow cannot be
successfully cultivated, | wOuld recon-
mend the Peerless. Its fine size, its
attractive appearance, its hardness
wherever it has been tried 1t sells
well in the Southern markets, but not
so well as the Early Rose or Peach
Blow.

Beauty is indeed beautiful. We have
it under trial this year.
One word more. If you want to
cultivate potato that will sell in the
markets it must be of good sound ap.
pearance, and above all, it must pre-
sent a smooth aud even surface. No
potato will sell with the eyes deeply
sunk below the surface. Our old Long
Jacks and the Keebler or California
Potato will yield to the acre rs much
as any potato, but owing to their
rough appearance they are worthless
for marketing. The seed Of any va
riety should be renewed every three
years from potatoes grown in the

THE BOXDHOLDER NOW
HIGHER THAN THE STATE.

AT length we have it conceded
that there is trouble in Virginia
over the public debt. Even that
concession is worth something
and if we go back little into the
temperate domain of reason it will
very quickly appear that where
there is popular unrest there is po-
litical oppression. Those who
charge that all the dissatisfaction
about the public debt is due to
dishonesty, are welcome to the "a
gument, for.it will be as fruitlcss
rs it is false. There are reasons for
all this trouble. 1t is fact that
we have lost control of the debt,
and VIC can never feel free or safe
until we regain it. The bondhol-
der has perpetual execution on
everything in the Commonwealth.
If he chooses we cannot run the
State government day until he be
paid. In 1871 he induced our
legislature to confess Judgment in
the name Of the people and to
clothc him with power to levy up
on the whole public revenue to the
extent Of his claim. This unwise
set placed the bondhelder higher
than the Commonwealth, for un~
der it the State must pay or it must
die. That this result has not obtains
ed s due to no charity on the part
of the creditor, but to the resis-
lance of the people. 1t is fact
that the Funding Bill is not rigid
~ executed and the fact that it is
not is the reason the bondholdcr
and his friends make all of this I'M
earthly noise. Very well it has
aroused the people to a sense of
their danger, and now the issue is
fairly joined. The people viii he
told their condition under this
abominabIe measure, and they
shall have the exact status of the
public debt If we mistake not
they mean to regain control OF the
situation, so that the State must be
