Root says in his +" Garde, Manual"
that it is, when by carelessness or igno-
rance plants have been drawn and made
spindling and sickly things, that the mis-
trust of hot-bed plants has arisen. Ear
illness in fruiting, stockiness in shape,
and hardness in exposure, are all pro-
noted by frequent transplanting. Each
removal induces new growth of roots,
thus more fully insuring the survival of
the plant at removal; it also induces great
er stockiness OF habit, and serves as a spe-
cies of root-pruning, thereby inducing
earlier fruiting.
A correspondent Of one of our ex-
changes gives the following method of
breaking Oft growing sprouts and pre-
venting them from sprouting: Put from
three pecks to a bushel Of potatoes in a
barrel and shake them briskly till the
sprouts are broken Oft. Ii takes but a
minute and covers them with moisture
which prevents willing and keeps them
fresh longer than if sprouted by hand.

constituent when set to sprout potatoes in
this way, as they do more in an hour
than they have ever done before in day.
When we have but few potatoes, we
sometimes keep them, bushel in bar
rel through the spring and summer,
shaking them frequently to prevent
sprouts from growing.-Ohio Farmer
A correspondent of the Rural World
says: :" see that copperas is recommend
ed as being the best thing to keep cut
worms from injuring the corn. This ac-
cords with my experience, and i will give
in detail my plan of preparing the cop
peras for use. After my land is fitted and
ready for planting, take at the rate of
one and half pounds of copperas for
every bushel of corn wish to plant, and
dissolve it in water. At the same time l
put to soak bushel of corn in tub. At
night put the copperas water into the
tub containing the corn. AS soon as we
get up in the morning ! pour the water
off, and let the corn drain until after
breakfast, when l either roll it in land
plaster (Which is BEST, or in sitted wood
ashes, to dry it. The copperas is cheap,
costing only six or seven cents pound
by the quantity, and think it acts as
stimulant to the plant also. find that a
bushel of corn will plant about five acres,
when the rows are three and half feet
apart each way.
