Potato Diggers.

It would seem that the successful potato
digger is yet a thing Of the future; not that
this branch of the agricultural implement
trade has been by an ymeans neglected, but
because of the difficulties with which the
inventor has to contend. Probably the best
and most practical result that will ever be
attained will be in an implement which
will uncover the tubers and leve them on
the surface; any attempt to pick them by
machinery involves the construction of ar
implement which ca distinguish between
the tuber and stone of the same size. This
can hardly be attained, and hence the idea
that any attempt to do more than simply
dig or uncover the crop will lead to loss Of
money and time We doubt whether any
thing really better than the common pillow
has yet been found. Not having tried more
than two or three of the many implements,
we base onr theory upon the fact that those
who have for many years grown this crop
on an extensive scale would not be slow to
discover and appreciate any real improve
ment on the implement now in common
use; we find these men using the plow, and
ence the inference. Some of our potato
hrowinR neighbors still insist that good
careful hand with shovel is the most
economical, and that the tubers left in the
eground when the pillow is used will pay for
more care

light upon the subject. An old actor, who
was quite intimate with the dead tragedian
during his lifetime, and, neing resident of
Philadelphia, has since been cognizant of
the manner in which matters have been
managed, informs us that there is no ready
will 1t will be remembered that 500, 600
were paid to Mrs. Sinclair in lieu of dover,
and that the bulk of the property left by
Mr.. Forrest was in real estate. The proper
ty at the corner of Broad and Master streets,
in Philadelphia, is in dilapidated condit
ion and the taxes upon if are heavy. The
real estate in Cincinnati, Ohio, can not be
sold for any price approximating its origi
nal cost, and the same may be said Of the
other real property left by him. The gen.
tleman who wrote the recent biography of
the deceased actor, we are told, was paid
s. 900 for his services, and that he present
ed a written order for that amount [signed
by Edwin Forrest during his lifetime to
the executors of the will and that they paid
it, also that they were obliged to pay the
publisher of the work $4,000 before he
would touch it. So long as the executors
finds that they can not raise sufficient mon
ey from the estate to properly carry out the
provisions of the will they do not feel u.s.
titled in receiving more inmates at the
Home, as that would only increase the ex.
penses and add to the present embarrassing
condition of affairs.
