DATrT-RY News: The tomato is what
I NAV be called 8 self made vegetable, and
in this particular deserves, perhaps,
higber degree Of respect than can be aC-
corded to any plant. it came to this
country in the humbie5t circumstances
being brought here rs food for swine, but

between the professional mines during
tbe last five or six years have been as Un-
reliable as d" skin " trOtting. Let US hope
that we have heard the last of proies-
e siOuaI baseball Il has ruined nearly
every Young man who has undertaken To
make living by it. As a healthy out
door exercise for boys, baseball cannot
! be too highly commended; as an en-
rIovment for grownup men, 1T sinks
! below contempt, and, ss we see, leads
