it is great benefit to change seed OCCASION
ally; yet it is by no means an undisputed
fact, and we know of some intelligent men
indeed some who stand among the most
thoroughly educated and experienced in the

supposed necessity for a change Of seed is
entirely imaginary.
We confess to a sympathy with those who
think an occasional change necessary and

opinion, no matter how strongly held The
change is thought to be particularly useful
in potatoes. and a change of seed in this arti-
Gle is generally made as regularly as crops
are rotated from year TO year. But one of
our fr'ends is very emphatic in regard to the
potato, that no change Of seed Is required.
He has had one potato-thai is one yariet,

they are as good As ever. In his opinion it
is not tina, variety is sick of the ground
that it sometimes gives out but that it is
diseased from ordinary unhealthy causes. Ii
is simply change of an unhealthy stock
for a healthy one, and wearing out Of va
riety.
The matter has a practical importance as
people often pu, themselves to a great deal
of trouble and expense in order to make
change in the seed. IL the suggestion made
