ers, closer planting, and consequently
Z more profitable crop. My investi-
cations into the structure Of the 80.
called "eye" Of the potato convince me
that single eye planting is in most
plants in accordance with natural laws
OF growth. We all have seen how a
vigorous shoot on some tree or shrub
has absorbed the sap so that smaller
shoots below very slowly developed or
eventually died of. The so.called
law of Survival Of the fittest" would
seem to be well illustrated in the
growth of OUR high forest trees by the
Vigorous growth Of the topmost
branches and death Of tie lower ones.
Since the potato tuber Ii nothing
elsa than an underground branch;
what We call ati eye Is analogous to q
Leaf OF. .tldwer-bud on branches above
grouhd, many Of these buds produc-
Ing number of leaflets or flowers; as
in case Of the cherry or apple. The
same number Of shoots are produced
BY the eye Of the potato; thus. in ex-
amining them under a microscopes,
we find from one to six germs in an
eye. In the early rose seldom met
with more than three, while burbank,
beauty OF Hebron, and snowflake have
as high as six germs or buds. Now, in
all 1 have examined, l invariably
found the central germ to be from two
to four times the size of any of the
other; some which had sprouted to
the length OF nearly an inch were ex-
amined, and, In few instances only,
showed any OF the minor germs which
mad doubtless been absorbed by tho
central one. Again the few that werN
left did not increase in size, showing
that the more vigorous growth of the
central germ prevents the develop
ment OF the minor ones:
The presence Of tho minor gGfms
(or buds) Is a wise provision Of na.
ture. In case of an accident to the

serve the species. Letting potatoes

will be weaker. unless an abundant
supply OF plant food is at hand and
the weather is favorable at tho time of

to be a valuable feed for horses, cattle,

keep in better condition while working
hard, and gain in flesh readily, as do
oxen, while hogs fatteh very rapidly,

mills to grind them, they are soaked
in water twelve hours for horses and
