received some tubers of wild potato from
the botanic garden at Cambridge, Mass. The
garden received it from Mexico not long he

aeep eyes, most of them nearly globular, and
the N, largest perhaps was an inch in diameter.
The tops were rather long and spreading. and
closely resembled those of a cultivated potato.
they have blossomed regularly, and have pro
duced an abundance of berries with seeds.
For the last three years they have changed

inc tubers have gradually enlarged till this

slightly compressed. Only a few have been
raised, and no test has been made of their
quality, nor have any seedlings been raised.

To Eradicate So,.rey.

Many farmers are troubled by the growth of
sorrel in their fields, which, when allowed to
spread without check, becomes very difficult.
# not impossible, to eradicate. The growth Of
tnis weed ls sure sign of poor or worn out
SOIL IL ls common error that the presence
OF oXallc acid in sorrel is due to the ssourness"
OF the soil. A little thought will show that
this idea is fallacious. The same soil that
grows Strawberries will produce rhubarb. an
own cousin to sorrel, in profusion; the same
Tree Will bear q sweet apple and sour one.
ana so on with all farm products. The chem
!cal constituents of the acid of the sorrel are
III The SOIL, but are not combined in the acid
shape. The same elements which make one
plant or fruit sweet will make the sorrel sour.
One of the common remedies recommended
Tor use in Graduating sorrel is limo, the idea
Demg to neutralize the acid supposed to exist
IN the soil by the application Of alkali To be
sure the lime may be of use in decomposing
the vegetable matter in the soil, and 80 en-
courage the growth Of other plants which will
tend to choke out the undesirable weed, but
some other plants, chiefly by underground
stems with joints, each one OF which will form
a plant. The only practical way to rid a field
OF this plant is by thorough cultivation and
frequent blowing, together with the growth of
hoed crops for season or two Heavy appli-
cations OF barnyard manure should be made
ana it should be well worked in. An abund-
ance of food for the support of other plants is
thus furnished, and when they are grown, in
conjunction with careful cultivation. the sor
rel Will soon disappear,
