Prof Taft OF the Michigan experiment
station has made some very thorough seed
tests of potatoes. His conclusions are as
follows:
1. The seed end is as good, if not bet
ter, than any other part OF the potato for
planting. and as a rule produces fewer
small tubers.
2. As a rule, medium-sized potatoes
cut into halves lengthwise, using at the
rate OF thirteen to fifteen Dushels of seed
70 the acre, will produce best net results,
planted one and half or two feet apart.
3. II smaller seed is used the ewes
should be fifteen inches apart, and pieces
containing two or three eyes, about eigh-
teen inches. At distance of over two
and half feet the number of hills is so
much decreased that the Weld is lesseDed
4. When potatoes are cheap il does not
pay to use small potatoes as seed, but
when seed potatoes are high, tubers the
size OF hens eggs may be used one year
without greatly decreasing the yield.
D. Even on fairly rich soil manure and
fertilizer can be used with much profit.
When manures cannot be obtained with
out hauling two or three miles, 500 pounds
OF mixed chemicals or of some good brand
of commercial fertilizer will be cheaper to

The Use of Poisons By Fruit Grower
The spraying of fruits and vegetables

few nervous consumers have been alarmed
by sensational reports of danger from eat
ing sprayed fruits. but there is no anthem
ticated case OF any poisoning from such a
source. Our best chemists have anaIyzed
sprayed fruits and failed TO find even q
trace of poison when it was used with
judgment.
In The case of fruit the amount that
lodges on an apple or plum, or bunch of
grapes, is so Enthusiastically small that
one would be compelled to eat hundreds
at one time to &c; enough poison to be in

Event of Two Candidates for the
Mayoralty, 20 Be Separate-The
Harmon Club Getting It's Council
Timber in Shape.
Alderman Harmon's friends are prosecut-
Ing his campaign for the mayoralty vigor-
ously. They believe in the old saying about
the early bird catching the worm, and
they are working on that line with the idea
that Alderman Harmon will have such an
organized support before any other caudi-
dates get into the field that he will be a sure
winner. Ii.
The Harmon Club is holding weekly meet
ings arranging plans OF campaign and get
ting the candidates. friends solidiied. The
members are also looking after the county
registration to see that voters qualify for
the city registration.
Alderman Harmon is confident of success.
The assurances of support he has received
from his friends make him feel good, and
he thinks from present indications that he
will be the next mayor Of Savannah.
MAYOR soHwARz SAYING NOTHING.
In the meantime Maj. SchwarE is saying
nothing. Ths HsrmoniEing influences
haven't yet induced him to declare himself
out of the race. The exNmayor is silent on
the question and will say neither
yes nor no Some of bis friends
declare Their belief that he will
eventually announce himself not a candi-
date and throw bis influence to Alderman
Harmon, while others claim that he has
sufficient following to be elected, and at the
proper time viii be In the race
There is no certainty that Mayor McDon-
ough will not be a candidate to succeed
himself When approached upon the SUBJ
| iect his ans wer was: sit is better for q
man to wait awhile and find out whether
the people want him." He said it is yet too
early to talk about the mayoraltY.
MAY BIT M'DoNoUGH AGAIN.
One of Mayor McDonough's friends who
heard Of his remark, said: THAT means he
will run" The same party said further,
that II the mayor is a candidate none of the
other aspirants will stand any chance of
being elected. 1.-THE lines" said he, will
be clearly defined and sharply drawn, and
the voters Of The city will know exactly the
platform Of the candidates. With matters
In this shape have no fear OF the result.
Mayor MoDonough has given the city an
able, clean and improved administration,
and the peoph, knowing a good man when
they see him will re-elect HIM"
| A member of the present board Of alder
men said thai there will be two separate
and distinct municipal tickets in the field.
No candidate for alderman, he said, will be
on both tickets, and there will be no pulling
through by that means as has been the case
In past years. All candidates will be ruu
on their merits strictly.
The Harmon Club, il Is understood, ID
arranging for its aldermanio timber, but
no names will be given out for some time &c
come. The most of the ticket will be made

OfThe m All.
THE City Directory" was seen for the
first time In Savannah last night and il
went with rush. The audience was one
of the largest ever seen In the theater at
this part Of the season. The play itself is
properly christeued an absurdity, but
a very amusing diversity it is. From the
rise of the curtain until it falls on the last
act there are amusing situations which
tickle the disabilities of the audience to
such an extent that It causes a roar of
laughter to continually fill the auditorium
from pit to DOME" There are no particu-
lar features that stand out promptly. ALI
Of the characters are well up In their pa rts
aud contribute TO the fun with creditable
work. The music was bright and spark
ling, and the songs were well rendered.
For an evenings amusement and an en-
joyable entertainment THE City Direo-
tory" is recommended. The company ap-
pears at matinee this afternoon and will
give its last performance tonight.

TO arumor that the government would fit ur

now stationed at Atlanta would be quar-

visit of the officers was as much one OF
pleasure as anything else.
