Jacks vary IN size and weight con-
siderably. 4 medium size is IA hands,
AMI 500 pounds; the largest are 16 hands

A jack recently sold in Kentucky for

knee to ankle II, around arm 26t, aud
around stife SO inches. This is . so
large as one sold previously for $3.50.
The American jacks surpass those of any
other country in all respects, but the
French and Spanish blood has been used
literally in their improvement. TIE

ROTATION IN TIE GARDEN.

1t is a good thing in the cultivation OF
garden not to grow the same vegetables
or plants year after year on the same spot,
nor even two years in succession on the
same. 1t is liable to generate disease
and to exhaust that portion of the soil in
which the plant feeds or to remove the
peculiar elements which it needs. Roots,
deep-feeding and shallo W. feeding plants
should succeed each other. A strict
system of rotation is always safest.
Where a mixed lot of vegetables is
grown, the same ground may be worked
for an almost indefinite length of time
