sarsaparilla that cures. One bottle

have tried ell kinds, to do the work
of from three to six bottles of any
other kind. 1t is the most eco
nomical sarsaparilla therefore, on
the market because it cures quicker
and at less expense. The ordinary
sarsaparilla is like the old lady's

have to drink half dozen cups to

GARDEN SEEDS.

| Bulletin number 43, bearing date OF
January of this year, Of the Agricultural
Experiment Station of the Rhode Island
College Of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts
gives valuable and interesting informa-
tion as 10 tests Of l5i garden seeds bought
from different dealers i'm open market.
The investigation, of which this il the
report, furnishes additional facts to those
set forth i'm Bulletin number 80 which
showed that of 233 samples of seeds so
| purchased in 1896, 20 were found where
there were three or more poor seeds for
every good one, and there were % other
samples that were composed of one-half
or moro poor seeds.
OF this last batch of seed it appears
that the vitality of "a of the samples fell
below 80 per cent as shown by the ger
mination tests. That is, of course,
purchaser Of seeds like these "a samples
would receive less than one-half of his
moneys worth of growable seeds. The
tests appear to have been fairly made and
with precautions generally somewhat
more thorough than the average gardener
would be able To devote to his purchases.
The experiments in some cases justify
the suspicion that the seeds were old, in
other words, that the dealers, or at any
rate, the seedmen, do. not hesitate To
furnish customers with packets left on
hand from year 10 year or mix them
with the fresh seed so that the quality,
il not altogether low, is variable
and not to be depended upon. In
the interesting suggestion that
IL very poor seed is obtained from n dealer
one year 1t Is reasonably safe to place an
order for the same kind of seed with that
dealer the following year, on the suppo-
sition that his stock will be sold out and
he will have new lot, and il is not
sure that such reasoning is entirely with
out foundation.
We have laws regulating the quality of
food stuffs of one kind and another to pro-
tect the consumer from adulteratcd arti-
cles and stuff too aged to be eaten with
safety. There is a government system of
fertilizer inspection that protects the
farmer in his purchases of this nature.
But there seems to be no authorized way
to guarantee the vitality of seed upon
which so greatly depends the value of
crop and the profit or loss of agricultural
pursuits. In the absence of restrictions
better designed, the Bulletin which we
quote suggests that dealers and gardeners
get together for common protection and
arrange to have seeds put upon the market
fully and fairly tested, and there seems
to he no good reason why such plan
would not be a mutually good thing.
