GROWlNG LARGE POTATOES.

= ianC1nS single Eyes In DrillS-Hilling and
Deep Cultivation Produce Small Tubers.
Many beginners in potato growing
lind that their crop, even if large in
bulk, is mainly composed of small, un
salable potatoes of generally inferior
quality. There may be several causes
Tor this, the most common being the
planting of too much seed. American
Cultivator in this connection says:
One good, strong eye, with enough OF
the potato attached to give the shoot
vigorous start from the first, will make
two, three or four stalks That is
senough in any hill to secure the best
tubers. Some potato planters cut the
Jingle eyes SO small that the young
hoot does not start out vigorously, and
4 crop, though composed of large po-
les, will be a small one. The secret
Shaving crop of all large potatoes is
lot to crowd the vines too much in the
nil. The potato bears crowding about
as poorly as any crop we know. Yet
there are objections to cutting potatoes
to single eye unless the seed has been
carefully chosen from the strongest
plants and those which retained their
foliage longest. Then not more than two
or three pieces should be made from the
potatoes thus saved, and the strongest
eyes should be reserved for each piece.
In beginning the planting of single
eyes it is always best to plant in drills
rather than in hills. More and larger
potatoes can be grown this way, and if
the ground is reasonably free from
4 weeds the planting in hills should be
made the regular practice. At Is inches
apart in the rows and the rows three
feet apart crop of potatoes cut to sin
gle eyes ought to completely cover the
ground when the stems and leaves are
largest. AS the tops die down weeds
will start up, and the cultivator, set so
as to cut the surface soil not more than
an inch deep, should be kept running
through between the rows. Deep Guilt
walton, except just after the potatoes
have come up, should never be attempt
ed, and no hill should be made around
the potatoes
Killing and too deep cultivation are
more often the causes of small potatoes
than anything else. When the potatoes
are set, the cultivator should never be
allowed to disturb their roots, as it will
surely stop the growth of the tubers al
ready formed and begin the formation
of new set, which will not have time
to ripen before the potato vines die
down. Such potatoes cannot make reli-
able seed. They are far inferior to pota-
toes taken unripe from hills where the
tops are still green. The dying down of
the tops before the potato natures is al
ways the sign that disease has affected
them, and this is sure to extend to the
tubers. Spraying potato tops with Dor
<deaux mixture, SO as to keep the foliage
healthy, is therefore necessity for po-
tatoes that are intended to be used for
seed.

SEALING FLEETS VALUE
Is One Thing. and the Right to Use liz
Is Quite Another.


washington, d. c. Nov. 29.-The Anglo
American commission had expected 10 re-
sumo the consideration Of the reciprocity
discussion today. but as the Boring sea
question had not been disposed Of. the con-
sideration of this branch of the work was
continued. While considerable progress has
been made. final agreement on the seal
ing question is not yet assured. Besides
the present valuation of the Canadian
sealing oeet, it is said that the relinquish-
ment of the right of sealing is another
factor. which the Canadians consider quite
as important as the value of the present
fleet.
Questions relating TO the great lakes

WANTED SOME GOULD MONEY
Mrs. Margaret Cody on Trial in Al
bany for BiackmaiI

Albany, y. Y, Nov 29.-Mrs. Margaret
Cody's trial on indictments for blackman
was begun in the Albany county court,
before Judge Clifford D. Gregory, today
Mrs. Cody has been in the county jail
since May, having been indicted on the
charge of blackmaii 1t is alleged in the
Indictment that she wrote letters to Miss
Helen and George J. Gould on February
1 and March 9. 1885, respectively, asking
them to cal on her, and promising them
that she would give them what was alleg-
ed to be valuable information she had, to
enable them to effect a compromise or dis
continuance OF the action then pending
against the heirs of the late Jay Gould 20
establish the dover rights of Mrs. Angel,
on the ground that she was the first wife
of Jay Gould.
Miss Helen Gould and her aunt, Mrs
Elizabeth Palm, were present at the trial
today.
After jury had been empaneled, George
Gould was paced upon the stand as The
first witness. He identified two letters
from Mrs Cody which were received by
him in February, 1885, and September,
1885. These letters suggested thata Mrs.
Cody had means of disseminating the case
of Mrs. Angel against the Gould heirs.
He never had a personal interview with
Mrs. Cody.
Mrs. Angel who alleged that she was
married to Jay Gould when he was a
young surveyor, and who afterward co.,
fessed that she had no basis for ner
statement, has been summoned as wit
ness on behalf Of Mrs. Cody
Mrs. Cody has been confined in thu
bany Jail since her arrest in New iork
City last May just she was about to
sail for Europe. where she was going to
represent American claimants in the Shep-
ard estate in England.
The afternoon session was devoted to
the Identification by witnesses, of papers
and letters which were used in Mrs. An
gels case. none of which were read, but
which will be used later in the trial as
evidence

they will present new musical and far
cial composition entitled by the Sad Sea
Waves" a rag time opera The better
part of the summer recess has been busily
employed in fitting this effort for the
road and with the firm belief that they
have the best play they have ever ap-
peared in. The piece has had but few
presentations. but it is claimed it jumped
into popular favor with the first produc-
ton and it is now assured of being one
of the seasons most popular successes.
As mirth-provoking performance by
the Sad Sea Waves is said to be one
of the most pretentious performances of
musical farce, calling for the services Of
thirty odd people. a car load Of scenery.
and adjuncts and a feminine chorus of
rare voices.

PECULIAR P0lS0NS
GENERATED IN THE HUMAN BODY.
The Result of Imperfect Digestion
of Food

Every living thing, plant or animal, con-
tains within itself the germs Of certain
decay and death.
In the human body these germs of dis
case and death called by scientists Pto-
ruainesp. are usually the result of imper-
feet digestion Of food-the result of indi-
gestion or dyspepsia.
The stomach. from abuse, weakness,
does not promptly and thoroughly digest
the food. The result is a heavy. sodden
mass which fermenJs che first process of
decay. poisoning the blood. making it
thin. weak and lacking in red corpuscles-
poisoning the brain. causing headaches
and pain in the eyes.
Bad digestion irritstes the heart. caus-
ing palnitation and finally bringing on
disease of this very important organ.
Poor digestion poisons the kidneys. caus-
ing Bright's disease and diabetes.
And this is 50 because every organ. every
nerve, depends upon the stomach alone for
nourishment and renewsland weak diCes-
ton shows itself not only in loss Of an
petite and flesh, but in weak nerves and
muddy complexion.
