Botanists warned the agriculturists
that the calamity was coming. as they
were making a mistake in not starting
a new life from the seed on the top
OF the vine, telling them they were

must soon die Of old age by planting
the tuber year after year. Nature also

crop Of potato balls. / can well re-
member seeing the ground covered
with them. The warning was unheed-
ed, and the calamity came as some
now living remember"
Now the above theories are founded
on the idea that the seed has a certain
amount OF life to give its plant, and
that when that is exhausted the plant
must per force die. It is a theory that
seems quite popular, but one that has
never been proven Nor do we believe
it can be proven. II is altogether like
ly that the amount Of life force In
any plant, even budded OF grated
plant, is controlled and produced by
the elements and principles that are
found in that plant; hence, it follows
that future gratis may have more en-
ergy than the original parent which
is frequently the case. Varieties DO
not OF necessity run out Change IS
constant in any and all varieties That
change must be sometimes toward the
better. sometimes toward the worse.
1t progresses not in a straight line, but
in parabola. Some CT its curves are
up and some down. Varieties are gem

eclipsed. for a time at least. 5y some
other variety.
Doubtless some OF the so-called run

but most of them would be useless In

In an agricultural paper that is pub
lished In Michigan we notice a com
munication by G. R. Crosby relative to
peach yeliows. He advances the theory
that peach yellows exist on trees that
are budded or grated and that Il
comes as a result OF the weakness en-
gendered by that process. In part be
says.
The first noticeable fact Is that it
Is a disease that is Of comparatively
recent date. at least forty years ago
I had never heard Of the thing Al
that time grating and budding was
Just beginning to be practiced. and
was. SO % speak, IN its experimental
stage Now no fruit tree Of any sort
Is offered that Is not either grated
or budded. or is supposed to be. Now
it must be conceded that in budding no
new life Is produced. but the old life
Is simply extended. hence the age Of
a growth from a bud must be reckoned.
not from the age Of the stock into
which the bud is SET but from the pit
which produced the tree from which
the first bud was taken. II IL the
process Of budding. buds have been cut
from trees previously budded, there Is
10 Be added the weakening process
which always accompanies budding
we have then IN the yeilows a disease
OF old age. Il this Is true the remedy
IS in starting a new life from the pit
A further advantage might be gained
to the grower Of fruit by raising
trees direct from pits planted where
the tree IS to remain. and thus save
the shock Of transplantlng.

1T was many years ago, on my first
trip to Italy. and had. with some
difficulty, obtained permission to look
at the inside Of one Of the old Genoese
palaces, seldom visited and to take
a photograph OF the stairway. which
you see Is an exceedingly beautiful
one. had special fancy for archi-
tectural bits then.
"On my way to the palace, passing
through the tortuous thoroughfares

stopped here and there. as all new

the varied show
1T chanced that the street was that
called the Goldsmiths. and each
tradesman Wed with the other in his
display Of trinkets in gold and silver

in the corner OF one lay an object
which caught my eye. It was a stilet-

Of the finest workmanship. With no
very definite intention Of buying. I en-

en- vocabulary. demanded the price
The figures were so enormous that
shook my head and turned to leave.
The Italian. seeing that I was in earn

and. finally selling me by the coat
persuaded me into making the pur-
chase. which I thrust into my pocket
and hurried on to my destination.
THE quick walk seemed 10 heat my
blood to the boiling point. and after I
had showed my permit to the custod-
ian and selected the point from which
I could get the best view. I threw my
light outer coat on an old carved seat
and FASTENED out again. Get some
thing I must to assuage the torment

I had an eerie. creepy feeling as ]
stood at my work as II ghosts were

haunted me.
