after the Civil War. For while the

street railways, the report brings out
the fact that the first passenger car

to any great extent prior to 1880, has
practically superseded all other sys-

sPRoUTING SEED POTATOES

The chief advantage Of SproutinG Is
that few weeks growth is secured
in the boxes before the seed is planted.
Consequently, IL the two kinds Of seed
are planted about the same time. the
crop from the sprouied seed is ready
for digging several weeks before that
from the unsprOuted seed. Again. il
a farmer has seed sprouted and the
soil is wet and cold, or tho conditions
mfavorable, he may delay planting
for n time Further, on fresh land the
Sproutcd potatoes make an extremely
rapid growth that smothCrs the weeds
for the whole season.
Another advantage gained by Sprout-
ing seed is that the first bud is pre-
served, and the plant is therefore
more vigorous throughout the season;
whereas, with unlocked seed the first
bud when it exists is tender, and
usually gets broker of.
