sPRoUTING SEED POTATOES.

The chief advantage Of sprouting is
that q few weeks growth is secured
in the boxes before the seed is planted.
Consequently, If the two kinds of seed
are planted about the same time, the
crop from the sprouted seed is ready
for digging several weeks before that
from the unsprouted seed. Again. "
a farmer has seed sprouted and the
soil is wet and cold, or the conditions
unfavorable. he may delay planting
for q time Further, on fresh land the
sprouted potatoes make an extremely
rapid growth that Smothers 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.

little growth, ard was thin and poor.
When two months old, somewhere
about the commencement Of autumn il
was taken from the mother and put in
the barn, where i was :ed with fresh
green grass. Having n dairy and n
separator, the cot was taught to drink
the skinned milk while sweet and
warm. II soop became fond Of the
milk and commenced to grow and fill
out. II was kept in a roomy pen all
through the winter and given the
skinned milk along with its other
feed. As result. il grew finely, be-

tage along with the other feed.-E. Il.
