DeyeIoping a New Potato.

During the past season remarkable
progress has been made in the cult
walton of a new species Of potato in
the department of Yienne, in France.
1t originated in Uruguay, and is called
the Solanum COmmersoni. Amid its
new environment in France, and by
dint of careful cultivation and selec-
ton. it has developed several forms
which promise to become fixed, and to
possess much value as additions to the
food resources of Europe Among these
forms, all springiDg from one parent
species. there are Il yellow variety,
white variety, a red variety and a va
riety not specially characterized by
color, all of which possess distinctive
shapes and qualities. A fact that par
ticuIarIy interests botanists and cult
vators is that these varieties have ev
identity not vet reached their final set
tied forms, and the experiments of
NJ. Labergerie in Vienne are closely
watched because it is thought that they
will throw light upon the unsettled
question of the general origin of the

How often doyou hear these signi-

Watching the MarIxat

The farmer who does not watch the
market reports and prices will be at
a disadvantage. If an article was
high last year it may induce many to
grow large crops of it this year. If an
article is low 1t is possible that MANY
will not make any attempt to grow
anything with profit on that line. An
experienced farmer states that he al
ways plants the crops that others will
not grow, for then it is sure to be be-
low the demand and bring good
price. His method is worthy of consid-
Grafton by others.

The Farm Garden

For a farmer to begin gardening
with several kinds of each vegetable is
to fail with some, as farmers do not,
as a rule, give attention to gardening.
About one-half of the varieties in many
of the seed catalogues could be elimi-
mated with advantage. If the garden
is to be a speciality next year, NOW off
the grass and weeds, burn the ground
over to destroy the weed seeds and
plow the land whenever favorable for
so doing, applying manure literally
and then narrowing it in. Next spring
plow the garden again and use only d
few varieties of each vegetable select
ing such as may be supposed to be the

Feeding Stock.

Giving the COWS coarse food, in order
to dispose of such foods, will not add
to the quality of the milk, nor the
quantity, but it puts the COWS to service
in converting such materials into ma
nure \ good farmer, however, can
not afford to keep COW simply to
make manure. The manure should be
considered only as a by-product. To
make an animal profitable, not only
should the coarse and bulky materials
be used, but they should be REINFORCED
by the best feeding stuffs that can be
produced, 50 as not only to increase
the yield, but also render the manure
more valuable.

Farm Work in Winter,

There are many duties on the farm
that are performed only during certain
seasons, but an amount of preliminary
work can be done in winter which will
save time in the spring. Not a seed
should be planted that has not been ex-
amined. and an overhauling of the
tools should not be overlooked. Get
ready for spring in advance. 50 as to
prepare for hurry during the planting
season. The manure heap should also
receive attention, as the condition Of
the manure will largely influence the
start of the plants in tie spring.

Burning Off the Strawberry Bed.

If the ground is cold the strawberry
bed may be burned over, which will
clean the surface. This need not be
done until later, if preferred, or just
before the winter mulch IS removed
After the plants have made their
growth a mulch of clean straw or salt
hay will not only assist to promote
their growth, but will protect against
drought and also aid in keeping the
fruit clean. 1t is not necessary to cul-
tfvate strawberries in early spring. as
cultivation disturbs the surface roots,
but the bed should be cleaned, how
ever. by fire or raking.
