W. Schleyer, of Fredericton. The commission took this means of showing their appreciation of De.

Wirn reference to the prize ‘‘Barrister” colt, sold by the Hon. Lauchlin McMillan, of Covehead, to Mr. David J. Murray, of Truro, N, S., the Halifax Herald says:—*‘Mr. David J, Murray, owner of the ‘Frank Allison’ stal- lion ‘Messenger Clay,’ has recently purchased and brought to Truro a very fine Clydesdale entire colt, one year old, which he intends using for stock purposes in the Provinces, The colt is a beautiful bay, with black points. His weight is 1000 pounds. He is named ‘Young Barrister. His sire ‘Barrister’ (impoated) by ‘Emperor’ is a splendid animal, who was brought gome years ago to P.E. Island, His dam, ‘ Kate,’ by imported ‘Stockman,’ was until recently also owned in P. E. Island, and is considered one of the best brood mares in the country. ‘Young Barrister’ was pur- chased by Mr. Marray from the Hon. Lauchlin McMillan. of Woburn Cottage Farm, Cove- head, P. EB. Island. The dam and a sucking colt were recently sold by Mr. McMillan, for a large amount in New Brunswick. Experi- enced horsemen are usanimous in their admir- ation of ‘Young Barrister,’ and his introduc- tion will, no doubt. be a great benefit to the future breeding of horses for draft and agri-

cultural purposes.”

—_——— : Tux North Sydney Herald says:—Michael McDonald, of Cherry Valley, a small produce shipping place about ten miles from Char- lottetown, P. E. Island, has grown on his farm this summer grafted potatoes. Mr. Mc- Donald, who has just arrived at that port from Newfoundland, where he has disposed of a cargo of potatoes, informs us that he had about three handred bushels of the grafted potatoes mixed through the cargo. and had he kept the grafted separate, he could have named his own figure for them. One old man came in from ten milea outside of St. John's to learn the art of grafting. He said he “wondered how they could graft on the tato stock.” The grafting is done in the Plowing manner; for instance, we will take a “blue” and an “early rose.” Supposing we want a potato from the two, we cut all eyes out of the “blue,” then we cut an eye out of the “early rose” and insert it im one of the eye hoies of the “blue.” Whe then go over it with the grafting wax, (same as in tree graft- ing) when the “blue” is planted whole, and as above described, the potatoes produced from it will be half ‘‘blue” and half ‘‘early rose.
