Developing New Potato.
During the last season remarkable
progress has been made in the culti-

the department of Vienne in France.
It originated in Uruguay, and is call-
ed the Solanum Commersoni. Amid
its. new environment in France, and
by dint of careful cultivation and se-
lection, it has developed several
forms which promise to become fixed,
and to possess much value as addi-

to the food resources of Europe.
Among these forms, all springing
from one parent species, there are a
yellow variety, a white variety, a red
variety, and a variety not specially
characterized by color, all of which
possess distinctive shapes and quali-
ties. A fact that particularly inter-
ests botanists and cultivators 1s that
these varietfes have evidently not

Girl Had Running Sores From Eczee
ma—Doy Tortured by Poison Oak
—DBoth Cured by Cuticura.
“Last year, after having my little girl
treated by a very prominent physician for
an obstinate case of eczema, I resorted to
the Cuticura Remedies, and was so well
pleased with the almost instantaneous re-
lief afforded that we discarded the phy-
siclan’s prescription and relied entirely on
the Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Ointment and
Cuticura Pills. When we commenced with
the Cuticura Remedies her feet and limbs
were covered with .unning sores. In about
six weeks we had her completely well, and
there has been recurrence of the
trouble.
“In July of this year a little boy in our
family poisoned his hands and srms with
poison oak, and in twenty-four hours his
hands and arms were a mass of torturing
sores. We used only the Cuticura Rem-
edies, washing his hands and arms with
the Cuticura and anointing them
with the Cuticura Ointment, and then
gave him the Cuticura Resolvent. in
about three weeks his hands and arms
healed up. So we have lots of cause for
feeling grateful for the Cuticura Remedies.
We find that the Cuticura Remedies are
a valuable household standby, living as we
