I have for these ten years past; °harmd a. pu'rrp.
'pendent in the Glasgow Co!trier, planted about 20
falls of potatoes ; the first four years I cut try pots,.
toes in the ordinary way, taking as many tuts from
the potatoe as could he got ; of. Course. :I had only
ordinary crop like my neighbours.. list ltese hist
six years l have had douhle the quantity of potato,.
any person in the neighbourhood lied, on the taw*
portion of land. Farmers, in vowel. take as many
cuts from a potatoe as pinsiible, 'binkilg, probably,
that the more cuts they .have front a potato., the
more ground they plant, and of course they will
rear their yutstoes the cheaper. In this, however,
the farmer s greatly mistaken ; for ordinary potato.
thaws seldom, at an average, yield more than seven
or eight potames: this is owing principally to the
number of cuts.takgn from the seed potatoe; for it
cannot be expected that one single potato* can have
juice and substance sufficient to swinish five or sit •
shows, or that they can be as fruitful es if.there had -
been only one or two of them. Let the platter take .
only one top cut, or "two, at most, audit he does
not find his account in it, I am greatly mistaken ; for,
upon one sere of ground planted in this manner, I
am morally conscious, that he will raise more tall
tatnes than upon three acres plinted from top and
roots cut promiscuously. If any one chooses to
analyse a potatoe about the season when they aid
planted, he will find the roots cut dry and perched
whilst the top cuts are moist and juicy; this dims.-
stance will show so far, that. I am 'right. Another
thing to be observed, is this, that no person ought
to plant a cut from a plain eyed potatoe, for the
hollow eyed ones will yield ten for one. Another
circuit-Stance still; which may exemplify my assertions,
is this—in two or three pretty long rows of potatoes,
the °Mirk% of top cuts alone, scarcely • shaw was
to be found, that had not yielded forty or fifty pa.
talon; and a single shaw in the middle of one or
the Vows, 'yielded no fewer than 133 yotstoes,
which were dug and counted before witnesses. Some
'may say,. that, by my plan, the greatest part of
every potatov.is lost ; but let them consider, thetas
there are few farmers but have cows tad pigs, as few
cows or pigs are so nice aloe refuse potatoes, and as •
potatoes are as cheap food as can be given to cattle,
they will, instead of losers, be very great gainers;
