Curious Facts in Regard to the Nature and Culture
of the Irish Potato.
Mr. SKINNER :

NIT GklNNER.
Somerset County, Nd. Nop. 10, 1928.
Sir,-I took single Irish potato, (Which when ia
ken out of the ground last fall weighed one pound.)
The eyes of the potato first out, and the bal
ance of the potato, that had eyes, was then cut in
small pieces, and planted in the row with those
pieces that had eyes. They all came up alike, grew
alike, and produced alike. The tops of the Potatoes
while growing were equally ururiant and the produce
of Equality. The product counedby Major e..
X Wilson, and Mr. Thomas X. Carol. There were
nnety-two potatoes increase. 1t generally known
that tine part of the potato which has not eyes, will
produce equally with the part that has eyes. But it is
so. have planted in this way for two years past,
and found the fact to be so. 1t frequently happens
that persons who are of seed potatoes in the
spring, throw away the parts which have no eyes,
Whereas if they knew that the parts without eyes
would vegetate and produce, they would be able to
plant their crops
Many persons that the of the Potatoes
whilst growing, thought that it would produce from
tro to three pecks. But owing to an uncommon long
drought, and the potato being planted in ground very
highly lined, the increase not than half the
size they would have been, had the been favor
able and the ground not lined. The product was on
ly between one and two pecks
JOHN C. WILSON, Sen.
WeStOrCr.
N. B.-I planted the potato the last week in June.
An Irish potato is impregnated throughout with the
negotiating quality.

From the National journal.

Ecolosng-Some Of the combination prints
in the west and in New York, seem shocked
at the large quantity Of provisions furnished
for the public entertainments lately gwen IN
honor Of Mr. Clay in Kentucky. We are
not prepared to say how far the bills Of fare
reported by these veritable kitchen Chronl-
ciers are correct, nor to contest their crit-
cisms on the bountifa hospitality with which
''tbe Pride Of the West" has been greeted on
his return 10 his old friends an neighbors -
The provisions are understood to have been
the property of the entertainers, and they
probably md not deem it necessary 10 consult
''the president and ourselves" as to the mode
Of using them. But in dis age q purity and
reform Il seems that in the eyes of some cen
sors, il is a henious sin for the people to
spend their own money. WIN these hyper
critical gentlemen favor US with their opinion
on the following case, in which it appears
that sn individual has spent, with very little
regard 10 econotny, not his own money, but
the money Of the people?

We have been favored with the following
extract of letter from Martha Cheesman,
one of the cmigrants who went out in the ship
Norfolk, to her father in this place, Philip
Ruiiin, dated
MoNRovA, (AFRIcD SEPT. a., 1929.
Dear Father:--I take this opportunity
writing these few lines, hoping that they will
find you and all friends, as we and all our
friends are atprcsent, In the full enjoyment OF
health. All the family, except Joseph, have
been little Sick but he has always been
well, and all the rest of our Norfolk friends,
who came out with us, are well and hearty;
well pleased with the country, and have not
the least desire TO return We feel great
deal of anxiety about you all that we left be-
hind, and hope that you will let us hear from
you as often as you can. We feel anxious to
know about your situation, as you are growing
old and iniirm, and we have much anxiety a.
bout YOU and our dear relations, and would
be perfectly satisfied If we could enjoy your
company. But when we reflect on the good
ness of God, and that he takes care OF his
people, it gives 9s consolation. / am unable
TO give You full description of the country,
as have been only five miles from home, and
that was when | went TO Stockton. | am
pleasef with all | have seen. We are now in
the full enjoyment Of freedom. have been
to two weddings, and had the pleasure DINA
king the cakes for both. The last one was
DIR, Cary's daughter, which was very extcn-
slve one: there were three tables, and from
thirty to forty sat down to each, which brot'
20 my mind the enjoyment we often had to-
gcther in Norfolk cannot express my fsel- |
ings towards you all; but hope, if it does not |
please God that we shall meet in this world,
we shall in better. With my love to all our
friends, remain your aiiectionate daughter,

Besides the foregoing small itenas, is an ac-
count, without specification, also covering the
month of May, 1921, of $50 IS, styled in
the general account, "mcidental expenses"
The prodigal expenditure of the peoples

hibted in the foregoing accounts is at least
as criminal, 1--WE say with due delerence) as
the expenditure By themselves of their own

terror of the Union can probably boast of such
rapid raise and progress in the same space of
time as Pottsville, Pa. Ii is but few years
since twas the safe retreat of the fleet stag
and the tcrocious bear-the sporting field Of
the interchangeable huntsman, and his yelling
hounds. Instead of the rebounding echo of
the huntsman's horn. and the wells of his
anxious pack in pursuit Of the flying game,
you now encounter the noise and hustle of a
busy and pspulous Borough. Property which,.
six years ago, could have been purchased ut
ten dollars per acre, now sells readily for so
maEy thousands The improvements which
have taken place within few years at this
place, seem almost incredible. Pottsville, e.
ven at this time, presents probably wider
scope for spectators than any other place of
its size 10 the country.

Dangerous Btlsiraess.--A young man was
committed to the Sussex cosnty jail on Fri
day last, for having in his posse ssion horse,
ofwhch he could give no good account He
was on the horse when found, and bow he
got there wa. a mystery. He said he had
been tipsy, and must have stolen the horse
while in that state. Getting drunk and
stealing horses is bad business TO get living
by.
