POTATOE SEED.

Early last spring in one of our agricultural
articles, we made a few observations on the
best mode of cutting and managing potatoes
meant for seed We stated. that the very best
practical agricuturisis differed widely a. 10 the
length of ime the seed should be cut PRIOR 10
planting While some farmers think il benefit
ted by laying cut six or eight days, others wish
to have the cutting aud planting gong on at
the same time but a decided advantage results
from taking the seed. from the top end of the
POTATOES On this subject correspondent IN
the Dumiries Courier says -" We had an OPP
porluni,y of making several interesting expert
menls in garden of limited extent situated on
the fertile banks of the Amman and We uniform.
~ ascertained that plants cul from the top md
of the parent potato, we're fit for the of the
table about a fortnight earlier than those cut
from near the root, though both were planted
on the same dav, and had the same manage
ment. The stems were much more healthy aud
vigorous and tue crop always more luxhriant.
Another circumstance deserving OF notice, /,
that when the root end Of the potatoe is planted
with the others, in the course of few years
very percpptlble degencracy ensueS; and hence
arise. what ia common phraseology, ARE called
bastards TO this we have paid particular II.
tention, chiefly on our fathers farm. When
the first traces of degeneracy appeared we
were led to examine the sets, and were always
satisfied that it originated in the root. The
first Of this'degeneracy is easily detected by a
careful observer, from the polatoe being ot a
smaller growth, and ola variegated color, com
mencing at the eyes, whence the stems GERM
nate. and differing for the first year very little
from genuine seed bit in few years, when
these are again planted, the degeneracy rapid
" increases. Too much care cannot be taken
by the farmer to preserve the original plant free
from mixture. Edintug Scotsman.
