The poTATo-AB to the manner ofeeedipf,
Il plant about l5 bushels to the acre, cutting
the large anes 10 save seed. After trying tic
planting Of large aud small, cut and not tout, /
never saw any difference in the results.
With regard tothe methods Of cultivation,
there exists much prejudice and misconcep-
ton. I viii give my own method, towards
which | have been long approaching, while
have, i'll agriculture, been oEdeavoring to d.
minish THE expense and increase the profit.
Let sward ground be generally used, after
becoming we'll rotted either by being plough
cd long enough beforehand, or BIZ growing
thereon previously a crop of oats. Spread on
somethirty loads IF manure to the acre; plough
deep and fine, just before planting fnrf0W 2
feet and tWo-thirds feet apart very lightly, 50
that Hhent the potatoes, planted about one foot
apart, arc properly covered with d hoe, the
ground shall be left level cover lightly, and
just as deep as in your Judgement will cause
Tic seed to cone up, and no more hoe once
at proper time, and once onlY, aasisted by ?
ti0lnharraw orenitigator; but leave the ground
a. R9et as possible. If weeds appear ofcot-
siderable size. NOW them with the potato tops
before hard frost, and hay the whole for cattle.
All This together makes excellent hay, If we'll
nala. The later Won dig your potatoes the
better, if kept out Of the way OF frost. Should
you desire The greatest present profit from
Woll.tnanaaed corn RfaHnd, plant about FIVE
bushels Of potatoes 10 the acre and afev pump
lins with your Indian corn. Peas and beans,
planted in the rows, sometimes do we'll, with
out injury to the potatoes.
But do not, | e%ntteat, furroW your ground
too deeply for any seed do not put manure in
the "htll,t or "h0le - do not press the ground
over The seed At planting; do not plough be-
tween the rows do not ''hiIl np;'' but leave
the ground rs level as c%oHyenientti i'll harvest f.;
for The old practices are parnieious errors,
causing much hard labor to be useless or
worse.
Ills a maxim with mr., founded, I think, on
the dictates of nature and reason, that where
there is the most manure, there is needed the
most water. How does it seem then to put
tIe manure in the hole, aud then bill np, 10

have obtained at the rate 6f sig hundred
andthifty-fou and o.6fth8 bushels OF early
Blue Pointers tie acre. But my average crop,
during fwenty.four years, has not varied far
from two hundred bushels to the acre.
During many years, have not boiled pota-
toes for any brute animals, believing it does

EyeLrsH MonE or KILLINa RATs,-ln your
valuable paper have read a plan for the
destruction of rats by poison, which is at all
times dangerous to have on your premises
Now beg TO submit a plan which, in my OPP
pinion, is much better, and will,ef properly
attended TO, catch them by wholesale, viz;
place an old corn bin in a quiet place, where
the rats are known to frequent, on some
bricks or wood about four inches off the
ground; make a hole in the bottom of it TO
admit them; fit a slate between too grooved
strips of wood to pull over the hole by q wire
passing out through a hole in the end Of the
bin, but the wire must not rest over
the hole then with a string about 40 OF
so wards long fastened to the wire, the
trap will be complete. Place in the bin a
loose tied faggot or two, 10 seperate them
from fighting, and put in three or four red
behring's, barley meal, or new malt, and LEI
them have free ingress and egress for a week
or 81, feeding them every night and when
you are satisfied they have found out the
entertainment, go quietly in the dark and pull
the slate over the hole, andyou will have q
good sample of them; they should be destroy,
ed at once, or the bin should be lined with tin
