the only cause they could discover was thai
the potato was run out. Mr. w. said he had
sent some time since to New Grenada tol
seed of the potato there cultivated, and few
days since portion had arrived, which be
wished to exhibit and distribute to members
present. They were undoubtedly two yarie-
ties among this seed but both were fine look
ing
Mr. Maxwell asked an explanation Of the
property in the potato disease which causes
one-half of tuber to be perfectly good, and
the other half entirely worthless. Col. Clark
replied that the different parts Of the potato
ripep at different times-the end on which
the eyes are situated maturing first
A gentleman present stated that he had
preserved potatoes quite well in charcoal and
sand, very dry.
DIR. Underhill thought it not proper to as
cribe all diseases Of the potato to one cause.
Two or three years previous to the breaking
out of the disease, he had observed an eui-
demc as it might be called, There was ex-
ceedingly heavy rains while the ground was
heated to $50 On the month of July) This
was in Westchcster county. Within two days
after these heavy rains, the tops of the pota-
toes began to die, and the skins of the plants
of the potatoes were blistered, as if by scald-
ing water All the potatoes within three
inches of the surface of the ground decayed
within less than ten days after the rain
Vast quantities Of the potato were thus lost in
that country,and he was confident it was from
the cause he had mentioned, and not from
the disease then under consideration. His
observations were not confined to one field,
but to number.
A discussion arose as to whether the Legis-
Iature should be petitioned for q renewal Of
the bounty on silk, which expired in June
last, but the motion and Il resolution there
with submitted, we're finally ruled out, and
the Association adjourned to meet again at
the same place on the goth of this month.
