How TO- RAISE GOOD PoTAToEs.--My OBJ
ject in writing at this time is TO give you a
method of growing potatoes free from the
tot. have practised il two seasons with
entire success5and have now 600 bushels
Of fine Mercer potatoes in my cellar, al free
from the disease. .i.4 .., ....f
My method is.to plough the ground late
IN the fall or early in the spring, harrow it
smoothly before planting time. then haul ont
say fifteen tons rotted manure, spread il
broad d-cast, then take two horses and a
plough, and back up, two full f'rrows JUS
meeting in the backing; leave strip one
foot wide, and back up two more-and so
continue until you have completed the lot.
Then turn about and split these double fur
rows open with single furrow, then com.
mence dropping your potatoes, (pieces Of
cut potatoes, containing at least four eyes)
in the furrow six inches apart. After the
lot is dropped, take your horses and plough
and throw two good furrows-( one round of
the team To arow,) just meeting on the top:
dress off the top, clear ng the row of stones.
cl IDS, &C.; then SOW broadcast FIVE bushels
common salt over the ground Immediately
after planting; cultivate well till the plants
are in blossom and you will have a good
crop; never. cultivate potatoes when in bios

When tie crop is ready to gather, clear
the ground, take your two horses and plough,
turn furow from each side Of the row;
let boy pick i,up the scattering: potatoes,
then turn ou! therrow, pick upthe potatoes;
then hoe down the ridge-astly harrow O.
yer the ground, pick up the remaining pota-
toes, and the work is finished. The, agri-
culturist must at once observe that by this
process, he gets broad loose bed for the
potatoes 10 grow in, also double depth1 Of
soil; then you are certain of good dry pota-
toes. would here observe, that potatoe
ground is the very best for producing good
crop Of wheat; and l would advise farmers
to grow greater surplus of this most valua-
BILE root. If there is no market, store them
and feed them TO your horses, cattle, and
hogs; feed them in your stable through the
winter; give your stock good bedding; clean
out your stables once week make as large
manure heap US possible; and you will not
be troubled with the potatoe disease, nor
that worse malady, arising from always ,a-
king out of the meal tub and never returning
any; you will thus come TO the bottom
