ADVICE TO FARmERs.-The editor Of

sensible and patriotic advice, which
will apply equally to all classes Of the
community" Go to the ballot box,
and there vote for those whom YOU ho-
nestly judge to be the best men for Of
flee. We can respect the manly oppo-
nent Of our opinions-we can respect
the jealous supporter Of men and mea.
sures that we distrust; but the citizen
who manifests Indifference to our po-
litical ins,itutions-the man who cares
not to vote, we cannot consider a good
citizen, or fit subject to be favored
with the blessings of free govern.

Irish Potatoes. urged our read
ers last week to plant potatoes for
seed. We subjoin the following BY way
Of encouragement. in the hope that
if they do not act ON our suggestions
this year. they will next. We copy
from the Baltimore Sun:
PorAroEs PRorrTAnLK CRoP.-Mr.
Robert w. Lewis, near Charlottesville,
Va. planted last year ON a piece OF
land less than an acre. upon which
he bad put fifty loads pf manure. six
bushels of mercer potstoes, from which
he raised three hundred bushels Of very
superior pcsatoes. Last week he sold
portion Of them at 81 per bushel.
From what follows it will also be
seen that some men, in some places,
are not blind to their interests, and
that cultivating the Irish potato is with
them source nt immense profit. Ii will
prove SO to the farmers Of North Carroll
ma, if they will turn their attention to II
in the right way. Let them read and
reflect:
RAISING PorAToEs.-The farmers in
the vicinity Of Philadelphia are said To
be planting an unusual quantity Of po-
toes this year. One individual. who
last year had some thirty acres in po-
tatoes, from which he sold three thou
sand bushels, netting over one dollar
per bushel. has this spring put in one
hundred acres, and his neighbors have
increased their planting ia about the
same proportion.

SAVING MANURE.

The Michigan Farmer gives the prac.
tice of a Scotch Farmer, in the saving
and management Of his manure. which
we regard as eminently economical Of
its fertilizing qualities and worthy Of
general adoption except in the depth 81
winter, when it may be decayed. To
prevent dissipation by evaporation and
washing. he draws it away as fast as il
is thrown from the stable. piles it up
in some convenient place on the farm,
FIRST placing a layer Of the fresh manure
to the depth Of eight or ten inches, then
a layer Of common soil about four inch
es thick, which presses the course down
to about the same thickness, then an.
other layer of manure, which in like
manner is followed by another layer ol
earth, and so on till the pile is compile
ted. In this way the volatile portions
are preserved, and he asserts the ma
nure is of double value to what it would
have been lying in the yard.
We have tried the above, and find il
most excellent plan. Let the dirt be
the richest you can get from the swamp,
from fence corners or rich deposits, and
add as many weeds and as much trash
as you can get; and it will be greatly
improved by liberal sprinkle Of salt
and water and strong ashes on every
layer of the manure. Ed. STAR.
