The PRESERVATION oP POTATOES TOR SEED
Mr.. j. n. Chandler, n correspondent Of
the Patent Office, speaking of the prescrva-
ton OF potatoes for seed, says the potato,
when first obtained from It's naive noun
tairs, was small, watery, and even a bitter
tuber but by cultivation it has been brought
into SO high and refined a state that most of
the countries of the civilized globe look at it
as one of the most important articles of food.
In answer TO the question by what means
has il been made chief article Of food, he
says by violating the laws Of nature;
every one who has ever noticed the diff.
ference between the flavor Of the potato in
the fall, Wien first dug, and one in spring
which mas been kept in "A large dry cellar
has observed that the flavor becomes much
Unprecedented more 50 than those which
are buried in holes in the earth, where they
retain nearly all OF their freshness and vital
ty. Il has also been observed that farmers
who have small aud announcement cellars,
keep their potatoes in better condition than
those who keep them in large, cool oueS-
Hence, by storing tlcm in the latter, and
let them wilt before planting they become
weakened in their nature aud are subject to
iegeneracy, and finally to disease.
In order TO obtain good potatoes for seed,
make choice Of small spot Of arabic land
in which water will not stand-an eastern
slope and new ground are the best--plough.
ed carly in the spring and fIrrowcd 1 or 8
inches deep, y feet apart. Select middling
sized potatoes which have touched the
ground daring the winter previous, but do
not cut them. Drop one every inches
along the burrows, and cover them by filling
the burrows with earth. Then cover them
with q top-dress!ng OF forest leaves or straw
inches deep. As soCn as the tops of the
young plants are . inches high pass between
them with shovel plough, followed with 4
hoe, destroying the weeds and levclling the
gro.nd; do not hill. This is all you have
to do until fall. When the ground begins
to freeze, cover over with straw, chaii or
forest leaves, inches deep, to keep them
from frost. Your potatoes will now have a
chance to ripen and rest during the winter
In this way, you will have the greatest yield
and best quality. Continue this course from
year to year and the rot will not only dis
appear, but your crop will increase from %
to 100 per cent. The third year You may
increase your field crop by ploughinS. in
fine manure. You will now have had ma.
ture's course"
