POTATOES.

1t would be an excellent plan for eve
~ farmer to occasionally plant the pota-
10 ball, and thus get new varieties, as
well as healthy seed. Continued re-
planting of potatoes, without resorting
10 the seed, it as absurd as to take roots
from an old tree to produce an orchard.
Plant small, but sound and healthy
potatoes cutting impairs the vitality
Of the sprout.
For healthy potatoes, a light dry, loose
and warm soil is preferable. A wet
heavy compact soil promotes decay.
The flavor of a potato is materially
affected by the soil and manure. Lime
wood ashes, charcoal, plaster, salt and
all other -putrescent articles are good
as they add to the health of the potato,
as well as to its richness aud Favor
For manure well rotted compost, is pre-
t5rable. -Unrottcd stable manure is
TOO strong and heating. and gives them q
disagrecab!e flavor.

CREOLE BUTTER.

They have in New Orleans a pale
Swce, delcacy known as Creole Butter
generally supposed to be made directly
from tho fresh milk of the cow, as it le-
ultimately is; but there is another way,
1t seems, and the hint it furnishes may
be of use to our readers. An exchange
says:
The noghbors of a certain lady in
the Fonrth District. New Orleans, have
recently discovered the nature Of some
thing that has seemed miracle for
months past. They knew that the lady
had but one COW, and they knew also
that the lady's two little negroes peddled
as much creole butter daily as could be
produced by dozen common cows
luGuiSlion got so high on the subject at
last, that the lady had to let out the Sc
crct and in its travels it has reached us.
Sho told friend that her cow was only
IL common COW and didn't produce any
butter, but yielded milk enough in which
70 ro-churn any quality ofstrong Goshen
butter which she buys wholesale at the
groceries, and converts by the said re-
churning in new milk, into creole but
ter, which always commands the highest
pricos.-She added also, that by this
process she had made clear profit,
since last June Of twelve hundred dol
lars.
