Raising Potatoes under Straw.

Several OF our correspondents, within year
have spoken favorably of the practice Of plant
ing potatoes and covering with straw, both as q
less laborious and more profitable method oi
raising that crop. The idea is not new to US.
AS long ago as 1891. we saw this method prac'
tised in Vermont, aud it was reported highly
successful, but for reasons it has not come into
general use. The experiments we tried were
by selecting short pasture field, dropping the
seed at suitable distances over the ground, and
then covering the whole with coating Of straw
to the depth of foot. In the Fall the straw
was raked off and the potatoes picked up, all
dry. In wet seasons this plan was thought 10
be very effective The editor of the Pike Co.
I'm. Free Press has been presented with po
tatoes raised the last season by Mr.. Ship
man of this vicinity, and details as follows;
Mr.. Shipman informed us that he plant
ed them in the usual manner, then covered
them to the depth of about six inches with
straw after this no further cultivation was re-
qured-Lhe straw kept down the weeds, and
the potatoes were not disturbed until they were
dug. Not only has this method produced him
very superior potatoe, but it has this year
brought him an extraordinary yeld-4 bush
els to the square rod, or at the rate Of 6lO
lus' ell, to he acre
He has tried this mode Of culture for three
years past, and has in every instance found il
to bring results superior to the common meth
od.-This year he has planted at three differ
cnt tnnes, with the following results:
Early in April he planted Meshanocks in
both ways, and Pinkeyes under the straw all
were in the same kind Of ground. The Mesh.
ancck cultivated yielded bushels and peck
to the square rod; those covered with straw 8
bushels nnd peck, and the Pinkeycs covered
4 bushels.
Pinkeyes planted on the 94.h Of May, GOV
with straw, yialded Fl bushels and quarts tC
the square rod. They were the smallest potA-
toes,
Pinkeyes planted ab ut the last Of June,
covered. brought bushels and quart to the
square rod. These, although the smallest
yield, were the largest potatoes, aAd of the
best quality. -[ohio Cultivator.
