DECREASE OF PoTATo.-Some years ago,
gentleman visiting a farmer in Tolland
Connecticut, took from his pocket a small
potato, which somehow had got in there at
home. 1t was thrown out with a smile, and
the farmer taking it in his hand to look at it,
curious httle boy of twelve, standing at his
elbow, asked him what it was. . Oh, -
said he, - nothing bat a potato, my boy :;
take and plant it, and you Shall have all you
can raise from it till you are of age" The
lad took it, and the farmer thought no more
about 1t at the time. The boy. however, not
'lespising small potatoes, carefully divided it
INTO as many pieces as he could find eyes,
and put them into the ground. The product
was carefully put aside in the fall, and plan
ted in the spring, and so on till the fourth
year, when the Yield being good, the actual
product was four hundred bushels The
farmer seeing the prospect that the potato
field would by another year, cover his whole
farm. asked to be released from his promise.

How to Increase the Value OF Cow.
Every one who owns COW can see at
glance that it would be profitable to increase
the value Of her. but every one cannot see
how to do it. We can, md we think that
we can make it equally palpable 70 Our
readers. ia COW is kept for butter, it Ger.
tanly adds 10 her value if the butter. making
properties Of her milk shodd he improved.
In Summer or Winter tins can be improved
Just as the yield of n cultivated crop car be
improved by what is fed to each, and it is
simply question of will it pay, in manur-
ing one or feeding the other. Indian corn
will add to the Quantity and quality of the
butter to very sensible degree, and it is
merely question Of easy solution, by exper-
jinent, whether it will add to the profits of
the buttcr-maker to buy corn at one or two
cents pound and convert portion of it into
butter at twenty-five cents pound, or
whatever the market price ofcorn and butter
may be- and another portion of it into fat,
and another portion of it into manure, for
that is the natural result of the chemical
change produced in the laboratory of the
COW S ston ach. The same result will follow
any other kind of feeding. Good pasture
will produce an abundance of milk, often as
much as tie COW can carry; but does it follow
that even then it will not be profitable to feed
her on some more olcaginous food to increase
the quantity Of butter, just as it sometimes
proves profitable to feed bees to enable them
to store more honey! 1t certainly does ap.
pear to us that the value Of COW, feeding
upon ordinary winter food. may be almost
doubled by making that food suitable for the
purpose o., increasing the quantity Of milk if
that is the purpose for which the COW is kept.
Farmers generally understand that they can
convert corn into beef, pork and lard, and
some tf them know exactly at what price per
5ushel it will pay to convert it into these
Substances but does any one know at what
rate it will pay to convert corn or any other
grain into butter, or any other kind of feed
into any of the dairy products? Is the whole
business hap-ha:ard one7 We fear so.-
Some persons know that they can increase
the saleable valne of butter by adding the col
oring matter of carrots to it. Does any
person know the value of bushel of carrots
fed to COW to increase her value as butter
producing laboratory? Experimental proof
upon this point would be far more worthy Of
agricultural prizes than it is to see who can
show the largest sized roos for by few
carefully conducted experiments we should
be able to increase the value of COW almost
at pleasure.
