TO RAISE POTATOES.

4 cor6spo uGent-Ni lliam Aldridge Of
Goreland, Ind.-writing 10 the Prairie
Farmer, states that having noticed how
potatoes were interrupted in their growth
and invariably pined away and died if
disturbed and bruised when wet with
dew or rain, he selected q patch Of pota-
toe field, tie whole Of which was good
soil and in good order to try an expert
ment. This patch ne only ploughed
once, and then loosened the soil with a
hoe, Wien the vines were above the
ground. and in the heat OF the day when
perfectly dry. He never touched them
afterwacd until they were dug in October
last year. These vines kept green
throughout the season, and the yield Of
potatoes was very large. The other por-
ton Of this same potatoe field was pur-
posely worked three times, when the
vines were wet with the dew. These
bHghted early, did not produce halt a
crop, and the potatoes were OF a very in.
ferior quality. The ground. seed and
time OF planting in both patches were
( the same.
