We have invariably ignored the practice
Of cutting potatoes to plant, supposing that
nature put them in her favorite form for re.
production, and to nourish the young plant I;
and that by cutting them We opened the
vessels for the evaporation of nutritivc quail.
ities, and lessened the means of nourishment
which young plants draw from the seed.
The experience of last season has brought
US results in this matter, which, If continued
success attends it, will prove Of some i'm.
portance.
Early in May last we turned over piece
Of sod, and towards the close of the month
planted it with whole potatoes. When this
was planted, having few bushels left, We
plowed another piece adjoining tho one al
ready planted; this was done in June. The
seed potatoes for this piece were cut into
such small pieces that less than one half the
quantity was used than in the former case.
The same variety Of potatoes wero planted
on each piece, and the same tillage given.
No manure was given, only table spoonful
Of plaster in each hill.
When the potatoes we're dug, late in oc-
tober, full one.tbird Of those on the ground
where the seed was planted whole, were
made worthless by tho rot. Where they
were cut for planting, the potatoes were of
good size, with scarcely any appearance of
rot.
Such are the ways Of management and
the results; and there we leave the matter
for If We would We cannot tell whether the
same course will lead to the same end in a
second trial. Atmospheric and other causes
which We cannot control, might change the
whole result. One thing, however, If cut
potatoes arc as good for seed, vast quanti-
ties that would otherwise be planted, mag
be saved for other purposes each year. A
careful following out Of the experiment is
the only true way to reach facts available
in practice.
