Solos RoBissoS - Here is letter from Cnsnplsin,
March % wfish recommends something new IN potato
growing. The writer says
" Last Sp1ing nay brother, neophyte In fsrn-li'e
planted isT rous Of potatoes in tie garden, and
planted them 30 deeply taat his assst4nta Sestor IN
farm duties-dec.Ied they would never come up at
all. But more npoitsnt matters clsimet attention.
aId despite Od Joes remOostratce the poor potatoes
were suffered 10 remain 10 their deep prisou-oed.
Well N the Fall cur potatoes generally proved small
AMI few IN a hil' ara the digger declared the hills
which my brother had manipulated 10 be entirely
destitute, until IL bis Investigations, he clauc51 70
peIerste n @ compact sO below the loose earth Here
10 his surprise he Stumbled on perfect potsto-mne
deposit Of tubeTs mbeddef in the soil that their
dIfOJgment small IdOOf-tne sou Was 70
packed you'd have thought il never saw spade and
they the largest brightest emo Othest skinnet and
souDdestcoTed potatoes that ever the esrtl relied out
And one thug Wcrtny Of note while those surface
gIOsn were tainted with rot these like ivory and
now are as sound when frat taken from the gIOGnd
II ia OF ny Intention 70 theOrZe much but IS Il not
fair 10 suppose that potatoes planted nesr tbs surfsce
are affected by the changes OF the weather that the
clustering sun and dreuching rain contribute Ia no
email degree TO their decay while those deeper
planted draw their susteDaDcg from sod whose ten
peratuIe lie more equal nestle, az l; were IN the cool,
moist bosom Of earth, and, sucking her deep fOunts
are protected from tie extremes OF heat aud cold, OF
wet and droutb. Bot enough of speculation. B2ye
gwen the tacts and potato-growers can draw tteir
own copClusions. Ia any event however, Will II not
be well enough for them 10 try the experiment tnls
wear OF planting n row or two Of their pOtatOes at
twice their usual depth. The result in ths Fall may
impe them 20 adopt the experiment as rule, and
give them GAUGE 10 gratefully remember the sugges.
