How to Raise Potatoes.

A report in the Springfield Mass
Republican, of the doings Of Farm
er's Club, recently held at Chicopee
farm house, includes the following on
the subject of potato raising:
One of the party, large grower OF
potatoes, and who has at present
about 500 bushels in store, gave his
experience, as follows He prefers
corn ground that has been manfred
the year previous. Strong manure, he
said, makes diseased potatoes. After
blowing and narrowing unmanured
ground, he marks out the rows, four at
. time. In these rows he drops single
pieces Of cut potatoes eighteen inches
apart. A medium seized potato is
enough for four hills, or about six bush
els of seed to the acre. Large seed
potatoes give about one-fourth more
product at harvest than small ones.
Small potatoes have about as many
eyes as large ones, but the sprouts
from those eyes are not "a large or
vigorous. The potatoes are covered
about two inches deep.
T, The potato veget ates slowly, and
usually weeds start before the potatoes.
When the potatoes have sprouted so
as generally TO show themselves above
the ground, hoeing machine is intro.
duced, which covers the potatoes some
two inches deeper and destroys the
weeds like a plow. Subsequently the
potatoes are hoed twice and receive no
further care till digging. The com
mon yield is about 200 bushels pc,
acre. He digs with hook, and from
80 to 80 bushels per day to man.
Davis Seedlings are his favorites.

How LONG SHOULD Cows Go DRY +?

How Lone SHOULD Cows Go Dry
in answer to this question, cores
pondent of the Ohio Farmer furnishes
the following simple suggestions. AT.
ter saying that no rule could apply TO
all cows alike, he adds =" have
found that cows inclined to take on fat
could be MIXED up to within two week,
of calving, and have both cow and
calf healthy and plump; and cows tina,
could not be fattened while milking,
required from four to six weeks of rest
from milk giving previous to calving,
otherwise the calf was small and not
well formed, and tho following years
supply OF milk much lessened."

Bravely charging he fell dead,
Fighting foremost in the van.
Cheering with a mighty cheer.

Now he lies upon his bier.
Cold and stately, still and grand.
Slowly gather round him now,

Then with solemn feet and slow,
Mourning for his early DOOM
With your folded banners go.
