Cultivating Sweet Potatoes.


The many inquiries concerning the cu!.
ture Of The Sweet Potatoe shows that there
is an increasing interest in this crop
There oeerns to be no doubt that in favor
able seasons, with proper culture, good
crop may be grown as far north as Wis.
consin. The land should be warm and
light, and plenty Of manure supplied
In last months basket and calender, di.
rsotons were given for starting the plapsu.
Those who have no seed potatoes from
which to obtain plants, may procure them
from persons in New York State, Ohio
and elsewhere, who raise them in large
quantities. The plants will go along dis.
tance without injury. There ere two
ways Of planting in rows and in hills
The ground being in good condition, mark
it off in three feet rows and spread a good
dressing Of manure along the marks then
form ridges by turning two burrows to.
gether over the manure. The ridges should
be 10 inches high, foot wide, and 3 or
inches wide at top. Set the plants l6
inches apart in the ridges. In planting in
hills the following directions are by j. W.
C.,whose method Of starting the plants,
was given in last months basket. The
manure about l2 loads to the aore,is turn.
ed over two or three times before using,
working in good soil SO that at the fnal
turning the manure will be about one.third
soil. The ground is plowed and harrow.
ed and marked out % feet each way
About two quarts of manure are put at
The crossing Of each mark, and half hill
formed with the hoe. He prefers to de.
lay finishing the bill! until just at the time
of setting the plants, as they then have
The benefit Of freshly, stirred earth. The
plants are set from May 10th to juno 2Oth
according to the season. After the plants
are set, the ground is kept clean by the
horse and hand hoe. In setting the plants
in hills or on ridges, they should be put
in with dibble or trowel, and if the soil
is at all dry the holes should be filled with
water before putting in the plants Set
them as deep as the first leaf and press
che soil firmly around the roots. Mr.. r.
S. Smith, Ashtabula Co., o., applies well
rotted manure and ashes, narrowing. in in
autumn, and lets the land lie until ready
to transplant, when he turns up the ridges
as before described but without manuring
beneath them. His rows are 81 feet apart
and the plants are set l2 inches distant in
the rows. He makes holes an inch in di.
ameter, and inches deep, fills the hole
with water and makes mud around the
plant, but never presses the earth against
it. Mr.. E. Latham, Long Island, recon.
znends cutting off the vines when they
have reached the length Of 2 feet,and says
he gets good crop. This practice is COZ.
demned by others, and our experience has
been that the most luxuriant vines yield
the largest potatoes and the most of them.
A bushel of seed will produce from 5000
to 5000 sets,and an acre requires 5000 to
$4,000 plants, according 10 the manner of
planting g.-Ameyican Agricullariss,

Of Monday. a letter from E. A. Pollard,
dated at Baltimore, on the 26th of 0cto-
Der. Pollard i6was tho author of "a
Southern history Of the war;" written
early during the war. He was one OF
those who arc called at Richmond
"bomb proofs" that is those who shot
teroctous words. mot bullets) at long
taw, and killed whole regiments OF
Yankeesby the thunder and lightning
of his tremendous indignation. The
said Pollard is now a'v vagrant sojourner
in Baltimore, kind of Beau Hick-
man bohemian, and it is amusing to
see the, intense sentiment which he
affects. He is playing Pole, Hnnea-
rian, exile of Erin, and "I.o, the
Poor Indian," all rolled into one. he
laments in -bellic6se strains
the lapse of the Southern leaders from
heroic to suppliant attitudes. He oven
laments for General Leo, and as for
poor feeble Stephens, lately released,
he could weep for his apologetic posture
before and since his release. Its the
future of these men in history that
concerns Pollard. He fears that HIS
tory will write down the rebellion as
an ignoble affair by reas6n'of the ready
return of those engaged III 1t, to the
Union fold, instead Of standing off and
striking an attitude; and, waiting to be
entreated' to vote, to hold Office, and to
be otherwise "reeonstructed." !"
We have been no little amused in
reading the last effnsion OF the redoubt-
able Pollard. copy from his letter
as follows:
