The row planted with the seed ends of large
potatoes gave bushel to twenty eight hills,
some Of fair size mostly small; and the row
planted with seed ends of small potatoes give
Its bushel to thrtyfour hills, all small of course
and nearly worthless. 9 g
The best seed for potato growing, is one
medium sized tuber to the hill, with the iced
end pared of, but otherwise uncut The ne xt
best is one half OF a large potato to the hill,
cut from end to end, and the eyes In and near
the seed end cut out, SO as not to produce lit
tie vine-lke plants to be entangled and in the
way OF the larger plants. The third best
would be the bntt7ends Of small potatoes, few
In q hill not more than two or three at most;
as with more, q thicket Of feeble plants, with
many and smaller tubers, would be the result.
The fourth best would be, the seed ends OF
very large potatoes. The writer has viewed
the matter practically and experimentally for
a long term Of years, and believes most con-
tadently that nothing is gained by drilling po-
btoes exceptincreased labor; that they should
be in rows three feet apart by two in the row,
fir perhaps iu very weedy land two and hali
feet each way would be better; and that the
seeding SO as to get but few and large plants
in each hill is important to the best results

Experiment in Raising Potatoes.

A farmer in Michigan, as reported in the
Western Rural, having fitted piece of sward
for the purpose, planted part OF it, In the
common way with that region, with cut pota
toes, putting three pieces in q hill, rows three
feet apart, hills two and half feet in the row.
Other parts of the same field were planted
differently, as will, appear by the following
statement Of results: 4
The part planted in the usual way, as mem
toned above, with three cuttings in hill,
yielded bushel 10 twenty-five hills Moth
ing is reported with regard to the size ct these;
but every grower of this lcrop, viii make up
his mind at once, that they must have been OF
all sizes, from the smallest to the largest, many
too small to be of much worth.
The row planted with butt-ends yielded d
bushel to fifteen hills, all large, fit for cooking,
no small ones. The size Of these was Just
what an observant grower Of this crop would
expect. The small eyes, in and near the end
OF the tuber, are apt to produce small pota-
toes but the large deeply set eyes, in and near
the butt-end, almost always produce large
ones unless prevented by too frequent killings.
The potatoe, however often on the ground
may need wedding, should be hilIed once, and
but once for the reason that every time the
earth is drawn up against the,stalk, new sets
are formed, and if the operation is repeated,
the sets become too numerous, and must there
AOAS bNA4C Vi tuSAA 10 clAUC0e ~ flilC Uubt-cHOS
only are planted, if the soil is Of fair quality
and the potatoes hilled but once, the crop may
reasonably be expected to consist Of large tub
ers only, there being noreasOn why every set
should not attain liberal growth. q
The row planted with whole potatoes yield
ed q bnshel to seventeen hills, some small
ones. This, too, is exactly what an experience
ed observant potato grower would have ex-
pected. More hills were required for bush
ell than In the last case simply because the
many snaalliplants, spfinging from the seed
eud OF the whole potato, were hindrance Of
the growth and produtcivenees Of the large
plants, springing from the butts. The seed
from the potato crop should be so adjusted as
to give, not many, and weak plants, all slug
Cling for space, but few and strong plants,
with space enough for each to allow 1t to
branch out, tree fashion. On a well prepared,
fertile soil, there should be fewai any plants
less than hve-eights Of an inch in diameter;
few that do not assume the form Of tree in
stead Of q creeping vine; and there will be but
few indeed, If the seeding and cultivation be
right.

looking back over his own History and the
Histories of all his comrades in arms during
this War, we are endeavoring to prepare
for publication brief History Of erery man
that has ever been connected with the Regi

From the loss of pa pers, and the imperfect
manner in which they were kept during the
early part of the service, we find it difficult
to get correct data for a correct History of
those officers and men who were discharged
during the first two or three years Of the
War.
We therefore ask it as faver Of the off,
GERS and men who have belonged to the Regi
ment but who have been discharged, to send
us correct statement of their Histories
while connected with the Regiment, giving
the correct dates, and the different items as
presented in the following example:
