Potatoes for Summer use.

As the majority Of the farmers do not get
new" potatoes very early in the season, It
Is matter Of some Importance TO them TO
have the old crop so kept as 10 be in good
condition through the Spring and Summer
months. About the poorest vegetable that
can be placed upon the table is poor po-
tato. A.correspondent in Clinton county,
Indiana, who don't think it much of a
striekf to raise a good crop, but thinks it
IS one to keep them well, gives the Prairie
Farmer the following, which we trust VIII
DO tested by others. He says;
Take good, sound potatoes and place them
IN tnD or barrel, and pour boiling water
over them, letting them remain I'M the wa
ter until the "eyes" are sealded SO they will
not sprout; dry the potatoes thoroughly i'm
the sun. and put them away in a box or
barrel In cool, dry place. This will give
good, "mealy" potatoes all the time Now
is the proper time TO attend TO 1t.
