Pot.toe. cause Of ~ Rot.

Attn recent meeting of the Farmers Club
In New York, member inquired what wa,
the reason that potatoes were cut ups before
sbey were planted. He believed that the
potato ought to be planted whole, and. that
the natural nutriment Of the eye wss con.
tanned In the other part Of the potato. A
member replied that he had tried the expert
ment of planting. potatoes whole, but found
that II made no difference with large pota-
toes whether they were cut in two or not
There was popular error in regard to the
terminating power Of the potato, which was
supposed TO be confined TO the eye. He was
convinced that this was not So and had seen
sprouts appear from the cut surface Of the
potato where there was no VISIBLE eye.
John II. Klippare, Columbus, Ohio, gives
his views on the causes of the potato rot In
the Nahonoi Agriculturist published, at
Pittsburg, Pennsylvania. He traces the dis
ease TO excessive cultivation and 10 hybridi-
zation as one Of the natural consequences oil
It. In his opinion potatoes so crossed rs To
have flesh Of more than one color will be
found subject TO the rot, while those of but
one will be found free from this tendency
Assuming this TO be correct, bis remedy is to
plant none but the smaller potatoes, and
those Of variety without q CROSS
Where large potatoes are selected for seed
the rot is most certain to follow, while the
reverse Is true with respect TO small Ones
In conclusion he says: 1.-THE rot in potatoes
is disease not caused by fungus, but the
fungus ensues as a consequence of the disease,
the same as smut or brand In our Indian corn
Is not the couse but the consequence of alb
normal conditions"
