Irish Potatoe Culture.

The Augusta COnStituti0naLiSt makes the
following suggestions in regard to the cul-
ture of Irish potatoes, which will apply
equally as well to Tennessee as Georgia:
If proper attention is given to the cul
tivation of the Irish potatoe it will be found
one of the most useful and profitable of
our Southern productions. One acre will
ordinarily produce from fifty to one hun
dred bushels, and even more than that
They are ready for use in May and early in
June, and viii always insure a good price
at home and abroad
We have planted them for many years,
in different kinds of soil, both poor and
rich, and have never failed to make a good
crop. Our mode of cultivation is this :
Break up the soil deep with a turn pillow,
then cross, harrow level, and break the
clods well run off the rows three feet
apart with a turn plow, run back in the
same furrow, thus throwing the soil out
each way, run in the same furroW with a
sub-soil plow if at hand, if not, with bull
tongue, this makes the trench from ten to
fifteen inches deep, aud loosens the soil
even below that; this retains the moisture
and makes mellow, loose bed for the po-
tatoe to grow in. Cut the potatOe, each
eye separate, and drop them carefully in the
trench, six inches apart, eyes upward.
Compost from the barn yard makes good
manure, and may be used to advantage
Last years wheat straw fed to and tramp
ed by stock during the winter, produces
well. We prefer, however, to fill the tren-
ches with fresh stable manure, for the rea-
son that it is heating during the cold
weather in early spring, and forces the po-
tatoe to sprout and come up early. Being
light it prevents the ground from becoming
hard from heavy rains. It begins to decay
just at the time the potatoe needs nourish-
ment, and being a spring crop, matured
and gathered previous to the hot weather,
it seldom fires. AS soon as the vine is
high enough and strong enough, throw tie
dirt to it with a small plow, which may be
repeated twice at the proper intervals,
which will make ridge sufficient to COM
pete the crop,
We have tried several varieties of seed,
and find the pink-eye one of the most de-
licious for table use, and in this climate is
quite favorite. The Jackson white and
large red are the most productive aud best
adapted for market. They are more hardy
and certain, and we recommend them to
our readers.

Trial of the Steam Plow.


The New Orleans Crescent says: The
public curiosity has been largely excited
within few days by an appearance on our
thoroughfares of cumbrous machine, a
steam engine drawing a train of plows.-
This steam pillow, as it is technically known,
is an invention which is the property Of
Messrs. John Fowler & Co., of Leeds,
England. 1t has been in use in the valley
of the Nile for some time, and there, we
are assured, is an established improvement
Messrs. Longstreet, Owen & Co., have
given the large influence of their names,
as agents, in presenting the novelty 10 the
consideration of planters in the South.
Mr.. Max Eigth, formerly chief engineer
on the staff Of Pasha Hahn, when that
pasta held the viceroyalty in Egypt, comes
with the machine to superintend expert
ments made with it. Having witnessed in
Egypt the operations of the pillow, he is
convinced that i; VIII be as successful here
as it was on the Nile, aud yesterday his h-
vorile implement was tested on the Fair
Grounds. A large company witnessed the

IRISH PoTAToEs.-UndeT our horticultu-
raj head, we ought to said a word or two
on Irish Potatoe seed. One of the hand
soonest and best potatoes brought from the
North is the Peach BIow-large, white
skinned, with pink eyes, aud splashed with
brilliant red. But this potatoe is about the
most unsatisfactory one we can plant. 1t
ripens too late. Our dry. hot weather
comes on just when the potatoe begin to
form. In this climate the earlier a potatoe
ripens the better, as during its whole sea-
son of growth it is supplied with the album
dant moisture left in the soil by the winter
rains. AS to keeping, the early as good
as the late, as all must be spread on a dry
floor, out of the sun, to keep them from
sprouting, which renders them worthless
for the table. Our early Goodrich and
Garnet Chili's are as dry and mealy now
as when just dug. Both are good, the
first, we believe, the best potatOe in cnltiva-
ton. jackson, white, Harrison, Monitor,
Pinkeye, early Sebec, COlebrOok Seeding,
and even the old Mercer, ara all likely to
be more useful in Southern gardens than
the Peach BIow.-,Souther7a CuItiOatOr.

About two acres were plowed in the pre-
sence of the party. The ground was mat
ted with an old growth of grass. 1t had
been tramped, and beside the soil was nat
urally heavy aud. by late rains. was unusu-
ally wet. The sod was turned beautifully
to PlOwman's eye, at an average depth of
ten to twelve inches. An obstruction was
put on the field, and the ploy was guided
to avoid the obstruction with quite as much
facility as if the motive power were cattle
or mules, and the stills were held by an
exacting plOwmen. A stump in the way
was torn up remorselessly. In such mat
ters as this, theories amount to little, but
the unanimous opinion of the planters on
the ground, all of whom watched the ope-
rations of the pillow with the deepest inter-
est, was that it was a decided success
After the blowing, experiments were made
with the locomotive, passing over pillow ed
