Killing Potnfoea

Last year we were testing the capaC-
ity of the Early Goodrich, and laid of
one acre, exactly square, for this pur-
pose. In our practice we find it most
profitable never to tell our men it is
none of their business to think, but
merely do what we tell them" We like
to encourage thought in them and fire.
quently allow things to be done we dis
approve of, if it is likely to educate
them at no great cost to themselves.
50 when the potatoes were in season
for hilllng we found there was a disa-
greement between the superintendent
and the plOughman. The former was
for billing up, the latter-a good Mont
gomery county farmer-for leaving them
on the surface. We agreed with the
latter; but ia order TO respect the opin-
ion OF the superintendent, decided that
only every other row should be hilled.
On digging, the crop was found TO be
very evenly distributed over the whole
square In every row of hilled ones
t1ere was more than in the others
ABOUT nall bushel generally-making
On the nall acre total gain of seven
teen bushels over the Hat cultivated
ones, though every other circumstance
was exactly the same. The whole eron
was I'll bushels on the acre; had thev
all been hilled, there would have hae1
rs bushels. We plant very wide apart:
rows three feet, aAd potatoes two feet
apart, and soil stony hill top.-P-sss

ALendinx Editor Dead.

The telegraph brings US the unpleas-
ant Intelligence that Mr.. HENRY J..
RAYMOND, editor ot the New York
Times, died yesterday morning at five
o'clock. Mr.. RAYMOND has long been
known as one of the ablest men and
most successful and influential editors
in this country. His paper, the Times,
has welded n marked influence upon
the policy of the Republican party, of
which it was a representative, and also
upon the general American public, by
whom its great merits have long been
recognized Mr.. RAYMOND died sud
denly, and in the very prime of life and
usefulness; cut down when honOrs were
thickening upon him and the futsre
was brightest before him. With the
exception ef Mr.. GREELEY, no man
could be more missed from the editorial
profession of our land than he; none
more sincerely mourned by the reading
public. His death is national loss.

E. King are highly gratiied with his able
and earnest support Of the Capital bill in

in the opinion that St. Cloud is the proper
location for = Capital. Yours is \ nice
town for many purposes, but We do not
think it presents the advantages Of Randi.
yohi for the object mentioned.
Greenleaf is gradually increasing in pop
ulation and in business enterprise. The
Messrs. Parker, late Of Mantorville, have
built drug store and commenced trade in
that line Of business. The Island Semina-
~ building is to be enlarged AID repaired.
Hon. Dana E. King contemplates building
new house as residence. Hon. John
