KEEPING SWEET PorAToEs.-A
writer in the Country Gentleman
says: II have seen several plans
tried for keeping sweet potatoes,
such as putting them up in dry sand,
chaff, ETC.; but | have found that
rotten wood, finely pulverized, is the
best thing yet. Collect the rotten
wood in the summer or early fall;
get it perfectly dry; grind or pound
it fine; pack your sweet potatoes in
it in boxes or barrels and keep them
in q warm room or in the cellar
close up to the floor Of the house,
and you need have no fear but that
your potatoes will be as good in the
spring as when you packed them
