Prepare to Plant Irish Potatoes.

During the ensuing month of February
potatoes should be planted for an early
crop. The proper time for preparing the
ground is in this month. Break up the
ground at least foot in depth with the
pillow or spade. This exposure of the soil
to the frosts of this month will destroy the
grub worms that are often destructive to
this crop in the Spring. In February
open burrows with the pillow or spade at
least ten inches deep, into which put three
of manure, which may be fresh from the
stables or COW pen, if no other be on hand.
Put two or three inches of soil on top of
the manure, when the trenches will be
ready for the tubers. Fill up the trenches
and make low ridge on the top of the
potatoes, which will give seven or eight
inches of soil to protect them from freez-
ing. If the Early Rose be the variety
planted, they will ripen from the first of
May to the middle of June, when they
may be Immediately planted for a second
crop.-RurH SOutherner.
