Noah Webster on Potato
.. Culture.

Noah Webster's worldwide fame
does not rest on what be knew OF
farming, but the following letter:
dated New York, April 29. 1767:
and addressed to Robert R. Living,
ston, President of the New York
Agricultural Soiety," shows that
he was careful observer of some.
thing elsethar words. He writes:
"You know my love of the fret
and best occupation of man-agri-
culture-and how anxious [ am to
see this most useful business i'm
proved among. my fellow-citizens.
In my present situation [ have
no opportunity to make expert
ments on q larger scale; but some
observations made The last year,
on the growth Of potatoes, may
possibly be worth the nollce of the
AgricalturalSocicty. From SIM
gle. experiment, I am led to the
following results:
l. The seed potatoes should be
those of full growth.
2. Cuttings produce more than
whole potatoes.
3. The English Whites grow to
perfection in i shorter time; and
upon poorer soil than the cred. The
difference is essential They are,
therefore, best for early potatoes.
4. Potatoes will not come to per-
fection without the sun. There
fore nothing is so prejudicial as to
plant them too thick, especially
upon rich soil.
5. The cuttings in drills, where
the land is light, will answer we'll
al nine inches distance. This
seems to be good distance for the
whites. But in rich land, especial
ly if the potatoes be of the red
kind, the stalks Of which grow to-
q large size, the distance should be
not less than from twelve to fifteen
inches. -. =.
If these observations contain
anything not generally known,
you are at liberty to lay them be-
fore the society. If not, the COM
munication you will please sup
