Planting Small Potatoes.

small half all ounce. IMPLANTED eaily.
in moist soil, the small sets gave as
large potatoes as any, but not quite 80
heavy crop. II planted IN dry wealth.
or, the small seed dried up and proved
a partial or total failure. The London
Garden contains statement of expert.
ments In England, the potatoes plant.
Cd the llth of March, part the largest
that could he selected; the small ones
about the size of hens eggs. The large
potatoes produced more stalks, and, us
a consequence, greater number of po-
latoes, which were smaller In size than
the fewer from the small seed. The
small potatoes gave the heaviest yield.
They were the Early Rose, and yielded
at the rate of over six hundred bushels
per acre, on a small piece of ground.
There must have been some mex
planned cause of the small seed yield
ing the most, but there would doubt
less he less difference between large and
small seed In the moist climate of Eng
land than In our drier and hotter re-
giens.
