Cattlng ssed Po1aaoes.

The only disadvantage in cutting seed
potatoes is, in dry seasons. where the
eyes are cut out with very little potato
attached, the eye may dry up instead of
growing. The remedy for this is to press
each piece firmly in the ground, with the
foot, as it is dropped. Then cover about
four inches with loose earth and every
piece viii grow If wet, cold weather
follows planting, freshly-cut potatoes may
rot in the ground. To prevent this, cut
the seed a week before planting and roll
in plaster (gypsum) TO keep from drying
too much. The plaster will adhere to
the moist surfaces, which will harden
slightly, and the gypsum in contact with
the potato viii benefit the growth of the
crop more than If used in any other way
Cut potatoes are often burned or
scorched in the sun, if dropped too long
before being covered. Three or four
hours exposure in a cloudless May or
June day is sufficient to destroy the crop
Probably the sun and wind evaporate so
much moisture from the cut potato that
not enough is left to furnish moisture to
start the eyes. This is amatter of some
Importance where potatoes are planted in
large quantities and covered by horse
power. Some farmers in nv neighbor-
hood have lost one to three acres by leav-
ing potatoes uncovered too long, and
their experience may be valuable to
others Country Gentleman.
