AGRICULTURE.

GROWING HoRsE-RADISH III we look
through our markets and see the chunky
stun sold for horse-radish. IL Is clear
that not one in hundred knows how 10
grow it. Horse-radish well grown Is
as profitable as any garden CROP, but
we think there Is not much profit IN the
scrubby stuff referred TO. TO have
good horse-radlsh, u rather heavy soil
should be chosen, but by no means
wet, though one which gardeners would
call damp and cool will be by no means
objected to. 1t cannot very well be
made too rich, and If subsoiling the
ground ia to.find favor IL will surely be
IN favor with this crop. Now the OBJ
ject I'm raising good horse-radish is to
have long, clean, straight roots, and
good culture Is TO get these. In raising
norse-radish every piece of the root
what little of the crown grows. Gen
orally pieces an inch or so long are set
just beneath the soil, and one or more
ouds start up TO make crowns with
leaves, and others 90 down TO make a
root or roots. These are then forkv or
twisted and give the wretched roots we
see. The proper way Is TO make holes
with dibDle, postspade or crowbar so
AS TO let the small pieces which are to
make plants 20 down foot or more.
Then I'LL In the holes and walt. The
result Is thas In couple OF months
sprOut Will start upwards TO the sur
face, and this sprout I'm time becomes
the straight, clean root we have spoken
about. The second season after plant
ing they Will be IN marketable condi-
ton, and should be all taken up and
marketed that season and q new plan
tatiol made i'm like manner on the same
ground. From the pieces let I'm the
ground by the digging of the old roots
many Will come up, and these are gem
orally relied on TO form the succeeding
crops but these sprouts should be hoed
oil as they come and be regarded as
nothing but weeds, which everything
that comes up where IL is not wanted is.
In setting out the rows must be made
about eighteen or twenty inches apart,
ana the pieces 10 form roots be planted
about four or six inches apart. The
distance, however, between the row is
to be regulated by the method of Gull
ture. Where the pillow Is used to clear
up between the rows they must be
wider than when grown as a garden
crop. The richness of the ground will
also regulate the distance to put the sets
apart. II these simple hints are
followed, one need never be without
good relish for fish, roast beef, or any
OF the multitudinOus dishes where n
little pugency Is not TO be desplsad.
But how few persons follow them.
and indeed how few have even horse
radish enough to supply family needsP
In trucking, however, 1t can be raised
with other things for the market,
and as we say above, will be found as
profitable as anything they can take to
market, when the amount OF labor and
profit ia reckoned.

FLAMING PoTAToEs.-Nearly every
rule which has been commonly laid
down needs some modification accord
ing TO circumstances, and different ex-
perlnenters often come to partial or
connecting conclusions as external In
nnences may have varied. For exam
pie, in the use of large and small seed
ana OF cut and uncut potatoes. the
widest difference may result from con.
trolling causes. In nearly all condi-
tons IL is better to cut the tubers. and
thus obtain fewer stalks in the hill than
by whole planting. But if the plant-
ing be done late, and the soil happens
10 De unusually dry In the time of a
drouth, cut potato may drv IN and
lall TO grow, at time when the i'm
perVious skin of a whole one will nre-
vent willing, and sufficient moisture
ana nourishment be afforded from IL TO
START good growth. The continual
RUE may therefore be laid down. to
pIaht whole potatoes only in dry soil
OF IN Time or dry weather, which ali
goOu FARMERS viii know how to avoid
For similar results from small or large
seeds vary much with circumstance
Very small cut potatoes sboulJ be enn.
ployed only when the soil is In fine
moist condition, and early I'm tbo
spring. With these favorable chances
we nave obtained as large potatoes from
cut seed of tubers as large as robins
egg as from those weighing a quarter
a quarter OF pound, and with a slight
~ small product per acre. The small
sets were kept moist by fine soil
when surrounded them till they had
sent mp strong shoots. But as these
favorable conditions are not likely 10
occur very often, It is always safer TO
employ seed of fair size, and 10 miami
Geep enough TO escape surface driving.
In view of these general principles 1t
WIZ be seen that there is little advan-
tsEe IN tue frequent practice of cutting
10 few eyes and DROPPING two nieces
In hill. These would be more likely
70 dry up in a soil not quite moist
enough, than if the same number of
eyes were allowed 10 remain on a sin
gle piece. These remarks are made
from many trials under the VARYING
conditions mentioned above.
