A tempting way to serve potatoes at this
time of the wear is TO boil them with plenty
of salt in the water, then when tender turn
all The water Of, let the kettle stand on the
top Of the stove till the potatoes ARE dry,
miIsh them until they are frt g from lump,
add q little sweet milk or cream, butter
pepper and salt if this is needed, then put
the potato in the dish in which it if to be
served and Sc. il in the oven to brown over
the top. II your potatoes arc not very
sweet this is an especially good way to cook
them.
There will come s.time before many
weeks when eggs will not be plenty and
will be dear; it IS good to be able to make
cake without them. Take one cup OF sour

Cultivation of Potatoes.

Peachblow and Peerless require full time
in which to grow. If manure is used it
will be found an advantage to heavily
broadcast the locution after p1owtng and
then work it in we'll with a harrow. Such
manure must be thoroughly rotted. It is
not only useless and wasteful to use fresh
manure ON potatoes, but detrimental, US it
often causes rot ard detracts from the
keeping Qualities. No potato has been ins
troduced as yet that compare with the
Peacbblow Ia keepi0g qualities, but it has
the obi lection of growing all vine until just
previous to forming tubers, and this it
seems to do very suddenly. It's not easy
to judge of sthe prospective crop by the
growth of the vine on this variety. In all
other respects il is incomparabie.
On light sandy soils the Magnum Bonum
is best adapted, as it will often pro uce on
soils that grow no other kind.
Chemical fertilizers are better for pota-
toes than stable manure, owing to the in
jury to the tubers by the latter, and the
principal ingredient of such fertilizers is
potash. For an acre of potatoes enough
should be used to not only make up what
would be taken from the soil by the crop,
but also sufficient to produce more than
| usual. One thousand pounds of tbs ashes
Of potatoes contain about 500 pounds of
potash and little over 10 pounds of
phosphoric acid. OF course, it takes y
| greaB amount of potatoes to get 900
| pounds of ashes, but it teat hes US to feed
our crops with that which will give the
| best results instead ofapplying manu- at
hazard. The tops are TO be supplied also,
and lime here comes into use. Without
intending to give q complete formula of
chemicals, the following would be fair
proportion of each: Muriate of potash,
$50 pounds; plaster, 200 pounds; super
! phosphate, 100 pounds; nitrate of soda, 70
pounds This would cost about $40, aud
would not only repay its original cost but
would Increase the number and size Of the
tubers. Apply broadcast and lightly har-
row it. 1t is best, however, for farmers to
experiment with a small pa CHI before try
iHg the chemicals extensively, as soils diff
| fer, and too much is a waste. Instead Of
F.! c. emicais, if preferred, use wood ashes
and plaster mixed, to which should be
added Il bag of superpho- phate to the acre.
| Use all the ashes possible, as there will he
no danger of applying too much. On sandy
dry soils mulch arrund the vine is bene-
fetal for il will not only retain moisture,
hut assist in keeping down the grass and
weeds. A little guanO il sometimes used
o. potatoes, but this vegetable doe, not
need i to very great extent. TIE potash
| in the wood ashes is in caustic STATE, and
| they should not be mixed with any Kind
Of msterial thai is rich in ammonia. Us they
| liberate it.
