CoVlngton Call.
Some OF the farmers of our county
should plant, as soon as it is dry
enough, about twenty. FIVE or thirty
acres, OF Irish potatoes for shipment
North, as We now have the benefit of
through freight to all points. If po-
tatoes aud cotton sell as they did last
year, a farmer would make more ON
twenty-five acres Of potatoes than $50
in cotton. We hope to hear that a
great many will plant potatoes; there
is not the least doubt that they will
make a great deal more money with
much less work, and get it several
months earlier. The farmers around
Nashville aud Memphis shipped and
sold hundreds of thousands OF dollars
worth Of potatoes last year.
