Sweet Potatoes.
Editor Florida AgricuIturist::

Editor Florida A AgTiculturist:
With twelve years experience in Flor
ida, find that most farmers dig their
sweet potatoes too soon. Leave them
until the vines are killed to the roots by
frost, then take a sharp hoe and cut
them close to the root Do this as soon
as frost comes, then if let alone for few
weeks, they will fill out and ripen, being
much better, also keeping better. Handle
carefully; do not bruise. House or bank
same day as dug.
To lie on fresh ground where dug,
through cold night, greatly impairs
their eating and keeping qualities. Vines,
if not too much frosted, are good food
for stock. Shakesand off we'll; form into
small fork-fulls in patch; haul Off and
store in sheds This season made fine
potatoes on old ground by scattering
rotten stable manure lightly over pea
vines, (after first peas were picked) turn
ing all in level and planting on level. Run
through twice with cultivator Vines
are yet green and growing. Potatoes
are large, smooth and of excellent quail
ity. / expect to dig about first of Jan
uary, then plant ground at once to Irish
potatoes. A. CALLAHAN.

committee was instructed to add it to the
list already prepared.
1t Was decided that the contest for pre-
miums in the citrus fruit display should
not be confined to members of the Society,
but should be open to all, but that en-
tries must be made under the rules and
regulations promulgated by the commit
tee.
On motion OF Mr.. Adams it was decided
that all exhibits of fruit should become
the property of the Society, and would be
Uufn0u over W the EApOSlClOH COnpdHy
after awards had been made.
The Committee of Judges appointed,
was as follows:
Messrs. E. S. Hubbard, A. H. Manville,
E. H. Hart, and A. L. Duncan, with Mr..
Hart as secretary.
On motion the time for holding the reg
uIar meeting was changed from March to
the first Wednesday in May, and to con-
tinue for three days.
