There IL probably no crop LARGELY
. grown that yields a better profit than
the potato crop. Yet the per acre yield
throughout the country Is small. due
very largely to poor methods In han
oling the soil. The potato accommo-
oates Itself TO many varieties OF soil
ana to all kinds OF culture. Perhaps
THIS TACT is taken advantage OF to too
great an extent and not enough care
USED In any part Of the process OF pro-
duclng the crop. When we consider
that more than 1000 bushels OF pota-
toes have been raised on an acre In diff.
lerent parts Of the country, and that
less than 100 bushels Is the ordinary
Yield. we are forced to believe that we
are not using all OF our possible ad-
yantages.
The hrst requisite "a well-prepared
land. drained II II so requires. This
good preparation means blowing deep
enough to admit OF the fullest growth
Of root. Whatever may be said against
deep blowing yet II certainly has a
tendency to send the roots down be-
yond the summer drouth, which is
often a thing OF great importance The
writer remembers little corner In a
potato patch In which coal ashes had
been thrown. The ground thus In
creased In depth gave moisture to the
plants when la all other parts OF the
patch they were dying for lack OF
moisture. The probable reason was
That In that part the soil was so porous
that the roots had been able to strike
deep and to reach into a stratum OF
continuous moisture. This Ia not to
advocate the use OF coal ashes as a fer
tiliEer for potatoes. but to illustrate
the principle by which a loose soil
permits the penetration OF roots.
AS to killing there Is great diversity
OF opinion. We know that It Is be-
coming quite popular to advocate the
doing away OF the old style OF hill
Ing and to say that the Idea OF hill
Ing was barbarous one. originating
among the boys OF ireland. The whole
settlement OF the question must de-
pend on circumstances. Some varieties
have to DO hllled anyway, unless we
expect to have some OF the potatoes on
top OF the ground. The question OF
moisture runs into that OF killing. A
certain man some years ago abandoned
the killing process and planted all OF
his potatoes on the level. II happened
to be an exceptionally wet summer and
the entire crop was damaged by lying
too much in the water. Killing would
have done some good In this case.
