Rotating Wheat and Potatoes.

There have been all sorts of results
with wheat following potatoes, and
such results have largely followed
closely in accordance with the fertil-
iZers used. Naturally, as wheat does
best on a soil which has been well
worked and prepared, following the
potato crop with wheat offers every
chance for good crop of the cereal,
but always provided the proper fer
tiliZers are applied and in considerable
quantity, for it must be remembered
that the potato crop has not left much
Of the applied fertilizer for any fol-
lowing crop, and second, that the ac-
ton Of the fertilizer will necessarily
be slower during the season in which
the wheat gets its start. In following
potatoes with wheat try this plan.
Rake off the potato tops, and with the
harrow level the. soil and loosen it to
the depth of two or three inches; then
roll the ground and drill in the seed
with 200 pounds to the acre OF some
commercial fertilizer rich i'll phos-
phoric acid. The potato tops may be
spread over the seed bed as a mulch,
and will materially help the wheat.
Rather a radical way of doing this
work, perhaps, but it has paid well
with many farmers, hence is worth a
trial

On the other side, Parker must carry

Indiana or their equivalent. lie must
carry both the East and the West Ii
he should carry New York, New Jersey,

he should lose all these and carry Lii

to suit the debatable States, and while
the Republicans have slightly the best of

In assigning the different States to the
different columns, the experience or pre-

guide. Only where State has been
overwhelmingly and persistently Demo
cratic or Republican has it been assigned
arbitrarily to either column.

American means plentiful prosperity for
