stack, knocking down the front for
hilling and taking up. | take off about
two behind to get dirt to hill or throw
out in taking up paintings. Well, let's
go back to the field. Now l use a one
horse wagon with body on. | don't
put them in like they are rocks or
corn 1 set them in with care not to
bruise and go to the hill and pour
them out as carefully as | can. Now
in this way | have handled my pOta-
toes as few times as it can well be
done.
Dig after first frost. a fair day, and
let dry good.
As to marketing potatoes, well, I'm
not a big farmer and | know there are
others that can write more interest
ingIy how TO cultivate than | can. but
if this does not go TO the waste basket
| may try to say something later about
cultivating them.
| sold few potatoes last year that
| kept up with-126 bushels. Hhey
brought me 500. l got them off
about an acre; fed the small ones to
my hogs l sold this year 1OS bushels
for SS5.

the sack. then have no trouble any
more to measure them where my
customer wants a buShel

Now reader, if you try next year to
raise potatoes. don't try to plant your
whole crop of potatoes and make a
failure like the man | saw mentioned
in The Progressive Farmer some years
ago did, and say your land won't make
them.

Heifer VS.. Steer Beef.

\ correspondent of the Southern
Planter makes the following compari-
son between the two kinds of beef.
| read with much interest the ar
ticleS from your correspondents, and,
i'm fact everything from cover to cover
of your most helpful paper, and was
especially interested in Prof. A. NJ.
SOule'S article in the March number
on Feeding Investigate at the Vir-
ginia Experiment Station, and think.
as he does. that this work should have
the support of every farmer in Vir-
ginia.
In regard to the part, ''Steer VS..
Heifer Beef" would say that the only
reason that the steer has the prefer
ence in this section is, as in many
other things. the buyers have found
tney can put up this talk. making the
seller believe it. thereby obtaining the
best for the least money. 1t has been
my privilege and pleasure to eat
steak at Billy BOyles, in Chicago,
and other places of like fame i'm this
particular, where they claim they have
been OH ice for from six weeks to six
months. but | never knew what good
steak was until spending a season
with Miller q Lux Company, of Mex
leo, Texas, California, Idaho, Oregon,
and. in fact, everywhere, as it is said
they turn off more beef than any
other concern during a season. While
with this company | made a drive of
f25 miles, in company with thirteen
other cowboys. We started with LOCO
head. and whenever the meat got low
in our cook wagon the boss would tell
lis to kill something, and | noticed
that every time the boys picked a two
or three-year-Old heifer, after eating
which l knew well enough why they
did it, and know. too, that if a buyer
should go to Miller Lux or any other
large cattle raiser in the West and
tell them the heifers were not as good
beef as the steer, they would be told
to go back to the States and learn
| their A. b. C.'s in beefOlOgy. They
are nearly all brought TO perfect
condition on the range in the West
but if so on the range, why can't
| they be made equally as good as the
steer by stall feeding?

Handling Sweet Potatoes.

Probably native Florida farmer
would feel insulted if we were to in
sinuate that he needed any instruction
about the harvesting and caring for
his crop of sweet pOta toes. Yet there
is no doubt many of our readers who
; their own knowledge and skill and
who will welcome some information
as to the best methods from an expert,
as given by a writer in the Progress
sive Farmer:
Some months ago 1 said l would
give my plan to keep sweet potatoes.
As it is now about time to dig them,
it may do some one a good deed.
l take a turn plow and drag off the
vines, barring them off shallow, at the
same time plOwing them up with the
same plOw, going deep enough not to
cut them. In this way it throws them
out, so they can be found without
much trouble Put three rows to-
gether. being careful not to pitch them
so far as to bruise them against one
another. Then | take small sacks
(cOrn or meal feed sacks,) and go over
the rows and pick up the large ones,
two hands to the sack. In this way
they will not be bruised, the sack not
being too full.
Then go back and take up the plant
ings in the same way filling the sacks
full as can be handled. They, being
small, will not bruise like the large
ones. Let the sacks be small and
slaZy just so they will hold to place in
the hill, these being the sOrrieSt ones
with no kainit or salt about them
though l have used kainit sacks where
they had been washed by rains or
hand. Then form the hill around the
sacks that | set i'm the middle with
loose potatoes and on top. This shapes
up my hill. The sacks give ventilation.
l hill on high, elevated land, if
can, where it is deep sand, putting
straw about two inches deep, dirt
about the same, leaving place on top
about as large as my hat with no dirt
Have the straw about four inches
thick right on the top; then make a
hole with my hand through to the pO-
tatOes and leave them so all winter
can go along every day and run my
hand in and see if my potatoes are
sound or not.
Then l go to work and build a
shelter over them to keep the dirt dry.
| built my shelter some years ago and
have used it ever since By this plan
you see 1 keep my place dry year in
and year out. In spring, remove all
rotten ones so as not to infest the land
with the rot. Ny shelter is ten feet
wide, thirty-twO feet long, four feet
high behind and seven in front, front

north end, edge to edge front and
