apart, in hills Is inches apart ano
two pieces to the hill. They should
be in the ground just as soon as the
ground is dry enough to work In the
spring. Cover two or three inches
deep and a spring freeze will not hurt
them. Be very careful not to pillow or
iig near the plant after it gets up six

The plant. Don't plant scaoby seed
1or good seed on ground where scabby
potatoes grew the year before.
