GARDEN LESSON NO. Is.

GARDEN LESSON NO. 9s.
The two tuber crops are potatoes and
sweet potatoes. The former grows
better In cooler climates, while the
latter thriyes best with plenty OF hot
sun -H -..
Both do well In sandy loam soil,
out the Irish potato will get along
better In heavier soils than the sweet
potato.
Both may be planted early, but In
Northern States the sweet potato must
be started in hotbeds. and transplant
er: The sweet potato requires more
room as its vines travel long distances.
The soil must be pulverized to a
depth Of several inches. the finer this
is done the easier for the tubers to
attain full size. Ciods, foreign sub
stances and heavy soil win distort the
potatoes shape.
Potatoes may be grown from whole
tuoers, parts and even peelings. The
whole tuber may produce too many
sprouts, as each eye win produce one
sprout. Feelings will do moderately
we'll II thick. especially at the eye.
The Washington herald., 1918-04-07

But the season must be just right,
neither too warm, nor too cold; nor
too wet or dry. There isn't much
plant food in peeling for the sprout
to live on; any delay In growth will
make weakling plant.
The best plan is to cut a potato into
parts. each about the size of q small
hen egg, with two or three eyes in
each piece. ~. %
These should be dropped In holes
two to three feet apart. about four
inches deep.
Sweet potatoes are easily killed by
light frosts, and must not be planted
outdoors until all danger Of frost is
over, and then may be protected on
cool nights by canvas covers.
Sweet potato tubers are planted
whole in, the hotbed. and cuttings
made from it. Each slip should be
10 to u inches long. These "slips' are
buried in the garden soil, leaves except
at end removed. Later paintings NAV
be made from slip taken off ends of
plants growing in the garden. These
slips" are treated the same way.
