PREPARATION OF THE BED.
Rotation for Sweet Potatoes-FaII
 Flowing Best.

National Crop Improvement Service
 Land that is used in sweet potato growing, should be in rotation with other staple farm crops and as rule the same piece of ground should not be used two years in succession for sweet potatoes.
 A successful Arkansas grower uses the following rotation, with fine re- suits:
 After the crop of potatoes is taken off, hogs are turned in for time to pick up the roots. Land is then plowed and he puts in crop of corn in which q row of cOwpeas is planted during late cultivation. This is followed by winter oats and after the grain is har- vested in the spring, cowpeas are sown broadcast. These are pastured down and followed by sweet potatoes. In case you have no hogs. SOW rye after the potatoes are dug.
 This three-year rotation perhaps could be improved by a pasture or grass crop one year, preferably clover.
 It is best to break the land in fall or winter if possible, leaving it rough until spring and then rebreak. This is not always possible in case winter teaching is apt to occur.
 If the land is broken in the spring keep it well worked until planting time. Treat 1t about the same as corn ground. After blowing the soil should be we'll pulverized and allowed to lie idle few days. On well-drained lands low flat ridges give excellent results but for land where drainage is not so good, higher ridges must be made. Flow several furrows together, then f1atten of the top with light drag or board. This makes a good bed.
