be prepared by hand, it is good prac-
tice to pulverize the soil as much as
possible when spading it up, after
which il can be put in a fine condition

rake. The Importance of thoroughly
filming the soil cannot be overempha-
sized, for it increases the water
holding capacity of the soil, renders
more plant food available, and reduces
the number of weeds.
When 20 Plant Potatoes.
The date of planting necessarily
must be governed by climatic condi-
tons. In attempting to produce as
early a crop as possible, some risk
must always be incurred of the plants
being injured by late spring frosts.
AS a general proposition, it is best to
plant potatoes as soon as there is lit
tie likelihood Of killing frosts after
the plants are up and the ground is in
condition to work.
Depth to Plant.
Plant the small eye cuttings from
IL to 3 inches deep, depending upon
the character of the soil-the lighter
the soil the greater the depth of plant
ing. Larger SETS may be planted 4
inches deep.
Spacing.
If an early variety is planted. and
the work is to be done by hand. the
rows may he spaced as close as %
inches, whereas if cultivation is to be
done with a horse, 80 to 81 inches
usually is allowed. In order to give
