POMME DE TERRE (Fr.), KarTOFFEIv fGer.) Early Rose. Breeze's Peerless. Extra Early Vermont. Beauty of Hebron. White Elephant. Rural Blush. Rural New Yorker No. 2. I Bliss Early Triumph or Improved Bermuda. Early Ohio. The above varieties were tried on the grounds of the Louisiana Experiment Station at Calhoun, L,a., and Audubon Park, New Orleans, among T50 different kinds tested they gave about the best results, both in yield and quality. Potatoes thrive and produce best in a light, dry but rich soil. Well decomposed stable manure is the best, but if not to be had, cotton seed meal, bone dust, or any other fertil- izer should be used to make the ground rich enough. If the ground was planted the fall previous with Cow Peas, which were plowed under, it will be in good condhion for pota- toes. Good sized tubers should be selected for planting, which can be cut in pieces not too small, each piece ought to contain at least three eyes. Plant in drills from two to three feet apart, according to the space and how to be cultivated afterwards. Field cui-.
