THE _HUNTINGDON GLOBE, A DEMOCRATIC FAMILY JOURNAL, DEVOTED TO LOCAL AND GENERAL NEWS, &C. tgr 11Farntcr. The Potato Culture Again.---Important Information. We make the following extracts from an important communication which we find in the last number of the Country Gentleman, from a leading farmer in New-Jersey, on a system of potato culture. We need only say that it meets entirely our own views on the suject, long entertained, and more than once alluded to in the Thlegraph. We have no doubt that Mr. Ilowatt is correct. This ar ticle was written , last autumn, as is evident from its wording—another and the first, on the same subject, having been written a year before. We hope it may be iu time for a tri al the present year.—Ed. Germantown Tele graph. x - I am glad that .1 have been the means of introducing a good system into practice, which will yet be the rule and not the exception. It is an economical as well as a better system which will be more gener ally admitted when tried. * *I have been asked ' why' I adopted the one-eye sys tem. I had at one time a field of early pota toes, when at the latter end of May we had a very severe frost, at which time my potato stems were four and five inches high. The sets were cut three eyes to each ; the frost cut them completely off; I then concluded to sow with turnips. In ten days afterwards one stem appeared to each set, and quite reg ularly in the drills ; I then determined to let them remain and see the result, and I found them when digging, to be the best crop had ever raised. This was conclusive evi dence to me that one eye was better than three ; and the potatoes were of much evener size than any I have ever grown. Since then I have grown altogether on the one-eye sysetm on all soils. I have taken premiums on my potatoes at other Socities than ours.— It has been said that our laud is suited to the potato, and so my fine crops. Such is not the case. Ours is not a potato soil, and as to a fine crop, I do not consider it such. I have seen land in this and other States, on which I could double it. I shall not be sur prised to hear of seine cif your readers turn ing out next fall four hundred bushels of " Prince Albert potatoes" to the acre, on the one-system ; but then if they wish this, they must make up their minds whether they in tend grownig weeds or patotoes. To grow potatoes well, you must not let a weed be seen. Keep your ground stirred; ' harrow, plow cultivate until they come into ploom ; then use no tools among them. If you keep them properly cultivated up to that time, they will not require hand weeding when in this stage; if you do not this, you need not expect a paying crop. This is also an. im portant point, as at this stage the lurbers set, and by working them you deteriorate their growth materially. I cut the potato a month before planting, and mix with hot lime to dry up the cuts, which it will do, and shrivel them complete ly up, (a good sign.) When planted, they immediately start to grow, and you will see your eye bursting a nice blue top. The set being completely dry, there is no danger of their rotting in the ground ; whereas if put in the ground as soon as cut, they lay dor mant until this cut heals, and if wet weather, they are liable to rot. Another reason : Be fore planting you see your eyes bursting, and you need plant only such as are good. You will then have no vacancies in your drills.-- By cutting so far ahead, you set them earli er, as the moment you cut them is like plant ing them; they commence growing the mo meat you mix them with lime ; whereas if planted at that time, the ground being cold and wet, they would be likely to rot. When you have them cut, you need not care being a week behind or before in planting. One thing must be observed when they are cut, that is, they must not be put into a dark hot cellar. Place them where they will have plenty of light, and if there is any danger of frost at night, cover them over, (removing in day time...) If placed in a cellar, they com mence to burst their eyes, and not having light, they will be white and spindly, com pletely drawn and good for nothing. By be ing in a garret or some such place, they burst strong. Let it not be supposed that if the eye should be broken off that the set is lost. If kept dry it %Neill immediately throw out another sprout. Let any that may be skep tical on this point cut and prepare as above, and cut and plant the same day, as is the common practice, and note the result. Pal c tice is better than theory. To cut a potato to advantage, requires a little practice. I here give directions how to do it, which by following you Will soon be an adept. Hold your potato in your left hand ; cut the root end completely off as the eye by the root should never be planted; it only produces small and watery potatoes. Your next eye cut something like a half moon ob serving not to cut through another eye; then turn your potato, and your next eye will be angular, your next half moon, your next an gular, and so on. Then the top of your po tato (where there is a cluster of eyes,) will in general be flat, when properly cut ; those you cut in single eyes, and you should he careful and keep all of those seperate from your other cuts, as those should be planted by themeselves, as they will ripen their tu bers from a week to a fortnight earlier than the rest. I always have two sets of hands to cut them—one to cut off the tops and throw them by themselves, and the other to cut from that tv the root cud, reserving the lop to be cut carefully for early use. This, to any one who requires early potatoes, will be an advantage. I have grown most of the potatoes at pres ent in cultivation, and I said in my article last year that the Prince Albert potato was our best. It is suited to all our soils, and all say it does not rot. * •" ••* As to flat culture and high earthing, both are best. It will be seen by my last year's article, that I grew them on a level surface without any earthing. This year I grew them in drills, well earthed up. If the advocates - both system were to state how their land lay, slat or sidehill, heavy or light loam, then we we could judge for ourselves, as to which sys tem would be best suited to-our individual - soil; for instance, if I intended growing pota toes on a low flat piece of land, not under drained, and where the rains would lay, I should grow them in drills according to my last year's practice, (high drills ;) if I grew on side-hill, or on ground that I was sure the the water would not lay on, I should grow them on the flat system, which, when appli cable, I prefer. The quality of the soil you intend to grow on, must also be a guide to you as to the system you should adopt. If a heavy loam, I should adopt the high drill sys tem, as by it you pulverize the soil and make it mellow. A good crop can be got off soil of this description by the high drill system, whereas if the fiat system were adopted on this heavy soil, you would not succeed in get ting a fourth of a crop. If your soil is light, adopt the flat system ; if you undertake the high drill system on light soil, our heavy rains will wash it down, and our tropical sun will burn your roots, and you have no crop, where, if you had grown on the flat system, you would have had a full crop.— Use the roller freely on a light soil to com press it tightly, and on a heavy soil use your heavy and light harrows freely. Men, apopting a system from a written article, should fully understandthat the same prac tice is applicable to their soil, and that a system which would be best for one field, should be reversed on another, thus adapt ing the system to the condition of the field. Out of this one thing paoceeds most of the difference of opinion as to which is best of the different systems. As to potato culture, f the one-eye system is applicable to light and heavy soiIs.—GERALD HOWATT, Neintort, Vete Jersey. -UNRIVALLED ATTRACTIONS !- EMERSON'S MAGAZINE AND PUTNAM'S MONTHLY, TWO GREAT MAGAZINES IN ON E ': NINETY THOUSAND COPIES THE FIRST MONTH:!!

For power, bril liancy and richness of tone, elasticity of touch, and beauty of finish, they will not suffer in comparison with those of any other mamtfacturer."—T homas Baker. The "State Register - contains the following: "l'or beauty of finish, sweetness and brilliancy of tone, they undoubtedly surpass anything of the kind ever brought before the public. They equal in tone the grand guano; and being constructed of the best and most thoroughly seasoned material, they arc capable of resisting the action of any climate." Says the "Evening Mirror": They (the Horace Waters' Pianos) are very superior instruments and the maker may confidently challenge comparison with any other manutlicturer in the country, as regards their outward elegance, and quality of tone and power." lIItUNKEIt is agent for the sale of these Pianos. for Huntingdon county. lie will attend to the unpacking and putting up of them, and keeping them in tune, for a year, free of charge.
