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.

plate engraving ever executed in this country, being three
times the size of the ordinary three-dollar engravings.

TIIE NEW YORK STEAM SAW - -
NUJ, AND MACHINE COMPANY,
TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY THOUSAND
DOLLARS.
This company Las been organized with the above capital
for tlia purpose or supplying the demand far the
COMBINATION PORTABLE STEAM SAW-MILL,
and other improved machinery.
They have purchased the entire machinery business here
tofore carried on by J. M. Emerson & Co., also the Mont
gomery. at Yonkers, on the Hudson, near this city,
and with the experience and thcilities combined in its or
ganization are prepared to furnish machinery of all kinds
at more liberal rates, than has ever been offered at any
other establishment.
The Combination :Saw-Mill was patented October, 1855.
and is now generally acknowledged to be the cheapest, and
most practical, and efficient lumber manufacturing ma
chine in the world. A number of them are in successful
operation in different sections of the country, Canada,
Cuba, and :South America., and wherever their merits have
been tested they are being adopted by lumber manufactu
rers in preference to all other mills.
The tbilowing letter expresses the general opinion. of
those Mho are using the Combination llill :
MESSRS. EltlEltz.ON & Co.—Gentlemen : I have tried the
saw-mill purchased of you, and will say that it performs
well, and more than meets my expectations. I am well
pleased with its performance. I set it up on a small stream
that afforded constant water about as thick as my little
tanner. which was much more than sufficient to supply the
boiler. We are able to cut 3,000 feet of beautiful lumber
in 12 hours, with something less than one cord itf wood.—
It is the very thing we have so much needed infour county
for a long time. With a little trouble and expense. we are
alde to move it front live to ten miles per day, and set it up
in the heart of the timber, which saves the great burden
of hauling the logs a long distance to the mill.
Yours respectfully, Jesse limns Jr..

The company has purchased Lund's Patent Feed Ar
rangement, which is illustrated and described in the Scien
tific Amerecan far October 24. This adds greatly to the
efilcitnlcy of the mill.

the base is deep, rolling, and sonorous: the, ntiddlepart is
rich, and byunpathetic, and possessing the power of sing
fag,i. c. of uniting the sound of each tone, in a degree but
rarely achieved."—Henry Wirtson.
For power of tone, depthof brass,and brilliancy of tre
ble, together with accuracy of touch, they are equal to any
make I ant acquainted with, and I cordially recommend
them to those wishing to purchase.—V. C. Taylor.
`•Our fliends will find at Mr. Waters' storks the very
best asortmcnt of music and of pianos to be found in the
United States, and we urge our southern and western
friends to give him a call whenever they go to New York:'
—Graham's Magazine.
•• We consider them worthy of special attention, from the
resonant and exceedingly musical tune which Mr: Waters
lets succeeded in attaining. - -.N. Y. Musical llbrid and
Times.
"There is one which, for beauty of finish and richness
and brilliancy of tone, equals, if it does not excel, any
thing of the kind we have even seen. It is from the estab
lishment of llorace Waters. Being constructed of the best
and most thoroughly seasoned material, and upon im
proved principles, it is capable of resisting the action of
the climate. and of standing a long time in tune.—Suran
nee Republican, Savannah, Chi."
Waters' pianos and melodeons challenge comparison
with the finest made anywhere in the country. - -Home
Journal.
C. L. Singes. editor of the Kenosha "Tribune and Tele
graph" says, .• The piano was received in good order, and
is pronounced an excellent instrument by good judges,
the tone of it is particularly commended. as is indeed its
external workmanship and finish, compared with its cost.''
Speaking of the Horace Waters' Pianos and Melodeons
at the Crystal Palace the "New York Disptach" says:—
" A number of these pianos and pedal bass organ melode
ons, from their great power, and fullness and richness of
tone, attract the very general attention and commenda
tion of visitors. Waters' " New Scale" is recognized by
artists as not only a sensible but important improvement
in pianos."
The "New York Expl'ess" says: " Tin Horace Waters
Pianos are pronounced by musical amateurs as a deci.ledly
superior article in all the requisites of this instrument,
and it is fast superseding those of other manufacturers."
The New York Evening Post" says: "The Horace
Waters' Pianos arc excellent as well as cheap; but he has
those of other• makers, as well as second-hand ones, capi
tally adapted to limited means."
says the •• Knox ills (Tenn.) :Amami :" "Mr. Waters
has long experience in the business. and has gained a 'vim
talion unsurpassed fur selling the best instruments in the
country."
The ••• Sunny South" reaches us with the following :
" This gentleman is one of the most extensive music-deal
ers in the Union. llis pianos and. melodeons have ob
tained great celebrity for their excellent time and cttu•able
crudity.'
Says the "Valley City Advocate:" •' We have taken a
look at a piano which has just arrived from the celebrated
establishment of Horace Waters, and must say that for
tone and beauty of finish, it surpasses any we over saw
for the price."
Horace Waters' Piano-Fortes are of fiat, rich, and even
tone, and powerful. —New Ibrl• Musical Itericie.
They arc fully equal . to any of the kind I have seen in
the United States, and far superior to those of a similar
make I saw in England. - -Uco. yindtbnetrne Morgan.
"I take great pleasure in announcing them instruments
of a superior quality, both in tone and touch."—August
tiuchel.
We don't know that we ever saw better pianos—pianos
better made, of finer tone and of greater power—than we
met with yesterday at the fair in the Crystal Palace. The
finest among thee► are those placed there by Horace Wa
ters, whose pianos are always popular."—Times
S.C7l[Mr.
"The Horace Waters' Pianos now on exhibition at the
Fair, have attracted a surprising degree of attention
they are unrivalled by any other instrument, in perfcel
gnat/4 of tone and power."---o,nrier.
The Horace Waters' Pianos are among the most cele
brated and improved makes of the day. 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."
