■^tjukiilluiiaL POTATOES. The potato ia one of the most impor tant of cultivated plants, and is in uni versal cultivation In this country and the temperate parts of the globe. It is a native of America, and is found grow ing wild in Mexico, Uhili and Peru, but it is difficult to decide where it is ihdi • genous, and where it, has spread after being introduced by man. The wild potato differs very little from the one cultivated. The latter has been plant ed and used for food in America long anterior to its discovery. No food plant Is more invaluable for human and animal food, for various purposes in the arts, and it is only sur passed by wheat and corn in its nour ishment. It grows in tropical countries, and struggles for An existence in gar 'densj oven within the Arctic circles yielding small, watery tubers. Yet the effects of late springs, or early autum nal frosts upon its foliage, olten proves that it is a.plant belonging to a milder climate. The cultivation of the potato lias exercised a beneficial influence on tho welfare of our people, increased our national wealth, and owing to tho fact that however productive it may yield for a time in any.section of country,yet it finally fails. It inis shown that tho exclusive, or almost exclusive, depend ence of a people on one source or means of support is in direct \ filiation of the laws of nature. There are so many different varieties grown, that it.is almost impossible to give any ('numeration or classification of them. New ones are constantly ap pearing, and old ones are passing away. Those most advantageously cultivated in particular soils or climates arc often .found to degenerate in a few years, and * especially if taken from one part of the country to another, as they will not cli ' matizv* 'the newest and latest speci mens brought before the public are those sent out by the great practical ex perimenter, 13r. Goodrich, clec’d., of Utica, N. Y.,and by Dr. Ilotfer-n, of the same place, Dr. Goodrich’s successor.— A change the varieties is also created by crossing the wild and other potatoes and some of them are sent out as the Early Goodrich, Calico, Gleason,.Cusco, Garnet Chili; Pink Eye, Rnsty-coat, and many others, all proving very produc tive, hut not one has yet gained the standard of a No. one edible. Neither arc any of the above as good as a Main Castor or Mercer for table use unless the Harrison or Early Rose shall carry off the prize. The early Rose comes with dying colors, at three dollars per pound, and is said by those recommending it, that it has readied perfection as a table potato. The Early Rossis a seedling of the Garnet Chili, originated in IS(U, by Albert Breese, Esq., of Vermont, and ; Dr. Modern says it is the best early po tato that ho has yet grown. The skin is thin, tough and of a dull bluish color; the potato is flesh white, solid and brit tle, noils through quickly, and is very mealy. The Harrison is a good, late and productive potato of large size, smooth, flesh while and of a high cook ing quality. The whitc-skined peach blows and neshanock are good edible potatoes. The potato is subject to a number of diseases, the most destructive of which is the 11 potato disease.” Before it be- gan to prevail, the chief affections of the potato were those called curl, scab, dry and wet rot. The principal cause of of these diseases, however they may be combined with other causes, is the*'ex haustion of the vegetable powers of the plant, from frequent propagation by tu bers or cuttings. It must be born in mind that piopagation by cuttings is not reproduction ; hut-one potato is di vided into small parts, and the whole analogy of nature acorns to show that although it may live longer in this way, and more healthfully than if left in the spot where its seed first germinated, its existence will come to an end, and the species must he preserved by reproduc tion. The curl, the first disease thatattaeks flic potato, affects the foliage, and is caused by planting weak sets. Tlie scab is) n disease of the tubers, which become covered with brown, ob long and finally confluent anil cup shaped spots, whilst under the surface is a powdering of minute, olive-yellow (ri-.inc, anl i a fungus called tubereina scabies. no rot is also ascribed to the growth of a fungus of the same order, and at tacks the potatoes when stored lor win ter use. Wet rot ditiers from dry rot, in the potatoesbecomingsoft and rotten instead of hard and dry, and is charac terized by the .presence of a fungus, tu bercina scabies, caused by covering the potato in the ground after becoming ripe—the wet earth and hotafyi causing the brown spots, and with a white fun gus to grow on the potato, which pro duces the rot when the potatoes are stored for winter use. liy mixing lime one part, and ashes three parts, and sprinkling over the potatoes, the Inngns will be destroyed, the moisture in the fungus will be taken up and the rot to a great extent will be prevented. The fanner should bo ready to take up the potato crop ns soon as ripe, and store in a dry, cool place. nocn citoi'N Heorl crops are the most costly in la bor of any which the fanner grows.— Therefore, they should he the most pro fitable. The greatest difficulty' which the farmer in this country has to con tend with, in order to make his busi ness profitable, is the price of labor; and as Jie is obliged to bestow -a great deal on hia hoed crops, he should take care, by judicious management and use of the products to make this outlay of cap ital remunerative. How to ‘do this should he a subject of much thought. Corn and potatoes are the two most largely grown and important of the class of pioduct. One rule which will apply to both, which the wise farmer will act upon, is to obtain as large a yield us possible from each ucreplanted. This will diminish the amount of labor in proportion to tiie product obtained, fc-very bushel will, therefore, cost Jess than when the yield is small. The next important point is to get the best return tor the crop. As corn is the great reliance of the stock feeder in this country, and as much manure from stock is essential to grow' continued large crops, it is obvious that shilful leed.ng to stock is the most remunera tive disposal that can be made of the corn crop. Hence, good breeds, ample shelter,, and proper care, and indispen sable adjuncts. In short, if labor costs too much resolve to plant less ground, but raise more per acre. This can easily be done if you will only set about it.— Hext, determine that your corn shall produce more pound of meal per bushel than heretofore. This you cun accom plish by a timely and judicious selection of improved breeds of stock, and more skill employed in handling them. K„ farmer should he satisfied if he cannot improve every year on Ids past method. Thought and energy applied to vour business will do this. Ihe potato crop is always sold for cash, and this produces no manure for the land For tins reason, it is a very exhausting crop, and no farmer can persist long in growing it largely with mi hid land. On ac count ol their hulk, potatoes cannot ho grown profitably a great Seefrom market. On the right sort of land, and near market, tney usually produce a good return of money per acre: and po tato growers should devote part of the proceeds of the crop towards the pur chasing of manure to renovate the land. Plant less, manure more, and your labor will bring greater profit— Rural New Yorker. txST A gentleman in Jefferson City Missouri, kicked a negro prowler out of his house the other night—ilie rascal as * ,e (lie front door, that lie wasn’t a member of the Legis lature, and didn’t want to steal any thing. * Dtf ffiOOHS, GOODS!!
