"AMALGAMATION OF POTATOES " There is an article under the above cap tion in the "Journal" for this month, in which yoa seem to endorse the statement, or rather, the views of a certain Scotch farmer, in regard to what he is passed to term "breeding" of Potatoes -in and in," as being the cause of tirgenrra;inn, <kc.. Ac. It seems to me strange that vou and * —' * he should confour.J two processes of na ture so entirely distinct, as propagating a plant by cuttings and "breeding." the latter term having only reference to rrprodurtion bv seed. Facts are stubborn things, and I would not wish for one moment to call in ques tion the s'atemcnt of facts of any ene; in regard to results which he may have ob tained by auy particular mode or process planting or culture, but I must enter my protest against the conclusions which he arrives at, or the theory which he founds thereupon, that the degeneration of pota toes has been caused by what he calis • breeding" too closely, and that simply planhng two or more kinds in the same hill, will cross the breed , as well might we expect two horses of different character or color to assimilate, or two cows to give the same quantity and quality of milk, by being fed in contiguous stalls. I presume there are few who will not admit that the breeding in and in, i, e., continually between parent and offspring, will canse degeneration either in animal or plant, hut in propogatmg from cuttings, either-above ground or below, cither from the stock as in grafting or budding fruit trees, or from tlie root as in planting pota toes, there is no production of offspring, but simply a continuation or re growth of the old plant: therefore, wh .'.ever benefi cial ellec: Mr. Craig may have produced i-r discovered by planting different varie t. -s together, it cannot, m the nature of tilings, be referred to any of the phenom ena of breeding, and 1 think that aev prac t.cal m3n will be quite willing to see before he believes , that the result name! was any thing more than the effect of season or some accidental circumstance. i'hal all plants wiil degenerate after a long continuance of propagation by divis ion, no one will deny, as we have too many instances in proof; many varieties of fruits, for instance, having become neariv or quite extinct, or at best, worthless—and the article under discussion, potatoes, must be expected to obey the same law as they have already done in som- instances. Va rieties which were considered the best a few years back, have rapid.y gone the wav ol perishable things. Now it does appear to me the plainest and simplest thing in nature, that the proper way to keep Bp the character of the most important esculent ever grown, and ilie on y way it can be be done, is to reproduce continually and frequently from seed , from actual seed, not from what we are in the habit of calling, by courtesy, "seed potatoes." By this means, each one who does it may obtain an ariicie suited to his soil, and by repeated trials, something even better than we have ever yet had, may be produced. Very respectfully, J. C.
