Jtgrifliltutal. Potato Raising- At a moaning of the Farmers' Club in lYiiusylvauia the best method of cultivating potatoes was discussed. The following repert is given by a correspondent of the Germantown Telegraph : "One member stated that he always planted his potatoes in the same field with Lis corn ; the preceding- fall he carefully and deeply ploughed the ground, and in the spring, when dry. enough, he harrowed it thoroughly and deeply with a sharp, harrow drawn by a double team until it was thoroughly torn up to the depth of five inches ; he then furrowed it out ready for planting'. "Another member followed pretty much the same plan, except that in stead of the thorough harrowing he c trefully ploughed the ground with a sharp plough, so set as not to tear up the sod again, but merely pare the loose soil off. He considered that potatoes planted in the sod were more liable to rot than those planted in mellow ground full of decayed and decaying soil, at least such was his experience. "A third member preferred the ground undisturbed until spring,when he would plow it thoroughly, follow ing the plough with a steel subsoil plough, stirring the whole soil to the depth of not less than eighteen inch es, and after a thorough harrowiug, mark out and plant as before. "Another member preferred if pos sible to plough early in the fall and seed down with rye, and not plough again until spring, when he would allow the rye to get as large a growth as possible before ploughing it down. This of course brought out the mem ber who,as stated above, was opposed to decaying vegetable matter in the soil which was to produce the potato crop. This produced a lively discus sion, which seemed to end in a major ity condemning the presence of vege table matter in a decaying state as being likely to induce rot. "These four plaus were all that were advocated in favor of sod for the potato crop, and as each one was offered it produced a lively attack from the stubble side of the question and a lively defence from the four 'soda.' "A majority of members were in favor of planting potatoes in the corn field of the previous year for the fol lowing reasons, viz.: that the ground can be more thoroughly prepared ; that they come into the rotation bet ter for the manure which may he ap plied to them and remain unexpended in the soil, and may benefit the ensu ing wheat crop ; that the crop can he more easily kept clean and the ground be more mellow to work with the hoe-harrow. "Some were in favor of fall plough ing and sub-soili&g and some were -ot; some ploughed in the fall and suLsoiled in tke spring, and others preferred both operations in the spring, and some only ploughed once with the common plough. "One of our most extensive potato growers gave his plan as follows : 1' irst to thoroughly plough the ground in the fall deepl/ and well,then back furrow or ridge it up all over the field by throwing furrows against each other as close as possible, without filling up or throwing the loose soil over the crest into the next furrow. In this condition he allowed it to re main waiting till near planting time, when he could level down the ridges, plough and subsoil, mark out and plant." GRAFTING. —Every farmer should learn to do bis own grafting. It is a very easy operation when once un derstood. A sharp penknife and a good line saw are indispensable.— Splitting the stock so that the bark shall not be bruised—and shaping the scion wedge-fashion both ways, preserving also the bark uninjured— and placing the rim of the wood of both stock and scion exactly togetli er, so that the sap can intermingle— there is no danger of failure if prop erly waxed. We make a shoulder to the graft and think it adds to the cer tainty of success, though probably weakens it. V e prefer also two eyes "i buds to a graft, and would rather have only one than more than two.— One year's wood should always be used when it can be obtained, as it is more certain to take aud grow more vigorously. We wish to remiud those about pre-, paring grafting wax that we have found four parts of rosin, one part of beeswax, and one part of beef tallow, to be the best proportions. Melt them in a skillet (which is the best), or a cup, and mix well. It should remain in the vessel and be used as needed. Twenty or thirty scions can be waxed with one heating-up. When much grafting is to be done, a little lire for heating the wax should be made on the spot,between two bricks or stones. We have seen various preparations lor making grafting wax, and we be lieve we have tried them all, hut pre fer our own. Applying warm or hot, does no injury to the graft. The ob ject to attain in the proportion is that the wax will not crack in cool, dry weather, or run in warm weather.— April is the best time to graft.—Ger mantuicn Telegraph. hob'- Tomatoes should be set out on the lightest and warmest soil. Water them thoroughly a few hours before transplanting, if necessary, and re move each plant carefully by itself, with a ball of earth round the roots. In this way they will receive no check. A light, rather poor soil, pro duces the earliest fruit, but a mode rately rich soil the greatest crop.— brained on a frame, they look neater, but we are not sure that they are much earlier or more productive than when allowed to trail on the ground. \ CI RK >or Felons.—An exchange ■ ays : "A poultice of onions, applied morning, noon and night, will cure a felor. A'o matter how bad the case plitting the finger wi 1 be necessary, it this poultice be used. We have seen it tried several times, and know that the remedy is a sure, safe and speedy one. V need not telf all the truth, uu d i / tli jrx uno Lave a right to know it all. but let all you tell be truth. (frofkerg & fllercljaniiof. Q ROCKERY STORE.
