The Potato.
As the, season for planting potatoes is
drawing near, let me describe the best
varieties of this fine root. I will begin
with the white and yellow varieties :
FL RST--WIIITE• AND YELLOW POTATOES
Mercer or Meshanock.—This potato is
called the Mercer Potato from its having
originated in Mercer county, Pennsylva
nia, about the year 1812, from the ball
or seed of a potato planted by Joseph
Gilkey, who raised on the banks of the
Meshannock,'sometimes. called Meshan
nook creek, Vih'itih - has given rise to its
riaare, of the Meshannock Potato. It is
also known in some places as the Chenan
go l'otato. The Mercer -Potato is an
carry white variety, remarkable for the
whiteness and mealiness of its flesh, of
medium size, and equally if not everr.su
prior, to any other -for table use, and
"c..nronands a higher price in the Market
than the Pink-Eye, the English White,
the Long Red and most other potatoes,
and hence is the '' , eneral favorite L and ex
tensively cultivated, although rather un
productive.
Pink E,vc.—The Pink Eye Potato, so
called from its eyes being of a pink and
pinkish color, consists of two kinds, sim
ilar in their quantity, a long and a round
variety. White-skinned, with pinkish
eyes, very productive, excellent for table
use. And hence it is a universal favor
. ite;_and largely cultivated, as it is found
to be one of the most profitable that can
be raised, There is also a yellow-skin
ed variety with pink colored eyes of the
same quality.
Old English or Spanish ti h ite.
The old English or Spanish .White is a
productive and choice white variety,
nearly like the Pink Eye in quality, and
equally good for table use ; indeed some
regard it as the best of all varieties for
this purpose.
- White Blue-nose.---The White Blue-
Nose is a very early and mealy potato, of
medium size, and although not so pro
ductive as the Long Red and the Orange
Potato, is extensively cultivated in the
States of Maine & - Vermont,where it is so
highly esteemed for table use, that it-com
mands a greater price in the market than,
and has very near superseded, all other
varieties, as it is found to be the most
profitable kind to raise. The editor of
the Npw England Farmer says that the
White Blue-Nose, though a moderate
bearer, unless it receives generous treat
ment or culture, is decidedly the best po
tato for the table he ever cultivated.—
Origin of its name is unknown.
White Kidney or Foxite.—The White
Kidney, sometimes called the Foxite, is
an early potato, fine for table use and prof
itable to raise, and considerably cultiva
ted. It is called White Kidney from its
exterior color, and oblong and flatish or
Kidney shaped form.
Early Jane.—The Early June, so
called because it is, in good seasons,-fit
for the table ear y in' June, is a round
white potato; very early, yields well, and
is fine for the table for summer use, and
hence one of the most profitable varieties
that can be cultivated. It is sometimes
called the Mountain Juno, but for what
reason I am unable to say.
arheart.—The Oxheart, so called, I
presume, from its resembling in size the
heart of a full grown ox, is a large round
White potato, with pink colored eyes,
rather coarse grained, but productive.—
This variety is apt to-be -unsound or hol-
low at its core or heart, but has on suita
ble soils, sometimes grown of such extra
ordinary size as to weigh from one to two
and a half pounds each, and still be sound
and solid at the heart.
Flesh-Colored - Poialo.----The Flesh
Colored Potato, so called from its resem
bling the skin of the white man, in color,
is a productive variety, more solid than
tie Mercer and the Carter, also more sol
id and better for table use than the Me-
lino Potato, and is on all accounts wor
thy of cultivation.
. 0 rive Potfao.—The Orange Pot*,
so palled from its round or orange like
forrn,and color, is also hardier than the
°Metter and the Charter Potato, very pro
ductive, and is. by , some esteemed the
best Potatoe, -or at least among . the heel,
and every way worthy of ouTvoCorissab
• Irish Grey.—The Irrah-Grey .r .ualle#
suppose from the grey rte.% of.rtgi , (Abr.,
also milks among the best varieties, suoh
its the Mei.Cer, Pink-Eye, Orange Pota
to, Blue and Red Meshannoek, &c., and
is a good deal cultivated in some places.
An Antidote to the Potato Rot.
Professor Bollman, of the Russian Ag
ricultural Institute; has published a pana- -
pith - A on the potato-rot, and he announces
to the world that mere drying, if conduc
ted at a sufficiently high temperature,
and continuediong enough, is a complete
antidode to the disease. This result was
ascertained by repeated experiment con
ducted for a series of years. The tem
perature required to produce the desired
result is not very clearly made out. Mr.
Bollman's room, in which his first pota
toes were dried, was heated to about sev
enty-nine degrees, and much higher. By
way of experiment, he placed others in
the chamber of the stove itself, where the
thermometer stood at one hundred and
thirty-six degrees, and more. He also
ascertained that the vitality of the potato
is not affected, even if the rind is char
red. This hint may be useful, and with
similar experiments, carefully conducted,
the fact may be established.
