For the use of our farmers we will reg

COMMUNICATED.
! Mr. EriToa:?"Subscriber" in your
last issue wants to know "the best me
thod of planting Irish potatoes, the best
manure to use, and manner of cultiva
ting them." I do not pretend to know
the "best method," but will give a plan
by which he can make a full crop in most
seasons, which has never failed with me.
I speak, of course, of planting a patch in
garden, taking it for granted no one
wants to make a field crop, of a vegetable
so difficult to keep.
1 broadcast what stable manure I can
spare upon the patch, and plow under
deep. Then lay off vith Inrge shovel
plow, two and a half feet apart, running
twice in row and opening fully tf?n inches
deep (if soil will stand so deep a furrow).
JjCl this be done by February ltd, cer
tuinly not later than the 15th. Cut po
tatoes with one good eye to each piece,
and plant (eye up) tWelvo inches apart.
"With a rake draw down sufficient earth
to cover potatoes two inches, and fill the
furrow nearly full with a mixture of I
woods earth and ashes. Harrow the
patch level, and cover with fully six
inches of straw*. T^his completes the
work until digging time.
"i'l.i Irish potato (unlike tiie svfeet; al
ways bears ABOVE the planted seed, and
if manured, as above described, will bear
up to the surpacc of 'the ground. The
mulching with-#traw keeps land moist,
"M? VF-.v--,-r
enriches it, mid ninkes the temperature
yen* j l prefer the Early Rose potato,
as it is the only variety I know, which is
mkaj/3 When first dug, npd .18 .'also very
early. ] ;j i \\ .\ IVL.VNTKH.

1&?e?!#^ pro
tectiug corn from 1 the!'' ravages-of *cut
worns "is j?st hs 'simple as sweetening a
cilpM? coffee*^-* I - give -a- -remedy-- more
easily applied, and I presume equally
emotive.
Put the seed cbrn into n tight tub or
[ barrel, njhd pouj?j^ CJiougJi water to keep
it well c^fe^\fR| ??jF^*\^^/f;jf
biiSiiel otcoru acid a pouiiQ?or a pound
and a half of copperas, dissolved in warm
water.nfSti?QlI, and allow the corn to
r rcnuuu in^thevCAnncras^^itor twenty-four
;4r^ljrty il?ujrl fftinslveral times while
soaking. When the corn has remained
in the water as directed, tuke it out and
sprinkle a small quantity of land plaster
over > itr-^-enoughJ to prevent tne grain
from sticking together?and plant.
C?rn treated in this manner will not
bo troubled by cut-worms, and will be out
of their reach before the effect of the cop
peras.is destroyed, i
This remedy has boon tried by my fa-'J
thor for the last twelve years, and always
with success He has tried it repeated
ly, in the sa.iie field with corn planted
without any preparation, and the result
was that his csrn required no replanting,
while in somo .instances the other corn
required replanting two or three times.
Other farmers in this portion of the
country have tried this remedy, and al
ways with success I t,
? "E. II?' suggests that his remedy be
tried on cotton, I propose the same ex
periment with the copperas, and, as the
cfpjbnsciji so tripling and the labor will
hpb'aniount to mueq, I .hope some of youf
numerous readers in the cotton region
will try. tho experiment and report the
result to tho "Country Gentleman."
Wheri'preparcd as directed, if a change
should occur in the weather to prevent
planting, the corn may be spread .out on
a door and allowed to remain until good
planting weather. The corn will be as
good as when just taken out of the fratcr;
it will turn black in drying, but that
does not matter. .????
Cut-worms are always worse in new
ground and grass land than in old fields.
I have seen corn prepared as directed
planted in new ground and clover laiid,
and verv few hills required replanting.
If E. H. will try this, and follow di
rectious, I don't think he will want to
use salt dgain; and I 'hope B. F. J. of]
Illinois, and Levi Bartlctt of New Hamp
shire, will try it also?that is, if the
worms ever trouble their corn?and re
port the results through your paper as
the season is far enough advanced.?W*]
