Second Crop of Potatoes.
To grow a second crop of Irish po
tatoes to be used for winter uses Is a
perplexing problem for the farmer.
Keeping the first crop over for winter
use is almost impossible and it is a
choice of buying the winter supply or
growing the second crop.
The greatest difficulty in planting
the first crop seed is in getting a
stand. The new potatoes will not ger
minate readily, and if planted only a
small percentage will grow.
Some growers overcome this diffi
culty by placing the seed potatoes, as
soon as they are dug, in a moist, fairly
cool place such as In a shallow trench
in the shade of a tree. Or by cutting
in halves, spreading on the ground
and covering with pine needles kept
moist. They are then watched, and as
they show signs of sprouting are
planted in deep furrows, covering
lightly at first, working the soil to
them as they grow until level. Then
cultivate shallow and level. Some va
rieties make a better second crop than
others, among which are Early Rose,
B’iss Triumph, Irish Cobbler and
Peerless Plant in soil where the mois
■ire has been retained.
