J'lom Hie Ntw-England Farmer,
CCLTCRfe OF POTATOES.
A writer.for Pax ton and liurrison’s Morficul
tnra! Register, with the signature “ G. J. T.”
and author of the Domestic Gardener’s Manual,
observes, that “ our enlightened President, Mr.
Knight, has |dacod me in possession of direc
tions for planting that noble root [the potato] in
hb own hand writing.” They are os follows;
I obtained from the ash-leaved kidneys, last
season, (a bad one, 1830,) a produce equal to
six hundred and seventy bushels, of eighty lbs.
• 7 O -
each to the statute acre ; and I entertain no
doubt of having as many tin's year. To ob
tain these vast crops of the ash-leaved kidneys
1 always plant whole potatoes, selecting the larg
est I can raise ; and tor a very early crop, those
ripened early in the preceding summer and kept
dry. I usually plant them on their ends, to stand
with the crown end upwards, and place them at
four inches distance, from centre to centre in the
rows : the rows two feet apart d: always point
ing north and south.
1 plant rny large potatoes much In the same
wav, but with wider intervals, according to the
** 7 D
height which the stems attain ; thus, one which
grows a yard high, at six inches distance from
cen're to centre, and three feet six inches or
four feet between the rows, never hutting any
pota o, nor planting one of loss weight than a
quarter hut generally half a pound. By using
such large sets, I get very strong and large
plants with widely extended roots, very early
in the summer.
The blossoms take away a good deal of sap
which may be better employed in forming po
tatoes ; and whenever a potato affords seed
freely, 1 think it almost an insuperable objec
tion to if. As a general rule, I think that pota
toes ought to be planted in rows, distant from
each other in proportion to the height of the
b.iiis. ddie height of stems being lull three
feet, the rows ought to be four feet apart, an 1
The sets, of*the very largest varieties, planted
whole, never to he more distant from centre to]
centre than six inches.—By such mode of plant-j
ing, the greatest passible quantities of leaf (the
organ, by which alone blood is made,) arc ex
posed to the light.
The philosophy of these able and simple di
rections may he shortly explained ; It coiftislsj
in the exposure of tho utmost possible surface
of the respiratory organs, (the leaves.) to the
ag< ncy of the electrizing principle of the solar
light, and of correspondent breadths of soil to
the influences of air and heat; so that the roots
may be enabled to extend right and left to a dis
tance- somewhat exceeding that of the height of
the st> ms and foliage.
The potato called the early champion, was
that with which I began my experiments, early
in .March, 1831. Ti.' soil was that of a pas-,
lure, a deep and brown sandy loam, upon a j
chalky subsoil, approaching to marl. This soil;
had hern trenched in the autumn to the depth of
two feet, and the turf inverted at the bottom of
each trench. About eighty pounds of these
potatoes were planted whole, in rows two feet
asunder, running north and south, the sets about
six inches apart, crown from crown. But as 1
could not obtain a sufficiency of live variety at I
the time, I was cons ruined to employ such as I
had, and therefore the size of the potatoes was
not attended to. —The rows were weeded early,
and the stems advanced regularly till the fatally
destructive Gth of May, when the frost destroy
ed and blackened every leaf that had fairly e
niergcd from the surface. Thus I lost all the
hciielit that would have boon otherwise dt-i'ivsf,
from the early developed leaves; and conse
qucnlly a considerable weight of the advancing
crop, la a Week or ten days, however, fresh
shoots were protruded, and as the stems advan
ced they were deeply earthed up, that is, till the
whole piece of ground had the appearance of so
many ranks of ridges, the intervening spaeflfe
being twelve inches deep in the centre. Thisj
one effectual earthing up, sufficed, and the crop*
attained perfect maturity in due time. The to
tal yield of potatoes (which were fur the great
est part of a fair average size and of most ex
cellent quality, mealy and fine flavor,) was five j
hundred and seventy-six pounds.
The early frame pot, to, planted the first week j
in March, was the subject of the second experi
ment. I had procured one peck weighing four
teen pounds, and the tubers were cut into small
sets witu one to three eyes each. The sets were
planted in rows, pointing north and south, two
feet asunder, the sots being four iucln * apart in 4
the rows. The site was a garden plot, four
yards by seven yards and a half, i. e. thirty
square yards. The subsoil was a strong, stiff
loam, and this was brought to the surface by
deep trenching, just before it was cropped. This
plot snflbrcd also from the frost above alluded
to. The final yield was very great, (two him
dred and fifty-nine pounds,) but the potatoes
v. ere far from being regular as to size ; a great
v. C ... 7
proportion were small, weighing little more than!
one or two ounces each, occasioned, I doubt:
not, by cutting the tubers into small sets.
The third experiment commenced the 25th ofj
March, when 1 was enabled to procure a small
supply of a variety styled .early champions, but
was evidently far from true to its kind. The!
potatoes were planted by the side of the first
plot of champions, in rows two feet six inches]
asunder; the sets six inches apart, crown from
crown. The total yield, digged up between!'
August 25. and September 18, 1831, was one:
thou Sand two hundred'and nine pounds.*
General deductions from facts. —First—l find l
that I t le or nothing is gained by planting bc-i
fm* the middle of March [in England;] for iff
the frost destroys the leaves as it did those of my;
first-sown champions, a great loss in the pro-lj
duct of the tubers must inevitably bo experienc-'j
ed. Secondly, early ripened potatoes will yield
an earlier crop than others of the same varic-i
tv, which have come to maturity at a later peri
od of the preceding season. My first champi
ons were produced by myself, from a few roots
given to me by a neighbor in June, 1830. The
land required to be trenched, and therefore the
potatoes were not in the ground till tin? last week'
in.he month; hence they scarcely ripened be
fore the frost set in. The eighty-four pounds
planted in April, had been produced at the usual,
season by a tanner, and they came in very ear
ly and yielded almost double the quantity of
those firs: planted. It is but just, however to
stale that wc commenced digging the latter, as
early young potatoes, in July: and therefore.*
scarcely two-thirds remained to attain perfect
maturity. Thirdly, ash-leaved kidneys, above _
all others, require to be planted whole ; if they
are not, many of them may not germinate at]
all. I tried an experiment during last year and
it was decisive in its results. Henceforward I
never intend to plant a cut set of this potato,'i
nor a whole one of very small size. I trust
That niv experiments on each variety that 1 plant
Lb
’; during the current season, will be conducted witlw
[a degree dT precision and exactitude, that may|
Tj enable me on a future occasion, to announce I
their particular routine and final results, in a|
j way that shall leave no doubt of the efficacy of
i; -Mr. Knight’s mode of culture. ..j

l ii SILK GRASS.
‘i t Paeotaligo, S. C. May 18 th, 1832.
Mr. Smith ;—Last summer, as a matter of,
j. curiosity, I cut a few leaves of what is vulgarly]
j, called here the silk grass, (I do not know the ho-;
jtanic name, hut it is a species of agave, without
■ | j thorns,) and to my surprise gave me fibres after
; | water rotting, resembling those cf which the
•q South American grass twine i.s made. I have
never seen any notice taken of it in this country.
' Dossie in liis Memoirs of Agriculture, (London,
j;176(>,) says of it, that “The fibres are very
! j long; and, when manufactured make thread,!
•j| which has tlie glossiness of silk: hut in strength j
• [farexceeds that, or any filamentous Substance!
)| whatever.” He also states it to be the grass of!
j i which Indian hammocks arc made. 1 have some*
■pidea of cultivating it with a view to the making
ij| of some experiments with it, and as it is now in j
ifj flower i hope to save plenty of seed.

'I _ ROBERT CHISOLM.

:;ihy our correspondent, to ascertain what the grass ■
;jis ol which lie speaks, and shall tiierefore l.v?
greatly obliged if some of our southern friends
■ will favor us with arl account of it. We should
: judge that it would he found an article*of great
• importance for all kinds of cordage ; particular.

! same convenient rate, which he has reason tv believe
i has hitherto given it bd wide a circulation and such a
durable and fluttering popularity, as has rendered it a
favorite and amusing visitor during the eight years of its
i publication. As its correspondents are daily increasing
j mid several highly talented individuals with the benefit
j ol whose literary labors he has not heretofore been fa
vored, and whose writings would reflect honor upon any
periodical, have engaged to contribute to its columns, ho
flatters himself that, their communications and the ori
ginal matter already on hand, together with (he best pe
riodicals of the day, with which he is regularly supplied, |
will furnish him with ample materials for enlivening its
pnfctts with that variety expected in works of this nature.

THE LADY’S BOOK. I
|pHE number for July, 1b32, commences the fifth t
JBl volume of the Lady’s Rook. In presenting this j
number to the notice of our patrons we again lake occa- i
sion to render thanks for the liberality which bus been
extended towards us, and to invite attention to our work.]
It would be fastidious in us to deny that our Bonk pos. I
scsscs merits which no similar publication can fairly |
1 claim. The immense and unprecedented patronage!
bestowed upon it, the continual rapid augmentation of the
general and concurrent testimony of the press in its;
favour, are circumstances which leave us no room for
doubt on This subject. Indeed with the superior facili-1
ties wc possess, wc should be properly obnoxious to cen
sure, if our work did not surpass its contemporaries. j
In our present number we think there will be found !
considerable improvement. Wc respectfully ask atten
tion to our Plate of the Fashions, which we boldly as- [
' I sort is urfequHlled by any similar engraving heretofore
H published in this country, and in proof of this we need;
j I only institute a comparison between it and those furnish
tied by other periodicals. Anxious as we have always
| been to avoid any invidious distinctions, we should nut
! have referred to this matter, had not ‘ comparison been
. 'challenged by the publisher of another journal. We
j hope the contrast will be made, and shall esteem it a
i particular favour on the part of our editorial brethren
if any of them whose leisure will permit, will examine ;
our plate either m reference to its own merits, or by |»
(comparison with ethers. The result of such an exam. !
dination we know must be favourable. The artists era
. ployed by us are of the first excellence, and their works
are such as need shrink from no investigation. The
~ wood engravings accompanying the present number will
b also be f und worthy of admiration,
| We had hoped to furnish in the present number the; |
PRIZE TALE and POEM for which our premiums of j
§350 were offered. In this we have been disappoint- i,
! ed, as the gentlemen composing the Committee have
!J been so occupied in their various public avocations, that
1 they have not yet made the award. In our next wc
shall have the pleasure of laying both the Prize articles
i; before our readers, and it gratifies us to be able to as
sure them that, wherever the award may fall, it will be jj
well deserved, as we have received and laid before the !j
Committee a very large number of unusually interesting j
Tales and Poems. The publication of these will be !
regularly continued, and the future numbers of the';
Lady’s Hook, will contain original contributions such !
as will safely bear comparison with those of any other '
periodical, foreign or American.
1 i In the course of the volume which has now com
menced, a variety of improvements will be effected.;
I Among these we may mention the introduction of sev
i'eral very peculiar and striking engravings.
