DIE MILLER COUNTY LIBERAL Entered in Postoffice at Colquitt Ga., as second class matter. PUBLISHED EVEBY WeuNESDA'’. lost ph & Zula B. Toole. Editors Subscription, - - §1 (M) per year. COLQUITT GA, Mar, 5 1907 i ' ~~~ ’ i PLANTING IRISH PO TATOES. I prefer a sandy loam fi' r potato „ nH. This to lx> nt its best should ! contain a good supply of well-rot-1 ted humus, furnished either by turning under a sod or growth of | vegetation of some kind, or by a I liberal application of barnyard ma- I nuro, says a grower in the Amori cia Agriculturist. I generally select R lO piece of laud for potatoes the fail previous to the spring the crop is to be planted, in order to give it a dress ing of wett-totted manure if it is not already rich enough. It is then plowed. If early potatoes are desired, « fair iob of getting them in may be done by simply running furrows the proper dis-1 ’ nn be ApartJ as e§rly in the fnll as I the soil can b« decently turned,] dropping the seed in the bottom of I the furrow. If the soil in which one is oblig ee to plant his potatoes is such that it runs together or packs bad ly during the winter, nothing may be gained by fall plowing. With soil of this kind, to get an early ■"• art in the spring one should not °PPLv manure in the fall or during the wi. nn j ] enve p U p. on the surface, as it tnqjgf ros f an( ] moisture and prevents eaify plow ing. Neither should the draw Tug , out of the manure be left until spring, as a few days' delay then : iv nti.ke the difference between n- *"r> Vnn and niii* fba K * -> not. All things considered, a piece of land had a good supply of humus given it the year previous to the one it is used as potato ground is , the best. Experience teaches me that fres manurd, even, is apt to produce scab or other disease on the tubers. I am fully persuaded that it is much more protitaole for mo to use goodsized potatoes for seed rather than small ones. When the former arc used, I cut as near ly as possible *o pieces having two eyes each, when small tubers are used, I cut ” ' \segd end. When late potiLovs •uVtTesire'u | it is hardly possible to get the laud I in too good condition. It should be plowed and harrowed or disked till it is so fine that each piece of seed will lie in a bed of mellow earth and have a covering ot the same, Ti e object in raising early pota toes is to get tubers, as early ns enough to >ass in the market; in late potatoes, a good yield of large, smooth tubers is de sired and to gvi vkws uroi'ovk must be in the beet shape possible when planted. In selecting the land, in decid ing upon the variety and whether to raise early or late potatoes one ■"■’-o ■■‘' f determine upon his market and t, ; (e re quirments if he would have his venture successful.

He was made a Mason uid came to Georgia long before he war.

We bolived him to be and he was looked upon as a honorable Christian gentle man. By his temperate habits ho lived to the good old age of ninety-one years. We never knew a wilful wrong of him.
