But this has not. been the case. Some, a few. farmers have potato crops, while their neigh- bours’ potatoes have scarcely been Worth the labour. This difference of produce must, be attributed to other causesâ€"to the quality and nature of' the soil, its condition for the crop, and the variety of potota planted. [Any soil may be so treated as to produce a pretty good crop of potatoes in favorable seasons: but a farmer need not be told there are soils naturally adapted for its culture. Rota- tion of crops is another requisite to sue cessf‘nl potato culture. With the writer mentioned above this course was not fol- lowed. The light potato crop 0F "76 seems to have followed a potato crop of the previ- ous year. This mav in part account for its being almost a failure Some crops are better adapted to take their place in a rotation after other crops of a difi'erent mode ot'growth. We have raised our heaviest potato crops, and those of the best quality. on ground that had the previous year been under grass, peas, or eorn. As to the variety of' potatoes, the host crops we have known this season have been of' early sorts, as the Early Rose. They took hold of the ground enrlv; the unfavorable season had less effect on their growth ; their maturing and ripening was not forced as it was of later sorts. A slowgrowing, late-matur- ian potato is not the most suitable for our short seasons. The question naturally arises. is such aloss unavoidable? Is there no method by which we can guard against the recur- rence of' such losing results? We can- not, we know, by any menus in the least control the weatherâ€"and to the drought or humidity of the weather much of the poverty of the crop must be attributable; but is it not within our power to guard against. the injurious effects of an imâ€" f‘nVOurable condition of the weather. That, this aim be. at least, partially ef- fected, we have little doubt; and the more clearly we see that there is such a possibility, the more likely will he to in- quire into and to adopt preventive mea- sures. Were every farmer to make inquiries such as are here suggested, and to com municafe the result Of his inquiries to an agricultural paper. he would be doing good service to himself and other culxiva- tors of the soii.-â€"Farmers’ Advocale, London. Never was the uncertainty of the yield from the potato crop more clearly shown than in the crop of' .1876 and the pre- eeeding yearâ€" the former a season of abundant produce and consequent low prices; the latter a season of mops so light as by some to ‘be called a failure. In 1875 potatoes were sold in these markets at 20 ets. to 25 ets per bushel. and so it. was throughout the Dominion. ‘In the Maritime Provinces they were bought at as low prices, and large quan- tities of them‘ made into starch. From New England we had similar reports. This year. in the ycry season when pota- toes are cheapest, they are sold here at $1 per bag of 1% bush. In the Mari- time Provinces they were bought at 500. per bush, an? shipped in large quanti- ties to New England. A correspondent. of the 071,170 Farmer says :â€"" I won’t have twohundred bushels ofpotatoes from five acres. From the same fieldlastyearl dug eight hundred bushels.” He adds: â€"“ According to my estimate. an acre of potatoes cannot be cultivated for less than twenty dollars‘ which is just about what my field Will produce this year, leaving nothing for use of the land.” 02m 00w A’MINE or Wanamâ€"The history of the shotth'orn cow, Duchess 66th, which was sold iii 1855, at Earl Ducie’s sale in England, to Col. Morris, of Fordham, for‘700,guin‘eas, or $3,675, is remarkable as showing the aciual value of one good breeding animal. From this cow. which was calved in November, 1850, there may be traced in direct des- cent a. number of animals which have sold for about $500,000. Let it be adâ€" mitted that as much of this value as may be is depending on fancy or rich breeders and is not the intrinsic value of the beef and milk produced; yet no one can help admit.ng that an immense val- ue, estimated in these alone, has accrued to the world from this cow ; and in pro- portion to this value may be estimated the profit to a. breeder from anysuperior :mimal he may produce. A line of breeding animals is brought into existence which spreads out fun like, ‘and diverges , .__,i:| "uwu yr“... Vear by year wider and “ider, until we can no longer reach the bounds of tho of the beneficial influence. It is in this that lies the value of any good animal, and it is an unfair. disparagement to con- fine its value to the weight. of meat upon its carcass, or Rs produce in milk or nut~ let. The breeder who ptryducas a. sup- erior animal Sets in moti~m an impulse which must iii-time spread and increase enormously, ani far beyond computw» non.
