Rotation is Impertant in Getting Maximum Returns From Each
Year's Crop.
LATEST MACHINERY ESSENTIAL TO SUCCESS.
"This year I 'Sold from a, twelve -
acre patch $1,200 worth el pota-
toos 1 have 'paid for the and
three or four times with potatoes,
and soine years potatoes were
pretty eheap"-thus said Fred A.
Johnson, ,of Port ,Stanley, potato
farmee. -
The growing of potatoea on Cana-
dian farms is apt to take one or two
forms ; it may be a highly -special-
ized industry, to which other 'farm
work conetitute,s a mere ground
work, or it maybe merely one es-
pecially-lucratiae phase of manifold
farm autivity. In either ;case the
result is the same. Possibly no
farm crop is, ate all times, more in
demand than the modern form of
that esculent first ealled by the
Spaniards "batates." Certainly no
crop will show a better proportion -
ale profit, all thinge considered,
year in and year out, than the ubi-
quitous potato.
The writer has found, on Ontario
farmi4, splendid examples of these
two phasee of potato -growing. Let
its fust briefly consider the ease of
a man who has become rather an
expert., a specialist. I firat heard

Owing to the close proximity of
theeeUnited States gaxaen$, with
theff CaalY varieties, Mr. johneon
prefers to handle date potatoes.
;Planting, for the most part, is done
the first week in Jane. Just here i
might be mentioned that, on thi

Johnson said, "When every potato

he careful that there is an eye on
each piece planted." The planting
completed by about the 10th of
June, and thereafter wines ,eon-
tinuous culbivation. After the seed
has been planted for a, week, the
ground is 'harrowed lightly, and a
week or so later a cultivator, with.
hillers, is used. Once the plants
appear ,above the surface, cultiva-
tion continues at intervals of one
week during the entire growing
aeason. '
A one-horse hiller is used after
the plants attain a fair growth.
Than comes spraying.
"We use an American ma,ehine,"
Mr. Johniion said, "a one -horn af-
fair,' by means of which the driver,
with a simple pa•essure on the foot
brake, directs the spray over -eight
rows on each trip up and down the
field. We use a Paris green spray
for bugs, as, in my forty-three
years' experience I have never had
.case of blight or rot. In the last
two years I have sold 15,000 bush-
els of potatoes to my Sb. Thomas
customers atone, and. I have yeb to
hear of one single, bad potato. Talia
year we will pick about 6,000 bush-
els; as usual; and I venture to say
that here won't be a quart measure
fulil .of potatoes' unfit for the best
market. If you select your seed
and keep your planis.healthy and
your soil clean, you need not bother
spraying for rot or blight."
There is no handpicking on this
potato farm. A four -horse potato -
packer is user-ans American ma-
chine, also -and does the work in a
wonderful manner, As the steel
share uproots the potatoes, they
are thrown on a revolving
hain-
carrior which depogta them in a
hex carried below the driver's
'seat A boy walks behind the ma-
ehine, removing the filled boxes
and replacing them with "emp-
ties,'' which have previoualy been
deposited at intervals along the
rows.
"That machine ,cost me as much
esti, binder, but I evoteldn't be with-
out it at any price," Mr. Johnson
said. "Nowadays one must use the
latest machinery if he is to keep op
with the fast -changing (conclitione.
Growing over teventy-five acres of
potatoes, we can Dever go back to
the old systern of hand-picking."

the potato crop from a fifteen acre
field for about $1,000. HOW 0013011

it this, way: .
"Frankly, I reckon that the po-
tato erop pays all and
minor expenses, leaving the returns
from other farm work for any other
use we desire."
Mr, Baldwin each year plants by
hand some twelve or fifteenaaeres,
mostly of the Delaware variety,
which he finds very popular on' On-
tario Markets, Like Mr. Johnson,
he finds heavy fertilization very
e s se n tial a lid p r o fit e, and is 05
firan believer, .also, in :the virtue of
consistent., thorough summer culti-
vation of the potato ground.
"We find potato -growing to work

Baldwin said to the -writer. "We
generally sow grain on potato or
turnip grouad and get excellent re-

Baldwin:, at the time, of my visit,
was throwing his energies into
the forwarding of the echeme to
form a Hillsburg Potato Growers'
Anociation. "We grow good po-
tatoes,"ethe amid, "and we want the
public to feel .assured in ,clealing
