$4,000 A YEAR 1N POTATOES
Rotation is Important in Getting Maximum Returns From
Year's Crop.
LATEST MACHINERY ESSENTIAL
"This year I sold from a twelve -
sere patch $1,200 wortli of pota-
toes. I have paid for the land
three or four times with potatoes,
and eorae years potatoes were
pretty theap"—thus said Fred A.
jehnson, of Port Stanley, potato
farmer. •
The growing of potatoes on Cana-
dian farms is apt to take one or two
forms: it may be a highly-spetial-
ized industry, to which ether farm
work constitutes a mere ground
work, or it may be merely one es-
pecially-luerative phase of manifold
farm activity. In either case the
result is the same. Possibly DO
farm crop is, at all times, more in
demand than the modern form of
that esculent first called by the
Spaniards "batata,." Certainly no
crop will show a better proportion-
ate profit, all things considered,
year in and year out, than the ubi-
quitous potato.
The writer has found, on Ontario
farms, splendid examples of these
two phases of potato -growing, Let
as first briefly consider the case of
a man who has become rather an
expert, a specialist. I first heard
him described in the city of St.
Thomas as "Johnson, the potato
nian," and at once went to visit
him. Fred A. Johnson lives on a.
hundred and fifty acre farm very
near the village of Port Stanley,
on Lake Erie. When he moved to
his present place forty-three years
ago, he put in five acres of pots, -
toes, and in no single year since
has he failed of a crop. Space for-
bids a detailed explanation of this
expert's methods, but a, few facts
may here be set down that should
be of value to farmers throughout
the Province.
Of the entire 150 acre area of the
farm, twenty-eight acres are de-
voted to potatoes. This area com-
p -lies two fields of ten and eigh-
teen acres, respectively, and in
two fields, each of this size, the an-
nual crop is produced, part of a
scientific rotation. In preparing a
field for potatoes, Mr. Johnson first
grows a crop of oats, seeded down
with clover. While the first crop
clover is cut for hay, the second
left on the ground, and the mat
thus forrned is plowed under the
.following spring. Clover, by the
way, Mr. Johnson regards as 'tisbSso-
iirtely invaluable for use on the
potato ground. When spring
comes, plo-wing and diseing are
clone, barnyard manure being ap-
plied at the rate of twelve to fif-
teen loads per acre. Should the
supply of manure be exhausted, a
feetiltizer ;consisting of potash
(24%), ammonia (TO%) and dissolved
phosphate (66%) is applied by
means of a fertilizer drill. The
soil is, after noanuring or fertiliz-
ing, theronghly ',cultivated with a
TO SUCCESS.
Each
two -horse cultivator, and this oper-
ation is repeated from five to seven
times, at intervals of a few days.
Owing to the close proximity of
the United. States gardens, with.
their early varieties, Mr. Johnson
prefers to handle late potatoes.
Planting, kr the most part, is done
the first week in June. Just here it
might be mentioned that, on this
farm, seed -tutting is done by hand,
the proprietors having found that,
no matter how efficient the machine
used, spuds went to the fields with-
out the necessary 'eye." As Mr.
Johnson said, "When every potato
means two or three cents, one must
be careful that there is an eye on
each pieee planted." The planting
is completed by about the 10th of
June, and thereafter comes con-
tinuous eultivation. 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 entii e growing
season.
A one-horse hiller is used after
the plants attain a fair growth.
Then comes spraying.
"We use an American machine,"
Mr. Johnson said, "a one-horse af-
fair, by means of which the driver,
with a sinaple pressure 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 begs, as, in my forty-three
years' experience I have never had
a case of blight or rot. In the last
two years I have sold 15,000 bush-
els of potatoes to my St. Thomas
customers alone, and I have yet to
heaxeof one single bad potato. This
year we will pick about 6,000 bush-
els, as usual, and I venture to say
that here won't be a, quart measure
full of potatoes unfit for the best
market. If you select your seed
and keep your plants healthy and
y -our soil clean, you need not bother
spraying for rot or blight."
• There is no hand-pieking on this
potato farm. • A four -horse potato -
piker i user ---en Angerican ma-
chine, also—and does the work in a
wonderful manner. As the steel
share uproots the potatoes, they
are thrown on a revolving chain -
carrier which deposits them in a
box carried below the driver's
seat. A boy -walks behind the Ma-
chine, removing the filled boxes
and replacing them with "emp
ties," which have previously been
4eposited at interval•9•41"g the
"That machine cost me as rnuch
ae
a, binder, but 1 wouldn't be with
out it at any price," Mr. Johnson
said. "Newadays one must use the
• latest, machinery if he is to keep up
with the fast -changing eonditions,
Growing over twenty-five acres et
potatoes, we can never go back to
the old system of hand-plcking."
The Johnson potatoes are stored
for the time being, and later on
Imarketed. Mr. Johnson has over
forty private customers in the city
of St. Thomas, including ' hotels,
•colleges, stores, etc., and, as he
says, "St. Thomas will take all the
potatoes I can send it." Besides,
should he care to neglect his local
market, he tan easily dispose of his
crop each year in answer to de-
mands made upon him by United
States dealers and buyers.
Now, as to seed—you couldn't
sell Mr. Johnson any, be your
specimens ever so perfect. He be-
lieves in seed selection •from his
own crop, and his great success has
justified his policy. On no account
would he buy seed from an out-
• sider. No variety, he says, N'aill
ever "run out" if properly propa-
gated by intelligent selection. His
favoritt "late" varieties are. the
Worley and the Carmen, the latter
of which he has grown continuously
for a quarter of a century. Mr.
Johnson will not put the Carmen on
the market till after the month of
January, as not till then, he be-.
lieves, does it attain perfection for
table use.
The writer regrets that he is un-
able to reproduce here a portion of
what is probably the most complete
and unique book of farm accounting
to be found in Canada. "My books
Show that my first tale from this
farra, forty-three years ago, was 54
lbs. of wool at 54 cents a pound,",
read Mr., Johnson from hie ac-
counts. "From that date on, I
can show a written record of every
transaction made on this farm, if
only for a postage stamp."
Mention must needs be made of
this home, built, in no small mea-
sure, from "potato money." It is
surely -one of the finest to be found
on any Canadian farm. Such con-
veniences as a private •acetylene
plant, (lamb waiter, wood -elevator
from cellar to kitchen'and hot,
cold and seftewater on tap, all con-
tribute to a. home -life which appeals
to the visitor as truly adnairable.
So much for one who has made
his twenty -eight -acres of potatoes
the object of special study and ex-
periment.- • Let us 'now turn for a
moment to the -case of an Erin

was an honest and artistic jeweller, he
was sympathetic. It was told thata great
lady, =whose parties were more sought at -
ter than these of royalty, had once ex -
el ainaed:
"I love old Lieb!"
And while people laughed. they had un-
derstood what the Gratin meant. He was
a charming old man to deal with, and

It had been a grief to him when he fin-

neither of hie sons would continue it, yet
he knew that it was the natural conse-
quence of 'the education he had given
them. He had sent these to the best
schools which would admit tradesmen's

made them tra,vel. Atter all they would
have enough to, do as they liked; only
hes eldest eon, Adolphe, who was the
elewerest, he had said ',something which

laughed when he said this, as it it were
a joke, but the truth in it, impressed the
,boy; .onty it ememed to him that a, little
would not be enough, that to make a aIttl
