CXJItTXIRE. — Potatoes thrive and produce best in a light, dry, but rich soil. Cotton-

 enough. If the ground was planted the Fall previous with cow peas, which were plowed 

 under, it will be in good condition for Potatoes. Good size tubers should be selected 

 for planting, which can be cut in pieces not too small: each piece ought to contain at 

 least three eyes. Matures in 95 to 140 days. Plant in drills from two to three feet 

 apart. Corona Dry is particularly efficient in the control of the ordinary potato bug.
