The soil best suited to the Potato is a ricli, sandy loam, but it seems to thrive in almost any soil or climate. The 

 Potato being a gzoss feeder requires a liberal application olnianure. If stable manure is to be used it should be well- 

 rotted, and not allowed to come in contact witli the tubers.On no other crop are the results from the use of phosphates 

 so manifest as on the Potato. Almost invariably the tubersare smoother, brighter and freer from rust and the destruc- 

 tive inlluence of wire worms. GRIFFITH & TUBNISR CO.'SFIiANT FOOD is especially adapted for Potatoes, as it pro- 

 motes growth ;ind at the same time prevents disease. Plantas early in the spring as the ground can be tlioroughly 

 worked in rows three feet apart and one foot in the rows.covering in light, warm soil about four inches, and in cold, 

 wet ground three inches deep; draw the earth to the plantsas they advance in growth. The soil should be constantly 

 stirred through the season to prevent the surface from baking.

EARIiV NORTHER. — This superb Potato originated at 

 Caribou, Maine. It resembles the Early Rose in shape and 

 color, matures earlier than the Rose, and is much more pro- 

 ductive. Under our own observation the past season it yielded 

 more than the Rose, matured earlier, and was in all respects 

 superior.

PROSPERITV. — A middle-crop variety, one of the hand- 

 somest large Potatoes ever produced. The yield is immense, 

 and even under unfavorable circumstances can be relied on; 

 flesh very white; cooks dry and mealy.
