LARGE POTATO YIELD. 



Mr. Edward Bonynge, of Stroud township, near Stroudsburg, planted about three pounds of " The Thorburn, earliesj 

 and best," this spring, and in 90 days he dug from this planting three bushels and some quarts of very fine, large potatoes. This 

 variety is great in size and very nicely proportioned, and is considerably earlier than the Early Rose and much better foi 

 cooking. — Monroe Democrat.
