W ILSON’S Improved Patent People’s Cooking and 
Parlor Stoves. The subscriber is now manufac¬ 
turing, at his warehouse, all the varieties of the above 
named stoves, some of which have stood the test of years. 
The People’s Cooking Stove possesses advantages which 
rentiers it superior to any thing of the kind ever before 
in use. The plan of operating with it is entirely new; 
the entire heat is thrown first under the four boilers, and 
then returning by means of an extra return flue, passes 
entirely around the oven without being divided, which 
makes it the best baking and boiling stove now in use. 
The oven is very large, capable of baking six loaves at a 
time if required. This stove has taken for three suc¬ 
cessive years, the highest prize at the American Insti¬ 
tute Fair. The following certificate and names are pre¬ 
sented to the public, as references; many more might 
be obtained, but these are deemed sufficient.

Mr. James Wilson—Sir—You wish my opinion of your 
new cooking stove, termed “the People’s Stove;” my 
family are much pleased with it, and say, of the great 
number which they have had in use, yours is decidedly 
the best, not only on account of convenience, the perfect 
manner in which the cooking is performed, but also on 
account of the economy of fuel which it effects. Yours 
respectfully,

R OHAN POTATOES.—This new and extraordinary va¬ 
riety of the potato, was introduced into this country from 
Switzerland two years ago. 
The following are among the accounts which have been 
published respecting its wonderful qualities. 
A writer in the Genesee Farmer says, one pound of seed 
planted in his garden, produced 136 lbs. 3 ozs ; and 45 lbs. 
planted on 24 rods of ground, produced 58 bushels, being 
three times as many as the common kinds produced on the 
same space and quality of ground. 
A gentleman from Connecticut, from 13 ozs. of seed pro¬ 
duced 2h bushels of potatoes, which weighed 144 pounds 
while other varieties, with similar soil and cultivation, did 
not produce more than half an ordinary crop, owing to the 
extreme dry weather. It is stated that some of these tubers 
sold for $1 each, at the New Haven Horticultural Fair.— 
Judge Buel (in the Cultivator) says we have cultivated them 
two seasons, and feel justified in recommending them as a va¬ 
luable acquisition in our husbandry. 
First—Because their quality for the table will justify it.— 
If not superior they are good. The flesh is yellow, solid, and 
of good flavor. 
Secondly—Because they admit of a great economy in seed; 
two eyes sufficing (and many of the tubers have 30 to 40 
eyes) to plant a hill, and three or four bushels to plant an 
acre of ground. 
Thirdly—Because they require comparatively little labor in 
harvesting, a man being able to dig thrice as many of them in 
a day as of ordinary kinds. The tubers are very large, 110 
of the largest of our crop completely filling a flour barrel., 27 
bushels were dug in our presence in one hour, (the tops be¬ 
ing pulled,) by one man at moderate labor. 
Fourthly—Because they yield an abundant crop—from 85 
rods of ground were gathered 175 bushels, while our com¬ 
mon kind did not give us half a crop. One case has been 
stated to us, of a single potato producing a bushel, and ano¬ 
ther of its having produced a barrel at harvest. 
They are for sale at the Albany Seed Store, by
