Mr. Pierson, who took tho first prize, plank'd tho crop on May 18, and harvested Sept. 24. 
Stoclcbridgo Manure alone was used, at the rate of 1,000 lbs. per acre. The soil was a sandy loam* 
Potatoes were planted, one piece In a hill, hoed three times, aud weeded by hand 
Stephen Hoyt's Sons, who took the second prize, planted ou 16th May, aud harvested 23rd 
September. Stockbridgo Manure alone was used, at tho rate of 1,500 lbs. per acre. The soil 
had been used for nursery purposes, and had not boeu in turf for forty years. The fertilizer 
used on this crop was two years old, showing that these celebrated Manures do not lose their 
virtue by being kept over, as many funnel's suppose.
