A good way to secure earllness tn the case of potatoes is to pack a num- ber in saud somewhere where they will get plenty of light This should be done a week or so before planting time. As soon as tbe ground is ready these tubers are set out carefully so as not to break off the sprouts which have started. A week or more in the earliuess of the crop can be saved in this way. The early potatoes may be planted rather shallow aud a thick coating of straw placed between tbe rows. On nights when there is danger of freezing, the plants can be covered with straw. No cultivation will be necessary, since the straw will keep the weeds down and conserve mois­ ture. When digging time comes the straw can be thrown back and the po­ tatoes will be found on top of the ground, or nearly so. Of course this plan is not practicable except for a few rows of the earliest potatoes. your watch Lents, Ore. Troutdale, Ore.
