The Time to Set Sweet Potatoes for'
Beet Yield.
Few of our field or garden crops
can be planted over so long a period
with such satisfactory results as the
sweet potato.
A number of experiments have been
conducted at the Georgia Experiment
Station to determine at just what
tune of the year to set sweet potato
plpnts to produce the largest yields.
.' Isonal conditions varied the yields
r*(/m year to year. But the plantings
extending over a number of years
showed that the best yields were
made by plants set from about the
middle of May until the 11th of JuneIt
was observed further, however,
that profitable crops could be made
from plants set as late as the 5th of
July.
Where a full crop of sweet potatoes
has not been planted the crop
may follow small grain, as oats.
whait and rvo with vprv satlnfnptnrv
results. Usually about this time of the
y?*r there is an accumulation of some
stable manure on most farms. This
may be applied in the drill at the rate
of about ten two-horse wagon loads
per acre and supplemented with commercial
fertilizers at the rate of about
300 pounds per acre. A fertilizer approximately
an 8-2-2 will be good for.
this purpose, however, almost any|
remnant of a fertilizer mixture which
may be on hand will serve.
Further experiments at the Georgia
Experiment Station show that for
very late plantings, cuttings from
vines will give a few more potatoes
than will draws or slips. This may
be explained by the fact that vine cuttings
produce a cluster of potatoes '
from two or more nodes of the part,
set while the plant forms one cluster,
and neither has time to become:
ciowded or reach full development.
. Another advantage derived from the
dbe of vine cuttings is the production j
of potatoes nearly free from disease.!
The much dreaded "black rot" of .
sweet potatoes lives largely on thei
roots of the plants. Thus when vine J
cuttings are used, and planted on
non-infected soil, that is, soil which
has not grown sweet potatoes for sev- |
eral years, the disease is largely eliminated.
H. P. Stucky, Director.
With a potato curing house guaranteed
to be in operatln by October
1st we wish our farmers to grow
enough Porto Rico potatoes to fill
the house. If oat land ig immediately
fixed for planting a profitable crop
can yet be made. Should the potatoes
not get large enough for shipping
they will make excellent seed for the
next crop. If the small potatoes are
properly cured they may sell for seed
purposes as well as the larger ones.
In about ten days, after it rains vine
cuttings can be had in sufficient
quantity to plant any reasonable
acreage.
Our potato curing plant will take
care of about twenty thousand five|
peck crates. If you wish to encourage
a new industry plant sweet Dotatoes.!
but be sure you plant Porto Ricos. As |
a food crop and beginning with a
late season there is no danger of over
production. If we fail to sell to our'
northern neighbors we can consume

THE POOR 8LEEPER.
One sign that a man has had insufficient
sleep is finding himself
drowsy at odd hours during the day.
There are many simple precautions
that a man so affected can practice.
He will often find it a waste of time
to lie in bed obstinately trying to get
to sleep. The wise course for him is
to rise, put on warm slippers and a
dressing gown and read until his
brain grows quiet. He may find
tbat eating a light luncheon will
help; one physician used to advise
his patients either to heat a cup of
milk and sip it slowly or to eat an
apple slowly, skin and all.
Anyone who is subject to insomnia
should make sure that when in bed
his head shall be * ool and hiB feet
warm; he should use a hot-water
bottle or a light pillow at the foot of
the bed if he cannot keep his feet
warm otherwise. He should always
make his evening meal nutritious
but light, and if it proves to have:
been too light supplement it with a

the evening.
Much sleeplessness is only a form
of indigestion. When a person falls
asleep quickly, but wakes in an hour
or so unmistakably suffering from
undigested food, he should rise and
slowly drink a cup of hot water in
which a quarter of a teaspoonful of
bicarbonate of soda has been dissolved.
Most poor sleepers are of nervous
temperament and should practice self
control. They should not take the
frets and annoyances of the day to'
bed with them. To go to bed angry!
is the worst of all.
