But they should be cut fine. A good plan is to have a trough or sicut box in which, after washing, the potatoes can be cut with a common spade; but a better plan is to take an old spade or hoe or firo-shcvel, and by attaching a stout short handle, provide an implement ex pressly for the purpose and save the wear and tear and rust of the spade. As a general thing, says a sensible wri ter, all of our farm tools are too heavy. Generally speaking, the farim wagon that will bear up uinder a ton %eight with case is plenty heavy enough for all practical purposes to which a farm wagon should be put. If You want to haul two tons It is for better and cheaper in the end to make two loads of it. The saving in horse flesh anid feed, will, In a few years, amount to enough to buy a new oiio and have sonie thing left for profit. It you are about or dering a new wagon have it ma(Ie light and of tle best material find you will nev 'r regret it. C. 11.
