The Daily Dispatch: July 25, 1861., [Electronic resource], Irish potatoes (search)
op. from which he used as late as Christmas — Early in January and not until then, he had the potatoes remaining in the ground taken up and put in a dry place. His reason for taking them up was that if they remained they would sprout prematurely and be killed by cold weather. At the usual time he planted the seed thus gathered, and raised as good a crop and as large potatoes as any of his neighbors raised. This process is worth trying, and we have thought it our duty to describe it to our readers. They will remember that the ground where the spring crop was planted must be ploughed about the first of August, and the potatoes that come up must be cultivated as usual; then about the first of January take up all that can be found and put them away in a dry place for planing in the spring. We think seed can be saved in this way. The war and the blockade will learn the Southern people more than they ever knew before, and will make them more self-reliant.-- Cahaba (Ala.) Gazette.
