All the bayers for the American market. however, agree in saying that they could give from fivé to ten cents per bushel higher price for our potatoes if they could get cargoes that would compare favor, ably with the potatoes grown {in Maine and Nova Sevtia; she it can readily be computed what an immense advantage it would be to the people of this Island if this higher price could be secured. “The great objection our farmers have to. groWing the kind of potato that the inhabitants ofthe cities of the East- ern States will buy most readily, is mainly

Such apetato, we believe has been introduced during the past year or so, and in Burpee’s Empire State Potato the requirements of a first class main crop potato This potato was first grown by Mr. E, L. Coy, of Washington Co., New York, a first class authority on potatoes, who says: ‘“This remarkable new potato No. 99 is It was from the only seed ball that { have yet succeeded in finding on the White Elephant.” Mr. Coy, writing on Oct. 17, 1884, says: “‘Another years exper- ience with the new seciling potato ‘No. 99,’ hereafter to be knuwn as Burpee’s Empire State, in comparison with about sixty other varieties, convinces me that too much has not and cannot be said in its favor. To those in search of a strictly first class table potato, this new seedling presents stronger claims than any variety of which Ihave any know- ledge. It has proved itself to be delicate and rich in flavor, perfectly free from rot; is never hollow; cooks evenly through without any coarseness;yields enormously and is easily dug. Infact, | confidently believe that this new variety will fully supply the long felt need of a'rcally good white cooking potato. Last spring | decided to abide by the judgment of potatc experts before saying anything more on my own responsibility regarding its merits. With this ead in view I sent about fifty tubers to as many practical’ potato growers, with the request that they test it throughly and give me their full opinion of its merits, poth as to quality and productiveness.

have received reports, as requested,from near- ly all, and with a single exception they are unanimous in the opinion that it is wonder- fully productive, as well as a floury and delicately flavored variety. Single tubers cut to single eyes have yielded from 100 to 138 pounds,” Again in 1885 Mr, Coy says: *‘An- other years experienc: has more than confirm- ed my previous opinion that { have at last originated the most valuable variety of potato The past sea-

careful tests in competition with the most noted and highly landed varieties in cultiva- results. It has more than equalled my sanguine anticipa- tions. My life long endeavors to produce & perfect potato for general purposes have been fully realized.” In the spring of 1885 Mrs. H. L. Macdonald of Cardigan Bridge noticed the advertisement

for that year, and sent for a half bushel, which was duly received. The writer, having obtained fifteen pounds of them, planted thera in ordinary land, alongside of McIntyre potatoes and had ten bushels of splendid large tubers. Others who obtained them had Since then each year has proved the truthfulness of Mr. Coy’s state

ments regarding this potato, and on the 25th of July, this year, some of those grown in 1886, that were not planted, were as good, as sound, and cooked as white and mealy as they did when dug. This potato is nov. en early kind. It ripens during the first week of Octo- ber, and, in consequence, is ready to dig at the usual time. In shape the Empire State potato is oblong, with eyes distributed all over it, and cuts to great advantage for planting. We understand that about twenty-five acres are planted this year in different sections of | the Island, acd we believe that an effort will | be made to introduce them all over the Prov- | ince. Judging from the fields we have seen, | the yield this year will be very large—not less

than 300 bushels to the acre—that is if no un-

forseen calamity overtakes the crop, although

no extra manure was used on the land. The

introduction of this first-class potato is of the

greatest importance to all classes of the com- munity, as they are calculated to supply a want

“The MacDonaldites.”

SIR, My attention was directed the other day to an extract from the corres pondent of the Moncton Times, entitled ‘+ Ay Others See Us,” iu your issue of the 29th ult., veferring to what the writer thereof called ** one of the religious sects of the Island —the MacDonaldites.”

The writer attempted to describ2 what he witnessed on the sacrament.1 at DeSable on the 17th inst. He ‘At the close of the minister's address a lady prayed in Gaelic, and during the singing and playing, (the italics are mine) several of the members began a violent clapping of hands, shouting, moaning and swaying of the body,” ete.

What he means by the lady prayirg in Gaelic, and the playing, 1 do not under- stand, but I gwould advise the write and others of that ik to give heed to that wise old doctor of the law, Gamaliel, when he said; ‘‘ Refrain from these men, and let them alone, for if this counsel or this work be of men it will come to naught, but if it be of God ye cannot overthrow it lest haply ye befound even to fight against God.”
