Potatoes on Dry Ranches Method by S W Scott near Reed’s Station
The California Agriculturist reports S W Scott, nine miles from Marysville, grows all the family potatoes on dry land for six years. He lays them on the surface in fall, covers 12 to 15 inches with straw, and harvests with no further care. Plants a patch several square rods wide for best results, as broader surface reduces heat and drought effects.

Farmer Market built by farmers to end beef trade woes
The Philadelphia Practical Farmer recalls farmers banding together years ago to counter city ordinances affecting beef and mutton sales.
