Other notes and remarks; Mr. Stewart used some small seed potatoes but does not recommend this as good farm practice. Where some small seed is used, £e plants all the small tubers on one side of the field and the large tubers on the other side, selecting seed for the next season from the large potatoes. Beans and hay competed with potatoes for attention, beans at cultivating and hay at harvest. lOt 63 Exposure of field Horthern Distance to market or shipping point 4 miles Where shipped?* Sold to dealer on track* notation Beans, potatoes, oats, wheat, hay 2 years.
