- When farmers in our district plant potatoes they cultivate the land well and when it is fine, they drill it and manure it well and then the potatoes are dropped.
Sulphur is sown in and when that is done the drills are closed.
The people in olden times were very good at cutting the seed for planting. Some of the poorer people who had no horses did all their work with spades and shovels and had as good potatoes as the others. They always sunk them and moulded them and kept them very clean. The people in old times never sprayed their potatoes. In the year 1846 there came a blight on them and caused a dreadful famine throughout the country. The people in olden times always dug their potatoes with spades.
At the present time diggers are mostly used in our district.- Bailitheoir
