The potato, however, is not so sensitive with respect to soil as are some other crops. Under suitable conditions a satisfactory crop may also be grown on a fairly light sandy soil and a medium heavy' clay soil, provided the heavy soil is well drained and the light soil has a good moisture supply. Muck or peat soils are also satisfactory if properly drained and well supplied with available plant food. A reasonably good crop may be expected from any soil outside of blowsand and heavy clay, provided the climatic conditions are favorable and the soil is well supply ed with organic matter and available plant food.
