Potatoes: Now that the potato harvest is
unuer way, growers should be planning to
select their seed for next year. The im
provement of the potato by selection is a
field of endeavor in which every ghov.cr in
terested in the problem of increased pro
duction per acre can engage. &s one ob
serves in digging potatoes, there are many
variations—such as-“ the size and shape of
the tuber and the number produced per plunl
Some plants may produce two or three large
tubers—othors the same number of large
tubers but with a half dozen or moro small
on-. £--Y,hile still others may be found pro
ducing six to ten or more medium-sized
merchantable tubers with practically no
small ones. It is plainly evident that
the progeny of such plants as those last'
described are more desirable than the oth
er two. In like mariner it is conceivable
th ;t certain variations may occur in the
plant itself. Such variations may bo dis
ease resistance, greater vigor, greater
ad-.1'taolllty to peculiar environmental con
dlaions of soil and climate.,. Curly maturlt
etc. Growers keeping''in min’d these vari
ations can look forrthem in selecting their
next year’s seed crop and be assured of
greater ycild per acre. /
