The daU gathered in this survey will be used in the compilation of a booklet descriptive of Oregon's resourcps. Decision to undertake the survey was reacnea auer reports oy directors in charge of the various departments of the State Chamber showed that Oregon was a state has not sufficient data available setting forth in exact terms what the various districts btve to offer to prospective settlers and investors. Secretary George Quayle was in structed to ret in touch immediately ith all state commissions and depart ments, the Oregon Agricultural Col lege and Experimental Station, the Oregon Bureau of Mines and all other iourees of authentic information. Tbese organizations and departments will be asked to stste to what extent they can assist an undertaking of this kind. "We propose to brine Oregon on to dste in a statistical way," said "Bill" Hanley, of Burns, president of the State Chamber. "Before we can con tinue the development plans we have aoder way, it is necessary that we know exactly wst tbe state has to offer to tbe investor and settler. Tbe preliminary work in this survey will be done through correspondence. La ter, our field man will secure final snd complete data on every district of the state through personal investigation." NOTES TO THE POTATO GROWER (By Gordon G. Brown) The writer is in receipt of Oregon Experiment Station Circular 25, by rrolessor Ueorge K. llyslop, entitled, Seed Potato Improvement." A brief summary of tbe suggestions offered there are given in these columns. Those who wish a more complete de scription of the subject can write for the above named circular. ine need ror seed-potato improve ment is very evident. Oregon stands very low in point of yields. Its aver age is only 118 bushels to the acre as compared with 210 bushels for Maine, a pioneer potato growing station. The most potent factors which mav influence small yields are too many varieties, unproductive bills, poor stands ana not enough plant food or moisture. The variety question in Hood River is pretty well standard ized. It can be said, however, that many of our best patches have alto gether too many unproductive hills. This is due to the planting of run-out and diseased seed, such need producing plants that die early and yield poorly. the planting of rough, pointed. crooked or misshapen tubers or little ones, usually mean diseased plants. Those potatoes are often associated with wilt and little ones are often small because of wilt or mosaic. Use only smooth, symmetrical, disease-free tubers of market size. The character of planting has something to do with poor stands. It is needless to say that fsulty planting makes thin stands. Furthermore the use of excessively small seed pieces is bad. However, pieces at least one and one-half to two ounces or larger in size should be used. The blossom-end piece of a potato should never be Bplit in cutting. Coat ing the cut surfaces of the seed with landplaster helps to prevent rotting of seed pieces and better stands result. As a general rule the matter of soil fertility and moisture requirements are adequately met under Hood River conditions. It is a generally accepted rule, that uniformity of moisture throughout the growing season is one of the greatest factors in promoting continuous growth and uniformity of seed. Where a hit or miss policy is applied and the fields are alternately excessively wet or dry good results cannot be obtained. Last week the writer dealt with the soil fertility problem as related to this crop and no further reference will be made to the subject here. 1 he writer also urged the practica bility of growing seed that will be of such high character as to pass the cer tification test. This is setting a high standard and is well worth striving for. This calls for special care and ingenuity and growers cannot expect to jump into this work with a 100 per cent success the first year. It takes time and study to get best results. No one should start growing seed potatoes without a definite idea of staying with the game sufficiently long to establish a reputation and improve bis stock. Only in this way can suc cess be obtained. The following sug gestions are offered for tbe improve ment of the seed : First of all, sort the seed. Misshap en, pointed, crooked and little potatoes should be eliminated. Ubo only smooth, symmetrical potatoes of medium size that are well filled out at both ends, especially the stem end. Needless to say, tbe using of small culls sorted out of market potatoes is a bad practice, It is furthermore suggested that critical examination of the stem-end of the potato be made for any discolora tion. A brown fibrous discoloration spreading out from tbe base of the stem of tbe potato and about one eighth of an inch under the skin may be the result of several causes, includ ing chilling and disease. Badly chilled seed has been shown to be very low in vitality and results in poor yields Potatoes thoroughly chilled in the soil before digging, or afterward in stor age usually shows discoloration about one-eighth of an inch under the skin and extending in thin black layers from tbe stem-end to the bloscom-end of the tuber. "The general presence of the black line rather than the light er colored one, principally near the stem-end, when accompanied by lack of crispness and by a sweetish taste in the tuber," says Prof, llyslop, "are indicative of chilling injury. Such po tatoes while not diseased are not good seed. Furthermore, potatoes discol ored from wilt or other causes should be eliminated. It is highly important that seed-po tstoes be treated with corrosive sub limate to control scab. This may be secured at the drug store. About one onuce is required for each three to five bushels of potatoes treated. A stock solution of corrosive sublimate is pre pared by dissolving it in a wooden or earthen container. Do not use a me tallic contanier. A gallon of hot water for each four ounces of corrosive sub limate should be used. When thor oughly dissolved, one gallon of this solution should be put into a wooden container or barrel for each 29 gallons of water used. This makes a standard strength, four ounces to 30 gallons The clean, cut potatoes are now treated loose in this solution for one and one half to two hours unless the sprouts hsve started, in which case treatment should not extend over one hour. Af ter each treatment, one pint of the stock solution should be added to the barrel for each 4 bushels of potatoes treated two hours. J his is for the pur pose of keeping the strength undiluted. rresniy cut seen wnue sun wei should be shoveled over with land plaster as this coats or harden the cut surface. Owing to the fact that dis ease remains in trie soil it is recom mended that planting be done on new land in rotation. It has been demonstrated that the blossom-end of the potato is the best seed piece. Do not split the blossom- end in cutting seed-potatoes as this impairs the vigor of potato seed pieces. It should not be cut fewer than two eyes; more are better, the pieces should weigh not under one and one half to two ounces. Be thorough in plsnting. Use only a machine that will plant tbe pieces regularly. See that it plants one piece in every hill and only one piece in every hill, other wise plant by hand.
