Mr. Mustard here trivet a vt- i.
esting outline of the 10 varieties he
considers best adapted for the growers
as a commercial potato in the North
west. The principal market for the irrigat
ed potato of Central Oregon has been
in Oklahoma, Texas and to some ex
tent in San Francicso. A study has
been made of these markets nH nni,.
toes selected that meet the require
ments of these disticts. A white, uni
form sized tuber, ranging in size from
6 to 10 ounces, is best suited to meet
the demand of these localities. It is
also necessary to have a potato of a
good keeping quality, as it ie difficult
to keep potatoes, especially in t,.o.
and Oklahoma. .
These facts, combined w-lh th -n
and climatic conditions of Central Ore
gon, are the real things that enter
into the selection of varieties adapted
to the region.
All of the varieties thrm-r, t- .
Jiibit have been given the most severe

Faithfulness to Be Rewarded.
"After all, the ordinary mut. without
pride of ancestry, whose hand is
against every dogcatcher and every
dogcatcher's hand against him. and
who is beloved of only his kid master,
is something more than a joke." de

while there will be no discounting the
comedy in the Mut Dog show, seri
ously, the faithful and unhonored mut

cause he does love his master and is
loved by his master, and is just as
faithful, even unto death, as the highest-bred
dog in the most fashionable
kennels.
"It is to honor him that the Mut Dog
Show is being held."
