I » e p a rt m s n t of The treatment of seed potatoes with formaldehyde or with corrosive sub­ limate has been recommeudrtl for many years as a preventive of scab and other diseases carried on the tu­ bers.

Common scab Is favored by a neutral or slightly al­ kaline soil, and seldom gives trouble In acid soils. It Is therefore Increased by liming and by fresh stable manure, wood ashes, and alkaline fertilizers, such as nitrate of soda and ground bone, while add phosphate and sul­ phate of ammonia tend to diminish scab. Rhlzoctonia occurs to some extent in nearly all soils, but appears to at­ tack potatoes most when the condi­ tions are unfavorable to the best de­ velopment of the potato plant.

It Is more effec live than formaldehyde, particularly against rhlzoctonia and powdery scab Do not use the same solution more than three times, as the strength diminishes with each lot of potatoes soaked. To treat large quantities, set sev­ eral barrels on a slightly elevated plat­ form. Fit a plug In a hole In the bot­ tom of each barrel, fill with potatoes, cover with solution, let stand two hours, draw off solution, and pour Into another barrel. Increase the number of barrels In proportion to the quan tlty to be treated. Another method Is to use a large wooden vat or trough.

Seed potatoes may be treated sev­ eral weeks before planting, provided they are not reinfected by storing In old containers or storage bins.
