Much better results will
be had from manure put on the
field or garden this time of year
if it is well d^ccd in before p lo w ­

ing manure with the soil, it
means rapid decay and maximum
results.
L and P laster
Land plaster is not a fertiliser,
. is a stimulant and, if rightly
used, is a valuable aid in crop
production. It should only be
used in connection with legu­
minous crops which are within
themselves soil builders, or it
m ay be used with other crops
where manure has been applied
ot will be applied with thegrow -
’ ing of the ncxtcrop. Continuous
stimulation w ithout rest or
nourishment effects the soil the
same as i t does the horse. Fifty
pounds per acre is the amount
recommended on
leguminous
crops and should be applied be­
tween now and April 15.

ing time,
The producer of successful crops
will not only g ro w well selected
strains of suitable varieties but
he must (this is a most emphatic
must) have clean soil to start
with. Soil that grew potatoes
last year is ¿in general not fit to
g ro w the best kind of a crop this
year on account of the multi­
plication of potato parasites.
Tbe farmer must be made 19
understand this fact before Ore­
gon can have a potato industry
we can be proud of.
Next, the seed that goes into
the ground must be clean seed.
If it is not disease free the chances
are strong for a poor stand,
small crop, little potatoes, uAlt,
scab, blight, tot and other
troubles, all of which are com­
mon here, and which aecount_ in
large measure tor tbe present
* poor condition of the annual
potato crops in many sections.
If possible seed should be secured
from a field that raised a clean
crop. Even this seed should for
safety be given the corrosive sub­
limate treatment with a "one to
one thousand" solution. If seed
from an absolutely dean crop
cannot be secured get the clean­
est selected seed from the best
crop you can and treat h a s
