AT THE STORE OF OSCAR OTTO Corvallte. Ore., Not.8 (Specjal) Although the vital factors of good eed potato! are tew and easily learn ed, uot many persons know and prac tice these essentials in selecting their potatoes for seed or tor exhibition, report the O. A. C. specialist who has been called upon to judge potatoes at numerous Oregon fairs and potatoes shows. The leading points of good quali ties in potatoes are as follows: True to name, true to type, made mature, sound without bruises or ca vities, uniform in size, medium eize tor the variety with shallow eyes and smooth skin, free from disease and insect injuries, firm and sound. Experienced judges, score potatoes in any competion on a Tory definite basis, the most important items of which are the foregoing. Lots of po tatoes that come most nearly up to these standards, are the lots that will win in competition. Since commercial potatoes have ap proximately the' dualities of the ex hibition lots, it will be seen that an effort should be made to grow such potatoes. They are the best for the irade because they- are the best in competitive exhibits, and in order to grow them in commercial lots it is necessary to select seed' having the same general characteristics. While the main point in the seed potatoes should be the same as in the best exhibits it would be impossible to secure them altogether for the rea son that the exhibit stock, is selected from the entire amount of potatoes ?rown whereas the seed .is selected hill by hill. Of course it Is hot feasi ble to get a hill of potatoes as nearly perfect as a single potato, but this should be the standard and the ideal. The hills which bear largely of pota toes approximating the exhibit type is the hill to select and plant from. Here again the value of this will be seen when it comes to putting the crop of pototoes on the market. . The dealer will look to see whether the Burbanks are realy Burbanks or something, else or a mixture of two 3r three varitles. They will also know the general characteristics of the potato and will examine to see it the lot generally corresponds to the proper type. They will see- that the potatoes are sufficiently matured to keep well, and are sound without bruises, cavities or disease spot. They will see if the potatoes are of medium size for the variety and free from knobs, hollow places, deep eyes and other Indications of inferiority causing waste in preparing them for food. Not one single speck of disease should be allowed on any of the sel ected tubers, for. few such spots will disqualify the whole lot in an ex hibit and in planting will spread the disease in the next year's crop. Scab is easily seen and recognized. Rhy zoctonla looks somewhat like a spot of black earth that cannot be wash ed from the potato, making black circles near the end that can be seen on the outside only from the closest observation but is rather plain when the notato is cut open. Dissapointment for the exhibitor the grower is almost sure to come to the one who fails to observe these simple rules. SOME TOBACCO FOR CI6- !!II!iJULV30Trii907 ,WjhstonSaum.MC.USA.
