tending completely outnumbered the
Boardman folks. There Is nothing finer
ror tno boys ana gins tnau tne ciud
work, and the child who has a pig, a
lamb, a turkey or poultry to raise, to
leea am care ror is going to get great
returns not merely In a monetary way
but educationally, physically; he gains
self-reliance, he gains knowledge of
practical value, but the boy or girl
who Is plodding along without encour
aeernent or interest at home has an un-
hiil pull and surely the parents should
be Interested enough In the children's
work to give them assistance and en
couragement. The Irrigon boys' band
played and they were line, the speakers
all gave interesting talks. Mr. Allen
of Corvallls, en assistant club leader,

the value of club work to the boys and
girlH and urged parents to assist in
every way.

Marschat with Miss Henry at the piano,
and the second consisting of C. S.'Cal

Henry, each sang beautifully. Rev.

ciduier sermon.
Treatment of Potatoes
For Seed in This County
By C. W. SMITH, County Agent.
To make a profit from growing
potatoes on the hill lands of Mor
row county, one must follow prac
tices that will give him the largest
yield possible. First of all after de
ciding to plant potatoes one should
secure seed free from fungus dis
eases or the yield will be material
ly decreased from this reason alone
and as pure seed, free from disease
can be secured for very little more
than ordinary field rum potatoes,
one should always take pains to se
cure disease free seed. However,
diseases affecting potatoes may be
in the ground at the time of plant
ing and one may have diseased po
tatoes if they sow certified seed.
Seed potato treatment for the pre
vention of disease is recommended
by all authorities on potato grow
ing, and the best and most common
practice of treating seed In small
quantities is to use the corrosive
sublimate treatment. This is done
by dissolving four ounces of corro
sive sublimate in one gallon of hot
water. This is then added to 29
gallons of water and four sacks of
uncut potatoes are soaked one hour,
1 hours, 1 hours and two hours.
TlM treatment should be done in a
wooden container only as the cor
rosive sublimate corrodes metal,
and the strength of the solution is
reduced. Potatoes should be treat
ed for 8 to 12 days before planting
and should be allowed to drain and
dry after treating. When possible
bulk treating should be practiced
as the sacks take up the strength
of the solution and the effectiveness
of the treatment is lost to some ex
tent. When using corrosive subli
mate care should be used in keeping
it away from livestock and irre
sponsible persons as it is a deadly
poison and disastrous results may
be experienced.
Freshly cut potato seed pieces are
best kept in a cool, moist place until
planted. If exposed to the direct
rays of the sun Injury results which
prevents development after plant
ing. The failure of many Oregon
farmers to obtain good stands of
potatoes has led to a series of tests
at the O. A. C. It was found that
freshly cut seed pieces exposed to
direct sunlight for three hours be
fore planting produced a 50 per cent
stand and a 60 per cent yield. Nor
mal production was obtained from
several lots of seed cut two days be
fore planting but protected from
sunlight. When a potato is cut, a
protective skin is formed over the
cut surface. In strong sunlight the
seed pieces dry out rapidly prevent
ing the formation of this covering
and permitting organisms to enter
and destroy the seed after planting.
The protective layer Is readily form
ed in a moist atmosphere. When
seed pieces are cut several days be
fore planting it is advisable to store
crates or spread out In a thin layer
on the storage floor when the at
mosphere is moist and turned once
during the first twenty-four hours.
The use of absorbants such as land
plaster and flowers of sulphur as
sists in the drying process and helps
to heal the new cut to a very great
extent
There are any number of so called
virus potato diseases such as Mo
saic for which no treatment or pre
vention except clean seed selection
have been worked out. Consequent
ly one should always secure seed
from clean stock, treat at least
eight days before planting, select
ground where potatoes have not
been grown for at least four years
and cover tb,e potatoes immediately
after they are placed in the furrows.

Millions of
Model T Fords
are s
till i
in
active service
FOR nearly twenty years, the Model T Ford led the motor
industry and it still is used by more people than any other
automobile. More than eight million Model T Fords are in
active service today an indication of their sturdy worth,
reliability and economy.
Because of the tremendous investment which people
have in these cars and because so many of them will be
driven for two, three, and even five more years, the Ford
Motor Company will continue to make replacement parts
until, as Henry Ford himself says, "the last Model T is
pS the road."
For the Ford Motor Company has always believed that
its full duty consists not only in making a good automobile
at a low price, but also in keeping it running efficiently for
you as long as possible at a minimum of expense.
No matter where you live, therefore, you can still buy
Model T Ford parts with the same assurance as formerly,
knowing that they will give you the kind of service you
have a right to expect, and at the same time protect the
money you have invested in your car.
All Ford replacement parts, as you may know, are made
of the same materials and in the same way as those from
which your car was originally assembled, and are low in
price because of the established Ford policy.
So that you may get the greatest use from your Model T
Ford over the longest period cf time, we suggest that you
take the car to the nearest Ford dealer and have him esti
mate on the cost of any replacement parts which may be
necessary. You may find that a very small expenditure
will maintain the value of your car and will be the means
of giving you thousands of miles of additional service.
