O utlook:—F o r y ea rs th is com m unity

was not verg big, nor th e tu b e rs very
large, but th e tu b e rs seem s to be m ore
uniform in size and sm oother th an in
previous years. T his is accounted for
by the fact, th a t farm ers a re selecting
th e ir seed m ore carefu lly or buying
b etter seed stock th a n form erly
W hat p ro p er seed selection w ill do
w as d em o n strated on Rodlun b ro th e rs ’
farm . Louis Rodlun, who has ch arg e
of th e potatoes, got some local seed,
w hich h ereto fo re w as considered well
selected stock. But as an experim ent
he also invested in some of Roland
Shedeen’s prize potatoes, w hich all
but passed certification th e previous
year. T he difference betw een th e two
s tra in s w as q u ite strik in g , and In fa ­
vor of th e Shedeen seed, w hich had
not only m ore and la rg e r tu b ers, but
also of m ore u niform size, sm oother
and th e sta n d w as m uch b etter. The
I Rodluns a re convinced beyond
| doubt, th a t good seed pays well.
Crops w ere not very good, and the
I prices offered a re not in pro p o rtio n to
I w hat it costs to live. Many farm ers
have told th e w riter, th a t th ey would
feel contented. If they broke even; but
as it is, ends can n o t be m ade to m eet

Many ranchers in this section are using Pacific Stumping,
the du Pont explosive, for clearing their stump land for
profitable crops. Pacific Stumping does the job at lower
expense and does it right. Pacific Stumping gives you
one-half more sticks per dollar— about the same strength,
stick for stick, as any standard stumping powder. It is
non-freezing and won’t give you a headache from handling.
We carry complete stocks of Pacific Stumping and other
du Pont dynamites— recognized as standard wherever
explosives are used. Let us estimate on the cost of clear­
ing some of your stump land.
