Prompt Service Will Be Given Out of Town Orders - -RKAD THE WANT ADS- FINDING WHY POTATOES RUN OUT AND ITS PREVENTION Ii Aim of Potato Growers of the Wes ton Mountain District. Finding why potatoes run out and preventing their doing so is the aim of the Umatilla county potato grow, ere of the Weston Mountain district, says L. R. Jackson, farm crop spec ialist of the 0 A. C. extension ser vice. "Here Is a group of growers who go through tholr fields several times during the summer, carefully rogue ing all diseases and off-style plants," sayg Mr. Jackson. "Some of these ynen will select their seed for the following year." . A profitable potato seed trade for. <merly existed with California and still exists to some extent, but last year the delta region around Stock- ton which grows 27000 acres of po tatoes, obtained only enough from Washington and Oregon for about 6000 aares. Like conditions prevail In the Yakima valley In Washing- Ion. Formerly that district Import ed much of its seed from Oregon, but now except for output of the West on Mountain region but very little goes there from this state? This loss of the seed business by Oregon growers was due In part to the lack of any organized efforts to build up and supply year after year seed of good dependable si rain. The same is true of seed for Oregon plantings. Yields have not been Increasing in this state as in some ether places and the total acreage of potatoes In Western Oregon has been declining. Thia lend to the certification of seeds. But this service was no soon er established but it was found more difficult to grow certified seed than had been expected. A whole flock of new diseases termed "virus" dis eases was discovered. They spread so fast from plant to plant in the fields that practically no disease free seed existed. Comparatively few growers could or would take the time during the busy season to rogue their fields thoroughly a«* get them free enough of these diseases to be passed as certified s,-d by th Inspec tor. Lest year th- pi tato certification board at the agricultural college in cluded a new grade of seed to be known as standard seed This Is to Includo such seed lota as are very good for the uso of commercial grow, ers but not good enough to go as certified.
