j To IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF
7 SEED POTATOES.
3 Watson S. Woodruff. of Orange, has
pointed out to the Food Department
of the Statc Council of Defense that.
to incrcaec Connecticut‘s potato crop
next year involves three important,
steps in the seed potato situation. in
the. first place. Mr. \Voodruff says small ?
farmers, victory gardeners. and other!
planters who are presumably not ex-l
-pert potato growers. should be urgcdf
to stick to >tandard varleties such as
Green Mountains for a late crop. The;
point is that small operators should;
not attempt to PJtDPl’llllr'dll with ne'wl
and untried varieties; the operation"
is too expensive and too uncertain. t
More important still is the question i‘
of bringing into the state only first-f
class scan. it is believed, however.)
that this can be accomplished by that
cooperation of seed potato dealers.i
who will be urged to demand from:
Maine growers seed potatoes that con'1
form to the United States grade No. 1. t
which means that such potatoes are
virtually guaranteed true to variety.j
free from disease, and of suitable size
for planting. Of course. the public Willi
appreciate the fact that seed potatoes,
of this quality are worth more than to:
bie stock, but good seed are so im-
portant a factor in the production of at
crop that no one will hesitate to pay a;
NEW HAVEN To SOUTH NORWALK little premium for first-class seed.
