When to Select Seed Potatoes.

The best time to select seed potatoes is
when they are dug. As soon as they are
brought to the surface and lie spread on
the ground the best can be selected with
less difficulty than at any other time
Those that are perfectly matured and Of
of good shape, having the marked charao
teristics of the variety and average size,
should be selected for seed in preference
to those of any other qualities. They
should then be placed in boxes or barre
and kept where they will not be injured
by freezing or By warmth. If seed pota-
toes are saved in this manner for few
years in succession, we have no doubt a
decided Improvement will be observed n
the yield as well as in the quality.
