THE SEED POTATO PUZZLE.

Experience Of myself and others has
been that whole tube-s, with similar cul.

potatoes than cut sections. The finest
lot of potatoes ever saw was grown on
deep, ricl meadow soil, with the old
grass sod recently plowed down, and
MANFRED in the rows. Whole tubers were
used for seed, and these were selected
from the entire crop of the previous
year. As this system had been followed
for several successive seasons, always Sc
Letting the largest and most perfectly
formed specimens, the crops gradually
became more regular in form. 1t may be
all right from scientific standpoint; a
tuber is nothing more than an
underground stem. so that cut

so it has with my notions of growing the
