At digging time q Dowden or
Brown digger is used. Usually
four pickers follow the digger. In
every field we saw a Thompson
sOrter on runners, drawn along
the row, and one man sorts and
sacks in the field as fast as the
pickers can dump them into the
sorter. The sacks are then gath
cred up and hauled to market, if
the price warrants. Or they are
hauled to monster caves W root
houses for storage until the price
warrants their moving. These
caves are found on every farm
and are a necessity to every man
who raises potatoes, onions Or
cabbage. They are 32xl00 feet
and dug 3 to ( feet deep in the
ground and have a roof s to 10
feet high. They are covered with
pine poles, hay and dirt and have
large double doors at each end and
a drive way 10 feet in width thro
the center. On each side are bins
for potatoes and onions, with
spouts leading from the lower edge
of roof. Wagons are driven thro
these caves the entire length for
loading or unloading potatoes. The
incline is very slight. The capac-
ity is 5000 to 10000 sacks Or 49,
600 to $4,000 bushels. They are
made of large posts for uprights,
ties and braces, and pine poles for
top and roof. The cost varies from
5000 to 800, depending upon the
work hired done. This is one
feature OF the potato business to
which we wish to call the especial
attention Of the sand hills grower
the absolute necessity Of build
ing these large caves or storage
houses for the convenient and
proper handlingof the years crop.
Every sand hills potato grower
ought to have cave of this char
acter. He cannot afford to be
without it.
Then a potato sorter is also a
necessity if we want cur potatoes
to 90 onto the market and COM
mand the price their high quality
merits. Quality rather than guam
tity should be the mark to which
the sand hills grower constantly
strives to attain. 1t is in quality
where We must excel and quality
will in time bring its reward Of
high price and constant demand.
No potatoes are shipped from
Greeley in bulk, all are sacked. 1t
is not uncommon to find 5000 to
10000 sacks stored in one cave, all
Of one mans raising, 10000 to
$4,000 bushels. Most of the
Greeley potatoes are shipped south
into Texas.
They import new seed every
year. Most of this seed comes
from Wisconsin and Minnesota,
though they obtain considerable
from the Divide" in Colorado.
They rotate their crops as follows:
Two or three years in potatoes,
followed by s. gar beets one year,
then SOW to alfalfa with wheat and
they get a good crop of wheat and
light crop Of alfalfa the first
year. Continued in alfalfa two
years more and then pillow up and
