POTATO GROWERS ASSOCIATION
Organization Has Seventy Members
and is Flourishing.

The Aberdeen Potato Growers Asso-
citation, with membership of seventy
and still growing, is destined to become
a factor of no little Importance. Coop
Grafton is the watchword of success.
Uniformity of product and high
standard of quality are essential in ere
ating and maintaining a demand for an
article, and organization is the only
method by which to secure this result.
After March 20 the cost of member
ship will be advanced from 81 to $40,
so that all who desire to join the asso-
citation. will find it desirable to do so at
once.
Two carloads of seed potatoes have
been purchased and the association is
seeking a third. The variety selected
for planting is Carmen No. 8. The
most exacting care is to be used in
grading, so that perfect product, one
which will create demand for more OF
the same kind, will reach the market.
The association held an enthusiastic
meeting at Aberdeen Wednesday.

later or disked up In the spring. They
are often sown In cornfields during the
last cultivation to keep the weeds
down and to add nitrogen to the soil
Because of the fact that other crops
make so much better growth after the
field has grown a legume for a year or
so 1t is important that crop of clover
or some other legume be grown occa-
sionally. If plan of rotation is ar
ranged so that the fields are regularly
changed from one crop to, another, so
much the better 1t has been found
that when any crop is grown year aft
er year on the same land the yields will
grow less. The particular kinds of
food that certain crop requires grows
scarcer, and weeds and insects become
more numerous. II another kind of
plant is substituted, other elements of
plant food will be drawn upon, the in
sects will be starved out and the chang
ed methods of soil treatment will dis
courage the weeds
Plants vary greatly in their ability to
get food from the soil. Such crops as
rye and buckwheat are strong feeders
and are able to obtain food from a soil
on which more tender plants would
starve. Some plants use much more
humus than others. Crops like corn
that are cultivated frequently deplete
the humus supply rapidly, since the
constant stirring of the soil hastens de-
cay. Oats, on the other hand, take
comparatively little humus from the
soil.
These differences may be largely
equalized by consistent system of ro-
tation. In planning rotations the aim
should be to so distribute the crops
that they will be best adapted to the
condition In which the soil was left by
the preceding crop. The starting point
Of every rotation should be clover or
some other legume The length of time
that a neld should be left in to such
crop depends largely on local condi-
