But such results these not obtained by ordi-

the application of and ingenious processes of the

New Treatment for Potatoes
PUT this is only one of many ideas in farming
- Even the humble spud lis treated by advanced
methods In some irrigated districts of Colorado
potatoes raised more scientifically than anywhere
else In the world and their quality is SO superior
that they command extraordinary prices
The scientific Colorado potato is never allowed to
come into direct contact with water Between each

into the hills, reaches only the rootlets, through

has, for storage purposes, "a big hole in the

An intensive system not less interesting is applied
to the culture of tomatoes the most important fea
ture being process called stalking which consists in
reducing each plant to single stem and tying it to
stick, that the vine may grow vertically. In this
way all excess growth of vine is avoided which other

is kept off the ground, and therefore clean while
ripening more evenly. But this is not all. At the
fourth or fifth hand above the ground tomatoes
grow in little bunches called hands, intervals along
the Stem each plant is cut off. By this means all its
available nourishment concentrated in the produc
tion of few fruits which rpen very early and attain
great size The grower does not want big crop
