Aim of a Colorado Potato Grower Who
Advocates Seed Selection.
OF all the factors in potato growing
selection of seed is by far the most
important Some twelve years ago a
farmer, e. H. Grub of Carbondale,
Colo, undertook to improve and de-
velop a potato along the same lines
that he follows in improving his Shrop-
shire sheep and Shorthorn cattle, using
the best method of selection and giving
the seed plat the best possible cultiva-
ton and irrigation in order to obtain
uniformity of product. Since that time
he has been selecting seed potatoes of
the size and type which he wants to
produce. AS twelve ounce potato is
about ideal in size. seed potatoes of
