KEEP SEED POTATOES COOL
Farmers Should Endeavor to Have
Temperature for Tubers at
About SO Degrees.

(By VIM. H. UNDERWOOD, Illinois)
Potatoes intended for seed should
be kept hard and plump during the
winter, and this can be done only by
keeping them SO cool that they will
not sprout
When potatoes sprout they take
part of the starch that is stored up
in them and manufacture it into living
cells. This energy is all wasted for
the sprouts have to be pulled off.
Some farmers make it a point to
"sprout" their potatoes once or twice
during the winter, this being done to
prevent their growing. But the amount
of energy thus lost is considerable
and the loss increases as the winter
draws to a close.
| raise potatoes in large quantities,
and each year place them in cold
storage. | prefer to pay the expense
of the storage and be sure that they
are kept in perfectly plump state.
rather than to keep them in a room
with a high temperature, as is done
by some.
In the spring the potatoes come out
Of the cold storage house in perfect
condition, and it takes but a few
weeks for them to develop strong
sprouts that rise out of the sol, and
develop strong stalks and leaves.
Many farmers have not the opportu-
nifty to put their potatoes in cold
storage houses, but they should en-
deavor to keep their potatoes at a
very low temperature. The nearer
33 degrees potatoes are kept, the
better.

GOOD POINTS ON CONCRETE
Most Failures Originate in Selection
of Sand and Gravel-What
Makes the Ideal Mixture.

Concrete is manufactured stone
formed by mixing cement, sand and
stone or gravel q. e., pebbles) to-
gether with water. The cement is
but small part of the mixture and
is the product of skilled workmen un-
der the supervision of the manufac-
turer who must compete with all
other makers Of like material: but
the sand and gravel constituting one
third or one-half of the final product
must be selected and prepared by the
farmer and this is where most fail
ures originate. Various amounts of
each are used according to the use
to which the finished product is to be
put. The mixture in which all the
spaces or voids between the stones or
gravel are filed with sand and all the
spaces between the grains of sand are
filed with cement is the ideal mix
