PLACE FOR POTATO STORAGE
Plenty Of Ventilation 10 Necessary
Have the Bins More Than Eight
Feet Square.

(By A. r. KOHLER. Minnesota Exper.
tment Station.)
The place for storing potatoes
should have plenty of ventilation. Bins
ought not to be more than eight feet
square and should have slat walls
with hollow partitions. Or there
should be plenty of ventilating tubes
with slat sides reaching from top to
bottom OF the bin. Where bins are as
large as eight feet square q ventilat-
Ing tube in the middle of each one
would be desirable. Ventilation helps
to carry of moisture. thus keeping
the potatoes dry. making 1t possible
to! cool them of quickly in the fall
and keep them cool during the winter.
The best temperature for potatoes
Is as near IS degrees Fahrenheit as
possible. A good tested thermometer
or several in different locations and
at different heights should be kept in
the cellar and watched at frequent in.

In putting potatoes into q storage
cellar they should be run over .
screen that will take out the dirt.
Large potatoe cellar should be filed
In layers SO as to give the potatoes
the best possible opportunity to cool
of and dry. Dumping 4 whole days
digging in one place is not the best
practice.
The best method for keeping mois-
ture from collecting on the inside Of
the roof Of potato cellars is to cover
them with straw or strawy manure.
Plenty OF ventilation also helps.
