Select Your Seed Potatoes Now.

Select Your Seed Potatoes Now.
The matter of seed selection of
potatoes has been very largely neglect
ed, although the potato responds as
quickly to selection as any farm crop.
The fact that like produces like"
should not be lost sight of in the i'm
provement of our potato crop.
OF all the factors in potato growing,
selection of seed is by far the most i'm
portant, and the only place from which
to make this selection is from the field
during or just before the time for dig
ging the crop.
In selecting potatoes in the field, con-
siderable dependence can be placed on
the appearance of the tops. A large
perfect top, with several stems of good
shape and size, can usually be depended
upon to have more tubers under it, and
of more uniform quality and size than
a hill with single stalk or one with
small weak stems. Select much in the
same way as seed corn is selected in
the field from the best individual stalks;
there is no other way to get true breed
characteristics in potatoes except by
selecting seed from perfect hills.
The standard which should be the
guide in seed selection might be: Pure
seed from productive plants, not over
ripe, uniform in size and shape, firm
and sound.
Now as the time is approaching when
the potato crop will be dug, let US
select few hundred pounds of seed
true to the type of the variety planted,
from those hills that yield not less than
twelve commercial potatoes, (some say
twenty, free frem disease and imper-
fections,, for the seed plat next year,
from which plat the seed for the next
years potato field will be obtained
after the selection for the next seed
plat is made.
By following this method potato
culture in the San Juan Basin will be
recognized over. the country, and a
seed center viii be established here
that will make the growing of this
crop most profitable.
The average yield of potatoes in the
United States is about ninety-six BUSH
els per acre. The average yield per
acre in England is about two hundred
bushels per acre. The Earl of Rose
berry produced two thousand bushels
variation in yield is largely due to diff
ference in seed selection as we'll as
cultural methods.
Do not fail to make field selection of
seed when you dig your potatoes.
