Seed Potato lmport.tion,.


The cultivation Of potatoes. which
were originally introduced into Ger
many from the United States, has been
brought to such wonderful stage of
development that two distinct classes
Of potatoes are raised. the one rich in
carbohydrates, but poor in heterogeneous
matter for the fermentation industry,
and the other rich In heterogeneous mat
ter for eating purposes.
. Curiously enough. seed potatoes are
now imported into the United States
from Germany because our farmers
allowed this vegetable to degenerate
to such a degree that it has substan-
TALLY lost all value for seeding. The
science Of fertilizing achieved the
amazing result that Germany's soil.
although cultivated for almost 1000
years. is today more productive than
the virgin soil of the United States and
Canada.
Deserted farms like those of the
New England states and the state of
New York are unknown in the empire.
Chemistry is not only educating the
farmer in scientific fertilizing. but pro-
ducing the requisite artificial fer
tilizers.-Popular Science Monthly.

k.n.a. silo Census.

Kansas has 7.137 silos. This is some.
thing like ffty-one silos to every coun-
ty in the state. but there are twenty
one counties having less than dozen
and several having no silos whatever
within their boundaries. Five Of the
rich Kansas counties have more than
200 silos and are reporting constant
increases. The silo is changing the
sky line Of the Sunf1ower State, and
it is changing other things as well.
For one thing tho stave. pit. brick.
concrete and other forms of silos are
helping to make Kansas one of the
really prosperous states Of the Union.
1t might help for the agricultural au-
thorities in other states to make a
census similar to the one just complet-
ed by Kansas. Comparisons are some.
times stimulating.-Farm Progress.

Tho CABBAGE maooot.

The cabbage maggot is the principal
handicap in the production Of early
cabbage and caulidower. The insect
is present in most communities where
early cabbage is grown and OCCASION
ally causes extensive damage to this
crop.
OF the insecticides that are employed
to destroy maggots about the roots of
the plants carbolic acid emulsion has
generally been regarded as the most
efficient. Tests with the emulsion at
recommended strengths have demon
strated that it will prevent the hatch
ing of the eggs and is fatal to the
younger stages of the larvae. 1t may.
however, cause injury to young seed
lings and is not safe remedy for the
treatment Of plants recently set in the
field.

tar paper collars, for the purpose Of

SEED poTArora.

especially IL weather conditions favor
its spread. It is therefore of vital i'm
portance that healthy seed be used.
The Minnesota experiment station
pathologists have been misquoted with
reference to methods Of securing such
healthy seed. The soaking Of seed po-
tatoes is necessary in controlling some
diseases, but treatment with tornado
hyde or corrosive sublimate will not
prevent late blight.
Seed potatoes should be secured from
fields which have not had any of the
disease during the past year. If healthy
tubers are planted and the vines thor
oughly sprayed with bordeaux mix
ture the disease can be controlled.

GRADING SEED CORN.

May Be Graded Better Before Ears
Are shsIled Than Afterward.
Seed corn may be graded better be-
fore the ears are shelled than after
ward. The United States department
Of agriculture specialists in corn inves-
LEGATIONS consider it difficult to grade
shelled corn satisfactorily.
If the seed ears vary greatly as to
size Of kernel they should be separated
into two or three grades according to
size Of kernel. These grades should
be shelled separately. tested in the
corn planter and numbered to CORE
spond with the number on the planter
plates that are found to drop them
moet uniformly. These arrangements
can be completed before the rush of
spring work begins.
The first operation in properly she'll
ing seed corn is the removal of the
small kernels from the tips of the ears
and the round, thick kernels from the
butts. The former are less productive
than the other kernels of the ear. The
round butt kernels are as productive
as the other kernels Of the ear, but do
not plant uniformly in a planter.
Smelling seed corn carefully by hand
is profitable. The greater the acreage
planted. the greater the profit. Into a
shallow pan or box each ear should be
shelled separately. rejecting any worm
eaten or blemished kernels. If the
supply from the one ear appears good
and contains no poor kernels it is pour
ed into the general supply and another
ear shelled in the same way.

Tommy Atkins.

The use of the name Tommy Atkins,
applying to the British soldiers. dates
back to the Indian mutiny. In 1857
when the rebellion broke out in Luck
now all the Europeans fed to the Res.
-idency. On their way they came upon
a private Of the Thirty-second regiment
Duke of Cornwall's Light Infantry
on sentry duty ut an outpost. They
urged him to make his escape with
them, but he would not do so and was
killed. His name happened to be
Thomas Atkins, and so throughout the
mutiny campaign when daring deed
was done the doer was said to be "a
regular Tommy Atkins "-Exchange.

preventing the adult Of the cabbage
maggot from placing eggs about the
stems of the plants has been demon.
strated. but in spite Of its effectiveness
this method Of protecting cabbage has
not been generally adopted by truck
growers. Tar pads will protect early
cabbage from the pest at a cost OF
about $40 per thousand plants.
Truck growers. who are subject to
losses by the cabbage maggot. are
urged BY the New York agricultural
experiment station to test the tar,pads
experimentally as a basis for.mo ex-
tensfye operations against this pest.
