CHESTERFIELD BOY
GETS LARGE YIELD
Arthur L. Welcome, IL Years Old
Raises 1895 Pounds of Potatoes
from One-sixteenth Acre.

Last April, Arthur L. Welcome, IA,
son of Edward L. Welcome of West
Chesterfield, n. H., joined the Boy 5
Potato club, with eight others, under
the direction of L. A. Carlisle Of the
state college at Durham Each planted
one-sixteenth of an acre of potatoes.
The boy took entire care of his plot,
and did all the work himself, except
what team work was necessary, such
as plowing, narrowing, ETC.
He sprayed his plot four times, with
home-mixed Bordeaux mixture, after the
formula given out by the state.
The results are very gratifying, and
the yield remarkable, as he has ust
finished harvesting 1895 pounds, or
33 IA bushels, which is at the rate of
532 bushels per acre. The tubers are
fine and as smooth as one would wish
to see.
The crop was dug by Clifton J. Stod-
dard, Mr.. Welcome and his son; the
weighing was done and sworn to bv
Mr.. Stoddard. The next largest WELD
of any member of the club was 19 so
bushels. The variety planted by the
Welcome boy was the Green Mountain,
and the results show that spraying
pays, as his vines were green until
long after all others were dead.
