Potato Improvement Work
in Windsor County

Potatoes may be improved in yield
ing power and freedom from disease by
seed selection. Last year six farmers
in Windsor county co-operated with the
county agent in carrying out the tuber
unit method of potato Improvement.
From rs to 100 potatoes of the desired
size, shape and quality were selected
from the stock of seed. Each potato
was cut into four parts of as equal
size as possible. The four pieces from
each potato were planted consecutively
so that each set of four hills repre-
sented the progeny from single
potato. At digging time each group
of four hills was kept separate,
weighed and noted for uniformity.
quality, etc. The ten best groups
were kept for planting this year. thus
the unit this year became the product
from four hills of single potato. By
this means a strain Of high yielding
potatoes free from disease will be
obtained The probable outcome will
be. that seed will be secured from the
farmers doing the selecting, and the
yield per acre of the whole community
will be raised.
This work is now being done in q
Unconstitutional way in Springfield,
Ludlow. Woodstock and Stockbridge.
Various other farmers in the county
are starting this work through sugges
ton of the county agent.

Eradicating Witch Grass

Witch grass has become a serious
problem in Orleans county and the
county agent is confronted with the
question of how to kill witch grass.
Probably no one method will work at
all times, but the best one which has
come to the observation of the county
agent is as follows: Assuming that
the farmer has meadow which he
wishes to break, it would be desirable
to cut the hay early and plow in mid
summer just deep enough to turn the
witch grass roots up to the sun, which
would be from three to six inches, then
from ten days or two weeks or as often
as the witch grass shows any growth
to run a disk harrow over it and
thoroughly root it up. This should be
done as late in the fall as possible.
The next spring the field should be
plowed deep enough to bury all the
dead roots which have been killed the
previous season. 1t is desirable to put
some cultivated crop on the first season
such as corn or potatoes. If this is
impossible, to useRbuckwheat or millet
or some quick growing crop. The
witch grass is propagated by the pro-
duction of seed and underground stems.
1t is obvious that the method of
control should be first to cut the plant
before it is ripe, and secondly to pre-.
vent the formation of leaves through
which a plant lives. If the green
leaves can be kept down the plant will
smother, and so through narrowing a,
frequent intervals the plant will be
killed.

Getting Rid of Ants.

AS long as household conditions are
such as to attract ants, measures for
getting rid of the insects will be of
little value, says new publication Of
the U. S. department of agriculture,
Farmers Bulletin TAO, by c. L.
Marlatt. The first step in freeing a
house from these pests is, therefore,
to clean up all food that may be scat
tered about and to keep all food sup
plies that may attract ants in ant
proof metal containers, or in ice boxes.
Cake, bread, sugar, meat, and similar
substances are especially likely to
attract the insects. The use Of bats
is not recommended in the bulletin
because Of the danger that these will
serve merely to draw more insects into
the house and thus actually to increase
the nuisance. Where it can be safely
used. however. strip poisoned with
arSenate of soda has been found efTec-
tive. The formula for this strip is one
pound Of sugar dissolved in a quart of
water, to which should be added I25
grains Of arsenate of soda. This mix
ture is boiled and strained and on cool
ing is used to moSten sponges which
are placed where they can be reached
easily by the ants. The insects collect
the strip and convey it to their nests,
so that the whole colony is ultimately
poisoned. Although this method has
| been found effective. as has been said,
it should be remembered that the
! arsenate of soda is poisonous to human
beings and to animals as we'll as TO
ants, and that it's use must be safe
guarded by the greatest precautions.
When the ants can be traced back to
their nests and these are in accessible
places, it is possible to destroy the
colonies by injecting with an oil can or
small syringe a little bsulphid of
carbon, kerosene, OR gasoline. into the
nests. All these substances, however,
are infammable, and precautions must
be taken. therefore, against the danger
of fire.
Though the common garden or lawn
Orleans County monitor. [volume] (Barton, Vt.) 1872-1953, 1916-08-16

ants which build their little crater
nests around houses are a district
species from the true house ants. they
may find their way into the house.
Their colonies may be destroyed by
drenching the nests with boiling water
or injecting small quantity of kero-
sene or coal oil into them. Where
larger areas are affected it is some
times advisable to spray the lawns with
kerosene emulsion or with very
strong soap wash prepared by dissolving
any common laundry soap in water at
the rate of one-half pound to one pound
of soap to gallon of water. Another
method is to inject bisulphid of carbon
into the nests, the quantity of the
chemical depending upon the size of
the nest. After the bisulphid of car
bon has been injected, the entrance to
the nest should be closed by the foot
in order to retain the chemical which
will then penetrate slowly through the
underground channel and kill the ants.
Although its fumes are disagreeable,
they are not poisonous to man and
the higher animals.

Spraying Potatoes

This is the season of the year when
farmers should keep watch of their
potatoes to detect any blight. Last
year this disease was a serious menace
to the potato crop and cost the farmers
of Orleans county many thousands of
dollars, because they neglected to
spray so as to prevent blight
This year the cost of copper-sulphate
or Bordeaux mixture is very expensive
and many farmers will hesitate to use
it. The New York experiment station
has just published the following in
formation in regard to spraying this
season. eff the weather during Au-
gust should be very dry spraying may be
omitted altogether, but if showers are
frequent and if blight makes it's ap-
pearance in the vicinity it will be
advisable to make three or four
thorough applications at intervals of
from seven to ten days" Such wealth
er as we have had the last few days
should cause the farmers to keep close
watch of their potatoes and thoroughly
spray if there is any evidence OF
blight.
