Immense amounts of byproducts re-
suit from the manufacture of the ce

fast foods, vegetable oils, etc. While
unsuited for humans, some OF these by

feeds for stock. AS the density of pop

farm animals must, to an ever incrcas-

roushness of the land. Yet stock will
thrive on the scanty but highly nutrl-
tious grasses and other forage. Through

Under exclusive grain farming the
chief demand for labor Is confined to
the periods of preparing the land,
planting the crops, harvesting and
later marketing the products. During
the rush seasons labor is high priced
and often hard to secure at any cost.
On the other hand, live stock farming
offers employment throughout the ell
tire ycnr. Winter. when little other
farm work can be done. is the very
season when farm animals require the
most care and attention. for they are
then usually housed instead of mt pas
ture. Because the live stock farmer
can thus offer steady employment he
Is usually able to secure men who are
both more efficient and more reliable
than he would otherwise be able to
obtain.

This means careful selection from the

Select only from hills in which n

description mentioned. Potatoes from
such hills nre more certain to breed
true to type.
Select potatoes weighing from five
to eight ounces.
Use for seed no potatoes grown In
fields showing n considerable amount
of wilt or rosettc.
Avoid potatoes showing brown ring
discoorations at the stem end.
Save for planting no potatoes which
are bruised. cracked or decaying. or
which show discolorations at stem end.
