Distinction is recommended by Dr..
Morrill, in all cases, regardless Of the
source Of supply A press circular
has been issued by him, describing dis
infection methods.
The Arizona horticultural commission
is given authority to establish quaran-
tines to prevent the introduction Of
farm pests but as the Arizona potato
crop comprises only a small fraction
of the amount consumed within the
state. a potatON- quarantine is imprac-
ticable. Potatoes are an increasingly
important crop, however, especially in
dry farming sections.

two failures of kaffir in % years in
Kansas and one one in 20 years In
Oklahoma. and in them lies the saliva

il is argued.
Kaffir is recommended to regions
baving "a inches of rainfall a year,
while fetefita is adapted TO sections
having an average Of less than 10
inches.

Pound for pound, silage made from
corn. from kaffir and from sorghum

each is put at the proper stage of ma
turity. over 2 large part of the south
west kaffir win give a heavier yield
than corn. Sorghum Will yield more
