With the close Of the potato harvest
season for 1915 the time seem oppor-
tune to call to the attention OF both
the grower and the scotsman the de
STABILITY of considering seriously a
very material reduction in the mum
Der OF varieties grown in any given
community or section Of the country.
1t has been the history OF every
other staple crop that the fewer the
varieties grown the easily are
they marketed. The pioneer fruit
grower in America tried to grow as
large a list of varieties as he could al
ford to purchase. while today the tend
ency is to reduce the list to the least
number that can be depended upon TO
meet the market requirements, The
reason for this is that it has been
found a much easier task to sell large
quantities OF one variety than an
equal quantity made up OF a large
number OF varieties. 1t is believed
that the anne principle applies to the
potato crop.
In a recent publication by the Unit
ed States department OF agriculture.
Bulletin No. 17G, a system Of classiti-
cation Of potatoes is presented in
which the leading commercial types
are referred 10 II groups. and a list
OF the varieties studied which are
thought to belong to each group is
furnished. In many cases the varie.
ties listed in each group are 80
nearly Identical that in the opinion
of the author of this bulletin there is
no justification for the retention of
more than 10 per cen of them.
The commercial grower should de-
termine what group or class of pota.
toes is best adapted to his climatic
and soil conditions, and then contine
his efforts to not more than one or
two varieties within that group. In
this way it will be possible for him
to become more familiar with the be-
havior Of the variety he is growing:
to recognize its special cultural re.
quirements. and to offer for sale a
much more uniform and high.grade

that he was fined $40 for contempt OF

FARM
ANIMALS
FEEDING POTATOES TO HOGS
Fed to Best Advantage When Cooked
or Steamed and Mixed With vari-
Gus Other Feeds.

On account Of tho low price of 20
tatoes in many sections farmers have
been seeking information IS TO the
possibility OF feeding them to hogs.
Many experiments have been con-
Quoted in Germany and other foreign
countries as we'll as a few in the
United States 10 determine the value
Of potatoes as feed for swine. In Ire
land and Germany farmers feed large
quantities of potatoes annually. From
experimental data it has been con-
Guided that / to 81 bushels OF pota.
toes when cooked are equal to about
one hushcl Of corn Tor putting gains
III hogs. Therefore. ii corn is worth
50 cents a husiel. rotatocS when fed
10 hogs would be worth only IS or -
cents q bushel. There may. however.
be instances where il would be more
advantageous for the farmer to feed
TO hogs right on his place at least
part OF his crop rather than 70 haul
these potatoes to an already over.
loaded market.
hNAp.A!.S " i.lt NtllStllSiS VI bl'li-
ion. potatoes are fed TO the best ad.
vantage when cooked or steamed and
mixed with other feeds. Experiments
in which raw potatoes were fed alone
have been reported. In certain in.
stances the raw potatoes are said to
have caused scours. However. raw 20.
tatoes in small quantities and in a diet
lacking ~succulence may be conducive
TO health in pigs.
In cooking potatoes only enough wa
ter should be used t make a mealy
mash and prevent burning. The re-
sultant meal should then he mixed
with corn meal or other grain supple
nent. Tankage. skim milk. or meat
meal would probably add to the prott
of the mixture. Potatoes when pre-.
pared in the ann described and
under the conditions mentioned can
often be fed to pigs with advantage.

SUPPLYING WATER TO SWINE
One Of Difficult Problems Hog Rails.
ers Must Solve in Winter-Tank
Heaters Are Best.

1t, is true that hogs. especially pigs.
do not get as much water as they need
during cold, freezing weather. The wa.
ter Should be heated in cold weather to
at least 30 degrees Fahrenheit. ard it
Is better If it is heated to 20 or so de.
grees. How to heat the water and
keep it warm is one of the difficult
problems hog raisers have to solve in
winter.
Some folks water the hogs several
times during the day and pour all the
water that is left out OF the troughs
as soon as the hogs drink.
Others have arranged various de-
vices in which they a use tar.k heat.
ers. This is the most convenient and
satisfactory way if a large number Of
hogs can be watered at one place. Tho
method to use will have to be deter.
mined by local conditions.
Hogs do not thrive or make good
gains when ice water is given them in
troughs that alread.' are half filled with
ice.
