FARMERS SHOULD
SPRAY POTATOES.

Last season during the dry weather
there was no outbreak of blight on
potatoes. The conditions may be
reversed this season. The present out
look of weather conditions are favor
able for development of late blight
and every precaution should be taken
to insure the crop against the loss of
this kind. AS farmers and potato
growers, we cannot afford to plant
$500 seed and take the risk of not
spraying. The whole plan involved
in controlling fungus disease of this
nature is to get there first and keep
there throughout the season. Keep
all parts of the plant covered with
Bordeaux Mixture 4-4-50 formula,
that is, four pounds of blue vitriol,
four pounds hydrated lime and fifty
gallons of water, to protect it against
the spores of the disease. All parties
contemplating spraying should leave
checks to show the effectiveness of
the spray.
We have a bulletin entitled "Sug-
gestions for Potato Growing" by Prof.
c. w. Waid, Potato Specialist, NJ. A.
