GET YOUR SEED
POTATOES NOW
PROF. HUME ADVISES EARLY Sell
ECTION AND GIVES GROWERS
OTHER TIMELY INFORMATION

Get your seed potatoes NOW,
warns A. N. Hume, agromomist
at State college, who states that
the problem of securing good
tubers fr planting next spring
is likelN to be ONE of the most
serious that has comfr mted the
state i'm many years. 1T is an
open question: says DR.. Hume,
whether South Dakota posses
ses "a sufficient amount If t'uhers
for seed or mot. Whatever the
quantity may pr we to be at pres
mt either in growers hands or
elsewhere, the fact remains that
the price of potatoes before the
coming crop is harvested win be
out of sight. :
DR.. llume states that every
available source of seed sl amld
be drawn upom with the utmost
economy and offers the fo'l' wing
suggestions with that i'm view:
If ON account of the scarcity
f potat9es lit becomes necessary
to utilize c1Ills for planting, po-
tato growers shorld keep in mind
the years to come by growing IA
special breeding plot from select
seed. No great harm lis likely to
result i'm planting culs in fields
where the crop is to be harvest
ed strictly fos market purposes.
In sorting oalt the culls for gen
eral planting, tire best tubers
may be selected for planting a
seed breeding plot fir nm which
the 1918 seed potatoes may be
secured next fail.
1t has been demonstrated that
varieties of potatoes rum cut.
This fact WAS perhaps demonst-
ated quantitiveTy first i'm South
Dakota and published i'm bulletin
No. 155 of the experiment sta
tion. This bulletin states that
the average yield fr' I'm potato
pieces of equal size WAS 5.55
bushels per acre higher when
select tube1w were used for
seed than when culls were used.
Farmers who plan ON growing
potatoes this year should send
for a copy of this bulletim ad
dressing the request to Dlrec-
tor, South Dakota Experiment
