The potato crop of the northwest
L. Aaa.aaain1 In innorfancA VERY

The potato crop of the northwest
10 increasing in importance very
rapidly and 1t may be expected TO
continue doing SO. There perhaps
never was a time when more careful
consideration should be given to this
crop than at present. There will in
evitably be a shortage Of all food
crops. and the potato will share in
the demand.
There is an increasing demand for
northern grown potatoes, both for
seed and food. This Is because of
the fact that conditions in this region
are very favorable to the growing Of
cannot be excelled. A reputation In
this respect has already been estab-
lished, and must be maintained by
giving careful attention to cultural
methods.
In order to avoid damage by vari-
Gus diseases and insects. attention
must be given to treatment Of seed be-
fore planting, and also to spraying
the growing crops. Much of the dam
age due to these pests may be over
come by careful methods Of culture.
It means that study must be given this
subject, in order to secure the best
results.
Potatoes Beneficial to the Land.
There are many farmers in this
ISRlOn, WHO are eIOWlh6 POldlOCo W
the extent Of 40 acres or more. for the
special purpose of cleaning the land.
and putting it in better shape for
other crops. All who realize that a
rotation must be established, will see
in this method q possibility Of splen-
did results.
The potato crop should not be
wholly depended on-neither should
any other one o An acreage
which can be handled without any
extra effort should be put in each
year on every farm. There are very
few years when the potato crop would
not show a profit. and there are many
years when there would be a good
profit. Raising potatoes every year is
the only certain method of being able
to take advantage of the high price
year.
While there is a great yield of food
from the potato crop, the amount OF
actual plant food taken from the soil
is no greater h is used by The or
binary grain crops. n the fact that
the soil is cultivated. and left in so
much better shape for succeeding
crops, makes a very favorable show
ing for the potato.
Rotation Important.
Good farm management demands
that all crops be grown in such rela-
ton to each other that the greatest
benefit may be secured from any spe-
cial benefits which n crop would be
to that succeeding it.
The potato demands a loose soil
full of hunus, and one which retains
the moisture. Clovers. alfalfa and
sweet clover are most excellent crops
to be grown before potatoes. In fact
many farmers will SOW their wheat
land to clover, and let 1t grow one
year. and pillow it under, for the benz
fit that it will be to the succeeding
potato crops.
A splendid rotation would be small

sweet clover was sown. This cut fol
