The StoringOf Sweet Potatoes
T. n. Mediation, Professor OF Horti-
culture, State College of Aeri.

One of the greatest problems that
will confront the nation this year will
be the storage Of crops after they are
produced. 1t is an easy matter for
the Georgia farmer to grow sweet
potatoes. 1t is very common crop
and one that is grown extensively
throughout the state. The problem of
holding ahis crop over for winter use
is a vital question at this time.
Storing in hills and pits is not very
practicable. We cannot afford to lose
this year the potatoes that normal
ly rot under such conditions.
The most approved method of sweet
potato storing is to harvest the crop
as soon as it is mature, to thoroughly
grade the potatoes, throwing out all
the bruised, injured or rotting ones.
These may be Immediately used either
on the table or fed to hogs, if they are
not fit for table use. The good pota-
toes should then be carried to stor-
age house. This storage house should
be made with dead air space in the
walls and with double roof. The
potatoes are carried into this house
and put on trays or bins in the sides
of the house. A stove is in the CEN
ter of the sweet potato room and the
temperature is brought to from 80 to
100 degrees, where it is held for a
week or 10 days until the potat. IS
have gone through their sweat After
this the fire is allowed to go out and
the temperature is kept between so
and so degrees. This may necessi-
tate a fire being built in the stove
from time to time during the winter.
1t may be rather early for this in
formation to be given out, but now is
the time for the Georgia farmer to
think about the conservation Of his
food supplies through the winter.
The sweet potato house should be built
before the crop is harvested.

How 70 Save Onions
T. n. Mediation, Professor OF Horti-
culture, State College of Agri.

The great trouble that the Geor-
gla farmer has with onions is hold
ing them through the winter The fol.
lowing methods of handling are rec
commended in order to save the onion
crop. The usual practice is not to
harvest onions until the tops are
thoroughly dead. This, under our
conditions, is a mistake. AS soon as
the first few inches of the top begins
to yellow and die the onions should
be either plowed out with d small
one-horse pillow, or one should go
through the field with a potato hook
or tine hoe and pull each onion over
on its side. In this way the top dies
down and dries out without making
point of entry for water into the
onions where the top bends and
splits just above the bulb. after the
top has died and dried and the onion
has pretty we'll dried out it should be
removed from the field and spread in
we'll ventilated, airy place. Here
the curing is completed. After this
the tops may be removed and the
onions put in racks or crates in a
storage room where they may be pro-
tected from freezing.
If the Georgia farmer can save the
onion crop this year, even the small
crop of home garden, it will mean a
great deal of food for use this winter.

Increasing The Oil Content
Of Cotton Seed By Selection
L. E. Rast, Jr. Prof. of Agronomy,
Ga. State College of Agriculture.

AS a result of four years work in
the Cotton Industry Laboratory of the
Georgia State College of Agriculture.
it was found that the oil content Of
cotton seed is an inherent character
istic of the variety and that the per-
centage of oil in the seed of any va.
riety can be increased by selection
with no corresponding loss of other
desirable qualities. There are slight
variations from year to year depend
ing upon the season, but these environ
mental factors influence all varieties
alike, and the seed of varieties that
were high in oil content the first year
have remained so during subsequent
seasons. In general way, the varie-
ties with the highest proportion of
meats to hulls produce the most oil;
but there is no positive correlation be-
tween percentage of meats and oil
content since the percentage of oil
in the meat varies with the variety.
The difference between the seed Of
the highest and lowest oil yielding va
rieties for the three years was 10.4 gal
Ions per ton. This means that by
growing the superior sorts and elm
mating the inferior ones the aver
age value of cotton seed could be in
creased $500 to $1,000 per ton.
Our experiments have clearly
shown that there is no decrease in
yield of lint cotton as the oil CON
tent in the seed is increased; but on
the other hand, the strains showing
the greatest oil content in the seed
are the highest yielders of lint cot
ton per acre. Thus in addition to high
oil content, it seems the seed can be
made more valuable by reason of the
high yield of lint With an annual
crush of 100000 tons of seed in Geor-
gia, attention 10 this line of work will
result in the addition of at least S..
100000 year to the agricultural in.
come of our state.
