Off the seed end of each potato as it
is used for food and store these seed
ends in the same manner as the

Ordinarily it is not considered a
good plan to plant small potatoes
but the fact remains that good crops
have been raised from such seed and
with the present high prices small
potatoes are certainly better than no
seed at all and should most certainly
be used if better seed is not avail
able.
Again it is usually recommended
that in cutting potatoes for seed that

least two eyes. When seed is cheap
this is a wise policy as each eye has
more reserve food to draw upon

template an eventual increase in num-

was intended to devise method to
keep intact the practise of a physi-

designating a physician of the corps
in his own neighborhood to take care
of that practise during the period OF
