SEED POTATOES
Would Be Profitable ii Grown
In This County.

H. H. Beier, county agricultural
agent, says:
The growing OF certified seed
potatoes gives promise to be a
profitable industry for kootenai
county. While the bulk Of the
market potatoes are grown in the
irrigated districts of south Idaho
they find it difficult to produce the
class of seed that is necessary for
them to have in order to keep up
with their large yields and good
dlsease-tree potatoes. Potato
diseases are less common and the
seed tuber of this northern section
becomes more productive when
taken into the warmer climates.
Potatoes may become certified
that are grown from selected seed
that is true to type and free of
disease, properly treated at plant
ing time, and during the growing
season have the plot inspected by
the county agent or field horticul-
turist of the University extension
division to, be sure that no diseases
have escaped the seed treatment
or to rogue out mixed varieties.
This procedure is not expensive.
1t costs nothing and will help to
build up the potato yields in guam
tity as we'll as quality. Five Car
loads of certified seed potatoes
were recently sold in south Idaho
for So so per cwt. which was
double the market price at that
time.
E. r. Bennett, field horticultur-
ist with the University extension
division has done much toward es-
tablishing the potato industry for
south Idaho and has assisted the
county agent of Kootenai county in
assisting about rs growers with
the selection of seed potatoes dur
ing the past season.
