POTATOES IN
STORAGE LIKE PLACING
MONEY IN THE BANK
When Kept for Time Of Scarcity They
Earn Dividends; Must Be Pro-
tected from Extreme Heat or
Cold and Too Much Light
Types of Houses Favored

Storing potatoes resembles banking
money, because ordinarily it results
in the potatoes selling for higher
prices later in the season when the
supply is not so abundant as at dig
glng time. The potatoes earn divi-
dends while in storage ust as money
in the bank accumulatcs interest. If
all the potatoes were sold Immediate
1y after digging the prices would de-
cline, due to the excessive offerings
on the market. This is why storage
is popular. 1t permits Of holding the
more or less perishablc potatoes in n
salable condition over as long a period
as is economically desirable. Storage
also insures a more uniform market
supply throughout the season.
1t is the late or man crop varie-
ties Of spuds, intended for winter
use, which are stored as the early or
truck crop potatoes are ordinarily dis
posed of directly from the field as
zl$1arvested. Poato storages are prac-
Ytically of all types and descriptions
from primitive shelters, such as caves
or pits, up to rather elaborate, arti-
ficially refrigerated storage houses.
However, the fundamental purposes Of
the storage house, b. ii simple or
elaborate, is to protect the spuds from
extremes of cold and neat as we'll as
from the light and under proper con-
ditions Of humidity and ventilation.
Care must be exercised not to keep
the potatoes together in large bulk
where the development Of high tenn
pcraturc Rnd deterioration will be
favored.
Specialists Of the United States Do
partmcnt Of Agriculture believe that

a temperature Of about 5G f. is gen
storage, and that during the earlier
portion of the storage season a tenn
pcrature Of 40 F.. is jus: as satisfac-
tory except where powdery dry rot in
fection occurs. The freezing point Of
the potato is between % and 26 F.
Potatoes, when exposed to strong
or even moderate lighs are soon in
jured for food purposes, and on this
account it is essential to exclude the
light from the storage house, although
exposure to modified light, where the
spuds are kept cool and well aired, is
not injurious to tubers intended for
seed purposes.
Protect Potatoes Against Whiting
There should be sufficient moisture
in the potato storage house to pre-
vent the willing of the rubers and at
the same time to maintain humidity
content low enough to prevent a de-
posit of moisture on :.e surface Of
the potatoes. One investigator sug-
gcsts a humidity of from 85 to 90 per
cent. as about correct for potato
storage room temperature Of 33 to
80 T.. Generous provision for ade-
quate ventilation must be made, the
ventilators or air flues being arrang-
ed so as to insure Il rapid and even
distribution of air throughout the
structure.
1t is bad practice to store potatoes
in large bins or piles. Not nfre-
qucntlY the tubers are heaped to q
depth of 10 or IS feet, the pile being
correspondingly large 81 the other
dimensions. Such storage almost in
variably results in violent sweating
or curing, in which the spuds in
the central portion Of the pile are frc-
qucntly subjected to a dangerously
high temperature. This is especially
true if the tubcrs are slightly inlna-
turc or we're not dry and free from
moist soil when gathered, or if storci
high, making it difficult to lower the
inside temperature Of the house. Such
ovcrhcatinG may be avoided by insert
ing division walls at intervals throawh
out the pile. The division walls may
consist OF , by inch uprights, on
the 2-inch face Of which are nailed

length, leaving a Lima space be-

Use Storage Adapted to Local Needs


Use Storage Adapted to Local Needs
In considering the type of storage
best suited to the needs the grower |
should bear in mind the temperature
and rain or snow likely to occur dur
ing the storage period, the character
and cost OF the material involved, the
nature of the soil and drainage. and
the length Of the storage period. Po
tatoes may be successfully stored in
pits if provided with good drainage
and given sufficient Covering to in
sulate them aaginst extreme heat and
cold, welldrained site being essen
tlal. 1t is usually not advisable to
eNcaVate more than inches, maxine
the PIT flong and narrew rather than
square in shape. 1t is madvisable to
store large bulk Of potatoes in one
pit.
The potatoes are stored over light
layer of straw on the floor, while the
pile Is insulated aga ;ns- cold and heat
by covering the sp:'ds with alternate
!ayers Of straw or il " and soil. Dur

layer OF straw when compacted should
be approximately 6 inches thick.
while the final layer of soil should be
to 8 inches deep, depending upon
Wo:ther conditions. Ventilation NAV
be provided by means of a wooden f1ue
the lower end of which extends almost
to the bottom of the pit, while the
upper end should project well above
the covering, the valve being equip

IN order that it may be closed entirely
during very cold weather.

is necessary to brace such potatoes
