SOUTHERN ,BELTRAMI
POTATO YIELD WILL
BE MILLION BUSHELS
Aamodt Predicts Successful
Year.-New Treating Plan
Endorsed by Farmers.

1t is probable that farmers Of
southern Beltrami county will raise
more than a million bushels of pota-
toes this year. the production being
secured from 5000 acres, about half
of which are being planted to seed
treated under a plan advocated by
A. w. Aamodt, farm bureau manager,
and which is being generally en-
dorsed.
The treating is done by use of cor
rosive sublimate, the purpose being
to prevent losses now occurring from
the three potato diseases known as
scab, black scurf (rhizoctonia)> and
Iblackleg. Bemidji druggists have
sold more than three hundred pounds
of corrosive sublimate, a sufficient
quantity to treat seed potatoes for
1000 acres. Under normal condi-
tions the average crop is about zoo
bushels to the acre in this vicinity,
which will mean a crop OF 100000
bushels of. potatoes qualified for GER
tification. Indications point to q
large crop and the yield will prob
ably go over 100000.

being operated in several sections OF
the county and the farmers are carry
