 Farmers of this section and city people who have raised their own po- tatoes this year report that the weath- CT of the past few weeks has caused a great loss in the number of pota- toes. The ground has been so soggy that the spuds have routed and in many cases are a total loss. Benja- County Bureau offers the following suggestions for those who have this trouble: When the spuds have been dug, clean the dirt from them and lay them on dry floor and let them dry for two or three days. After they have dried out sort the good tuberS and throw the bad ones away. Those that are only bad in spots can be saved by cutting off the bad parts and In answer to the question about the best time to dig the spuds Mir. South wick states that there is an equal chance either way, whether they are dug now allowed to stay in the ground until cold weather.
