METHODIST ASSEM- bL \.
.CONVENES IN OPEN|HG 6.
SESSION TOM D RRO v
AFTERNOON Z 0 CL D CK

Not less than five hundred people
are expected to attend the opening
session of the Methodist Assembly
which conyenes at the Methodist AS
sembly grounds near Turner Falls,
Monday afternoon at two O'Clock. for
a seven day session. DR.. Forney Hutch.
inson, pastor of st. Luke's NJ. f.
church, Oklahoma City, is among
those of prominence who will con
duct the Assembly. Rev. r. l.. Jack
son, assistant pastor of Broadway
Methodist church, Anymore, is in
charge of arrangements and reports
that everything is moving nicely and
that the Assembly promises to be
grand success.
ute a number Of Ardmore peo.
pie have registered for the full as
sembly course and will thus spend
the time from Monday to Monday on
the grounds. After the opening ses.
sion Monday afternoon no other after
noon sessions will be held, the after.
moons being set aside for recreation,
morning and evening.
Plenty Camping Ground
Since the building now on the
Methodist grounds is more or less
of a temporary structure, rather the
neucles for u group of similar build.
ings to be constructed later. each
person attending is expected - bring
thei rown cots and bedding. The CLUB
house, as 1t is called, has been resery.
ed as dormtory for young ladies
an dtwo of the lady teachers will
have quarters in the building. Here
as elsewhere, cots and bedding must
be furnished by the individual. Ali
who can possibly do so should pro-
vide themselves with tents, as there
IS ample camping ground for this
form of shelter and since large
attendance is expected, the build
ings in the vicinity will not pro.
vide shelter for all in case of rain.
Parties who sleep in the club house
viii be charged q fee of two dollars
to help defray the expense of build.
ing the house.
Scouts Dining Hall 10 BE Used.
The Ardmore Boy Scouts dining
hall has been rented for the oc.
casion, and Mrs, n. Y. Morgan will
have charge Of the haR with an
able corps of cooks to prepare the
meals. Incidentally Mrs Morgan is
familiar with the dining hail. having
served in the same capacity for the
Boy Scout camp in June. also the
cooks have prepared meals in the hall
and forty-ive Boy Scouts can testi.
fy S to their ability 10 prepare ap.
petizing meals in camp.
Probably the best way to get TO
the grounds. for those not having
cars, is to go to Davis by train
and take u service car from there
The rate Is very reasonable and those
leaving on the 1855 Santa Fe can
expect to arrive at the grounds by 2 /
O'Clock without undue effort.
Rev. Mr.. Jackson requests thai
anyone having tents which can be
rented for the week please call phons
2S2 so that suitable arrangements |
can be made.

of the soil on the outside of the frames The bed should be kept moist, but not wet.
 At first the temperature may run to 95 or 90 degrees Fahrenheit, but it should be kept at 80 to & degrees as near as possible. By planting time. which should be from five to six weeks later, the temperature should stand at about SO degrees. All of this is de. scribed in bulletin No. 124 which may be had on application to the agricul- tural college at Fayetteville.
 For a late crop, cut a piece about
 eight to ten inches long from the end
 of the potato vine. The leaves, ex- eept at the top, are stripped off and all but the growing end covered with soil. Some growers prefer to plant a portion of their crop by means of slips and then secure plants for the rest of their acreage by means of vine cutting The vine cuttings have the advantage of being free from disease and are cheaper than slips, and some i claim that vine cuttings give the high est yield.
 The illustration shows the methods of pulling slips from the bed. The seed potatoes should be held down with one hand while the slips are ber l ing removed They will not all b6
 ready at one time, and only those which have formed good roots should
 be drawn. If two or more hang together. they should be pulled apart to avoid trouble in the field. Pudi ding the roots in mud is desirable to
 keep them from drying. After the slips
 are pulled, water the bed to settle the
 soil where it has been disturbed so
 that the other slips may come on later.
 A bushel of small potatoes will bed from 15 to 20 square feet. It will re- quire from three to six bushels per acre. according to the variety. A bushel of seed should produce from 1000 to-5,000 slips. If beds are made
 from April 10 to April 20. slips will be
 ready as soon as it will be safe to
 plant them.

SELECTION OF SEED POTATOES.

In selecting seed for bedding pur- poses there are two factors to con- slider, namely: type of tuber~ and free dom from disease.
 Small or string potatoes may be used for bedding purposes if they are from 4 to 11e inch in diameter free from disease and from bruises or cuts. Smaller strings OF mere roots may not have the vitality and should not be used. Many of the southern experi- ment stations have tested the differ ence in yields between large and small potatoes for seed but without resulting in strong plea for the large potatoes.
 Sweet potatoes may be brought up to type by using the hill as a unit.
The Carlisle independent., 1920-05-27

National Crop Improvement Service
 "Sprouts" or "slips" are obtained by placing the seed potato under the prop CT growing condition of heat and moist ure.
 The sprouts soon start from the tubers and are quite sensitive to cold and if plants are wanted early in the spring some form of artificial heat is necessary.
 When stable manure is used for heat, be careful not to bring it from feeding lots where diseased vines or tubers have been fed.
 Fresh horse manure containing ap- proximately one-third litter (which can often be obtained from livery barns where only clean hay is used), is bet ter.
 manure cannot be secured, but this type of hot-bed requires closer atten- tion and is difficult to handle.
 Wken making propagation pit or hot-bed, select a well drained place having south slope protected on the north side by fence. trees or build fngs.
 Build plank frame four feet wide as long as desirable. making the north side few inches higher than the south side. Bank the frame to keep the water from collecting around it. Inside the frame excavate to depth of eight or ten inches. Place first a thin layer of light material, such as straw, leaves or pine needles. On this place a layer of six to ten inches of fresh horse manure, the amount de pending upon the climate, season and amount of forcing desired. Moisten thoroughly. level and pack firmly. Then place layer of sand or light soil from three to four inches deep. The temper ature may run rather high for few days and the tubers may be planted im- mediately if desired.
 In bedding, place them so that they do not touch each other so that the tops of the potatoes are from two to three inches under the surface. Have the top of the bed come above the level
The Carlisle independent., 1920-05-27

For instance, if we are breeding Nancy Halls to size and shape, it is neceS- sary to keep in mind the standard to be attained and at digging time, go over the field and select those pota- toes for seed from those hills which show vigor. productiveness, resistance to disease and large number of smooth marketable potatoes.
 The ideal potato should be about seven inches long and approximately three inches throughout the thickest part. They should be smooth, shall lowed eyed, free from disease or blem- ishes of any kind and represent high quality and flavor, color and texture.
 In selecting strings do not use culls and especially do not plant seed pota- toes from poorly matured hills.
