SEED POTATO CERTTFTCATTON

inspectors Alfred n. Gilbert and Harold
l.. Bailey have completed the final in
spcction of fields enrolled with the State
Department OF Agriculture for certifi-
cation for seed potatoes. and certifica t es
have been mailed by Commissioner Brig
ham to growers whose fields have passed
inspection under the rules of the de-
partment. There were SAT 1-2 acres en-
rolled for certification. Of which 2A5 1-2
acres, or ~ per cent were certified.
Many fields were disqualified on ac-
count OF late blight infection This could
nave been prevented by thorough spray
ing with Bordeaux mixture, so that the
plants would have been protected during
the growing season. Farmers of YER
mont will probably lose thousands OF dol
lars this season from potato blight in
lection. which could have been prevented
by thorough spraying with Bordeaux.
Potato buyers from Long Island and
New Jersey have been in the State look
ing up seed from certified fields, and It
is probable that the entire output of Yer
mont will be sold at prices considerably

b'lty Of coast lines and conditions.
"a survey of the coast of New Jersey
shows strikingly shc results that are
wrought upon a shoreline hy the wind
and the waves" writes John Oliver La
(;frce to the National Geographic Society.
"The beaches for the most part are
being driven back by the sea. hut the
harbors which were accessible to coasters
quite within the memory Of men now
living, are being closed by the travelling
drift, Just as most of the mouths of the
streams emptying into tho ocean have
been closed and saltwater marshes
formed.
"In a description of the Jersey coast,
published in 1879 IL was stated that, prior
to the War OF 1872, old Cranberry Inlet
was one Of the best andhoragcs on the
coast and it afforded n safe harbor for
American prvateers on the lookout for
British ships during tho Revolution, II
opened one night by the angry sea break
ing across the beach. and during the last
year of It's existence as n harbor the
whole channel drifted nearly "a mile to
the northward. Its closure, about lSl2,
caused much Inconvenience that, In
1921. one Michael Ortley attempted to
cut a new inlet near the head Of Barne-
gat Bay. With the assistance of others,
II was finally finished; but the following
morning, to the Amusement of the volun-

"A survey at Atlantic City. in 1868 re-

1000 feet and adding to this part of the

from one riparian owner to another with
