ditions, than it is possible for them
to buy in the open market. A few
simple rules in making these selec-
tons will help to improve the quail
ity and quantity Of potatoes. In the
first place, good hills that have a
large number of medium to large size
tubers should be selected and placed
in separate boxes at digging time.
This is the only time that it is pos
sible to save good seed. If you wait
until after the potatoes are all dug
and placed in a large pile and then
expect to select your seed the
chances are that you will select me-
dunn to large size tubers and, in all
probability, these tubers will come
from hills where there were only one
or two medium to large sized po-
tatoes in the hill, the rest being too
small to use. Since we know that
potatoes breed up more or less true
it is very evident that in saving seed
it is important to save the tubers
that come from hills where most of
them are medium to large with a
small number of potatoes in each
hill. This is always preferable to
selecting the one or two medium
sized tubers from hills where all of
the rest Of the potatoes are small.
IF small quantity of seed can be
saved by this method this year and
planted in separate rows next year
and the same method of selection
followed again next year it will be
found that in three or four years it
will be possible to breed up potatoes
so that they will yield from SO 1-3
to 80 per cent better than when the
seed is selected at random.
