SIX POTATO ASSOCIATIONS

Potato Growers associations have
been formed at White, Bushnell, Elk
ton, Bruce, Volga and Bookings, ac-
Cording TO II. j. BOyts, county agent.
The definite plans Of operation are be-
ing worked out by the boards Of di-
rectors of the various potato associa-
tons. Meetings will be called again
for the growers to finally approve the
bylaws and methods to be followed
in marketing the potatoes by each To-
cal association.
Tie benefits to be derived from the
local associations are, first: Stand
ard varieties can be grown by the
community; second, diseases can be
better eliminated and orders for treat
ing material can be pooled with a big
saving in cost; third, a better market
can be secured.
Growers who wish to purchase good
seed can get it at reasonable prices
this spring. The Farm Bureau can
furnish prices on seed potatoes. With
one-third of u potato crop carrying
disease it will surely pay to secure
new seed or select carefully and treat
thoroughly all seed potatoes.
Orders for corrosive sublimate should
be pooled through the local potato as
sO~ciations. Special prices are being
secured. The corrosive sublimate
treatment consists in soaking potatoes
m and one-half hours in a solution
of -four unces of corrosive sublimate
to thirty gallons of water. This is
deadly poison and care should be ex-
ercised in its use.
The Minnesota Potato Exchange Of
fers to market potatoes for growers
of South Dakota at ten cents per cwt
the same as Minnesota locals pay. The
county local associations have not de-
cided on the definite marketing plans.
Publicity will be given to the final
methods agreed upon by the associa-
tons.
