CERTIFIED POTATOES

Several farmers are planning to
use certified seed potatoes this year
with a view towards getting better
potatoes and more money for them.
Certified potatoes mean spuds that
are practically free from any disease.
They will cost about $500 a bushel
delivered. There is a growing de-
mand for these right here in the
state and as the cost is very small,
outside of the cost of the seed, it
would seem to be a wise plan for
farmers who are now having good
success with potatoes to start with a
few bushel of certified seed and raise
potatoes that are disease free and
bring much more than table stock.
Harry Davis of Cambridge and
Stafford Brothers of Morrisville are
planning to put in an acre each this
year. The county agent knows of a
very fine source of seed supply and
will be glad to put any farmers inter
ested in touch with those who have it.

WHO is CHRISTIE?
A letted to the Editor

Some years ago, my young ideas
were taught how to shoot, in the
little old school house on the hill, in
District No. of the town of johnson
otherwise known as the Christy
District, so named for Robert C..
Christy, one of the leading men of
the neighborhood. | have always
kept a warm spot in my heart for
that old school and that district and
have read with interest the items in
the New and Citizen under the head
ing of "Christie District" for a num-
Der of years past, even though there
is only one familiar name left there
now. But within a short time, ]
note that the old name itself is a
thing of the past, the time-honored
"Christy" having been superseded by
the modern diminutive, Christie y
And pray who is Christie" and who
gave his name to the district? Hop
ing aginst hope, Mr.. Editor. that you
will strike down this modern intruder
and give us back the old "Christy
District"

Every vote counts. This is your
