TIME SAVED BY USING
HOT FORMALDEHYDE

Many Minnesota potato growers
are interested in the hot formaldehyde
method Of treating potato seed be-
cause it saves time, is less poisonous
than corrosive sublimate, does not
corrode metals, and is effective for
both scab and rhizoctonia.
The sloution is made by mixing
two pints of 40 per cent formalde-
hyde to 30 gallons of water. This is
heated to a temperature between
11S degrees F. to 1872 degrees F..
The potatoes are dipped in the solu-
ton for two minutes and then dump
ed in pile and covered with can
vas cober or sacks for one hour: They
can then be dried or cut and planted
imme ediately. Formaldehyde when
used without heating will not control
rhizoctonia and requires one and one
half hours of soaking for best results
