NOTES ON POTATO
CERTIFICATION
By Gordon G. Brown

A few potato growers in the Upper
Valley made a start this year in grow
ing certified seed. Only one grower
passed the preliminary field inspection.
Naturally some of those whose fields
failed to pass inspection feel somewhat
disappointed and are inclined to think
the growing of certified seed an impos-
sible or impractical proposition.
AS matter of fact statistics recent
~ compiled by the Extension Depart
ment of the Oregon Agricultural Col
lege, show that there is rapidly
growing interest in this state in seed
seed certifcation. This year l6 coun-
ties are represented in this work.
Umatilla and Deschutes have the larg
est acreage. In the Weston mountain
district of Umatilla county, every
grower entered his fields for certifica-
tion, and practically all of them passed
the first field inspection, and in Una
tilla county as whole. 553s acres
passed, while. 3l5 acres were rejected.
in Deschutes county, 230 acres passed
the first inspection, while only 210
acres were rejected. This information
has just been taken from the Exten-
sion Service News.
The most helpful feature of the situ-
alton lies in the fact that during ear
lier years of certifcation effort, it was
common for the greater acreage to be
rejected.
The writer submits that it is we'll
worth while for Hood River to con-
tinue its efforts to grow potatoes which
will command premium, in fact it
will scarcely pay to do otherwise. The
standard in perfection in potato grow
ing in Oregon is rapidly being raised
and only those who produce the best
will command a premium. This year
there is a pronounced surplus in this
state. Despite this fact certified seed
will probably sell for double that OBJ
tanned for ordinary stock. When Prof.
G. r. Hyslop, of the Extension De-
partment, was here a short time ago
to make inspections, he pointed out
that ideal conditions for potato grow
ing obtained in the Upper Valley, and
urged the growers to make furth
efforts in seed certiication.
Statistics compiled show 2.9l2 acres
entered for certification this year with
1898 having passed the first field in-
spection.

SW0PE DEVELOPS
BEAUTIFUL DAHLIA

]. W. Swope, who makes hobby of
his flower gardens, has developed a
new variety Of dahlia this season, Sc
curing a sport from what is technically
known as a bud variation. Mr.. Swope
has secured plant that is loaded with
huge blooms of deep cerise that
shades to pure white in the center.
Fanciers who have seen the new plant
declare it one of the handsomest
dahlias they have ever seen.
Because the local climate is so ad-
mirably adapted to dahlias, Mr.. Swope
plans next year on increasing his var
ieties to more than 100. He has a
great assortment this year, but his
varieties next season, it is said, will
be the largest in the mid Columbia.

Plan Your Christmas Business Now.
fRutland Herald

The inconvenience of a movable
Thanksgiving is emphasized this year by
the fact that the November festival
comes on the last day of the month.
Christmas comes on a Monday, so there
will be only twenty shopping and ship
ping days between Thanksgiving and
Christmas
Almost inevitably. the Retail Ledger
notes. this will mean terrific last min
ute rush of shoDDing on Saturday, De-
cember the eighteenth, because very few
people begin thinking about Christmas
until after Thanksgiving This is
natural enough. but unless there is some
special speeding up this year, there will
be trouble.
Thanks to the continual urge of in
telligent advertising and the frequent
prodding of the newspapers, Christmas
shopping customs have been greatly
changed for the better There will al
WAYS be a last minute rush, Just as
there will ALWAYS be some one who tries
to catch the last train as it pulls out
of the station. but there are Nan increas-
ing number of prudent people who heed
the usual Injunction and wonderfully
relieve a grateful army of salesfolk and
shippers, to whom the week before
Christmas is always more or less of a
night mare.
This year. the first Of November will
be none too soon to begin the Christmas
shopping drum, and progressive adyer-
tisers will take advantage Of the situa-
tion.
Meanwhile. the usual DO Your Christ
mas Shopping Early" slogan might well
be amended to read:
Begin Your Christmas Shopping Be
fore Thanksgiving.

Not a Personal Matter.
lRntlnnd Herald. }

Some Of the comment on the action of
Governor HARNESS in calling on the
states attorney of Rutland county to
enforce the law in respect to games Of
chance at the fair would indicate that
the matter might be n personal issue be
tween the chief executive and the attor-
ney general, or between the governor and
the officers of the county. The Herald
does not SO understand it.
'Ihe law is clear enough, but the fact
is that its absolute. literal and punctil-
iauS enforcement would operate to stop
a number of church and society fairs
from exercising a familiar and almost
universally condoned source of Arevenue.
If the governor commits himself to en-
fercing the law mctculouSly at the state
and county fairs. he may commit the Off
GERS of the law to taking action against
every church fair committee which sells
chances on a quilt or Al set of dishes, or
whatnot:
With this fundamental difference. how
ever; that the governor, as the executive
head of the state and chairman of the
board of control. is directly interested III
the fairs which receive state aid in the
form of financial subsidy for the purpose
Of advancing agriculture. He might
move to hold back or call for the return
Of the state appropriation. He might
also DO other things.
Section 3I4 Of the General Laws of
Vermont provides:
The governor may employ counsel III
behalf of the state. in any state depart
ment on office, when, In his Judgment. the
protection of the rights and interests Of
the state demand it,"
This has been invoked before now.
sometimes in similar cases and sometimes
IN cases of more Importance such as the
telephone prosecutions instituted by the
late Allen NJ Fletcher while governor
tHdoubtedly, if Governor Hartness were
SO disposed. he could employ special coun-
sci and take such action as he saw fit
Just where he would get with "a Rut-
land county jury is another matter.
The Herald does not consider the run
ming of games of chance i'm which the
prize Is blanket or doll or some similar
object, with one given away honestly
with every turn of the wheel us anything
very serious; nevertheless, an attitude of
respectful consideration would sit well
upon the officers of the law both of state
and county, until the final attitude of the
governor becomes known.
Clearly he is within his rights and
/ within the law in demanding that such
games be closed down. The question is
| whether the matter is of sufficient imnor.
