PRESERVING SEED POTATOES.
The aim of all growers ought to be the careful preservation of the scc<l tubers now being stored in as dormant a state as possible. Nothing in tinshape of a heap should be formed. Let them be separated from the ware and small potatoes. Good, medium-size tubers are the best for planting. Store them in single layers in boxes. Do not leave them lying about to collect disease. Keep them dry and dust with flowers of sulphur.
