The' several experiment stations have reported results of tests favorable to both sides of the question. The hard-headed) potato specialist makes good his argument In favor of northern-grown po- tatoea for seed In this manner: Un- doubtedly the climate of the north is more favorable to the growth of the Irish or white potato than that of the south, and it naturally follows that the tubers Intended for seed will not -sprout as quickly in the north as in the warmer climate of the south, hence lose none of the vitality necessary to make good top growth. This seems; plausible, and the same object, retard-, lug the sprouts, may doubtless be accomplished by keeping the tubers In cold This retarding, of sprouting is the foundation for the claim that the second crop of potatoes is best for seed purposes, for ripening FREE ON APPU CATION. i killlirbtteweli7aged 14, at April M-Eeese Prultt, coli killed by ilm Roe, Sweet Home."
