as a gift when a potato grower figures his atbour costs for planting cultivating spraying and harvesting and hlstout- u for fertiliser and spray materials depreciation on machinery marketing costs and

yield fcut may make all the difference in the wbrw as to the disposition of the crop due to quality or marketability all good seed potato dealers now moommend only the planting of certified seed for the logical reaso chat they are convinced that certified jeed is improved seed and more growers are asking for it hie dealers bke to have a constant and dependable apply of well graded healthy vigorous eed potatoes for their trade and they fakw that certified seed has been elected grown and rogued for disea ses under supervision and is inspected and passed upon by an unbiased third party of sound integrity who is just es anxious as the dealers are that the sed purchasers are fully satisfied jtathermore the field reports of the ftvpeccors are available and can be ued upon which is better in their opinion than having to depend upon the grower s own interpretation of the quality of potatoes he may have for ale another important point is that the dealer knows that the table potatoes

geteral manager of a business is recognized as a person of consider able ability certainly this is even more true of those who successfully manage a farm business in urban industry in canada there is an aver age of on general manager and 27 workers for each plant in canadian agriculture there is a manager for each farm and while the number of workers is not large the successful combination of labour and capital re quires real managerial ability almost every alternate man in agriculturt must accept the task of manager the number of managers per worker is thus 10 times greater in agriculture than in urban industry management ability is just as ne cessary in agriculture as in urban in dustry and training for service in this field to meet the changed and con stantly changing conditions of
