The table quality of pota- toes varies far more than many peo- ple realize when mealiness, flavor and appearance of different varieties are taken into consideration and are carefully determined, In each of four years an experiment has been conducted at the Agricul- tural College in testing under similar conditions potatoes obtained from dif- ferent sources. For instance, eighteen lots of Empire States potatoes were secured from eight different .sources, five in the Province of New Brunswick and three in Ontario. Seed potatoes grown about one hundred and forty miles north of Guelph, in Muskoka district, near the Muskoka Lakes, have given & higher yield per acre than those obtained from any other source in each of the four years of this ex- it, Seed potatoes grown in a cool, moist climate which prevents ma- turity are often superior to those which have ripened in a hot; dry cli- mate. Immature seed potatoes are usually inferior for table use, but i excellent see Rotatoes grown in Ontario in a comparatively cold, wet season like that of 1915 are likely to be of good quality for plant- ing providing they are free from dis- th| ease.

This is one of the greatest | weaknesses in the potato industry of the Province. It is a defect 'that should be remedied as soon as pos- sible. If Ontario would confine her- self to a few of the best varieties of potatoes the annual crop would be in- creased in yield, in quality, and in commercial value. . There are over one thousand named varieties of potatoes in North Am- erica, and fully four "hundred have been grown ander experiment at the .| Ontario Agricultural College. Many of these 'are quite inferior, even though they have been extravagantly advertised; some are old varieties un- | dér new names, and comparatively ED HER DIABETES. - Mrs. McDonald Might Have Saved Herself Months of Pain, Sleepless- ness and Anxiety by Using Dodd's Kidney Pills Earlier. Grand Narrows, Victoria Co., N.S., May 1st.--(Special.)--' Dodd's in its worst form is evidenced by the case of Mrs. Roderick McDonald, an estimable resident of this place. Mrs, McDonald suffered from diabetes for two years, and found her first relief in Dodd's Kidney Pills. "I am sure I would be in my grave to-day but for Dodd's Kidney Pills," Mrs. McDonald states. "The doctor attended me for fivemonths for dia- betes, but I was worse when I sto taking his medicine than when I & ed. I could not get a wink of sleep. ""As soon as I started taking Dodd's 'Kidney Pills I fell in a solid sleep for one hour, and soon I got so that I could sleep fine. "Dodd's Kidney Pills have done so much for me that I feel like recom- mending them to everybody." Mrs. McDonald states that her ear- lier symptome were shortness of breath, dizziness, backache and a bit- ter taste in her mouth in the morn- ing. ~All these are symptoms of kid- ney trouble--danger signals that no one can afford to neglect. Had she heeded them and taken Rodd's Kidney Pille she would have saved herself months of pain and anxiety. PRUEEREN | SA DRAINAGE FOR WETNESS AND DROUGHT. How shall we obtain the most satis- factory soil moisture condition throughout the year? The great factor in moisture control is drain- age, natural or artificial. Few farms are sufficiently drain by natural means; nearly all require some arti- ficial drainage. The problem then is, "Where shall we place our drains?' "Hew deep shall we put them?" "What size of tile shall we use?" The position of the drains depends largely on the slope of the field, the depth on the few 'are worthy of general cultivation by the farmers of Ontario. If these few were gro to the exclusion of fully ighty per cent. of the kinds now under cultivation better results would be obtained, whether the pota- toes were produced for home uses or for commercial purposes. Some of the varieties of potatoes .which-have been prominent in the ex- periments at th Ontario Agricultural Collge and in the cogperative experi- ments throughout Ontario are the Em- pife State, the Davies" Watrior, the Rural New Yorker No. 2, the Green Mountain and the Carman No. 1 of the late, and the Extra Early Eureka, the Early Ohio, and tLe Stray Beauty Triumph of the early varie- oy : and also Early Eurka and In the tr § kind of soil, the size of tile on the extent of the area drained, and the fall or grade given the-tile.
