Growers of potatoes in New York state suffer, greater losses from high temperatures than from fnStelng. ^ storage temperature between 36 and 40 degrees Fahrenheit Is recommended as the best for potatoes. Below 36 de grees the tubers develop a sweet taste which Is undesirable In market stock but does not Injure the seed stock. Potatoes will not freeze at tempera" tures above 2 degrees..

Q. Kammlade, assistant chief in sheep husbandry at the college of agriculture, University of Illinois. Feed costs will be high and profits will be eaten up unless the lambs are fed to gain fast, he pointed out Rapid gains generally are cheap gains, as they mean good use of feed and a quick improvement in the condition of the lambs. "Feed costs will be a much more important item in the expense and returns of lamb feeding this season than was the case a year ago. Roughages, especially hays, will cost much more, and all grains have so advanced that it will not be so easy to get a margin over feed costs. "Silage is a relatively cheap feed and may be used as the only roughage for fattening lambs, if .it is properly supplemented to make up for the lack of protein and mineral. When legume hay is not fed In addition to the silage, it. is essential that a protein concentrate such as soy bean oil meal, cottonseed meal or linseed meal be included in the ration. Likewise, some simple mineral supplement should be spread over the silage. About one fourth pound of the protein supplement daily for each lamb is usually enough."

Pretty, but Evil The wild morning glory may add a bit of pleasing color to the fields, particularly along boundary fences, but its Innocent appearance cloaks its real damage. The plant is of the same general family as the sweet potato and thus serves to harbor the weevil, which attacks the sweet potato and does great damage If left uncontrolled. In order to eliminate the weevil It Is necessary to clean fields thoroughly after the harvest and also rout out the morning glories in order to deprive the weevil of a host between growing seasons of the vegetable. May Try Desert Grass If grasslands can survive for thousands of years on the edge of the Gobi desert in central Asia, despite severe drouths, heavy pasturing and wide variatiotis in temperature, why should not grasses of the same species be helpful in rebuilding the depleted range lands of western United States? With this thought in view the United States Department of Agriculture is planning an Asiatic expedition to study conditions in the Gobi region and obtain .specimens of grasses with which to experiment in western drouth-besieged territories, Central Garage FRED J.
