Tubers showing discoloration or signs of rot on the ouser surface or when cut shouid not be ased for planting. There are far too many varieties of potatoes grown on the farms of Onâ€" tario. This is one of the greatest weaknesses in the potato industry of the Province. It is a defect that sbould be remedied as soon as posâ€" sible, It Ontario would confing herâ€" self to a few of the best varieties of potatoes the annual crop would be increased to yield, in quality and in commercial value. There are over one thousand namâ€" ed varieties of potatoes in North America, and fully four bundred have been grown under experiment at the Ontario Agriicultaral College. Comparatively faw are worthy of general cultivation by the farmers of Ontario. If these few were grown te the exelasion of fully cighty per cent of the kinds now under cultivaâ€" tion better results would be obtained.

To be healthy at seventy, prepare at forty, is sound advice, because in the strength of middle life we too often forget that neglected colds, or careless treatâ€" ment of slight aches and pains, simply undermine strength and bring chronic weakness for later yeass. _ Varietios of potatoes differ greatly not only in yield per acre, but also in freedom from rot and in cooking qualities. Forinstanee, in the trying season of 1915, the yarieties of potaâ€" toes grown under uniform conditions at the Ontario Agricultural College varied in yield per acre ftrom 13 to 366 bushels, in amount of rot from less than one to over seventy per cent, and in table quality from 30 to 83 out of a maximum of 100 points. age acre of land which the farmer plants with this erop. An increase of fifty per cent in yield would mean an increase in the amount of potstoes produesd on each average acre of land sufficient to supply about one dozen people for twelve months. The potato erop of Ontario could be deâ€" eidedly and economically improved by a more general use of pure, well bred seed of a few of the best variâ€" eties, by the adoption of better methâ€" ods of culture, and by a more comâ€" plete control of insects and diseases.
