Mr. Martin said in the legis- lature a few days ago that it may be necessary to enact legislation to bring the potato industry in Ontario out of chaos. After our visit to big kitchens and city warehouses we can see noth- ing else for it, especially after hearing four men discussing the potato situ- ation in the local mill Saturday after- ; noon, oneof them declaring the agri- < cultural representative does not know 1 what he is talking about. In times j gone by this man made money out of , Eurekas and he is going to grow Eure- kas again. ' I yuuuwuco cut: nub wantea. In a dealer's warehouse The Herald uunaua. ' was shown thousands of bags of po- 1 tatoes. From one pile a bag was tak- ' en and emptied into a box. Every tuber was the same size and not a bit of dirt adhered to them. These were New Brunswick potatoes. In contrast, a bin of Ontario potatoes was pointed i out. ing grading by the dealer. At the back of the warehouse was a pile of dirt which came off several carloads of Ontario potatoes. Not only does the dealer have to grade and clean, but he must pay a trucking company to remove the dirt. Ifnn `Aka 1\n'....L.1.. .A:J ! All these potatoes were await- ` auuncwssuccu IN UK: an U1 U118 variety. The heavy consumer knows the var- ieties just as well as any potato grow- er knows them. He has his prefer- ences too and so far as The Herald could gather the Dooley is the potato that gives the greatest satisfaction. It cooks up firmly and when it is mash- v ed it is as our informant says mash- ed potato and not mush. He says that even adding a little milk to it does not break down its firmness. These consumers are not averse to any variety of potato so long as the ship- ment is all of one variety. They like the Cobbler, but state that it is not so firm a cooker as the Dooley. The M varietiesthat are liable to go to piec- es in the well under the weight of f other potatoes are not wanted. Tn 1 nalnv-'5 nynunl.-......... n-111.- -v... - - KILL FLU by using the Old Reliable!

Potatoes for hotel consumption must sumers cook their vegetables in deep wells in electric ranges. They put probably a bagfui in a well and turn on the current. When the top pota- toes aro cooked the current is turned off and the water drawn off. The potatoes on top are firm and nicely cooked through. Below them is a mixture of mush, firmly cooked tub- ers and some half cooked ones. This ` is what comes of mixing varieties. The f big consumer will not take mixed var- ; ieties and not being able to get On- ; tario potatoes of one variety he takes 1 maritime potatoes and gets them 1 guaranteed to be all of one variety. 1 The heavv nnnsnzmnr Irnnnrc 4-ha m... vvauvaavli ua cuuacuuuis i'a.uu.:a.uy WTODE. To discover the reason for the pre- ference for tubers from the maritime _ provinces a visit to the kitchen of a - large city hotel is at once convincing. ; The Herald was shown how potatoes are cooked in one of the down town r hotels in Toronto. They are peeled by a machine that takes the hide off a hundred in a minute. The machine is adjusted to peel a potato of a cer- tain size and if a small potato gets in ` it is not peeled. If a large one is fed in J the peeling is very thick and much of j the potato is wasted. Here lies the 4' reason for grading the tubers. The Western hospital uses a car load of potatoes. in a few days. If they are not graded there is either a waste of time sorting them and adjusting the peeler or there is a great waste of po- tatoes. Large consumers insist on ac- curate grading and not being able to get Ontario potatoes graded they buy maritime potatoes carefully graded.

All they ask is $20 or $30 cash, ac- cording to the value of. the farm. - They put up here at the hotel for a few days. It is said that one day they collected $300 from 10 farmers, not a bad day s pay for three. One man is from Stayner and well known here. Another is an Englishman who alleged to have said he had $40,000 ready to buy a suitable farm for him- self. But even the best farms in this neighborhood did not exactly suit him.

With 3 the majority of days having warm sun- ' shine, the snow disappeared rapidly, causing very little ood water, and no damage to report. The wheat is look- ing good, and the majority are look- j ing forward to a good crop, under , right weather from now on. And tak- ing into consideration the belief that a poor maple syrup season is good for the wheat, why everything is in its favor, for according to a maple syrup authority close by this has been a poor season owing to the snow disappearing and an absence of frosty nights. Up to the present very ilttle sap has been `_ gathered and some have not even tap- ped their trees. to Damage by Rabbits The little cottontail rabbits did , much damage this winter to the small _ fruit trees and shrubs. They certainly _ are becoming a nuisance. One of the :' local sports spied one of the large- ~ sized jack rabbits last week, the rst to be observed as far north as this, a sure indication that they are also mul- tiplying rapidly. When we pay $2.00 and $3.00 for fruit trees and have them destroyed by these pests, it is high time a general hunt was organ- ized. It is hoped that next fall local sports will get together and have a genuine hunt, the losers to pay for the eats. ` now TELEPHONES INCREASE A _.J. ._-L, ,_.__. ...,.... uuu uauub were are I10 % towns in the United States according to size having a more promising ap- pearance of prosperity.

Farmerswho are anx- ious to dispose of their farms would be farther ahead by advertising in their local paper and I am sure that the charge would not be any $30 either. ; owners had to do was pay over $30 and their farms would be listed with the company who would do all in their power to create a good sale, but there was no guarantee that a sale would be made.
