digging potatoes harvesters should use care serious loss from j mechanical injuries the most serious loss resulting from mechanical injuries to pota toes is due to the destructive rot caused by fungi and bacteria which enter the tubers through the injur ed tissue these organisms are known a3 wound parasites and oc cur in every potato growing section of canada since they became im portant after harvest it is natural to assume that the rough handling of potatoes during this period may be followed by serious consequences by mechanical injuries are meant cuts bruises shrinking and cracks cuts are usually the most conspicu ous and while bruises and cracks ore known to be more serious it should be clearly understood that all injuries which do not heal quick ly may lead to considerable loss and inconvenience where healing takes place without delay the offending organisms are shut out and the tub ers thus protected maj remain free from rot on the other hand conditions may be more favourable for the organisms than for the heal ing process so that rot sets in the amount of injury depending upon the temperature and ventilation con ditions of the storage house observations made at the domin ion laboratory of plant pathology charlottetown demonstrated con vincingly that potatoes produced on wet land develop a tender skin and are more subject to injury when dug than those produced in dry soil potatoes produced under such con ditions therefore should be hand led very carefully while it is true that potatoes grown in dry soil have comparatively tough skins and for this reason are less liable to injury nevertheless they are very often injured through the tact this typo of soil is not carried over the dig ger to compensate tins disadvant age when elevator diggers are used sufficient soil should be taken up to prevent the tubers coming into direct contact with the moving parts of the machine authorities agree that diggers should be at least 21 inches wide and the spade operated deep enough to avoid cutting the tubers the careful farmer pads not only the digger chain but also all hard and solid parts of the ma- chine with which potatoes may come in contact while the digger is the j offender in causing mechanical in juries it is ackowledgea also that considerable damage is inflicted when the tubers are picked and hauled to the cellar it has been determined experimentally that tub ers are injured but very slightly when poured from a basket into a sack from a height of 12 inches when poured from a height of 30 inches however injury by cracking ami bruising is very severe pota toes therefore should be rolled or poured carefully from baskets into the bags further precautions against such injuries are as follows leave the potatoes exposed to the sun and the air for two or three hours do not drop the filled sacks on the floor of the barn or cellar pad the picking baskets with at least one layer of burlap experimental farms note scouting

climbing because of the war scare and industrial factors in total business are mostly very en couraging crop income in the west despite damage will average higher than last year he said and canadas possess- ion of more than half of the wheat in the world placed her in a most en viable position he said advises advertising therefore it is wise to adopt a policy of liberal advertising and sell ing
