According to J. M. Fulton, of the Canada Department of Ag- riculture's research station at Harrow, a surer answer lies in new varieties, improved meth- ods of harvesting and grading, and allowing potatoes to mat- ure more before harvesting. Most soils used for growing early potatoes are highly fertile and need only about 1,000 poun- ds of a 5-10-15 fertilizer per ac- re for maximum yields. In tests for several years, ir- rigation had no effect either on the dry matter content of the potatoes or on the amount of skinning at harvest. When fertilizing was omitted in any one year there was no increase in the dry matter. Some fields not fertilized for several years yielded less than half the usual crop but produc- ed potatoes with about one per cent more dry platter and slight- ly less skinning than those from fertilized fields. On the other hand, when fertilizer was used at higher rates than recommen- ded the dry matter content was one perecent lower. Aitl A eu-we coo, svero FOR DEPENDABLE HEAT All Winter Long Call LORNE E.

Dandelions, chickweed, a ri d plantain have been especially serious. To destroy these, use 2,4-D, suggests John A. Weall of the OAC Horticulture Department. This chemical will kill broad- leaved plants and won't affect the tender grass shoots. It is sold commercially and the man- ufacturer's directions should be followed explicitly. Care should be taken in its application. If it drifts to other parts of the garden it may do serious harm to ornamental plants, and shrubs. So, be sure to spray on windless days to re - "Shur -Gain Chick Starter does wonders for us. It builds us up with uniform growth and fast feathering.

The whole lawn should be thoroughly wet after spray- ing. Try to spray when the temperature is above 60 degrees suggests the horticulturist. The leaves of affected plants begin to curl and die within two or three days after being spray- ed with 2,4-D. Even the roots decompose. Following this de - 1 composition, remove any re- mains and dig up the soul sur- rounding the immediate area. After these areas have been ex- posed to sunlight for a week, prepare the ground, and re -seed. Usually one spraying is suf- ficient, but later spot applica- tions may be necessary. One percaution; a separate sprayer should be used to apply 2,4-D and this sprayer should not be used with insecticides and fungicides.
