Influence of Temperature.
Potatoes stored in cellars when
the temperature is kept at 55 de-
grees will sprout in about 75 days.
If the temperature is kept at 45
degrees the sprouting will be slower,
usually about 125 days. A 40 degree
temperature -will delay the sprouting
still further, holding up the matur-
ing process so that the buds do not
start while In storage until about 200
days from the time of entering the

its modern d'evelopmientand expan-
