Years
Ontario imports potatoes from
the Maritime Provinces, and at the
present time a part of our supply is
coming from the Provinces of Alberta
and of British Columbia. Ontario is
well adapted to the productiqn of po-
tatoes of excellent quality, and should
suply at least her own demands.
The potato crop• of Ontario could
be decidedly and economically improv-
ed by a more general use of pure,
well bred seed of a few of the best
varieties, by the adoption of better
methods of 'culture, and ,by a more
complete control of insects and dis-
eases. It should be the aim of every
grower bo produce large yields of uni-
form potatoes free from disease and
of high table quality. Varieties of po-
tatoes differ greatly not only in yield
per acre but also in freedom from rot
and in cooking qualities. For instance,
in the trying season of 1915 the varie-
ties of potatoes grown under uniform
conditions at the Ontario Agricultural
College varied in yield per acre from
13 to 366 bushels, in amount of rot
from less than 1 to over 70 per cent,,
and in table quality from 36 to 83 per
cent., out of a maximum of 100 points.
Some kinds are found to be very sus-
ceptible to rot and others to be almost
immune. The table quality of pota-
toes varies far more than many peo-
ple realize when mealiness, flavor

given a higher yield per acre than
those obtained from any other source
in each of the four years of this ex-
periment. Seed potatoes grown in a
cool, moist climate which prevents ma-
turity are often superior to those
which have ripened in a hot, dry cli-
mate. Immature seed potatoes are
usually inferior for table use, but
furnish excellent seed. Potatoes
grown in Ontario in a comparatively
cold, wet season like that of 1915 are
likely to be of good quality for plant-
ing providing they are free from dis-
ease. Tubers showing discoloration
or signs of rot on the outer surface
or when cut should not be used for
planting.
There are far too many varieties
of potatoes grown on the farms of
Ontario. This is one of the greatest
weaknesses in the potato industry of
the Province. It is a defect that
should be remedied as soon as_ pos-
sible. If Ontario would confine her-
self to a few of the best varieties of
potatoes the annual crop would be in-
creased in yield, in quality, and in
commercial value.
There are over one thousand named
varieties of potatoes in North Am-
erica, and fully four hundred have
been grown under experiment at the..
Ontario Agricultural College. Many
of these are quite inferior, even
though they have been extravagantly
advertised; some are old varieties un-
der new names, and comparatively
few are worthy of general cultivation
by the farmers of Ontario. If these
few were groevn to the exclusion ' of ' .

would be obtained, whether the pota-
toes were produced for home uses or '
for commercial purposes. i s

this true if the potatoes are to be

planting helps to hasten the growth
and increase the yield.

ED HER DIABETES.
Mrs. McDonald Might Have Saved
Herself Months of Pain, Sleepless-
ness and Anxiety by Using Dodd's
Kidney Pills Earlier.
Grand Narrows, Victoria Co,, N.S.,
May lst.—(Special.)—That Dodd's
Kidney Pills will cure kidney disease
in its worst form is evidenced by the
case of.Mrs. Roderick McDonald, an
estimable resident of this place. Mrs.
McDonald suffered from diabetes for
two.,years, and found her first relief
in Dodd's Kidney Pills,
"I am sure I would be in riwy grave
to -day but for Dodd's Kidney Pills,"
Mrs. McDonald states. "The doctor
attended me for five months for dia-
betes, but I was worse when I stopped
taking his medicine than when I start-
ed. I could not get a "wink of sleep.
"As soon as I started taking Dodd's
Kidney Pills I fell in a solid sleep for
one hour, and soon I got so that I
could sleep fine.
"Dodd's"Kidney Pills have done so
much for me that I feel like recom-
mending them to everybody." •
Mrs. McDonald states that her ear-
lier symptoms were shortness of
breath, dizziness, backache and a bit-
ter taste in her mouth in the morn-
ing.. All these are symptoms of kid-
ney trouble—danger signals that no
one can afford to neglect. Had she
heeded them and taken Dodd's Kidney
Pills she would have saved herself
months of pain ane anxiety.
DRAINAGE FOR WETNESS AND
DROUGHT.
How shall we obtain the mosb satis-
factory soil moisture condition
throughout the year? The great
factor in moisture cpntrol is drain-
age, natural or artificial. Few farins
are-sufficienbly drain by natural
means; nearly all require some arti-
ficial drainage.
The- problem then is, "Where shall
we place our drains ?" "How deep
shall we put them?" "What size of
tile shall we use?" The position of
the drains depends largely on the
slope of the field, the depth on the
kind of soil, the • size of bile on the
extent of the area drained, and the
fall or grade given the tile.
If you are uncertain about these •
points or anticipate any difficulties,
b he Ontario Agricultural College will
end you a drainage surveyor who
will, if necessary, prepare a map of
your, ferias, showing the location of
your', •drains; the ;size of tile to use,
