Growers of certified seed whose

preparing to grade for tuber insp.

Grading is an exceedingly critical
operation in the production of cer-

POWER FROM GATINEAU
For some coneiderable time the
people of Ontario have been familiar
withc
th fact that the Provincal
Government had contracted for the
transmission of 200,000 horsepower
of electric energy from the Gatineau
power plant, but yesterday the
scheme became a reality when the
first unit comprising 80,000 'horse-
power was switched into the Hydro
Electric System of the Province.
The purchase of this block of power
was made in order to forestall any

particularly to growers to whom
the work is new. Helpful inform-
ation regarding type, grade, diea-
ses, etc., may be obtained from the
inspector at the time of inspection.
In order to qualify the crop for
certification, it must be graded to
meet the following standard:-
