he broke through and made tackle

Storing Potatoes
To insure a uniform supply of
late potatoes throughout the win
ter, from 65 to 75 per cent of the
total crop must be stored either
on the farm, at the shipping sta
tion, or at terminals. The U. S.
Department of Agriculture makes
these recommendations for suc
cessful storage of potatoes. Protect
them from extremes of heat or
cold—from 35 degrees to 40 degrees
Fahrenheit is the best temperature.
Supply good vefttilation. Keep the
storage house dark—the table qual
ity ; of pota.toes deteriorates in the
light. See that the tubers are
dry and reasonably free from dirt
when put into storage. Remove all
diseased, badly cut, or bruised
tubers before storing them. It is
better not to store them deeper
than 5 or 6 feet, or on a floor space
larger than 12 by 12 feet, unless
ventilating shafts are provided.
