PREVENT LOSSES
OF POTATO CROP
Avoid Cutting and Bruising of
Tubers While in Field and
in Shipping.
CAREFUL GRADING IS URGED
Cars Should Be Loaded With Aim for
Ventilation and to Guard Against
Shifting About and Breakage
of Containers.
{Prepared by the United Btates Depart.
ment of Agriculture.)
Potato growers can prevent much of
the losses of the new crop In transit
and in the markets by avolding cutting
and bruising the tubers in the field
and by not sllowing the potatoes to
remain exposed to the sun after dig-
ging.
Careful grading will increase the
growers’ profits and will make a sure
and more constant market. It is ime
portant to keep the skin-—the protect.
ing cover of the potato—intact. In
handling new potatoes this requires
great care. Cars should be loaded ac
cording to a definite plan, which pro-
vides for ventilation and prevents
shifting about and breakage of the
containers,

cruzhed and broken upon arrival at the

veneer barrels are too flimsy. All bar

conform to the specifications of the

Sacks Often Fail.

for shipping storage potatoes, they do

from cuts and brilses, and make ade

Good types of ventilated box cars

to protect from sun and weather. The

marked on all containers,
