To Stamp Out the Potato Blight. 



1. — No potatoes must be removed from a Quarantine area. 



2. — Throughout Victoria plant this season's crop on land 

 which was not used for potatoes last year. 



3. — Use no seed except you know where it has 

 been grown, and on no account use seed from 

 quarantined parts of South Qippsland or Tasmania. 



4. — Before cutting place all seed potatoes in a bag and 

 soak for two hours in the following solution : — 

 Formalin, 1 lb.; water, 32 gallons. 



5. — After above treatment cut all seed. In doing so look 

 for any small patches on the surface which are 

 slightly depressed, or which are softer than the rest 

 of the potato, and cut through them. If discoloured 

 in any way, the potato should be rejected as seed, 

 and BOILED before feeding to the pigs.
