CERTIFIED SEED POTATOES 
Always plant seed potatoes that have been certified generally by a 
representative of the State Department of Agriculture, to be free from 
disease, that greatly reduces both the yield and quality of the Potatoes 
produced. The eyes in the Potato make the plant. Cut the tubers into 
pieces lengthwise of the Potato contcining 1 to 2 eyes. Plant 15 inches 
apart in rows 32 inches apart, covering 3 inches deep. Nobby Potatoes 
result from continued growtn of the vines under moist conditions late 
in the season. This is known as second growth. Peck will plant 150 
feet of row; 15 bushels will plant an acre.
