A recurrence of late blight and dry rot among potatoes can be pre vented next year. Clean seed is the great essential. Seed treatment is not effective for this particular disease. The late blight dry rot exists to a considerable extent among storage potatoes, says E. C. Stakman, assis tant plant pathologist of the agri cultural experiment station, St. Paul. If such lots are used for seed next year the disease may again be very destructive, especially if weather conditions favor its spread. It is, therefore, of vital importance that healthy seed be used. The Minnesota experiment station pathologists have been misquoted with reference to methods of secur ing such healthy seed. The soaking of seed potatoes is necessary in con trolling some diseases, but treatment with formaldehyde or corrosive subli mate will not prevent late'blight. Seed potatoes should be secured from fields which have not had any of the disease during the last year. If healthy tubers are planted and the vines thoroughly sprayed with Bordeaux mixture next year, the disease can be controlled.
