That Certified Spuds
Bring Higher Prices
The ready sale of good seed at more
than double the price of table stock, is
stimulating interest in the production
of certified seed potatoes in western
Nebraska, according to information
coming to the college of agriculture
from county farm bureaus. Good cer
tified Kebraska Triumph seed is being
gobbled up by southern buyers at $2
or more a hundred pounds, against
about GO cents a hundred for rating
potatoes. In other words, a carload of
seed is bringing about $800, against
$240 for a car of common stock, says
the Lincoln Star.
H. O. Werner, extension horticul
turist for the college, and secretary of
the Kebraska Potato Improvement as
sociation, has records in his office of
the sale of more than twelve carload
of certified seed, and some cars have
heen sold about which he has not yet
received information. Practical I v all
of this seed went to Texas and other
southern states.
One grower sold three carloads of
good certified seed for $2 a hundred
on the track. Another sold a carload
for 53.(0 a hundred delivered at Dal
las, Tex. This price left him practi
cally S3 a hundred net. Most growers
of certified seed have received $2 per
nuntireu t. o. d. western Kebraska.
One reason for the growing fameof
this state ithe fact that at present
the dryland sections are apparently
producing better Triumph seed than
any other state, Mr. Werner said.
Much of this seed is practically free
from a disease known as Mosaic, which
is playing havoc with Triumphs in
some northern states.
The inspection and certification
service of the college has done much
to establish confidence in seed potatoes
from this state. Ihe potatoes are in
spected in the fields and again in the
bins, carefully graded, placed in new
sacks, and sealed with a certification
tag.
The college is planning to continue
the certification work in western Ke
braska dryland regions. The work is
done in co-operation with county farm
bureaus through county agricultural
agents.

POTASH PRODUCED FROM
KEBRASKA LAKES
Until 1915 the United States pro
duced no potash salts from native
material except wood ashes but in that
year potash was produced from kelp,
dusts from cement kilns, and alunite,
and from the alkali lakes of western
Kebraska. The possibility of develop
ing the reserves of raw material fiom
the first three of these sources has
been studied and reported on by the
United States bureau of soils, of the
department of agriculture, and the
United States geological purvey, of the
department of the interior, but no gov
ernment report has heretofore been is
sued on the potash resources cf Ke
braska. In 1918 W. B. Hicks, ot the
geological survey, spent three months
in the alkali lake region of Nebraska,
visiting the plants and the productive
lakes; collecting samples of hiine,
water, sand and mud for analysis; and
making a general study of the region.
The information he obtained ha been
studied and careful estimates have
been made of the quantity of potash
salts in these lakes. These estimates
and notes concerning the probable
source of the potash salts are con
tained in Bulletin 715-1, which may be
had upon application to the Director
of the United States Geological urey
at Washington, D. C.

Legislature Refuses

Happiness of Elopers
Cupid laid 'em low in the state leg
islature Tuesday.
Senator Hall's bill providing for a
cooling oir period loforc marriage was
killed in the senate.
The vote was taken vive voce, and
the bill went down for the count.
Fear that Iowa, Kansas, Dakota or
Missouri might collect the well-known
license fees if the bill passed boosted
Cupid over the tape for the victorv.
The bill as offered bv Senator Hull
of York provided that a couple having
me utMir itim inclination 10 marry
couldn't fool their friends by slipping
out of town and getting the knot tied.
Ah, no. They had to appear before
the county judge and inform him, "We
wanta get hitched."
And then the judge would take their
names and their desire and post it in
big black glaring letters on his bulle
tin board, right out where the world
could see it.
And that had to stand for 15 days.
Meanwhile the judge would write a
little note to the parents of the amor
ous pair and slip them the "info.'
If no one appeared to kick against
the coming wedding, the Romeo and
Juliet would become as one with the
judge's blessing.
But if there was a kick ah, good
bye, Cupid no Mendelssohn's march
for them.
But and here's what leat the bill
if such should happen, there was
nothing to prevent the sweethearts
from slipping over the state line and
paying the fee in another ttate to get
the knot tied.
So the bill was beaten, and Omaha)
lovers may still sneak oil to Papil
lion's Gretna Green and fool their
friends, just like they have in years
past. Post.
