With tubers selling at $1 a bushel, any Kansas farmer could calculate in three shakes of a lamb’s tail how rich he could be come in six months with a ton of sawdust and a couple of bottles of Potatine. One bin, 10 feet wide, 5 feet high and 100 feet long, was gua anteed to grow 350 bushels a sc son, because the potatoes, it w explained,did not have to lose tir taking nutriment from the so They could get it in a twinklii from the Potatine. The only ( rections were that the bins shou be built north and south and th the sawdust should be kept cc ; stantly soaked in tepid water.
