County agent Oliver K. Adams warns Hempstead farmers that seed quality largely determines potato yields for the Food-for-Victory drive. He advocates certified seed from northern states, noting stricter inspections and official labeling to prevent inferior crops amid wartime labor shortages and fertilizer concerns.
