The flame wilting produces pro-duces results similar to frost wilting, wilt-ing, bringing about the maturing of the tubers and toughening of their skins. Potatoes from the flame-wilted j rows will be compared with po- tatoes from adjacent rows accord-1 ing to weight, grade and tongh-j ness of the skin. The experiments! also will determine the best time1 to wilt the plant and the extent of flame to be used.
