Show Did you ever calculate the value of a single potato on the basis that that single tuber was the only one left In the world? That one would of course, contain within with-in itself the possibility ol restocking the world with a valuable article of lood. If one potato would produce, when planted, plant-ed, but ten potatoes, in ten years the tot.d production of lhat one potato would be 10,000,000, which would stock the whole world with seed. If the world weie reduced to one single potato, it would be better that London or Chicago be blut'ed from the earth than lor that one tuber to be lost. |
