Potato Harvest [N the first issue of The Listener for 1952 there appeared a summary of a talk given by 3YZ’s gardening expert, R. P. Chibnall, on how to grdw a hundredweight of potatoes from one seed planted in a barrel-or about a year’s supply for the average New Zealand family from six seed potatoes and six barrels (or their equivalent in stakes and boards). Though it is now rather late to do anything for this season, Mr. Chibnall is still getting an impressive amount of mail about the article. He has also pointed out that, through a printer’s error, most of it is being addressed to "Mr. Shibnall." We apologise for this error (and for not noticing and corfecting it earlier), and hope that it has not caused a critical delay to any potato-fanciers.
