Potatoes are selling in Calais for 6s
cents out of the carts, and so at retail out
of the store. The farmers could have got
IS cents bushel last fall. but they kept
them over in the expectation of receiving
a big price this spring, whereas they are
getting 10 conts less. besides the loss of
the use of the money during the time.
Some of the farmers calculated they would
bring 81 20 bushel.
