the new crop will continue to bring good

The late frosts in many sections the last of
May aid fore part OF June have delayed the
crop of carly potatoes. 1t is probable that
the increase of price now will be felt all the

the greater the hurry to dig and market them,

large area is required to supply the market
with early potatoes and the main crop for
marketing is correspondingly shortened
