Few not residing in the starch dis-
tricts of Aroostook probably have nc
idea Of the extent OF the starch msnu-
fseture. All know that il is one OF
Aroostook's big industries and that the
smaller potatoes, not useful for market
purposes, and the rotted ones, are
ground up at the factories for making
starch and beyond this the public kuowl-
edge extends but a short distance. II ia
no new industry but very useful one
for the potato growers, making a de-
mand as il does for the unmsrketable
portion Of the crop. There are about
fifty starch factories in the county OF
which Thomas III. Phair Of Presque Isle.
the starch king, operates 10 Last year
the total output was shout 1000 tons.
while the average yearly demand 10 the
United States Is but from IL 900 20 IL 900
tons. Starch is in universal use but q
little of ii goes great ways. Last year,
however, there was too much starch
manufactured. and IL Ia probable that
this years output win be considerably
