Hinh Price for Potatoes.

Denver.-A Greeley dispatch We'd
nesday night says: The predictions of
the farmers that the price of potatoes
would reach 81 per hundred, the high
est price in years, proved true today
when Pearl potatoes, representing
three-fourths of the crop, advanced to
81 and Rurals to s1.05. Notwithstand-
ing the high prices, the markets are
calling for more and dealers can hardly
fill orders, which are coming mostly
from Texas and Oklahoma. Growers
are confident prices will continue to
increase still further. About $500 car.
loads remain in the district.

of her glossy, smooth-looking starch:
when it came to good boil she add
ed a small piece of butter the size of
a walnut. This not only gives a nice
finish, makes ironing easier, but pre-
vents the starch from boiling over.
