Some Potato Crop figures

: on
"Three groups Of states make up
what is popularity known as the
merchantable surplus Of potatoes
for the autumn and winter market, =
saws Albert w. Fulton, in the Orange
Judd Farmer, in review Of the po-
tato crop ofs19lO.
The first Of these comprises Michi-
gan. Wisconsin, Iowa and Minnesota.
and shows a material shortage Of the
crop compared with last years real
| ly liberal yield.
The next group includes New
York, Pennsylvania and Ohio, al
ways in the forefront, and the terri.
tory where the science Of potato
growing has been brought down to
a fine point and where this years
crop is good one both in bulk and
quality.
The third surplus crop group is
New England, and this means chief
! " Maine, where the acreage is near
" a full one and the crop. as a
whole, slightly larger than year
ago.
In the central west and northwest
there is deficiency compared with
normal, particularly in the Dako-
tas and Nebraska. Throughout the
great stretches Of the northwest it
is case Of drouth much of the time.
Summarizing the situation, it is
noted that in the central west and
northwest the potato crop is short,
while in the older middle and east
ern states a reasonably good yield is
assured. Taking the country as a
whole, the crop, although a reason
ably good one. is behind that Of 1909.
AS to quality, potatoes run some
what uneven in size, but are gen.
orally sound.
Now as to few figures compiled
by the Orange Judd Farmer. The
total production of potatoes in the
northwestern states of Michigan,
Wisconsin, Iowa and Minnesota in
1910 is estimated at 56.428, 900
bushels, as compared with 1882
900 bushels in 1909. The middle
northern states of New York, Penn
sylvania and Ohio are given 84.483,-
600 bushels, as compared with 3d.
456, 900 bushels in 1909. The New
England states are given "a ,564 600
bushels, as against 33 ,692, 900 BUSH
els, last year. The production of Il
linois was put down at 10, 153, 900
bushels, as against 1920, 900 bush
els last year; Colorado, 1859, 900
bushels, as against 7,28O,000 last
year; Indiana, $685., 900 bushels, as
against 1885, 0G bushels last year.
The state of Washington is Gre
dited with 4,125,OOO bushels this
year, as against 5, 100000 last year,
and Oregon with 4.95O.0OO. as
against 1890. 900 bushels in 1909.
The total crop Of potatoes Of the
United States in 1910 is figured out
at 285, O58, 900 bushels, as against
315, $4,000 bushels in 1909; 261,-
937, 900 bushels in 1908, and 275,-
1877 900 bushels in 1907.

Il wonder how the Mayor Gaynors and

jovial youth. DO you suppose that they
arose on the morning of the Fourth late
as ever, dressed carefully and took down
their histories to read the Declaration OF
Independence, followed by careful scrut-
my of the constitution, which was then
still intact? Did they follow this up with
a game of croquet, march after the band to
the picnic grove. where the town orator
spouted some infammatory cuff and then
risk their lives eating watermelon and pier
OF course they didn't handle dynamite

What do you think about the sane
Fourth?' asked Friend wife.
I'm Just crazy about it," said the Tired
Business Man. cor else it's the heat, l
don't know. Believe me, an examining
board of patriotic small boys-or, at least
lhotic small boys-would probably find
that the so-called sane Fourth was suf-
fering from stupidorous melancholia and
ought to be confined to England and other
foreign asylums for the unpatriotic. Any
schoolboy who's up on American history
and geography will tell you that Paris by
it's river, is the only place to spend a Seine
Fourth. Oofl
still, when the saving of fingers and
toes is computed, Wen find that this
Fourth was not so painful I'm the extreme
II may be a disappointment for the boy
who holds onto the handle of a lighted
skyrocket, looking for directions on the
handle, but think what a relief it will be
to the many aviators who now clutter our
skies and who feared TO take their BIZ
planes out for an aerial romp, fearing some
rogulsh person would attempt a little by
playing like shooting a screecher through
the front wing. The conquest of the air
marked the doom of aerial fireworks. be-
cause we can't afford to spare ambulance
surgeons from their usual work of tying
up late sites of hands to hurry around with
dustpans scraping promising aviators off
the spot X where they struck after the
flying machine was punctured.
Along about July fifth each year
national movement is started for a sane
Fourth The nation is in a receptive mood
for such a proposition at that time.
THE only opponents of the cause can't
hear the arguments anyway, because their
heads are usually done up in bandages
which also prevent their talking against
the movement for conserving fingers and
eyes. The movement flourishes grandly
during the winter months and continues to
occasionally simmer and sizz until about
the first of July, when the relatives OF the
sane Fourth begin to notice queer and IA
mliar symptoms. Along about the third
of July all neighbors are talking about the
eccentric actions of the patient and by
morning the Fourth is usually raving again.
