CLAY COUNTY Sent
OUT $500 CARS
POTATO OUTPUT or THIS YEAR
NEARLY 100000 RusHELs
BANK DRAFTS TELL THE
sToRY-sRRINa SHIPMENTS TO
BE MADE.

From ectual figures and the closest
estimates bankers and shippers can
make. there have been nearly 2.eoo
cars OF potatoes shipped from the Inn
mense nAlds Of Clay county this sea-
son and that means not Lass than
100000 bushels. The big spring
shipments OF seed potatoes are yet to
be made and they will aggregate not
less than 2Eo,o bushels. This win
easily bring no tina total output Of po-
tstoes for seed and eating purposes
from Clay county this year to up
wards Of 100000 bushels. the esti-
mate made by the big growers and
shippers earlier in the season.
The Moorhead National bank. this
fall. has handled 426 drafts for potato
shipments and each draft represented
car load OF potatoes. From inquir-
les made by the bank officials, the
business at this bank represented about
fifth OF the total shipments made
from points tributary to the potato
fields OF Clay county and tributary to
Moorhead. ! Sabin, Constocl and
GAINESVILLE banking points for pota-
to growers and shippers. One Of the
biggest dealers in Clay county handles
his own drafts, sending the latter to
the bank of destination himself so that
this business does not go through the
banks of the county and it represents
several hundred cars OF the seasons
output
According to one of the big dealers
In Moorhead, his total shipments so
far have been SEQ cars, and, he con-
siders that he has done about one
tenth of the business Of the county.
If that shippers estimate is right, and
In past years he has hit the bulls
eye always, that means an output of
1900 cars out Of Clay county, the
queen OF the potato sections in north
ern Minnesota

ell in American markets and strength
in Winnipeg, together with the clos

terday caused shorts in December to

forecast is for light shipments from
Argentine and India this week and

early buyers of December realized and
this month declined " with the rest
of the market u to % lower than

and rather pressed for sale. During
the entire session shorts seemed will
ing TO cover on all recessions and
with the exception Of December which
was nervous the market was dull and
fairly well supported. The outlook
in Canada regarding quality and flu
ture supplies is causing some appre-
hension. At 1880 D. m. the market

traders sold 100000 bushels short on
yesterdays bulge and took the snap
out of the market. They were instru-
mental In forcing Constock and sew
era1 other bulls who bought early, into
unloading at the close. 1t is said that
the Dit element were short at the I'm
ish. Those who were bearfsh talk an
increased country movement with fav-
orable weather, while the bulls say
that there will be a demand for all
that is moved. A number Of the local
traders say that when corn moves in
volume 1t is time to buy 1t for the
long pull, but they want to see how
it VIII be taken before they load up.
One feature that is regarded as against
the bull In the general belief that corn
will sell very high. Old traders say
that when everyone knows that corn
should go up ii is time to look at the
other side Of the market.
