The price OF potatoes still keeps up,
and on that subject hangs short tale.
Up to about the middle Of the fOrties,
more potatoes were raised than at pres.
emit, and besides being used on the table
were fed to hogs, cattle and sheep; but
they had no commercial value, and no
one thought of selling them at any price.
About the year 1916 the AtwoOds OF
Bucktleld built starch factory at East
Sumner, at the same time making con-
tract with the farmers in the near by
towns to plant piece of ground to
potatoes for the factory, an acre, more OF
less; the price being one shilling pei
bushel.
But the starch industry was not very
successful, since the first year the pOta.
toes rotted so that on many pieces, wher
dnu mora than half nf than were laft or
the ground. And then some people said
it was because they were planted fol
starch instead of for fuod. Be that as il
may they have rotted more or less al
intervals ever sipce.
