The production OF potatoes IN tne
United States for the same year was
APO, CAT, 1000 and in Canada "a, 1856, 900
bushels.
The removal of the duty of Is cents a
bushels opened the United States to the
potato producing countries of the world.
The cost per bushel for freight from
European shipping points to cities on the
American Atlantic seaboard is less than
the cost of shipping potatoes from Aroos-
took county to these same American
ports. Naturally the farmer in Maine
will suffer.
There will be lessened demand and
reduced price for his product, but there
will be no change in the price to the cuss
toner, for the importer and the jobber
will take the profit and the farmer stands
the loss"
John A. Roberts, Maine Commissioner
of Agriculture, who has thoroughly in
vestigated this matter, declares that the
farmers of Maine will this year have the
biggest crop of potatoes on record and
yet, as a result of the removal of pro-
lection. they may find lessened demand
and be forced to sell them at loss. 1t
is the way the Underwood tariff bill has
hit the farmer and particularly the pota-
to raiser of the State of Maine.

MAINE POTATO RAlsEKs HIT.

Maine. famous for her potatoes not
only in all parts of the United States but
all over the world, is in grave danger of
loosing her prestige in the cultivation OF
this much needed vegetable. Potatoes
grown in foreign countries threaten to
make great inroads into the market that
would otherwise be supplied with Ameri-
can-grown vegetables, and particularly
with the State of Maine potatoes raised
in Aroostook county. Already the farm
ers of Maine have felt the effect OF the
free importation of potatoes upon their
farming operations. In 1913, the United
States produced 331, 535, 900 bushels of
potatoes. Of these the State CT Maine
alone raised %, 100, 900. She stood fourth
among all the States Of the Nation and
produced practically one-twelfth OF all
that were grown in the country.
The duty of rs cents pushel has been
taken off foreign-raised potatoes. They
are raised in greater quantities and at
less expense per acre abroad than in the
United States, The result has been just
what those who knew the situation fore
saw. During the first seven months
after the duty was removed, the impor-
tation of potatoes was 20 times greater
than during the corresponding seven
months the previous year when they had
been protected by the duty of rs cents
bushel. The following figures for 1912,
the latest available, will show the i'm
mense number that have been produced
in the countries of Europe, millions of
bushels of which have been sent to tie
