Potato Production,
ImpOrtotiOoS and
Expectations

Recent discussions with reference to
importations of potatoes into the Unit.
ed States lend interest to a statement
compiled by the Bureau of Foreign
and Domestic Commerce Of the Depart
ment of Commerce showing the i'm.
ports and exports Of this class Of mer.
chandise during long term of years.
It shows that the largest importation
of potatoes in any single year occurr-
ed in the fiscal year 1912, when the
total quantity imported was Is 3-4 mil
lion bushels, the next largest being in
1909. 1-3 million bushels, and in 1902,
Z % million bushels. The total guam
tity imported since 1900 is practically
81 million bushels and the quantity ex-
ported in the same period, 16 million
bushels, the total production in the
United States during that period hav.
ing been over 4 million bushels, or an
average of approximately 300 million
bushels per annum, the figures of re-
cent years averaging about 800 million
bushels per annum except in years of
abnormally short crops.
The largest importations of potatoes
naturally occur in years of short crops
in the United States. The high record
importation, that of the fiscal year
1912, 10 "a million bushels, followed
a short crop in the calendar year 1911,
when the total production was but 293
million bushels, against 349 million
bushels in the year Immediately pre-
ceding; that of 1909, 1-3 million bush.
els, followed a short crop of 279 mil.
lion bushels in 1908, against 29S mil.
lion in the year Immediately proceed.
ing; and that of the fiscal year 1902,
7 % million bushels, followed crop
of but 1873 million bushels in the calen'
dar year 1901, against I'll million in
1900 There have been five occasions
since 1900 on which the imports of po
tatoes exceeded one million bushels
per annum and seven years in which
the exports have exceeded one million
bushels per annum, those Of 1911 and
1913 exceeding two million bushels.
The average import price of the pc
tatoes imported has ranged from Al
cents per bushel in 1902 to $1.09 in
1907 and $1.O8 in 1911, the average
price n1912, the year the largest i'm
portations, being 81 cents per bushel
and in 1913, SO cents per bushel. The
average export price has ranged from
81 cents per bushel to $1.14, the aver
age farm price, according to the fig
ures of the Department of Agriculture
having ranged from 43 cents in 1906
to 80 cents in 1911 and SO cents in
1913. '
England, Scotland, and Ireland are
the chief sources of supply of the pc
tatoes imported. OF the 13 3-4 million
bushels imported in 1912, % million
came from Scotland, IL million from
Ireland, and 8 1-3 million from Eng
land. The other principal countrie:
from which potatoes were imported II
1912 were: Belgium, 1886 thousand
bushels; France 243 thousand; Canada
143 thousand; Bermuda, 1872 thousand
and Netherlands, 122 thousand.

Portraits or EmeraIds.

Emeralds have often been made use
of for the cutting of portraits. They
are among the hardest of stones, and
so stand the work better than their
fellows. The Roman Emperor Had
rian had his likeness engraved upon
great persons; and the portrait which
perhaps many have seen advertised
as the only true portrait of our Saw
ior is said to be a faithful copy of
one found engraved or an emerald of
very ancient date.

Texas Letter From Mrs. Arch Brown.
To Mrs. Efie Trautwein.

10 MIS-. Efhe Trautwein.
Rails, Texas, Oct. 81, 1914.
Dear Sister Received your letter
and will answer right away. We
have been busy gathering peanuts the
last week. Arch planted what he
thought we would want for our own
use and for seed next year. So far
we have picked off thirteen big tubs
full and have lots more to pick.
Arch and Eddie have been helping
with them during the last week as
it rained for four days and made it
impossible to thresh, but the ma
chine will start again in few days.
The weather is lovely now, 1t
seems just like spring time in Wis
consin, the birds are singing and
there are so many of them
We planted lettuce this morning.
Our tomato vines are just full of nice
big tomatoes again. The first crop
was immense we had all we needed
and l gave quite few to the neigh
bors. The chickens helped put them
away too.
Yes, we can raise all the vege-
tables we raised back there and
some that we couldn't raise there.
Sweet potatoes grow so we'll and at
tain such a size. Irish potatoes also
do we'll. l wish you could see the
watermelons we have fed to our hogs.
The other day Mrs. Clark sent US
nice pumpkin pie for dinner and in
return l sent her some fresh pork
sausage. Oh we're living nigh
sweet potatoes, fried chicken, roast
wild duck, homemade peanut butter
and we have freshly roasted peanuts
whenever we want them.
The children are going to school
and they are doing nicely especially
Archie; he seems so changed; he is
getting more of Edith's school spirit,
he can have his lessons and a good
time too.
We will have the threshers in a
few days. We will thresh sixty-fve
acres of maize and kafir corn, the
rest we headed. Eddie cut some
maize planted July 20th we did not
expect crop from this, Arch planted
it more to use as green iced and to
prepare the ground for fall wheat but
the maize, turned out a very good
crop after all.
The old ground here yields from
thirty-five to seventy bushels an acre
and the braking yields about thirty
bushels.
There isn't much old ground in
this neighborhood but there is about
two thousand acres of new land under
cultivation. Most of this belongs to
northern farmers. We intend to
cultivate two hundred acres next year,
and leave the rest for pasture. Mr..
Frank OFT has n W car and he is
going to bring his wife and Mr.. and
Mrs. John Seipp over from Plainview
for a visit. We will certainly enjoy
having them come.
Whenever anyone leaves back here
for another state the story spreads
that they are starving. Arch wond
ers if they have started the story
about us if they have, tell them not
to worry but just come out here and
eat a meal with US; it will DE all
home produce and good enough for
anyone. Well it is getting late so
will close with love from all the
Brownies. As ever your sister

FAIR COMMISSIONERS
ACT AS MUSIC CRITICS

To take a few hours time from bust
ness and adopt the roles of critics of
music, is a most pleasing and enter.
tanning departure, according to
Messrs. Williams, Wise, and Efinger
of the Hawaii fair commission. That
is what the commissioners are doing
just now, but 1t must be realized that
there Is considerable hard work con-
nected with this new pastime.
It Is up to the fair commission just
now to select quintet-or sextet-
which it may be assured will render
appropriate Hawaiian music In the
territory's building at the Panama
Pacific Exposition in San Francisco
in 1915. The members of the COM
mission now are engaged in trying
out a number of local musical organi-
zations who have entered bids for the
Hawaii building contract, and last
night Commissioners Williams, Wise
and Effinger went to the Moana Ho.
tel where Kaai's orchestra played in
the presence of about 500 persons.
A meeting of the commission will
be held Thursday afternoon at /
O'Clock, at which time it is expected
the contract will be awarded. The
commissioners have stated that Ha-
waiian music will be one of the big
features of the Hawaiian building, and
for this reason they are going to
make careful selection when award
ing the contract.
