Tacoma-The predicted advance in
,otato prices came sooner than expect
ID, the vegetable this week going to
1876 ton. Dealers say prices will go
till farther upward and will in all
reach $40 within the next
ew days. Dealers explain that other
Uses are certain because the holders in
Eastern Washington are demanding $50
! ton for the tuhers in the field. At
hat price it costs commission men
lere $33 to lay ton down and they !
.annot sell with reasonable profit at ,
1876, they say. The supplies in East
I'm Washington are now pretty we'll ,
leaned up, it is reported. ,
