PROBABLE TRADE WITH CHILL
Dr. Eduardo Carrasco Bascunan. one
Of the Chilan delegates to the Pan-Amer-
team Scientific Congress. has been dele
gated by his Government to remain over
In Philadelphia and visit the Baldwin
Locomotive Works and the J. g. Brill
Company's plant with n view to future
business. He is also to visit the Curtis
Publishing Company plant. The man
ager OF the Bureau of Foreign and Do
nestle Commerce, in connection with the
Philadelphia Cham err O. Commerce, says
that railway is hcing projected from
Santiago Chilli, to Pana Flor, n distance
OF Il miles, and he thinks it a good OPP
portunity for capitalists in this country
to make a good Investment, and thus
further the commerce between the United
States and Chill by supplying the neces-
sary equipment for this road. He says
that Pana Flor Is the market garden for
Santiago, and furnishes virtually all the
produce for that city. This road, he
claims, would transport this produce and
replace the carts and W. .gons now in use.
There would be also very large pas
senger traffic.

at 359, 10000 bushels. a shortage of over
| A6VVhVOO bushels as compared with last
year TO begin With Add to this II 900 900
bushels produced by the South to supply
the early market until the regular crop
arrives.
The facts are that the Souther. farm
ers had an enormous yield last year and
got such poor prices that they are cul-
tivatlng more acreage for cotton this
year. cotton bringing good prices. AM
other matter. the potash fertilizers neces-
sary for the growth OF potatoes in the
South cannot he had at any price. In
1872 we imported from Europe 1900 OCO
bushels but none since on account OF
potato disease In European countries.
Nov the embargo has been taken away
from Denmark, the Netherlands and Bel
Eium. but We will got no potatoes from
these countries until the latter part of
1915, II we get any then The embargo
sun remains on potatoes from Great
Britain. and the other countries of Eu-
rope will need all they produce for them
selves, so there can be no relief through
imports
Potatoes :or the Philadelphia market
come from Maine New York state,
Michigan, Wisconlin and Minnesota The
New England states have not enough to
supply themselves and for spring seed
New York State produced 53.2iJ,OOO
bushels in 1914 and % 100000 bushels in
1918. Michigan produced lt04i,ooo bushels
in 1914 and 20.90jO 900 i'm 1915, Minnesota
has had a normal crop in 1915.
The present situation Il l. the outlook
are worse than in 1912. when potatoes
went to Sl.I5 a bushel wholesale. and
when we were 250O00O bushels short.
Potatoes are quoted today wholesale
in Philadelphia at $l.20 to %. The West
Is quoting options for delivery in Feb
ruary and March Mt $3.50.
There are III carloads of potatoes in
Philadelphia today. The fresh arrivals
~ not equal to the daily demands. Yes
terday ~ carloads were emptied and the
arrivals today are only 10 cars. There
Is no hope of n supply from Canada, as
the crop there is short and We must
depend on ourselves. When we dealers
pay the present high prices demanded
by the farmers. and the heavy freight
charges. we don't clear cents u bushel
