Potato Loss in Idaho is One Million
BusheI

Potato Loss In Idaho Is One Million
Bushel
The potato loss in Idaho this sea-
son viii, total 100000 bushels, ac-
cordine to E. r. Bennett, state hor-
ticulturist with the agricultural ex-
tension department of the state un-
iversity.
He had estimated the production
for the state at 100000 bushels
some weeks ago. Therefore his esti-
mate OF loss due to the cold weather
in October means that Idaho will
market BUT 100000 bushels of
spuds.
Professor Bennett has visited the
different potato growing districts Of
the Snake river valley during the
last three weeks.
The principal losses have occurred
from Burley and Rupert north and
east up the valley to st. Anthony, he
says.
He reports that growers in the
Idaho Falls district were forced to
pay as high as $3.50 a day for la
Dor when harvesting the crops.
"At Idaho Falls saw as many as
so men standing about on the streets
unwilling to work unless they could
get excessive wages. and when they
were paid the price they demanded
many would not work more than one
or two days.
"These men are not T. W. W.,
but ordinary American laborers who
float about from place to place"
According to Professor Bennett the
potato vines in the Idaho Falls dis
trict remained green until October
IT, when a killing frost came. The
growers got into their fields as early
as possible after the frost, but the
labor shortage made 1t impossible for
them tog ather their potatoes before
the second killing frost came October
81.
He thinks that many potatoes will
not be worth the digging.
The horticulturist says trees In
apple orchards in the Twin Falls dis.
trict are breaking down with fruit
that will never be picked because II
was ruined by the freeze.
There, as at Idaho Falls, the short
age of labor made 1t impossible fol
the growers to get their apples out
of the orchards before the cold snaI
caught the fruit.
