Experts Says Tobacco Crop Is Short
And Prices Will Advance

The Burley tobacco crop this year
will fall short of the estimate, F.. 7.
Robards, of Henderson, who is being
backed for tobacco commissioner with
headquarters at Louisville, surmised
recently. Instead of bumper crop
of 275, 100000 to 3OO,OOO,OOO pounds
the actual figures will be nearer
25,000,00O pounds or less.
Since the annual consumption de-
mand for Burnley tobacco is about
24O,O00,000, this years crop will
fail to supply the demand. Mr.. Ro-
bards said: The result is that buyers
are running over one another in the
hogshead market to supply their
needs" he declared
The finish will see "some classy
prices" he said. Prices on low grades
are double those of last year and the
tendency is for the higher prices to
climb.

BIG POTATO CROP TO
BE RAISED IN BOISE
ON THE CITY LOTS

It is estimated that city lots aggre-
eating a total of not less than 80 acres
will be planted to potatoes. Council
man Davis has been investigating the
matter of getting seed potatoes. About
300 sacks will be needed and 1t has
been ascertained that the small seed
potatoes can be bought at 1915 per
cwt. Mr.. Davis has located other pota-
toes, but the price quoted on these
ranges from $4.25 to $4.75 per cwt.
The city authorities undertook to
make arrangements for the lots, for
water and to locate the necessary seed.
This has been done and the actual
work of planting will now begin. In
order to get the best results from the
planting, persons undertaking the
work should familiarize themselves
with the cultivation of the various
soils. In some parts Of the city the
demand for irrigation will be greater
than in others and, as many of those
who are to farm the city lots have new
er had experience in potato growing, 1t
will be necessary to give the matter
some study to get the best results.
An average crop of potatoes, grown
under favorable conditions, is said to
be about 200 sacks to the acre. 1t can
readily be seen that, with proper plant
ing and cultivation, Boise will do it's
share to prevent potato famine.
