The writer has discussed this situa-
ton with many prominent growers and
dealers, and all are agreed that our pres
ent system of handling potatoes should
be changed SO that at least for the dura-
ton of the war, the potato crop of Idaho
can be shipped in bulk. If this can be
done-and we see no legitimate reason
why it cannot-the largest single item in
the cost of producing potatoes in Idaho
will have been eliminated. 1t is not too
early now to make arrangements for
such a change. A serious shortage OF
potatoes in the United States this year
would be a calamity, but growers should
not be expected to produce potatoes at
a loss; hence, every possible step should
be taken to increase the yield of potatoes
and at the same time to decrease the
cost of putting the crop on the market.

reports show last years acreage of

as indicated by the reports, is thirty
five per cent from last years plant

ing which will give US 3O268 acres
of potatoes in Idaho, approximately
the same as that of 1916.

There are several reasons for the
slump in the acreage of potatoes. The
most potent factor undoubtedly is the
reaction which always follows a crop
which causes loss to the grower. Short
age OF cars and uncertainty of the labor
situation together with the fixed price
of wheat also contribute to the leaving
of potato growing off the farm pro-
gram.
