only every man and woman could be

take place. Instead of the thousands OF
sickly, anaemic-looking men, women

should see virile optimistic throng

Americas Overlooking Spud Bins
Will Be ValueleSs l. Cooks
Don't Get Onto The Job

unload all at once-there can be only
one effect on prices.
So commence to sell your potatoes
now, Mr.. Holder.
And commence to eat more pota-
toes now, Mr.. Consumer.
And prepare to plant another big
potato crop next year, Mr.. Farmer.
Not Up to Farmer
But the latter gentleman cannot
reasonably be expected to heed the
request if he sees the present potato
supply go to waste. So the situation
really hinges now upon two factors
the consumer and the holder. Some
farmers, of course, being included in
the last category. If they will carry
ont their part of the potato program
it will mean that we will have more
food for the armies. 1t will mean an
other big potato planting next year
This years potato crop is Az, 1856, ;
COO bus, according to the latest fig
ures of the Bureau of Crop Estimates
of the United States Department OF
Agriculture-the largest potato crop
this country has ever produced Las.
! year the potato production was only
2S6, 1858, 900 bushels, so we have this
winter 1876, $4,000 more bushels In
the potato bin than we had last win
ter.
The Lakeland evening telegram. (Lakeland, Fla.) 1911-1922, 1918-02-07


and overlooking Our spud supply has
never been so large. But the cook
isn't using the potatoes. A full pota-
to bin is mighty fine thing-if the
potatoes are put to their proper use,
thai is, eaten. But there is occasion
for some anxiety over the slowness
OF the cook The full bin will be of
no benefit if the potatoes remain in
the bin They must get to the kitch-
en- and to the table and be eaten.
Otherwise the bin might as we'll be
erpty
The big potato crop has not been
moving into consumption this win
ter. The bulk of the supply is i'll
storage and is being marketed very
slowly. This is an abnormal condi-
ton, and very serious one-be-
cause it has direct bearing upon
the most serious question in the
world. The question of winning the
war.
Il the potato bin is emptied during
this winter and next spring it will
mean that by eating more potatoes
we eat less bread and therefore have
more wheat to send to the soldiers
who are fighting for our freedom. II
will also mean that the bin will have
room to receive the new potato crop
next fall. But If we fail to empty
it this winter-that is, if we do not
at once, commence to eat more pota
toes than we have been eating, and
commence to market the potatoes
that we have been hoarding-the
market may be glutted when the new
crop comes next summer. If this
happens, there will be more potatoes
than the bin can hold and some of
the supply will go to waste. In turn,
this would discourage producers and
possibly prevent the planting of a
liberal acreage resulting in a short
encd potato supply in a year
from now, at time when food needs
will be even more urgent than they
are now.
What can you do about it?
You can help empty the bin You
can eat more spuds and less bread.
Unjess you do eat more potatoes than
you have been eating the bin will
not be emptied.
Market Steadily
And if you are farmer or a mid
dieman holding potatoes in storage
you can market them, get them to
: moving, get them out of the bin and
l. into the kitchen. Responding to this
I appeal will not mean the sacrifice OF
your personal interests. All you are
asked to do is to market your potato
holdings gradually, steadily during
the winter and spring, so the present
surplus will have been eaten before
the new crop begins to move about
the middle of next June.
| Your prospect of loss-if you are
holding potatoes-is not in commenc
Ing to market now and continuing t.
sell slowly 1t is in failing to dc
this that you stand to lose. For 1
tie bin is not emptied by spring you
may find a glutted market when yo'
do try to sell If when the new crol
is in sight, there remains heavl
hangover of the old crop, and j
there is a scramble of the holders tt
