Huge Surplus Crop
Of Potatoes to Be
Eaten s'Potat0 Week"

With 70,OO0,CC0 pounds of potatoes
in Colorado in danger of being wastes
because of lack OF demand, the U. S
Food Administration has set aside the
week Of April q to 27 us Potato
Week"
The depressing shortage OF whea,
makes Potato Week" particularly
timely, because potatoccs have been
recognized by eminent food authori'
ties as pra".ically equivalent to wheaa
in food values. one medium sized po
tato contains as much nourishment as
one large slice of wheat bread.
Belgium and Italy are starving
France ans England standing off the
German with blood are crying to Am
erica for bread. And every potato
eaten means that much moro wheat
which can be shipped overseas to feed
those who have given all except life
10 stop the invader.
Arrangements are being made with
retail groccrs to put potatoes on the
market at the lowest possible price,
and householders are urged to lay in
as large supply as possible, and
serve them at at least two meals Il
day.
All over Colorado, clubs are serv.
ing Potato" luncheons; domestic
science classes are having Potato
lessons: conservation classes are CIV
ing Potato" demonstrations. Every.
thing, in short, which will encourage
consumers to help save this tremen.
dous 70.0O0.OOO pound potato surplus
is being done.

PLANT FOR VICTORY"
IS HOOvER'S WAR CRY
TO SUGAR BEET MEN

Colorado is up to bat again.
This time the state is facing a
shortage in the production OF sug7
ar beets, and unless she hits the
ball by planting a larger sugar
beet acreage than ever before Vic
tory will swing in the balance
with Defeat.
The price paid the growers last year
for sugar beets was $7.25 q ton. This
year q federal food commission com.
posed Of representative growers and
manufacturers made . Hlas rate Of $40
ton. This rate was decided upon.
not to increase the price Of sugar 20
the consumer or to enrich tie grower.
but to encourage the planting Of sugar
beet. and decrease the danger Of q
sug.i sscrtase In 1919.
The importance Of Increasing Colo
RADIOS sugar beet production during
the coming year was emphasized by
. telegram received by the Colorado
Food Administration April IL, from
Herbert Hoover, federal food admins.
traitor.
The telegram read in part:
-NooA ~N~s
growers. the Food Administration.
through the inquiry OF various com.
missions undertook to use its best Of.
fices to secure price for beets which
would return a fair profit to growers
throughout the beet regions.
THE factories having agreed to pay
the prices recommended and upon .
basis much higher than was before re-
ceived by the growers. and in accord
with the demands of the majority OF
growers I do trust that the growers
will support the nations sugar supply
by enlarged planting.
Our shortage Of shipping and the
necessities of the allies make larger
demands upon our domestic sugar
next year than ever before and the
maintenance of our own Industry is
primary not only to the wcll-being OF
the growers but the nation as
whole"
The fact that the land owners In
beet sections receive onc-fourth of the
gross proceeds of the beet crop, which
on the basis of a sixteen-ton yield
would mean $40 per acre, is counted
on to influence landlords to continue
% raising beet3.
