SPUD CROP SHORT
IN !. s. THIS YEAR


Often in the past potato prices in
ashington have fluctuated consid-
erably throughout the year. There
have been times when the actual sup
ply was short. and from the begin
ming of the year prices should have
continued high, but the placing on
the market of practically the entire
crop during the short space of few
weeks in the fall, naturally lowered
prices to the farmer. But when 1t
was realized that the years demand
would exceed the supply, prices grad
ually rose until the spread" be-
tween the farmers price in the fall
and the consumers price later in the
year greatly exceeded what should
have been a reasonable margin.

LOUCHNAN ACCIDENT

Asking that $1,000 be allowed for
the total damage to a truck and

F. B. Loughnau, Dewey G. Tough
nan and Roy ]. Loughnan, as sole
survivors of the partnership doing
business under the style and firm
name of F. B. Loughnan & Sons, and
William Howe and George Gum, Jr.,
doing business at the Gum Motor
company, have sued Walker d. Hines,
director general of the United States
railroads, and John Doe Truesdale,
/ engineer.
The complaint states that on June
| 10, 1919, Hutton B. Loughnan was
driving truck. to which was at.
! tached trailer, over a crossing at
Beaver Creek, II miles southeast of
Olympia, when it was struck by a
train, killing the driver. The engi-
neer on the train was John Doe
Truesdale. The plaintiffs claim that
the truck was totally demolished and
that it was worth $5,4OO. They also
claim that there was $4,000 damage
done to their business as result of
the accident.
The plaintiffs further allege that
the accident was due to the reckless
rate of speed miles an hour-at

plant also outlines the condition of
the crossing as very dangerous, since

which shut off the view of the drivers

The case is a follow-up of the case
filed by Mrs. Jessie Loughnan, the
widow of Hutton b. Loughnan, in the
local superior court more than a
month ago. Mrs. Loughnan is ask
ing for 100000 damages. She states
that her husband was making $4,000

that he met his death when struck
by the train on June 10, 1919.
