Potatoes More Profitable
to Farmers Than Tobacco

Hallam, Pa, Sept. 15.-Probably
the largest potato yield harvested in
this section of York county was that
of William DietZ, whose crop is 1900
bushels. The crop of w. w. Wilson
now being packed will average more
than 500 bushels to the acre. Farm
ers will devote more acreage to the
cultivation of tubers next year, they
say, casting tobacco aside. Larger
returns are obtained from growing
potatoes, and in addition to requir-
ing less work the spuds are not sub
ject to damage by storm, as is the
tobacco.
