+. W. King was in our vicinity dur
ing the past week, buying potatoes
from our farmers. The potatoes i'll this
section are of a good quality and uni
form size, thus enabling the buyers to
pay top market price for them. Ship
ments will be made from here this week
to Joliet Ill. The price paid for the
carloads purchased last week was $50
per hundred. This of course makes
the sale price of 80 cents per busheI
or within 10 cents per bushel of what
the farmers have been holding their
crop for 1t is the understanding
among several of the growers that they
will place potatoes on the market at
$1.00 per bushel. but in view of the
present situation several of the grow
ers are turning their potatoes at this
time at prices above mentioned.
