TO SHIP SEED

 The lowly potato that a. few years ago sold for 50 cents a bushel7 is now bringing from $3.75 to $4 a bushel. The prospects of. a. drop in the near future are very 2. slim, according. to Clark &, Rogers, the wholesale pro duce men on Water street.
 The northern shippers, who have abundant supplies, have been prevent ed by the extreme cold weather of the past few months from shipping the tubers to market as the chances are that they would be frozen on arrival
 MT. Clark says that he has received reliable Information from Maine thai there is still in stock there over one third of last years crop and shipping will begin again -as soon as the weather -moderat es- A large" part of the potatoes on hand will be used for seed purposes and very few that are designed for table use will come through until the shippers finish send ing fers seed potatoes He does not look for any drop in price until after the demand for seed has been filled.
 The new crop of -sou thern potatoes is very late ethis; year and the price is so high that no one in this city can afford tosl1andle them. They, are now selling at 5.15 .zcents pound wholesale, which would mean $9 a kushel or $2.25 a peck.

 From a survey of the market con ditions MT. Clark does not|look for a drop in price until the potatoes from the southern states begin to ar rive in quantities, and that will not be until the latter part of May.

 Failure of the department to throw the tul force of the navy into the struggle, he said. resulted in the ssun- necessary loss of 1,5Oe, 00eg tons of shipping by submarine attack in 1917 and 1000, 900 tons in 1918.
