POTATOES

During August, the crop dropped off
some 81 600 bushels, due principally
to unseasonably hot weather the first
twenty days. Since that time there
have been rains and good growing
weather throughout the commercial
districts. The outlook now is for g.
$4,000 bushes. while the 1919 crop
totaled 100000 bushels. Growers re-
port that the tubers have seemed slow
to set; that there are not many in a
hill. and that the yield of Russets will
not be heavy as expected, although

Although practically all of Idaho's
staple crops registered losses from
their August prospects, still they have
comfortable lead over their 1919 per-
Torrance and present indications are
that the total volume of crop produc-
ton will be the largest in the history
of the state. Hay. wheat, oats. corn,
potatoes, beets and prunes are on
hand with unusually large crops. The
barley. apple. pea. bean and other
crops are not record breakers. still
they are very substantial and eonsid-
erably better than 1919.

condition of 95 per cent forecasts a
production of o0o,720 bushes. that is,
if the entire acreage were cut for

cut for ensilage, report of which
will be given next month. On the
same basis, $4,000 bushels was the

A recovery of one point in condi-

outlook at harvest time was for g.
