BIG FREIGHT RATE
PLAYS HOBS WITH
POTATO FARMERS
Excessive Cost Of Shipping Tubers
Interferes Seriously with
Marketing Crop

Prices of sweet potatoes show soma
upward tendency recently, though
they do not compare at all with the
high level paid during the first start
of digging the early planted. The
market opened at three or four dol
ars per barrel then began to decline
until one dollar and fifty cents was
the general price. When this level
was reached many farmers quit dig.
ging and concluded to let their crop
reach a better state of maturity be-
fore harvesting, following which they
proposed to cure the roots and hold
for higher prices they knew would
come in the late winter or early
spring.
Prices last week, we are Informed,
were slightly better, one dollar eighty
five per barrel being paid, and re-
porter heard one farmer say that that
was a fair figure and he had sold
for that amount and felt reasonably
satisfied.
However, it is said that the exhorbi-
tant freight rates from this place to
Texas points is factor in the price
situation which may have an evil eff
feet on the market in the future. In
this connection it is said that often
the freight charge exceeds the entire
cost of a shipment, and when broker
age and retail profits and other costs
were added the consumer paid ire
mendous price for the potatoes he
purchased for family use. The far
mer's share of the total amount the
consumer pays is very small, the rail-
road getting as much for hauling the
potatoes as do the farmers for pro-
ducing them. In speaking Of this
phase one said that until there is
some radical reduction in freight rat
es the buying and shipping Of pota-
toes will be risky thing indeed.

RED CROSS RESCUED
100000 FROM DEATH
Spent $1,200,Oo0 for Relief Of
Famine Sufferers in China
Last Year.

To help overcome conditions Of acute
distress in FIVE famine stricken prov
inces of Northern China, where mil
lions of persons were affected by an
unprecedented shortage of food, the
American Red Cross during the last
fiscal year spent more than 81 100000,
100000 Of which was contributed d.
recty by National Headquarters and
the remainder by various groups in-
terested In the welfare Of China.
Through the wide relief operations
thus made possible it is estimated that
more than 100000 famine sufferers
were saved from starvation.
To the end that similar prompt re-
lief measures by the organization may
always be possible the Red Cross Is
asking continued support by the Amer
lean people by universal renewal Of
membership at the Annual Red Cross
Roll Call, November IL to "a.
The method Of relief employed by
the American Red Cross In its opera
lions In China was particularly effec-
tive, for in addition to saving hundreds
Of thousands Of lives it provided China
with more than 900 miles Of permanent
roads that are sorely needed to pre-
vent a recurrence Of famine. At one
time the Red Cross employed $4,000
Chinese workmen, paying them in food
for themselves and dependents, this
food being brought in from Manchuria
and elsewhere.
