USUAL ACREAGE
OF POTATOES
Present Price Works Two WAYS
In Influencing Growers
Good Seed Pays

County Agent Leo Schoepf is of the
opinion that the usual acreage of pO-
tatOes will be planted this spring.
With Il favorable season ahead for the
production Of the tubers, it is antici-
pated that there will be the usual crop
to- dispose of next fall and winter. With
cheap seed and gamblers chance for
a fair market. the temptation to plant
literally in this county. with its
adaptable potato soil. will appeal to
many farmers. Notwithstanding recent
and present market experiences.
Some of the larger growers. whose
unpleasant experiences with last sea-
sons crop cost them much lost effort,
will plant but few, if any. potatoes
this spring. it is reported. Mr.. SchOepf
says the variations in total yield from
year to year is accounted for more by
the difference in yield per acre than
in the difference in acreage
Fay Head. buyer here for Leonard,
CrosSctt & Riley. says that he has in
formation that South Dakota farmers
are going to plant Il largely Increased
acreage this spring. This is accounted
for partly from the foul condition of
much of the land in that state. and
the farmers want to put in crops they
can cultivate.
Good Stock Attracts Attention
That il pays 10 plant good seed and
give the resultant crop careful and
intelligent attention and handling is
shown by an incident related by Mr..
Head. He shipped Il carload of pOta
toes during the winter in which were
200 bushels Of very nice potatoes
grown by O. j. HagcmOen. who farms
across the river from st. Mary's hos
pital These 200 bushels were extra
fine potatoes and they sold the car
load. The cOnsignee at Waupaca
wrote Mr. Head that they were the
best lot he had seen during the season,
up to that time, and Waupaca is the
heart Of the potato district Of Wis
cOnSin.
When Mr.. Head cleaned up the
warehouse. he shipped a carload of
odds and ends in potatoes to Gin
cinnati In the lot was Grated bushel
of Mr. Hagemoen's potatoes. When
they were received I'm Cincinnati this
particular bushel Of potatoes caught
the eye Of Mr.. Leonard. president of
the Leonard. CrOssett & Riley COM
pany. He was so much interested in
them that he wrote to his buyer here
to learn who grew them and where
they were grown.
