FOR POTATOES GROWERS

New light is thrown on old ques-
tions in the marketing of main crop
potatoes, in farmers bulletin 1917,
Just published by the United States
department OF agriculture. The an
4 swers are based on the combined ex-
perience of marketing experts IN
many sections during recent market
seasons.
How, when and where to market
potatoes are the practical questions
asked. They include hundreds OF re-
lated queries which growers are ask
ing about the selling end of the po-
tato business. The replies neces-
sarily make reference to production
and to- the conditions and methods In
the great shipping sections and to
harvesting, grading, packing, load
! ing and shipment. They show which
are the principal markets for nine
prominent producing regions and
what are the conditions, require
Ements, business methods and special
features in q dozen great city
4 markets.
4 The bulletin turns q sidelight on
activities of the dealers at buying
time; why they buy or wait, and how
often as a class the dealers win or
lose as q result of the prevailing sea-
sons business policy. It explains
what faults the inspectors usually
find in shipments of potatoes and
how to avoid them and save freight
on inferior and unstable stock.
Careful grading is considered one OF
the main items on which success de-
ponds.
A One Of the most striking conclu-
MONS is shown in barometer style;
how prices tend upward when yield
8oes down, how the crop and its
may be planed ACCORDING
40 the various indications from cror
and market reports. The reader is
Told where and how the free reports
md summaries are to be had and
low to use them.
sE FOrecasting Situation
lS Evidently to forecast the market
Situation is a matter of shrewdne ss
and experience. The outlook for q |
day or a week or a season depends
somewhat on conditions taking shape |
IA the present. The reader of crop !
md market news soon learns to look
~ certain changes under given con-
SItions and in time becomes able to
%oigh the market Importance of
Whatever happens in the main pro-
dHcing sections and in the great con-
apming market centers. He is able
then to plan his acreage intelligently
and to handle the crop with some re-
eerd to the situation and outlook.
The result benefits all classes in the
100 v.rrp ha q nrifu nfl
bnyers and sellers are equally in
formed, there is little opportunity for
few to gain unfair advantage.
E3fces thus tend to become more uni

The outlook is per cent above
1922 and "a per cent above the five
year average.
Wisconsin
Crop estimate to be 81 per cent of
last years harvest. This reduction
is brought about by cut of IT per
cent in acreage and by lower condi-
ton. The forecast is for 81 million
bushels as compared to Al million
bushels last year and 21 million
bushels in 1921.
Wyoming
The crop is forecasted at $3.50, 900
bushels. Last years crop was esti-
mated at 100000 bushels and the
five year average production is
1,788,000 bushels. Potato bugs are
bad in many sections and the outlook
Is only fair to many of the growers.
The dry land seed crop is good.
An increase of eleven million,
bushels in the estimated yield of po-
tatoes is forecast in the government
figures which place the production at
39O,O0O,000 bushels as compared
with 379 million bushels in August. |
