Potato Shipments On Increase
Potato shipments from the Del

crease. Last Friday was the banner
day so far when five cars were
shipped from the Eastern Shore of
Maryland and one hundred and nine
ty-tWO cars from the Eastern Shore
Of Virginia. The FIVE cars shipped
from the Eastern Shore Of Maryland
are the first to be reported for the

Eastern Shore Of Virginia up to Sat
urday reached 1921 cars as compar-
ed with 2172 cars for the CORE
spending period last year.
Last season carload shipments |
from the Eastern Shore Of Mary |
land totaled 1882 and from the Eas-
tern Shore of Virginia 1O.440 car
loads. Farmers throughout lower
Delaware have not started to dig 1
their 'spuds" for shipment. In fact,
the season has been so unfavOrable
and the crop so light that it is like
ly that there will be but few ship
ments Of the early crop.
Prices in the large markets have
declined somewhat within the past
few days.
