Philadelphia Regord. More pounds of potatoes than of any other food are consumed, by the Eu- ropean and English-speaking“peoples as a whole. All cvur 48 states can graw potatoes, yields of 100 to 200 bushels an uere, with as much as 800 bushels in- fauey farming, put - to shame the 14 to 209 bushels of wheat grown on an acre. And vet the commission merchants thing in the market. In the seven- year period from 1913 they have in- creased in retail price \853 per cent. In 1916 consumers were alarmed at $1.80. bushels, but this seagon $6 a bushel and 35 to 40 cents a quarter per peck prevail. ee people talk of coal famine, sugar famine. und they are But the real thing is a potato famine. For example, Ireland in '48,. muns during the war feared no eco- nomic disaster like a failure 'of the potato crop. Realizing the vital po- sition of > potatoes, about twice as many bushels to the acre as we do, and «three, -or four \times cour total. 'And, the German consumption in some places, they live on potatbes as some (frien tuls do on riéeem~is 25 bushels a year per person, while our consumption is ealzx_three or. four bushels per capita. i* that +when duce will) have to yield to potatoes that produce two to twenty times the best the others can do. A wheat field pork produce miserably compared with the hundreds of bushels of potatoeg per ucre.. R Potatoes won \fearful\ respect in 1916 when a poor American crop of 286:9534,000 bushels was flirting around %2 a bushel. The next crop of 442,108.000 bushels eased the situation. In 1918 the country produced 400,000,- 00 bushels and last year $58$%,000,000. Reduction \in the acredge planted last year was attributed to high prices for potata seed and the farm labor short- age. f The plain potato is the romance of the markets. The farmer considers his potato cultivation his most specu- lative work. The ups and downs are so great that he is afraid to plant a large acreage the first year following big prices. And retail prices follow wholesale up and down more prompt- ly in potatoes than in almost any oth- er produce. And today <the potato shows a greater increase in price than any other article recorded by the de- partment of statistics of the Depart- ment of labor. 20.

Aroogtook county, Maine, without |- any comparison in this country as to potato fame, yields on an average over 200 bushels to the acre, while New York, Pennsylvania and New, Jersey get only half as much per acre. In European countries yields of more than 400 per acre have been recorded. True, potato is 75 per cent water, but it has also 18.8 per cent starch, pint of milk.or seven ounces of bréad.

The many friends of the Hosleys in and about Cuba, where the faxpily formerly resided, will agait with inter- est news of the outcome of this series of very unusual operations. e You can avoid a good deal of bad luck by working steadily during the day, behaving yourself, and, going to bed early. ee atime =~ nn If you didn't say \no\ pretty often your money wouldn't last long.. - @ motile Gyre mmr Kven modest men hesitate to hide their past if it's going to get them anything in the present. » pla meneame en -> t O« The Market Bka‘sket 26 West Maln Street O WEEK-END SPECIALS.
