From reports reaching The Herald the potato acreage of Ilox Dutle county will be smaller durnig 1919 than in 1918. Farmers who raised large amounts of potatoes in the county last year will plant again this year, but not on so large a scale. The wheat -acreage will be much larger, as will corn. Keporta from f e big potato cen ters and markets, as given by the Packer, for last week, were as fol lows: Chicago Hotter 11 Week CHICAGO. While the potato market was on a higher basis last week there was no ..marked strength to the situation and with the excep tion of one day values remained on about on-, even keel. There has been a fairly good call from both local and outside buyers but the receipts have continued lib eral bo that buyers usually have been dictating the terms. The difference of opinion continues among the members of the trade as to what the future of the market Is. There are bulls and bears, and still others on the fence, but many seem of the opinion that there are fewer cars of potatoes yet back In the country man has been generally estimated. With a lighter production this year than last the movement this season . to date is heavier than a year ago and with a short late crop of southern stock some of the shippers expect old atock to 'clean up at fairly stiff prices. Wednesday Minnesota and' Wis consln bulk No. 1 round whites were auotabU at 11.75 and $1.85 and sacked stock at 11.65 and $1.75 per cwt. Idaho Russets brought $2 and 12.06. IlecelDts were 43 cars. Thursday trading was moderate with Drtces unchanged. RecelpU were 35 cars and there was a total of 2-00 cars on all tracks. The market Friday was easier with prlceB 6c lower on all varieties Receipts were aDout 40 cars. Minnesota Market Firmer MINNEAPOLIS. The potato mar ket developed a stronger tone last week and prices were somewhat higher. The wire Inquiry has been exceptionally heavy and a good many sales are being made. Some opera tors say they will not be able to fill all their orders as they haven't enough stock in the warehouses to uo so and the prospect of getting more looks pretty dark for roads are well nigh Impassable. Several in stances In the growing sections of i mis state have been cited where far I uiers have been caught on the sticky 1 roads with heavy loads, and trucks I would sink in the mire up to the ax ' lea. In the northern part of this 1 state and Wisconsin the road ques I tion takes on a new aspect. Most of the less frequented traveled roads j are still coated with enough snow for sledding, while the more frequented I byways have the snow all worn off from many teams. This means that the slelghers coming In to the sta : lions with their loads must transfer vhem to wagons for the remainder of the trip. With such a condition ex isting, the growers are not making any special effort to haul and In the meantime stock In the ware' ouses grows lighter. Demand and move ment Is very good and the market at vhe prevailing prices holds firm. ' Tuesday Minnesota sacked round and long whites, U. S. No. 1, f. o. b usual terms, brought $1.45 and $1.55, and sacked Burbanks, U. S. .No. 1, ti.bO and $1.65. Seed stock, Early Ohlos and Rose brought $1.35; Wednesday the same general tone prevails and prices were holding mm. Ail varieties were naving a good call. Thursday the market was about the same with prices holding around the same level on all grades and Fri day the market showed no change. 1-Veiling Potatoes to Stock DELLINGHAM, Wash. Potatoes are being fed to cattle and horses In northwestern Washington because growers refuse to part with their product at $18 per ton or less. The majority of them say that the pota toes are worth that much to them as stock feed, and aa there Is no pres ent Indication of an advance In price It seems likely that a very large per centage of the 1918 crop now In the pits will never get beyond the barn door or cattle or horse trough. Some good stock Is being purchased for evaporating purposes, but there Is comparatively little movement. New York Situation four NEW Y-RK CITY. The potato market was In rather poor shape last week. Although t' ere is no accu mulation in the New York yards at all. The supplies are normal and the offerings from the country are only fair, but tv ere seems to" be no life to the situation at all and prices drag. In Maine this week shippers were paynlg farmers $1.90 and $2.10 per 165-nound barrel. They were quoi ing Green" Mountains at $1.85 and $1.90 and Cobblers at $1.60 and S1.65 per cwt. delivered New York In the yards Mountains were selling at $3.40 and $3.75 and Cobblers at $3.25 and $3.60 per 180 pounds bulk. ness relative to the Centenary pro gram for the Sunday school and church.
