Spuds Going
to Market at
a Rapid Rate
'High Price Incentive Keeps Them
Moving Bring Three Times
the 1924 Price.
Nebraska potato shipments to date
have exceeded last year's total move
ment, according to information re
ceived by the state and federal divis
ion of agricutural statistics. This
year's commercial potato crop is ex
pected to exceed 4,000 cars.
Fotato shipments to date from Ne
braska's commercial potato center
total 2,939 cars, compared to 1,735
cars shipped to date last year and a
total movement, last season of 2,918
cars.
The movement started about Aug
ust 1 and has continued heavy since
that date. The potato shipment
season dates from August 1 to June
10, beginning when the early crop
first starts to market.
With potato production in Ne
braska falling 1,443,000 bushels be
low production a year ago it might
at first seem unreasonable that the
shipments at this early date are in
excess of the total movement for last
season. However, when it is remem
bered that the present crop i3 largely
commercial and was produced in
western Nebraska's commercial po
tato center, and that the farm crop
in the eastern part of the state was
much below the average, it is only to
be expected that the results should
show up in increased shipments. The
farm price as of December 1, 1925,
averaged $1.80 per bushel, while the
December 1 price a year ago was
62 cents. This factor has caused a
much larger percentage of the pota
toes produced to seek the market,
while as a result of the low market
price a year ago many potatoes were
allowed to rot in the field, or were
fed to livestock and did not reach
the market.
The quality of the present crop is
not as good as that of the crop pro
duced last year, but it is commanding
a price nearly three times that of a
year ago.
The total value of the present
crop of 6,300,000 bushels is $11,310,-
000 compared to a total value of the
7,743,000 bushel crop produced a
year ago of $4,801,000. In short a
crop 1,443.000 bushels below last
year's production is worth two and
one-third times as much. The de
crease of 1,443.000 bushels in produc
tion or 19 per cent may be account
ed for by a 6 per cent reduction in
acreage and a decline in average
production per acre of from 87 bush
els in 1924 to 75 bushels in 1925.
Potatoes in the United States with
a 7 per cent cut in acreage and a 24
per cent smaller production have a
gross value about two and one-half
times that of the 1924 crop.
W. C. T. U. WOMEN

Falls City. Jan. 29. While the
United States senate Wednesday af
ternoon was debating the weighty

beloved prelate thru crepe-darkened

It was a ceremony of pomp and

And they still lined the way when a
few hours later, without military cir

DEATH OF MISS MART KEHNE
The death of Miss Mary Kehhe,
lifelong resident of the vicinity of
Manley occured this week at the
hospital at Lincoln where she has
been for some time taking treatment
but which failed to give her the
relief hoped for and eventually led

the late Henry Kehne, one of the
well known residents of the central
part of the county and is a 6ister of
Mrs. Will Otte and Will Kehne, both
of the vicinity of Manley.
The deceased lady was forty years
of age and held in very high esteem
by those who had the pleasure of
knowing her and her death brings
a great regret to the many old
friends and associates.
The funeral services were held at
the late home and the interment
made in the cemetery near there Fri
day.
