"The rise of potato growing as an
Industry in Idaho and Colorado Is
one great cause of the potato depres
sion in Orevon because the crops of
these two states have taken the
southern market," says II. B. Miller,
director of the department of com
mercial anil Industrial survey of the
University of Oregon school of com
merce. Formerly perhaps 40 per
cent of Oregon's potato exports went
below the Mason and Dixon line.
Mr. Miller thinks German compe
tition will ultimately be a big factor
in southern markets If the duty re
mains off potatoes as at present. The
German with his cheap labor, cheap
fertilizers nnd water transportation
can In normal times meet the Idaho
grower on even terms in the south
or extreme east.
