(Special) High potatoes now mean cheap potatoes when the next crop la harvested, ac cording to Chicago market showing that In previous years an enormous Increase in acreage of pota toes followed extremely . high prices. The potatoes Imported to supply the j demand this year have established a. I new factof that threatens to ruin the hopes of all who hope to make a for tune in 1912 by planting their farms to potatoes and wringing a fabulous price for them from the consumer. Nearly a million bags, 3,000,000 bush els, had been Imported up to January first. Irish and English potato grow ers are not likely to forget this mar ket after- their taste of high prices. ; "Indications are th the lowly spud will have first place as en agricultural gold mine until the next crop will swamp the market," said one prophet. The government reports put the farm value per bushel this- year almost SO per cent high than for 1910, the aver age price quoted being 79.9 cents as compared with 55.7 cents in 1910 and 54.1 cents In 1909.
