POTATO DEALERS ARE
EXPECTING INCREASE
"Though we hope for some improve
ment in the potato market before the
end of the month, there is no assur
ance whatever that anything of the
kind will come," said one of the lead
ing dealers Saturday. "It is of course
possible that the Southern buyers a
little later will be in a position to
take Oregon Burbanks and other var
ieties at Burbank prices in a limited
way, for supplies of cheap River stock
in California are being reduced to
some extent, but the buyers there can
draw from other states as well as
Oregon, and in view of that fact the
prospect for a market for the surplus
of this "state is still far from encour
aging. "The Oregon buyers who earlier in
the season took over considerable
quantities of American Wonders,
Early Rose and Garnets, paying 50
to 60 cents a hundred at country ship
ping points for the product, and were
confident that the Southern planters
would be in the market for them for
seed purposes before the end of- the
year, still have the bulk of their pur
chases on their hands. Further, late
reports from California indicate that
the few cars that were sent there
from this state in December are for
the most part still in storage there,
unsold.
"We have more potatoes on our
hands now, bought at prices that
showed little profit foV the producer,
than we know what to do with, and
so far as we are able to learn, other
buyers, jobbers, retailers and the big
consumers, like the hotels and restau
rants, are in about the same position.
As a result for the farmer's surplus
there seems to be no satisfactory out
let. The growers living near the city
are selling potatoes directly to con
sumers wherever possible and taking
whatever prices Oiey are able to get."

"Advertising, in a way, is 'legal ad

Printers Ink. I take it that Mr. Lam
ed means that every time a retailer
wholesaler or' manufacturer- advertis
es he is advising the public of the
merits of his goods with the same
truthfullness, earnestness and sincer
ity that a lawyer "advises his clients.
The lawyer in giving advice based
on law and by his knowledge convin
ces both his client and jury. Once
the adviser goes by the law of truth-
fullness and the public knows that he
can be depended upon, no matter
what his assertions are he has an
asset and a business foundation of
incalculable value. .
