BLIGHT KEEPS DOWN
PRICE OF POTATOES
A. L. Beatie, of the Oregon Com
mission Company, sqys that the low
pices of potatoes that now prevails
in Oregon, is partially due to the fact
that the potatoes from all parts of
the state are badly affected with
blight. For tiiis reason, he states,
the farmers in California and other
states are afraid to buy them for
planting. . He says that if the farm
ers are not careful next year to dip
ali their potatoes which they use for
planting, the entire crop will again
be affected with the blight and the
price of that commodity will be low
again next year.
