Newspaper Page Text. TITT3 MORXTNG- OREGOXIAN, WEDXESDAT, MARCH 21, 1917. GREAT CROP HEEDED .Larger Production of Potatoes Is Required. FORMER SUPPLY TOO SMALL Eastern Agricultural Expert Believes Acreage in United State? This Year AYill Be Ijcsa Than Normal. Tt hi the opinion of potato dealers In this state that the acreage planted in potatoes here and In other parts ot the West will be considerably Increased this year. Whether the total U-klted States acreage will be lar ger, however, remains to be seen. The crop expert of the American Ste I A Wire Com pany believes It will be less than last year, because of the Increased cjst of planting; nd producing the crop. In his latest week ly crop review he says: "Our potato growing industry needs a balance wheel; it must have technical side lines to steady it. The produce of years of plenty must be made available for following; lean years. Several practical methods are available to steady the potato-growing indus try. What others have done surely we can do. The potato may furnish a quarter of the food of the Nation at large; half of the food of its worklngmen. No food lends Itself more readily to preparation than the potato. No matter how humble the home, how in experienced the housewife. It Is always pos sible to prepare baked, fried or boiled po tatoes and warm over the left-over portions. If the average yield of potatoes In America could be raised to 00 bushels per acre in 1017 there would be one eight-ounce potato for every man, woman and child of the Nation every day of the year, and nearly 400,000,000 bushels left to export. "The outlook at this writing, for the 191T crop Is a material reduction In acreage, due to several things: Scarcity and high coat of good seed; high cost of the chemicals to control fungous diseases sulphate of cop per and corrosive sublimate; scarcity and high cost of labor; non-purchasablllty of normal potash fertilizer, and general ig norance and apathy toward the reasonable use of commercial fertilizers. "In the past the cost of growing an acre f potatoes has been S25 to J SO; an estimate for 1917 la $125 to S130. Faced with the size of the Investment, and doubtful of the future, the potato grower thinks he is playing safe" and the acreage Is likely to suffer. Never In the life of the Nation has there been greater need for a big crop of potatoes, with any surplus converted In non perishable form 'potato flakes' for human food, and "potato meal" for cattle feed. These products may be stored and kept for years." The following potato crop and acreage tatistics axe given: Pro- Average Tear Acreage. Auction. yield. Teal- - Acreage. Bu.

Monday's high wheat prices failed to hold. All bids for whits wheat at the Merchants' Exchange were 1 cent lower yesterday, while there was a reduction of 2 cents In red wheat. The market was inactive bere sind In the country. The Liverpool grain cable said: "Wheat very firm, with American In gen eral demand; arrivals moderate. Corn strong on light American offers and scarcity of Argentina offers. Consumptive demand good. Flour firm. Submarine activity less pronounced. "India Official report wheat acreage 32, 845,000 acres; prospects fine. "Argentina Weather unsettled south, fa vorable for corn. Wheat 'offers light. "Foreign crop summary rather unfavor able." Bradstreet's estimates the world's visible wheat decrease, European figures missing, at 4,823,000 bushels. Terminal receipts In cars were reported by the Merchants Exchange as follows: Portland Wheat Barley Flour Oats Hay Tuesday ...... lo Year ago...... 23 rieason to date. 4. 176 Tear ago 9,414 Tacoma Monday 23 Year ago 18 (reason to date. 5, 271 Year aso 6,253 Seattle Monday ....... 14 Year ago 15 Reason to date. 4,233 Year ago 4.089 .... 4 6 7 4 6 2 8 1S3 114 2014 1828 1432 1450 871 2033 . . .. 6 . 8 7 111 .... 285 15S7 491 .... 293 1955 3 6 17 41 4 27 800 1308 896 8178 1217 1747 823 349S CHOP SO FEB CENT CXDEB LAST TEAR TTheat Ontput In Southern Hemisphere Also Below Five-Year Average Production of wheat In Argentina. Aus tralia and New Zealand, the principal pro ducing countries of the Southern hemisphere, shows a 30 per cent reduction for the 1916 1917 season, but Is only . 7.7 per cent less than the five-year average. A cablegram from the International Institute ot Agricul ture at Rome, received yesterday at the De partment of Agriculture, Washington, D. C announced the production of those countries as 226,274,000 bushels. Spain's wheat acreage, sown last Autumn for this year's harvest la 10,134,000 acres, or 8 per cent more than last year, and Japan's acreage Is 1,236,000. or 4-10 of 1 per cent less than last year's acreage. 4 Spain's 1916 corn production Is given as 28.642,000 bushels, or 1.6 per cent less than the previous year's crop. That, Included with the production of the United States, Canada, Italy. European-Russia, Switzerland, Japan, and Egypt makes a total of 2.841, C14.000 bushels, or 13.4 per cent less than the previous year. British India's rice production shows an Increase of 3.7 per cent over 1915. and 19.1 per cent over the five-year average with 317.559.904,000 pounds. Spain's rice crop was 532,896.000 pounds, an increase of 2.8 per cent. Production In those countries and the United States, Japan and Canada total 343.605.728.000 pounds, an Increase of 8.5 per cent over 1915. RECORD ADVANCE IN TEA FRICE3 Causes of Recent Sharp Rise In Indian and Ceylon Markets. Late advices from India and Ceylon tell of the greatest advance In Ceylon and In dia teas that has ever occurred at one time. Everything In the way of Ceylon and India teas has been advanced 10 cents per pound. Part of this advance Is due, no doubt, to the scarcity of freight room and the ex treme cost of insurance, and part of it Is clue to the fact that only British crown teas may be sent to Great Britain, and nat urally this makes an advance In the cost of these teas automatically. Whatever the reason. It is a fact that Ceylon and India teas have been advanced 10 cents per pound All China teas are also very much higher, than they were last year. The only teas remaining at only a slight advance over previous costs are the Japanese, teas, and they are kept so by the fact that the Jap aneee government prescribes the freight rates on the Japanese subsidized boats and naturally the teas are shipped on these steamers. Eggs In Smaller Demand. The demand for esrirs was lighter yester day and. prices we) about hall a cent lower. with 17 cents the top quotation for current receipts on the street. Butler continued firm, with cube extras selling up to 87 cents. No advance In print prices Is scheduled. Poultry and dressed meat were un changed, with receipts light and the de mand good Celery From Florida.

(Special.) "The lOO per cent advance In the cost of paper this year over last year makes it imperative that the shippers of the North west discontinue the wrapping of apples, ex cept the extra choice variety." said Geeorge E. Crum, of the firm of White Bros. & Crura Company, which Is the largest ship per of apples In this territory. "There is no Justification for wrapping apples, any way," continued Mr. Crum.

I am confident the producers, shippers and consumers will be glad to do away with this needless wrapping." PUBLIC TAKES HOLD Outside Buying Evident in Wall Street Operations. MANY ADVANCES .
