Growers' ideas o tha potato shortage Slong the Pacific .coast are widely out of line with actual conditions, Mr. Broadun reports to The Journal. . - The shortage in the Pacific slope States will reach from 10 to 15 per cent, while growers expected a . rriuch more serious shortage.1 While It is true that general potato conditions along the Pa cific slope were exceedingly had during August and that Colorado did not have prospects better than 60 per cent of a crop, the weather during September was so, gooa inai enormous, grow in w made. " - -'-- ; - :- raney potatoes Very Soaro.' While there is a very good crop of potatoes generally s-fong the coast, the growth is principally . of poor Cali fornia .Tor instance, while the cooking quality of Oregon potatoes this season will be fully up to -the standard, the potatoes were stunted at the start of the season by the exceedingly dry weath er, and thereore the shape will not be eujch that aiarg percentage can enter the fancy clause . "' California has a good crop of river stock this year, but in the best dis tricts Lompoe and Ealinas the growtif this year- is short. ' ' Thin, therefore, would mean that Oregon has a chance to secure, a stiff price for it best po tatoes, but there ere so -few of these grown the present season that they can scarcely be considered. Therefore, with a normal croj of rivers in California spo a shortage in the fancy goods, Ore gon will not benefit by the latter be- Ncaaee iiwut nave praciicauy none w offer. . . . . "Wasnijijton Jiot s ractox. The' state of Washington is not a factor in the potato market of. the Pa cific slope at all. Few potatoes grown In that state are shipped Out of Us borders, arid therefore the -shortage there Is not to be seriously considered except as it may uall for outside stoclt. This Is Improbable. - ; -. . Mr. Broadus was through the Greeley. Montrose-' and 1 Carbondale district)- cf Colorado, and saw himself the ' condi tions of the crops there. He went to Idaho arid traveled through Idaho Falls, BlackfootTwih Falls and Buhl tfe tricts, ' and makes Its estimates - accordingly..-, - Idaho -will have only a half of last year's potato crop this season.- JVr,," this Is considered bullish. Ml-. 'Broadus states that as Idaho failed to sell a half ef Its jUist year's crop It leaves, the stt uatlofi there almost In a, normal posi tion. '""." "'( -..; " . .j tf aroadus Had potatoes. "If I were a grower and had potatoes to selU X would sell them the minute I could get $1 per 100 pounds, I am Of the opinion that' s-rowersars going" to hold their supplies for an advance, and in this tbey are 'IJkely to lose money, Charces of holdlnr are rather steeo, and even though dhey secured $1.25 later on. they would not make, as much , as I they do now at $1.
