Most reople are keenly pota
to conscious this, apring, whether
they be buyers or ielleri. Tlmeiy,
therefore, is the current report on
the intentions of farmers to plant
potatoes this coming year, as
presented by L. R. Btelthaupt of
the state college In hli weekly
broadcast. He said:
The Bureau of Agricultural
Economics resorted several weeks
ago that potato growers in the
early and Intermediate potato
states j Intended to Increase their
potato acreage this year by about
12 per cent over 1916 plantings.
Those early and Intermediate
states are the states from which
new-crop potatoes are shipped to

the reduction In price to 1.75.

Now the bureau potato men
have a report on the potato acre
age Intentions in the late potato
states. This Indicates the acreage
planted to potatoes; In these states
may be about 11 to 12 per cent
more 1 than last year's harvested
acreage. On the other hand, aeed
potatoes will be somewhat less
plentiful and higher priced then
In any of the past several years.
And difficulty in obtaining aeed
potatoes tor planting may cause
some growers to change tnelr
present plans somewhat for this
year's acreage. -
y Bigger Acrea i m Bight
For the country aa a whole,
the intentions" reports of grow
ers show that the total acreage to
be planted to 'potatoes this year
is expected to be about I million
400 thousand acres. This is about
6 per cent more acres than were
planted to potatoes in 1936 and
12 per cent more acres than were
harvested this past year. And it
is 2 per cent more than the av
erage acreage actually harvested
over the 6-year period of 1928
through 1932.
The bureau men also say, based
on the present Indicated acreage
for the 1937 potato crop, that with
a yield : for the United States as
low as 100 bushels to the acre,
the average price for-the market
ing season might hold up to only
slightly less than the average for
the 1936 crop. But with average
yields, which are around 113 bu
shels to the acre, all indications
would point to prices materially
lower than growers have been
paid for potatoes this season.
Larger than average yields from
an acreage 12 per cent larger than
this year'a harvested acreage
would bring potato prices to a
very low level.

NEW YORK, March i-iCf-Lessening

following raising of wages and
shortening of hours by leading
producers, spurred selected stock
market Issues on a forward dash
today, that landed many in new
high recovery territory with gains
of 1 to or more points.
U. S. Steel again took the lead,
crossing 119 for the first time in
around 6 years. It closed at that
figure, up 4 net. Chrysler was
another whirlwind performer,
jumping 6tt to 131 as high hopes
were entertained of a peaceful
settlement of labor Issues which
are to be .discussed at a confer
ence with union representatives
tomorrow.
Rails, coppers, aircrafts and
farm implements were well up in
front, but utilities lagged and
there was an assortment of size
able losses in evidence at the fin
ish.
Activity was pronounced at the
start and ! Just before the final
l-gongIn between the trading pace
was relatively slow. Transfers,
however, totaled 2,294,970 shares
aa against 1,661,700 yesterday.
Owing to sharp advances In a
number of the favorites, the As
sociated Press average of 60
stocks was .7 of a point at 73. The
rail composite was np .7 at a new
rear's high, but that for the util
ities was off .1 at a new 1937 low.
