O f course they are never reduced to anything like this price, but to insure them a- gainsl anything like so low a pii»-e a starch factory might be started. It would pay to work |H»tati<es on this coast into starch even if they cost 50 cents per bushel, the price of starch being so high. As it is the people of this part seldom sell potatoes for less that 1*0 cents p^r bushel, I»nt a starch fact *rv world always keep the price up, let the people raise wh it they might. Parties fell us that a Factory on a small scale such as any farmer could run, is as profitable as on a mammoth scale where it can he sold in bulk.

Every one knows, of course, that great quantities of s-tarch aie made from the potato. The business, how ever, has been almost entirely con fined to certain districts in Maine.
