Ilrndloy, ennnRod In promotlns tho nturoh fnctory, took oxcaptloa to thu potato starch fnots and flicurcs sent out from tho Unlvarslty of Oro Kon nnd recently published In Tho Ilullotln. AccordlnR to Mr. Ilrndloy this stntnmont was tnadu by a mnn who know nothlnR nbout tho subject. ProoxHor Hnid'lcr of tho Oregon Ar rlculturnl CoIIoro, on tho contrary Is competent to spank or potato march manufacture Mr. Ilrndloy snld, and has Rlvon out tho followltiR Intorvlow relating to It. "For sovornl years pnst tho Depart- lliont Of AeronoillV of thn flniL-nn Air. rrlculturnl CoIIoro has been slvlnx consldorabla nltcntlon to developing now innrknts for tho Oregon potato. Tho priilbllltles for tho successful iruinufncturo of potatoes, It has boon learned, am so Rood that through tho efforts of tho CoIIoro cnpltal hns ho cotno Interested nnd Is now looking ovor tho situation In tho state for thn purposo or establishing a potato stnrch factory, "Whllo prior to 11)12 tho market for Oregon potntoos was excellent, slnco that time, duo largely to nn or- cess in production, prices hnvo fallen off and tho market boenmo very un cortnln. This his boon so discourage lug to growers thnt there Is dnneor of this Important agricultural Indus try suffering n serious rolnpso. For sovcrnl years, therefore, tho colleen hns been tusking a study or tho pos- siuiuues tor uovoioping now markets. Potatoes oro ono of tho most valu blo cash crops tho stato produces, as conditions throughout Oregon, ex cept at extreme elevations oro very fnvornblo for their profitable produc tion, and tho crop Is adapted to a very wldo vnrloty of farm conditions, nnd henco Is of Intorest to every far mer. Asldo from tbolr Importance as a cash crop, potatoes aro of great value Indirectly In rotations for maintaining fortuity. destroying weeds, and Improving tilth. A steady market, however. Is Imporntlvo If tho crop Is to contlnuo to bo profitably grown. "Through tho uso ot tho best cul tural mothods, a proper rotation, nnd thn selection of tiurc. dlsoaso-frca. high-yielding scod, tho Oregon far mer enn compoto wltli potato growers anywhere In tho mnttor of yields, quality, nnd cost of production. Tho only requirement, thon. for tho suc cess or tho Industry Is somo method or regulating tho supply to tho de mand, nnd thus maintain n stendy mnrkot nt good prices. If, whenever thoro Is nn excess In production this oxcomi can bo kept off tho market nnd only tnblo potatoes of uniformly high quality supplied to meet tho domnnd, thero will bo little danger In futuro of demoralizing tho market such as wo had In 1912 nnd have hnd slnco. "Tho question thon la whethor'tho excess supply enn bo tnken cara of In somo profltnblo wny. After having given consldornblo study to this ques tion, I nm satisfied that tho manufac ture or potatoes offers tho oolutlon. In 1013 I prescntod this question be fore tho Portland Chamber of Com merce and Inter also tho Oregon Man ufacturers' Association. Slnco thnt tlmo, cnpltnl has become Intorcstod nnd tho establishment of n potato March factory Is now donnltely plan ned. "Such n factory, hnvlng a capacity for 100 tonH or potatoes per day, will cost from $20,000 to $40,000 to establish nnd put Into operation. Dur ing a run of six months, which Is possible under Orogon conditions, this factory will consumo tho cull erop from 10,000 acres or moro of potatoos. At a prleo from 20 to 30 cents per hundred, the farmer will rccolvo n very profltnblo roturn from his culls, which aro now a dead loss. In years whon tho market for tnblo potatoos la low, due to ovor supply, tho crop could bo very much moro olosoly graded, only tho highest qual ity bolng turned on to tho market for tnblo uso nnd nil or tho excess shlp pod to tho stnrch fnctory. Thus, tho tablo mnrkot prlco may bo maintained for tho starch fnctory o flora a profl tnblo roturn to tho farmer for nil or hln excess crop. With the successful establishment or ono factory, others will follow, so thnt tho entire potato aoroago of Oregon may bo fully taken caro of. "Whon tho Oregon tnblo crop can thus ho closely graded, Its high qual ity will command n premium on tho great California mnrkot. Tho fnvor nblo soil nnd climatic conditions of Oregon, together with tho uso of hottor Hood nnd production mothods, will gtvo tho Oregon farmer tho ad vantage in competition ovor tho growora of any othor region. "From tho manufacturers stand point, the potato starch Industry Is vory promising. Analysis of many samples of Orogon potntooa show thorn to havo a range ot from IS to 2C per cont stnrch contont, with nn avorngo ot 20 por cont. It will ho possible for tho manufacturer to pny tho farmer from 20 to 30 conts por hundred for his culls nnd excess po tatoos and still mnko n hnndsomo profit on tho manufacturing ond. Tho mnrkot for potato starch In the Unlt od States la vory large, somo 15,000 tons bolng consumed annually In tho toxtllo Industry alono In the East tho avorngo nrlce tor potato starch bolng 4 cents per pound, In Port land, Beattlo nnd Spokane, somo 2, 000 tons or march aro consumed an nually. This starch Is now made from corn, which Is Inferior both for manufacturing nnd food purposes to mo potato mnrcn, and on which in addition tho Northwest must pay the freight from tho contra) mat oh and send tho money back to tho farmers nnd manufacturer of thnt region. Whllo tho Northwest could readily consume tho entire production from tho new factory proponed, yet potato siuroii produced in tins region will ho able to compoto with thnt imported from Germany, which Is now usod In tho eastern states, for tho new rnton via tho Canal In addition to tho tariff on potato starch will permit tho Norhwcst manufacturer to uso tho eastern market profitably. "A starch factory consuming 100 tons of potatoes per day will In tho sonson's run produce 3,000 tons or starch. This will roqulro 000,000 burhels of potatoes or tho cull crop from approximately 16,000 acres yielding 1G0 bushels nor ncro 25 per cont of which aro culls. Tho fnctory succcsstully uses potntocs In practically any condition those thnt nro too largo, too small, too grocn, diseased, frozen or even rotten. Even tunlly, with the successful manufac ture ot starch, tho manufacture of potato glucose, potato flour, nnd po tato flakes may bo profitably under taken. Points too dlstnnt from tho fnctory to ship potntocs may at low cost Install green starch plants local ly and ship tho grcon starch to tho central fnctory at n reduction of ap proximately two-thirds of the weight. With only ono or two control factor ies, tho uso or subsidiary grcon stnrch plants would permit every section of tho stnto to oajoy the advantage of this now mnrkot outlet for potntocs. I believe thnt In regions like tho rich , tldolnnds of Clatsop, Tillamook and Coos counties, where very large yields or potntocs nro posslblo, at low cost por bushel, tho cntlro crop enn bo raised profitably for starch manufacture nlono, thus giving theso localities a now Industry. "Tho greatest advantage of tho factory, however, will bo In that It will offer the farmer a profitable out- lot for tho culls and tho excess crop, so that at all times only the highest grade of tablo potatoes will bo turn cd on to tho market, nnd thus tho tablo mnrkot prlco will bo maintain cd at a fairly steady level. In Ger many, whero somo 160,000,000 bush els of potatoes aro annually manufac tured, tho effect hns been to practic ally ellmlnato variation In tho prlco of the tablo crop from year to year. I am confident wo enn reach tho satna result here In Oregon. "Kvcry encouragement, thorofore, al.ould be offered tho men who aro endeavoring to start this now Indus try. It will provo profltablo to both th i-rower and tho manufacturer If they co-cpernto with each other In launching tho project. "Potato growers will bo Interested to know that tho collego for moro than a year hns had n manuscript rendy on the potato markets and po tato starch Industry and that, now tho factory Is nbout to be established, this manuscript wilt go to press nnd be available at an early date.
