Potatoes The acreage planted to potatoes in 1939 is expected to be about 8 per cent less th a n in 1938. W ith average yields, such an acre age would give a crop of about 310 million bushels, w hich would be around 60 million bushels less than the crop of th is year or the recent 10-year average. It is probable th a t th e g reatest re duction in acreage will occur In the late states, although it is indicated th a t all areas will show some de crease under the 1938 plantings. The acreage this year was slig h t ly sm aller th an in 1937, and the same is tru e of ehe crop, which is eseimated at 373 m illion bushels.
