The future, for our growers is bright ; Tho industry dove-Uila beautifully with stock raining- which can handle the lower grades and culla as feed. Our problem ia to maintain the pre mium the trade will pay for our top grades. That we will do if we maintain quality and do not ship the culls. Klamath county by proper marketing; can and will be come the potato capital of the earth. .

On of tha dlfflcultle with tha whole phyalcal culture and th letl movement haa been tha cre ation of outdoor fanatic, mara thon runner, hundred-mile pe- deatriana and etmtlar cnthnilaila who teller that tha road to health lie In the exceptional performance rather than In well- conducted and eultably regulated phyalcal activities.

Office Cat By Janlua Don't Ship Culls .'"THE reason that the manufacturer of breakfast foods can prepare and place a handfull of grain in a pretty package and sell it at a fancy price while the farmer who grew the grain suffers by reason of low price is that the manufacturer knows buying psychology. He offers the housewife something she wants packed in a fashion that appeals to her. His product arouses desire and the consuming public is willing to pay a good price for what it wants. The same thing applies to potatoes. If Klamath county feeds its culls to the sheep, hogs and cattle that need those culls for food and sells only its top grade potatoes properly sacked its growers will always have a market for their crops." This statement eminated from no less an authority than Georga J. Cannon of the agricultural department of the Great Northern Railway. Mr. Cannon has been in the potato business all his life and knows whereof he speaks. Here is another statement: "Never abuse the confi dence of the trade. Never sacrifice your grade. Klamath potatoes in common with a few other western potatoes bring premium "prices on the market That premium is the result of known quality, and once let the impres sion get about in the minds of the buyers that that qual ity is being impaired and the premium will disappear. Once gone it would take many years to rebuild." H. E. Drobish, secretary of the Pacific Northwest Potato Commission, is employed by the states of Wash ington, Idaho and Montana and the United States Depart ment of Agriculture to assist the potato growers of the northwest with statistical information on crop condi tions, markets, etc. His remarks as reported above should bear weight The development of the potato industry In this dis trict has an intresting history as traced by C. A. Hen derson, Klamath county agricultural agent the man, by the way, largely responsible for its development As an income producer for this county's growers it has devel oped from $60,000 in 1923 to $1,300,000 last year. Its importance can hardly be over-emphasized. Until about 15 years ago consumers were satisfied with a much lower grade potato than they now demand. These potatoes were irregular and the eyes were far back in the potato. Then came the development of the peeling ma chine now used by almost every large hotel and restau rant in the country. With the poorer potatoes the waste was very heavy, running often as high as fifty per cent. The new ( machinery demanded better quality and a standard size and shape. Finally it was discovered that the Netted Gem filled all requirements. The growers in Idaho and Washington began to reap a harvest of premium prices. Experimentation has proved that this variety can only be grown successfully in about one third of Idaho, one-third of Oregon, one-fourth of Wash ington and small portions of California, Wyoming, Mon tana, Colorado and Utah. Klamath county is located in one of these few favored pots. The eastern potatoes although close to the great eastern markets cannot compete with our own product The buyers will pay higher freight charges and a pre mium price besides to secure them. The small growing area seems to insure a reasonable price under all ordi nary conditions. Additionally is this county fortunate in another great market California and the Hawaiian Islands. We are almost equi-distant between the large cities of the south and the other growing areas. We can capitalize speedy delivery and freight differential. That market should be ours now and forever to come. Prices this year will probably be lower. They are governed as in all other industry by the buying power of the consuming public and the volume 'of ojtput .This year's volume of 361,000,000 bushels as against the 1930 coo of 343,000,000 bushels Bhows an increase in pro duction of 18,000,000 bushels. This surplus is not quite as bad as it appears at first glance, however, as 10,000, 000 bushels of the excess were in the form of early potatoes already absorbed by the market With the market soft by reason of lowered buying power and a surplus of 8,000,000 bushels over last year probabilities are that prices will not be as high as previously. Crop conditions in the eleven western producing states have been bad this year. Production dropped 15,000,000 bushels as against last year. Only fifteen per cent of ch.wkl sponsors tripd silk ... ,,, , , . , , , . . ! scarfs to go with the smartest fall the total crop will be produced in these states as against i clothes. Th model sketched it of twenty-one per cent last year. Premiums for our Klam-j natural nb?o wn" ' Vnd yli?" w am potatoes ana ior muse oi our Bister states win ue higher in all probability than in recent years. Whether the increased premiums will offset the general market drop and insure to our growers a price commensurate with last year is problematical. Klamath county showed a potato acreage Increase this year of thirty-five per cent. Unusual weather con ditions have handicapped the growers and it is doubtful if the average yield will bo much over 100 sacks per acre as compared with the 160 sacks average of last season. All of this Information indicates only, one thing: that you can tell them together. . . .
