While there may be some changes made between now and start of the project present plans call for an elevator with a capacity of 183,000 bushels. The elevator will be equipped with automatic scales, and scalper to take rough age out of the grain while being : elevated to the bins. At the same time approval was given for the construction of a machinery sales room across from the main warehouse.

It is the hope and desire of the farm ers south of the Oregon line to form a co-op that might tie in with the local cooperative. They - presented the proposition that xne base county orgauiAauuu buv out Rav Henderson's setup In Alturas, which would provide a modern feed mill and other : machinery, and that farmers in Modoc county purchase common atock in the Lake County Co : operative grain elevator. The money from the memberships ; would then be used to purchase the buildings and equipment at Alturas. It was suggested that the Cali : fornia btoud continue their or ganization and present, their . plan when completed, and action would then be taken at a special ' membership meeting of the i.ane county cooperative.

Total shipments for the past week amounted to only 3892 cars 164 cars below the previous week and a dally average of only 649 cars. This total for Uie week Is consider ably below shipments for the same period last year. Shippers report light offer ings and practically no haul ings due to bad weather and the car shortage, with very llttlo change on f.o.b. markets. Demand-in general has been slow but markets have held firm to slightly stronger, apparently duo to the shortage of cars. De mand in- Maine continues mod erate with prices holding firm at slightly above floor but with some strengthening Indicated early this week. Idaho offerings are light because of the car shortage with fair demand and the markets slightly stronger at above floor prices. North Dakota demand con tinues slow, market firm, prices about 10 conts above floor for the few reported sales of com mercial stock. San Luis Valley, Colorado has held in continued moderate demand with the mar ket steady but few sales due to the car shortage. Prices are about 9 cents under floor for washed stock. Wisconsin re ports too few sales to establish a market, and practically no haulings duo to weather condi tions. Michigan demand con tinues slow, with the market dull and very few sales, mostly at floor. Upstate New York has had a slow demand, steady mar ket, and prices about 5 cents under floor, although some im provement was noted toward the end of the week. Condition Unchanged Conditions reported for New York terminal are practically unchanged from last week with eastern stock continuing firm, western stock dull. The market for limited offerings of new sup plies is unsettled. Chicago terminal reports indicate very light supplies, moderate demand, with the market slightly stronger. Firming of markets, where re ported, has been due apparently to the lack of cars to provide supplies. Probably slightly larger offerings would have held markets without chnnae or even at slightly lower levels but this is not a matter lor mucn con cern during the year-end trad ing when retailers attention is directed at fancy lines for the holiday trade. Potatoes normal ly work out at this time oi year upon a routine basis. Markets from- now on are ex pected to be largely a matter of DEVELOPING ENLARGING PRINTING Kn(leuuood&.

Long spoils of bad weather will tend to cut down car mileage and restrict market supplies. At tills time there appear no chance of re lief from the car shortage al though movomont of shipments will do accelerated some when the weather moderates In the late wlntor or early spring. Situation calls for best possible use of every car available, prompt billing and prompt un loading in terminal markets. By way of Illustration, army would like about 40 cars dally from Idaho producing areas. Re portedly it Is getting around 12 cars dally, Navy stored sup plies of several million bushels at Pacific coast points are re ported cleaned up and both army and navy could use more potatoes if they, could get them to shlpslde. French Deal Underway The French deal Is underway with one boat, diverted from the Belgium deal, already cleared from Portland, Maine, and a second boat loading this week at Baltimore. As of Wed nesday, this second boat was only about a third loaded with bad weather and car shortage holding up a lurgo part of the other 200 carloads needed to complete the cargo. Movement of the potatoes contracted to the French upon the basis of ability to got them loaded on ships is important as it will clear up between 4 and 6 million bushels of our surplus if we can get the .potatoes moved. Deal with the Canadians has progressed nicely. Possibility of the Canadians taking more potatoes than the original 41 million bushels contracted hinges both upon willingness of the Canadians to subsldlzo ad ditional quantities of Imports and upon our ability to furnish the cars with which to move them. Car officials in Washing ton say enough cars could be provided to move considerable quantities to Canada, in excess Wadnasdar. Jan. 1. 114 HEHALD AND WW of what she alroady has .con tracted, but not enough to pro vide all of tho polatous Cumulu needs to make up hot' doflult from the 11)45 short crops pro duced there. Department of Agriculture of ficials this week reported that the loan potatoes have about all been covered. To date, more than 30 million cwts. have boon offered- under the regular loan program and an additional 00U, 000 cwts. under the special (pit or temporary storage) loan. Thosu same officials roport that a considerable portion of the potatoes stored under the speclul loan ulrcudy hnvo been moved to by-products plants and other uses. Those taut remuhl are thought to be frozen In (or the winter und cannot outer Into the markets picture until tho weath er breaks In the late winter, Growers and certlflud dualors who stored under tho loan pro gram are In most enviable posi tion. If sufficient cars to move their potatoes are not available, tho potatoes belong to tho gov eminent tho growers end deal ers are paid support prices when they wind up their loan trans actions. Growers and dealers who aron't under the loan, own their potatoes whethor they can or cannot ship them. Owners with part of their potatoes under loan und part not under loan, will do well to movo their non loan potatoes first. They aren't protoctcd on these potatoes Ihey are on tho portions of their crops covered by loans. Seed demand continues active but with not enough cars to movo orders. Slow movement of seed to the early southern areas may result In holding down plantings which would bo a help to the lute crop states during their spring clean-up of stored stock.
