A seasonal drop in potato prices

Next year's production of truck

and scarcity and snarp price var
lations. the department said.
Because of relatively high prices
received for most truck crops in
the last two years, the department
predicted growers nicely win at
tempt to produce at least as large
a volume as this year and In that
event grower and consumer prices
probably win average a little lower
than In 1952.
The department snid prices for
canned and frozen vegetables from

remain generally near present
levels.
