These men made a trip uno tne potato and onion growing sections of Colorado, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and California. They report they found that ear lier predictions made by the gov ernment and other agencies, that there would be a smaller acreage of potatoes and onions this year. seem to be untrue. They state that many districts having short crops last year would have heavier crops in 1954. Many potato and onions grow ers are somewhat concerned with reports circulating that the acre age will be reduced In 1954 and that prices therefore, will be high er. Here and there Indications can be found that such may not be the -case. Before Increasing acre age, growers should attempt to find out what the actual situation Is, as another over-production year would be extremely disastrous to many growers.
