NATIONAL BAI CHICAGO, March 24.—Potatoes are | p s, yapidly becoming close rivals of wheat .in regard to Kkaleidoscopic market conditions. A report today from the Govern- ment Bureau of Agricultural Econ- omics says that the potato situation has shifted again. Instead of ex- pected lighter plantings in the Soull‘y it mow appears that early potato acreage will be heavier than last year, and that instead of moderate supplies of new Southern stock it looks as if there would be liberal quantities to meet shortage of old potatoes. Furthermore, Instead of potato prices | E continuing upward in the Middle West they have declined and a rise has oc- curred in the East. Arrivals of potatoes this week in Chicago and a few other cities, despite shortages elsewhere. are of 50 to 100 per cent greater volume than a vear ago.
