POTATOES AT S2.DO STILL GOING HIGHER Local grocers said today that they saw no prospective aid for the potato situation, but thought that the commodity would probably grow scarcer all winter, and that the price would probably go higher. “People will be doing "without potatoes this winter," one grocer declared, “because the prfee will be positively prohibitive (o many people.” Potatoes today are retailing ui $2 to $2.25 per bushel in Nappanee, with prices in other localities correspondingly high. Less than four weeks ago, before the unusual cold weather and frost, potatoes were selling at a fairly average figure, about SO cents. The average price at this, time of year ordinarily is about 70 cents. The shortage of the present' crop is chiefly attributed to the heavy frosts and snows, which have frozen thousands of bushels of undug potatoes. The condition is not localized, however, as growers in Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Colorado ;md Idaho have also been lilt by early frosts.
