New Cuban Duty Is Discoaraging Says _Officilal The Potato Growers‘ Association has been notified of a change in duty regulation on potatoes to Cuba, the duty now being $5 per 100 kilos, or $1.156 4-11 per bushel all the year around. "We cannot hope to ship potatoes," states Mr, J. W. Boulter, "to a mar- ket with such excessive tariffs. Last October 250.000 bushels were Shipped‘ from Prince Edward Island to Cuba. netting the farmers of this Province from $125,000 to $130,000. It was a market which gave us an excellent opportunity to make early shipments without danger of frost from storage in outside buildings. 1n view of this and the heavy anticipated plantings by the United States. the outlook fer potatoes in 1931 is discouraging." There have been no shipments from Prince Edward Island to Cuba. except seed since November 1st last.
