WAUPACA POST

October 25, 1883

 

 

 

            Waupaca potato dealers have paid Chicago prices for potatoes during the past week.  The reason they have been able to do so is because Waupaca’s reputation as a potato market brings special orders here from portions of the country where the crop is short, and those who thus order expect to pay a little over the Chicago price for our potatoes.  As soon as these orders are filled the probabilities are that the price will drop to about 17 cents less than Chicago prices.
