29、the 20 percent that are left in the batch? Well, a few short fries in a bag are okay, it seems.So, now that you realize the enormous size and value of the potato crop, you can understand why most people agree that this part of the food industry is no small potatoes.Potatoes in North America came dir

35、ated during the American Revolution. Until then, each state was responsible for its own debts. The Bank of the United States, however, wanted to assume these debts and pay them off itself.
