"In 1937, we moved to Lost River, (Moore, Idaho). We took seed potatoes with us and started the certified spud industry there. We planted over 100 acres that year with spuds. The weather was perfect and our crop was good. We built two potato cellars that year and filled them both. The next year, we planted what we needed and sold the rest of the seed. There were over 5,000 acres planted in spuds that year in the valley and many more cellars built. While in Lost River, I was Sunday School Superintendent and Chairman of the Boy Scout Troop Committee."
