Potato Growers
Organize for Action
The Deschutes Valley Potato
Growers Association was organized
at Redmond on November 29. A
number of farmers interested in
the growing of potatoes were pres
ent and the following officers were
elected: President, G. E. Stadjg,
Lower Bridge; Vice-President. S. D.
Mustard Powell Butte; fcretary,
A. E. Lovett, Redmond; and
Treasurer, L. E. Smith, Redmond.
A constitution and by-laws was
adopted and the secretary ordered
tliHon &ornM
We sell for cash; that's why we sell cheaper.
Prineville, Ore
to take up the sale of potatoes in
100 pound and car-load lots with
dealers and others in Portland ana
San Francisco. Inquiries for several
car loads of potatoes varying from
first class table to extra fancy back
ing potatoes have been received.
The membership fee of $1.00 per
year will be charged members and
it is hoped that all those growing
potatoes in the Deschutes val'ey
will become members of this Asso
ciation and assist in creating a de
mand for the potatoes grown in this
section. Crook and adjoining
counties should be able with their
present disease-free potatoes be able
to control a large market forfancy
potatoes at fancy prices. The busi
ness of the Association this year
will be small but through sales
made at this time a demand for
large shipments of next seasons crop
should be created. All parties inter
ested in the development and mar
ket of potatoes for this section are
invited to join this association and
assist in the development of the po
tato industry.
