POTATO - GROWERS ATTENTION
A public demonstration of grading
potatoes for market will be held at the
potato warehouse of Geo. Brown &
Sons at New Era at 2:00 p. m. Thurs
day February 2. . There are many
growers in the county who are un
familiar with market requirements as
to size, quality, best types of con
tainers, etc., for seed potatoes if they
are to command the best market and
prices.
Machine graders are used by Brown
& Sons, who say that their machines
will pay for themselves each year, and
if consideration is given to the long
life of such equipment it is not diffi
cult to figure why many growers could
well afford to invest in meehanical
graders. One of the machines will be
in operation at the demonstration.
This meeting will give th potato
growers of the county a chance to
observe the practical methods em
ployed by successful potato growers,
who will be glad to answer questions
of the less experienced. This will be
an opportunity. Make it a part of your
farm business to attend.
For further particulars call or ad
dress the County Agent.
