NEW POTATO SHIPPERS
Several Growers Near Ferris Tell
President Pendergast Crop Will
Be Sent Here.
SOLWAY NOW BEING WORKED

F. NJ. Pendergast, president of the
Producers Cooperative Association
of Bemidji, returned yesterday from
short trip to Ferris, Mimi, where
he spent the day in the interests of
the association.
He went with a view to buying a
carload of potatoes for the local as
ISOLATION. Although farmers in the
vicinity of Ferris have an organiza-
ton of their own, while some have
been shipping their produce to other
markets, Mr.. Pendergast's visit re-
suited in securing a large number to
ship their produce to the Bemidji
warehouse.
Mr.. Pendergast said:
1--WE stand a fine chance to land
the majority of potato growers and
other produce raisers in that vicinity
for next years crop and will possib-
ly secure the crops Of many for this
year. Although we are still a new
organization things look mighty
bright for us. 1t seems that the
farmers in every community have
been waiting for us to open a ware
house to which they might ship their
produce and they all seem highly
elated over it,"
Today Mr.. Pendergast spent in Sol
way and vicinity working among the
potato growers and farmers there.
| These farmers also have been in the
habit of shipping their produce to
other markets. The association has
been formed so that every farmer liv-
ing in this community can become a
| part of it by subscribing for shares
of stock which are at the time being
sold at the nominal sum of 81 a share
The association has sent out postal
cards and has had published in the
newspapers coupons convenient fol
the farmers to fill out and sign. The
coupons and postal cards contain
practically the same form showing
what potato acreage each farmer is
raising, what kind of potatoes and
how large a crop he is expecting.
