potato prices so low in the New York
market that there was a general kick
by our home growers. New York,
Maine, Michigan and Wisconsin We're
the main kickers and the Agricultural
Department had to find a bug in the
foreign potatoes. They found it, and
the imports of potatoes from all of
Europe is practically stopped and peace
reigns again in u large potato grow
ing states. VIII some n not get wise
and find bug in the foreign rice and
foreign oranges? Our Agriculture De.
partment will assist US in finding it of
course. The pledge of the party is
fulfilled all you have to do now IS to
find the bug.
