Madison.-The raising of 'spuds' is
becoming a popular and profitable
business in many counties of Wiscon-

potato growers have formed them
selves into local associations to bet

Local clubs will be organized at a
number of the farmers courses to
be held in several counties of the
state this spring. Such organization
meetings have already been planned
for Rhinelander April 2, and Toma-
hawk, April IL.
Each club will be a branch of the
state association and the members in
each community will cooperate in
growing tubers of quality of one, or, at
the most, but very few high yield
ing varieties. This work is in charge
Of James G. Milward of the college
of agriculture of the University OF
Wisconsin, who will lend assistance
in organizing the clubs, securing de-
sirable varieties or giving any infor-
nation of value to the growers.
