 Mayor Clagett, members of the Town Council, members of the Chamber of Commerce and other prominent citizens, led the squad of the first fighting men sent from Santa Cruz county All along the line the boys were applauded by hundreds of friends and acquaintances who turned out to wish them God speed.
 At the depot the 35th Infantry band serenaded the honor squad while relatives and friends said

ADVISE SPUD GROWERS
TO STUDY THE MARKET
Minnesota board Gives Tip to Farm
ers ON Methods That Will
Prevent Losses.

A circular issued by the Minnesota
state committee of food production
and conservation advises potato pro-
ducers to carefully study, market con-
ditions and thus avoid losses incident
to the marketing of this years crop.
tee says:
THE maturing of the sweet potato
crop of large production in the south
has had the effect of reducing the de-
mand for Minnesota potatoes for inn
mediate use to great extent. At the
same time there has been remark :
ably free movement considering the
volume of potatoes offered, and pay
ing prices in the twin cities territory
for bulk stock direct from the field
have ranged from SO cents to SLIP per
bushel. Fridays movement was at a
range from 95 cents to S1.02 with the
larger proportion of the stock bring
ing the latter figures.
well posted men in the potato
handling business express the opinion
that there will be an outlet for the
northwestern crop at good figures,
and growers are advised not to make
any contracts tossell in advance. The
greatest danger probably is in the
short time when the heaviest market
ing movements are in progress. Pric-
es may then be temporarily reduced
below their normal levels, IL the ma
jority of growers. show an inclination
to sell Immediately upon digging
their crops.
"At this season of the year ire
sponsible parties are likely to offer
attractive inducements TO
always well for farmers to keep post
ed with current market values, and to
know to whom they are selling their
stocks of farm products"
