sPUD GROWERS MEETING
CAME NEAR A RIOT

The annual meeting of the Colorado
Potato growers Association, held at
Greeley last week came near riot
The trouble came during the discus
sion on the new government grading
rules for potatoes, which were indors-
ed by Prof. e. P. Sandsten of the
Colorado Agricultural College, and
secretary of the spud growers assoc
iation. Prof. Sandsten stated that the
quality of spuds grown in Weld coun-
ty had been deteriorating for several
years, and when he was asked who
was to blame, he said the growers
themselves were.
Immediately there was Kisses and
cat calls in all parts of the hall and
Prof Sandsten was declared liar and
one or two of the delegates declared
that if the speaker was not lynched,
he ought to be elected from the hall.
So serious did the situation become
that word was sent to the sheriff's Of
flee for help, and deputy responded
and told the delegates that no rough
work would be tolerated by him.
Professor Sandsten finally left the
hall, after a number of delegates de-
clared that if the quality of Weld coun-
ty potatoes was growing poorer every
year it was due to the lack of intelli-
gent cooperation on the part of that
institution with the farmers in an eff
fort to find an effective remedy and
also to the wrongful potato growing
propaganda sent out by the college.
1t was voted to exp> Prof. Sandsten
from the association and a resolution
was passed against any kind of gov
ernment grading law.
The resolutions adopted follow:
Whereas the so-called government
inspection as to grading potatoes, es-
tablished by the food administration
as war measure, went out of exist
ence with the food administration
Dec. IL, last; and
Whereas, certain dealers and other
interested parties are trying to keep
alive bogus inspection without any
authority of law whatsoever; and
Whereas, certain potato shipping in
terests, backed by ill-advised, salaried
agriculturists, are now striving to
hetNC d law pdSSeu giving Iue present
bogus inspection the authority of law
Be it resolved that we are opposed
State Potato Growers association re-
fuse in any way to recognize in any
way these bogus inspectors whose acts
are at present without any authority
of government or law, and that we
censure said inspectors for attempt
ing to fill positions that should have
been vacated when the food admin
stration went out of existence.
Be it resolved, that we areopposed
to any law making inspection as to
grade compulsory, that we believe this
free country and that every grower
should have the right to sell the pro
duct of his toll in the highest market;
unhampered by the needless and use
less regulations.
E. r. Bliss of Greeley was reelected
president of the association Frank
Sweet of Carbondale and w. F. Light
ner of Monte Vista were chosen vice
presidents. ]. M. Haythorn of Eaton
was elected secretary and treasurer.

F. Scott Mcbride

The happiest man in Illinois
on January 10th was +. Scott
Mcbride. State Superintendent
of the Anti-Saloon League. As
leader OF the dry forces he was
the field marshal responsible for
every move in the campaign.
While he would claim no greater
credit for himself than the hum
blesst soldier in the ranks, his
tasks in connection with the
fight were greater and more diff
cult by far than those OF any
other. Without his great cour-
age, inexhaustible patience,
boundless faith, ceaseless indus
try. and unfailing good judg-
ment it is hard to see how the
temperance forces OF Illinois
could have triumphed over SEEM
ingly insurmountable difficulties.
In behalf OF the staff of workers
in the Anti-Saloon League OF

ure in paying this tribute to the
chief.
