Roundup Posses
Pursue Rustlers
Armed Parties Are on the Trail of
Brand Changers in the Plains Of
the Pampas Near Buenos Aires.

Buenos Advantageous raids on the
haunts of cattle rustlers by roundup
parties representing ranch owners and
the authorities are making clandestine
brand changing as unpopular on the
pampas as it became on the plains
of the North American West with "the
coming of the law"
In a roundup just Completed by of
ficers and ninety-eight rauchos, as the
hard-riding and taciturn brothers of
the Texas cowmen are called, three
thousand head of cattle have been
recovered with brands that showed
signs of funny work"
This was in the province of Buenos
Aires, the most populous of the Argen-
tine provinces. From the less settled
provinces also there come from stime
to time reports of rustling and sum
mary punishments that lead one to
think of the old Wyoming or Idaho
days. The rolling pampas of Argen-
tina, scarcely ever broken by the sight
Of tree, had much the same history
as the North American western plains.
In past years, especially in the more
distant provinces, the cattle rustler at
times flourished- One picturesque out
come of this in the past was the eff
fort of the Welsh colonies among the
foothills of the Andes of Patagonia to
set up an independent authority be-
cause rustling was not put down by
the government.

Minnesota Potatoes
"Spuds" Will be Marketed on a Co
operative Basis by Commissioner
of Agriculture.

Minneapolis, MINI. - Standardization
of grades and better distribution of
the product are the results expected
to be realized by the organization of
the Minnesota Potato Exchange here.
Through the new system tubers will be
handled on cooperative basis.
The machinery of the new exchange
consists of local cooperative associa-
tions of potato raisers who contract
with the central organization to mar
ket their product. N. j. Holmberg,
state commissioner Of agriculture, who
started a campaign for the formation
of the exchange year ago, said about
seventy five local associations have al
ready been completely organized, and
that within two weeks fully one humid
red locals will be included.
Approximately, one fourth of the
potato acreage of Minnesota has been
tied up with contracts to market
this years crop through the exchange"
said Holmberg.
The commissioner said the state
agriculture department is also consid-
ering the establishment of similar or
carnations foB marketing grain and
other farm products.
