Thursday afternoon, when Norma
June, the two year old daughter Oh
Mr.. and Mrs. Fredolph Hultgreen

Review
The newly organized Potato Ex-
change has bought the Hart potato
warehouse in Long Prairie and will
start active buying operations as
soon as the crops begin to move. J. A.
Shaver is secretary of the Exchange.
The deal for the Hart warehouse was
made Monday. =.
This is most important step for
the Exchange and means that it is
going to get under way for the 1921
crop season. It was thought for a
time that the Exchange would not be
able to do much this year because OF
late start in organizing, but the pur-
chase of the Hart warehouse gives it
the opportunity to begin right away.
The Exchange has seventy-five
stockholders now and campaign is
to be started Immediately to make
every farmer of the community a
member. Shares are $25 each.
A meeting is called for Monday,
August 80, at the court house to con-
slider the matter and to perfect the
organization. An effort is being
made to secure the presence of every
farmer who market potatoes here.
Mr.. Calhoun, of the State Exchange
is to be present and it is expected
that there will also be other speak
ers from the state Farm School or
the State Farm Bureau office. The
State Exchange has the endorsement
of the state Farm School authorities
while the state department of agri-
culture has been active in helping to
organize it. The Exchange is a pure
ly cooperative enterprise and ex-
poets to be able to market the potato
crop at minimum of expense, there
by raising the net price to the pro-
ducers. Come out to the Monday
meeting and learn all about it.-Long
