CHARGES ON GRAIN AND HAY
0RDE RED LOWERED -

St. Paul, Nov. 2.-Organized far
mers have won a decisive victory in
the fight for lower railway rates,
the Minnesota Farm Bureau fedora
tion says in report prepared to
inform it's members that the Inter-
state Commerce Commission has Or
dered sweeping reductions in rate on
wheat, coarse grains and hay.
Following hearings in Washington,
at which Thos :: E. eastman Of Owa-
tonna testified as the official repre-
sentative of the Minnesota farm bu~
reau, the commission ordered rates
lowered not later than Nov. 20. The
order directs that rates on wheat
and hay be cut half as much as they
were increased in August, 1920, and
that rates on coarse grain be set 1C
per cent below new rates on wheat
It is estimated that the order means
a reduction Of 25 per cent on coarse
grain, and that the average reduction
on all commodities affected amounts
to 16 or 18 per cent.
The rate slash came just after the
American Farm Bureau federation
took legal action to force reductions
by filing a former petition with the
Interstate Commerce commission ask
ing that successive cuts be ordered
until the whole rate increase of 1926
is wiped out. The farm bureau will
continue it's fight for lower rates.
officers Of both the state and nation
al organization assert.
"The commissions order cutting
rates on hay and grain is a great
victory for the farmers, because il
means that the u. States govern.
ment admits our contention that high
freight rates have penalized agricul
ture and virtually created blockade
between the farmer and his market,
Mr.. eastman said. "The Interstate
Commerce commission has ordered
that rates be reduced. Winning thf
fight for the principle of rate reduc
tion is even more important to thu
farmer than the actual savings that
may result from this order
Other reductions will follow. A large
part Of this years grain crop al
ready has been marketed, but thu
saving in freight on what is left OF
the farms is estimated at several mil
lion dollars for the northwest alone

with sectional complication that made

INTERNATIONAL POTATO SHOW

The International Potato Show
held in the Armory Building in Du
luth, Oct. 1928, was one we'll worth
attending by all interested in the
growing of better and more potatoes.
The show could fairly be termed
International as there were ex-
hibits from Canada, although none
appeared from the island which
claims to have been the first to di-
rect attention to the "praties" ex-
cellence.
While the majority Of the exhibits
were from Northern Minnesota. as
was to be expected, Michigan, Wis
consin, Nevada and Oregon were rep
resented, the last named state hav-
ing the honor Of sending the finest
peck exhibited, although arriving too
late to be judged.
Cook county had eight exhibits of
fine quality and was awarded one of
the lesser prizes.
Among Cook county visitors at the
show were Andrew Tofte, Anton Arm
quist and August Lindskog.
Cook county exhibitors were Isaac
Isaacson, John Massman, John Sam
skar, Hilmer Isaacson, H. o. Toftey,
Ole JAllen.
The educational value of the show
is high. Potato growers attending
are given the opportunity to study
what is finest in potatoes. If ex-
hibitors they are enabled to study
both their own and the other fel-
lows exhibits and, if uns uccessful,
may gain knowledge that will prove
valuable in future competitions. It
is to be regretted that SO few Of our
growers were able to get to the
show and so profit through study
of Exhibition quality in the one veg
etable which attains so near per-
fection in this county.
