ADVOCATES DIRECT SALES
SYSTEM FOR POTATOES

Editor News-Budget,
Ladysmith Wis.
At a meeting of the Board of Di-
rectors of the A. S. of E. on the 10Th
and Goth of July, at Marshfield, Wis,
the executive board was instructed to,
if possible, provide ways and means
for direct sales system Of potatoes.
The Equity society has tried to sell POI
tat0es on the Chicago market with va
rious degrees of success I think that
most of our best posted men have long
realized that this system of selling
does not bring the farmers the best
possible price. With this idea in mind,
| have gotten in touch with the North
American Fruit and Produce Ex-
change, and their representative has
been before our executive board
This organization which is, to all
intents and purposes, a cooperative
organization has lao sales offices
throughout the nation. During the po-
tato season all of these sales offices
communicate with those offices that
they have in the potato districts.
If we tie up with this organization,
the local associations that would avail
themselves of this opportunity would
every morning, receive information
where the highest price can be secured
for potatoes, and they would know
! the price that they would get for their
potatoes before the cars start rolling.
One of the greatest objections to our
past system of marketing potatoes on
or through the Chicago market has
| been that the local organizations did
not know the price that they were to
receive for their products.
The executive board is satisfied that
the system of selling employed by the
North American Fruit & Produce Ex-
change is the most advantageous of
any they know Of.
1t may be very difficult PROPOSE
ton to sell the coming large crop if
there will not be orderly marketing
and / do not know how I can impress
the farmers of the state with the gray
ity of the situation. North Dakota
has five times the amount of potatoes
it had one year ago. Wisconsins crop
is more than double
No time or effort should be spared
in creating and maintaining a good
sales agency for Wisconsin, and hope
that the various leaders in the vari-
Gus communities will do their bit
toward this end.
Yours very truly,
e. c.. POMMERENING,

NEW AUTO PLATES WITH
LETTERING IN BLACK

Wisconsin automobiles will have a
number plate next year of decidedly
different appearance from the plain
black and white ones now in USE All
the auto license plates for Wisconsin
in 1923 will be painted a light yellow,
with black figures.
Secretary of State Elmer S. Hall
made this announcement after arrang.
ing for the next years supply of ap-
proximately 375,000 plates. They will
be stamped out at the penitentiary at
Waupun and will be the same size
as this years. They will cost the
state between II and u cents each.
The background color is indefinite
1t is a bit darker than buff. 1t might
be said to resemble gold with the
CLINT taken out. The color was Sc
iected because the black figures
against it will be very distinct and be
cause the color will not dazzle in the
sun.
