"THAT LEAL carr

In our issue of March 16, 1928 under
the heading Zone Dollar and Thirty
Cents" we published an article refer
ring to a car of potatoes shipped from
Leal, North Dakota, by N. p. Nelson a
farmer. The Potato Digest of Mime
apolis, Mimi, of March %, 1923, has
this to say about this famous car:
"A most glazing instance of the
failure of the old marketing system
and the need of the new plan, is furn-
ished by that Leal carr, now become
famous.
For this reason, The Potato Digest
is spreading out all the records in the
case that che who runs may read" and
drap the moral.
The Minnesota Potato Exchange Of
fers no apologies. Those are due from
the shipper. The whole trouble lay in
gross neglect in the matter of grading,
packing and loadins.
The Exchange has done the utmost
that can be done, under the present
system, to encourage strict grading
and to show the disastrous results OF
carelessness in preparation for mark
ct. Throughout the growing season,
1t conducted a campaign through The
Potato Digest to bring up the grade
in Minnesota. The result of the work
Of all eduucuational agencies in the
state directed to this end, was that
the official grade has been raised
from 10 per cent U. S. No. l to 40 per
cent.
So much gained. But if the gain
had been much greater it would not
have touched the principle at stake,
which is the Exchange must have
the power to absolutely control grade.
This cannot be achieved under the
present go-as-you-please system. 1t
requires inspection at the shipping
point by an inspector who is respon-
sible to the Exchange.
When shippers try to foist on the
market mixed stock as U. s. No. l,
no Exchange on earth can get No.
prices for it. The just and inevitable
for such an attempt to cheat the pub
lie is that the car is sold as Junk"
ana brings the price u Tie pun oIoSh
instead of the good stock.
Quality and proper package are the
first essentials of merchandising on
a commercial basis. The Peteet-Sa-
piro plan is built on this solid founda-
ton.
California is just now lending to
Aroostook County, Maine, recently or
ganized on the new plan, man who
knows nothing at all about potatoes,
but who is an expert in grading and
packing. He will teach the growers
the science of the attractive package.
When Minnesota gets on that basis,
there will be no opportunity for such
as the Leal car. Until then, shippers
must take their chances.

with the bulk of the chamOis leather

WHITFIELD EXPOSES RUS.
SELL EXTRAVAGANCE.
Points Out How Political Friend
Favored.

Senatobia, Miss. June 11th. -
Henry l.. Whitfield, candidate for
governor, spoke to a large crow
here tonight. His speech was well
received and he undoubtedly added
many new supporters. In discussing
the present business condition oil
the state Mr.. Whitfield said that il
elected governor he would exert
every effort to abolish useless Offices
and to see that state officials render
ed full service for their compensa-
ton. He said that there was
extravaganza in the expenditure
of public funds and cited striking
exa mple.
He said, When the legislature
OF 1922 made its appropriation for
the University of Mississippi for
the present biennium (Chapter 4
House Bill 1858, Laws of 1929
there was placed in the bill rider
which expressly prescribed that the
appropriation was made on con-
dition that the secretary of the
University should not receive more
than $4,000 per annum. After the
legislature adjourned the Board OF
Trustees abolished the office of
secretary, created the new position
of business manager and placed the
the former secretary in charge.
One of the members of the Board
was John Falkner, attorney of Ok
ford and former law partner OF
Governor Lee M. Russell, and the
man who was the former secretary
and at present is the business man
ager is M. G, Falkner, a brother of
John Falkner. AS result, the
business manager, by authority OF
the Board. now receives 50 800 per
annum. In other words, the same
man, for the same work. now re-
ceives considerably more money
notwithstanding the plain mandate
of the Legislature. Such things will
not happen if Henry Whitfield is
elected governor. -
