Author of "Shut Your Mouth Tcle- gram To Dept of Agriculture Explains.

North Branch, Minn" May @S. CAP)-C. W. Peterson, manager of the Farmers Produce association and author of the telegram to the department of agriculture, advising the department to keep your mouth shut" about the intended 1925 po- tato acreage, said that he did not intend to insult the department of agriculture-it was just the way felt about the situation"
 "You sec" Mir. Peterson said its like this. The department of agri- culture got out circulars telling the farmers that there would be about T six per cent. decrease in potato acre. age this year.
 And the department said for the farmers to plant more potatoes and that's the trouble. They have plant cd so many around here that We have about a ten per cent increase over last year.
 That means we won't get anything for our potatoes. If the department of agriculture hadn't said so much the farmers wouldn't have planted SO many potatoes
