Men who have been growing and spraying potatoes under our direction for the past two or three years find their customers satisified and are getting repeat orders for $1.00 a bag : Other men who are finding their potatoes starting to rot, are digging them and flooding the market at 75c a bag. In some cases these potatoes have already commenced to go bad in the grocers' cellars, The result that a lot of dealers are done with local potatoes for another year will buy New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island table stock. It would seem that the time is ripe for the organization of local potato growers' association who will properly grade and guarantee their product." PERSONAL INSURANCE G. E. R.
