II. M. Walker of Glen
Has Good Words for
The Potato Exchange
H. M. Walker of Glen, Neb., in Sioux
county, visited in Alliance Thursday,
and in a conversation with the Herald
reporter made it plain that he is not
only S oux county's most active boost
er, but that he is one of the strong
adheients of the Nebraska Potato
Growers Co-operative exchange, and a
firm believer in its possibilities.
Mr. Walker is a potato inspector for
11 is own bailiwick and knows some
thing of the problem of selling spuds
at a profit. Sioux county isn't et
listed with the big potato' producing
counties of the state,' but some two
hundred acres near Glen were planted
this last year, and next year's crop
will be at least twice as large, und
possibly three times. Practically nil
or the potatoes have been ' shipped
through the Nebraska exchange, v h ch
has headouarters at Alliance, with the
result piat every one of the growers
is a strong booster for the co-opem-tive
marketing plan, and the track-side
buyers have had to retroat to other
fields.
"It's time vip-ht now to put wertein
Nebraska on the map," Mr. Wnlkcr
said, "the potato crop, in such s-oil
as we have here, offers perhaps tlie
purest opportunity for profit, provided
they can be sold at an advantage. The
co-operative marketing plan, where the
fa!es are in charge of a bitf central
organization like the North American
Fruit exchange, with branches all o,-er
the country, solves this problem.
"Judging from news reports of tie
potato game the past year or two,
Sioux county hasn't been a part if
western Nebraska, The newspapers
have told of the enormous cips in
l'ox Butte, Sheridan, Da.ves and a
couple of other counties, but Sioux
ctfunty hasn't been mentioned. I'm
going to devote my time fro.n now cn
to seeing that it gets its ritrlitfu!
place. We have a comparatively new
country out where I live-. It hasn't
been so many years since sheep graz
ing was about the only sign of lfe.
But we'll be on the map before l.ng.
"It won't be long before potato
growing is one of the chief industries
of western Nebraska. Over at Craw
ford the merchants have rciliV.eJ it?
importance, and they are talking of
building a spud cellar that will furnish
storage for thirty or forty thousand
bushels, at their own expense. They
will make a small charge for the j;c
commodation, of course, but it will bt
I of tremendous help to us. . We arc
! figuring out in our part of the orntr.v
on organizing local companies to builr
potato cellars in half a dozen towns,
such as Marsland, Belmont, Gordon
Clinton, Glen and others, to hold from
ten to twenty thousnnd bushels n.th
"The potato exchange has beer
working under considerable of u handi
cap the first year it has been in busi
ness. , To begin with, there have Keen
a few. disastrous failures in the co
operative game, and these things make
the farmers a trifle shy about going
into another unt'l they know how it b
iroinir to turn oat' Snmp f l!n mon
who shipped through the exchange
consigned only the:r poorest stuff. Out
at Glen we don't do it that way. We
have had an opportunity to compare
prices at trackside with those we
realized through the co-operative sys
tem, and there's no comparison. Only
a week ago a neighbor of mine was
offered $1 at trackage for a car of No.
1 Triumphs, and the same day he sold
them through the exchange at $l..r0.
Yesterday I old a car ut $1.20 for
which I had been offered only SO cents.
Men in my part of the country are
well pleased, and I predict that, by th't
time next year, there'll be a whole lo'
more potato growers agreeing witlt
them." '
