BLIGHT, PRICE BULLETINS PLANNED County Potato Organization , Formed At Cardigan Meeting The | province has a new. potato organization. A i chair- ed by George MacDonald, St. Georges formed The Potato Farmers’ Association-at a meet- ing in-Cardigan Hall, Saturday night. It covers Kings County only, but Mr. -MacDonald told _ The Guardian they. will help to organize the other two counties - if they so desire.

There was criticism that the’ Potato Producers Association “with no membership is recog- | nized by the present government | as representing the potato grow- ers of thé province.” Mr. MacDonald did not reveal | any names but he did say that } | the idea of the Potato Farmers’ Association was conceived in a smal] meeting of six growers, and) | _ INSIDE TODAY Editorials Summerside _..

The problem was introduced by the chairman called it off when no | definite opinion was developing. The membership will be limited to bona fide potato grow- ers, but that will include growers | who are also dealers. AMBITIOUS PLANS Ambitious.aims of the new as- sociation -include ‘‘daily noon- time market reports on potatoes | at an unspecified number of Is-” land points. The reports would cover prices, and the quantity being offered on the market at any given time. _ Daily bulletins on blight and appearance of disease fields are included -under ‘‘co- operation of information.” There: will be checks on the | composition and the price of | fertilizers, Mr. MacDonald, said | that Eastern Kings had to pay |two dollars per ton more last year than.did other parts. , Fees will be set by,the direct- lors. and approbed -by the mem-- bership. There was no suggest- ion. as to what they might be, or how they are to.be collected. Represented ,at the meeting were such communities as Lower Montague, Greenfield, Dundas, Howe Bay, Launching and St. Georges.» ec Guardia “Covers Prince Edward Island Like The Dew” CHARLOTTETOWN, CANADA, MONDAY, MARCH 21, 1966. § Red Myster Seen Anti-Missile Sites Any decision on the contentious ject of- grading tourist estab- its will be left to the semi- | meeting in May, it was decided by the directors of the P-E.I.
