"EAT MORE POTATOES"
CAMPAIGN SUGGESTED (By Telegraph—J?n>ss Association.) ASHBUETON, This Day. Because of the stagnant state of the potato market, the newly-formed Ashburton branch of the Potato Growers' Association will request the Government to find new uses for potatoes and new avenues of consumption. The Government will also be asked to ascertain what surplus will be available. It was suggested that an "eat more potatoes" campaign be launched, and that the growing of potatoes might be a partial cure for unemployment if the surplus could be disposed of. The aid of the Farmers' Union is to be sought in a search for the best means of marketing supplies this season.
