Michigan is recognized as one of the well * organized potato marketing states and the experience gained there - in the past is expected to be of special interest-to potato growers in this vicinity, especially at this time of the year when the potato grower is wondering just what to do with his crop.

U, French, secre- tary, shows marketable quantities in Beltrami, Crow Wing, Mahnomen and Carlton counties. Farmers will sell wood at the fol- lowing prices: $4.560 te $5.75 for-dry tamarack;-$5 for birch and elm; $6 for oak. All prices are on cord basis, loaded at shipping point and in car- load lots: “Conditions in the fuel and rail- road industries have brought about a situation that easily may cause hardship and privation in the state, unless a speedy remedy is found,” says President J. F. Reed. ‘“Many sections of the state have a large surplus of wood that can easily be prepared for fuel.

Goughnour, proprietor of the Motor Inn of this city, has been ad- vised by the Detroit offices that the Bemidji distributor led the United States for Chevrolet sales during the month of August this year. This is considered an honor of which any firm may well feel proud. During the recent fire sale held by the Motor Inn, all cars advertised in the Pioneer, one issue, were sold, which leaves the Motor Inn at the present time without cars, but Mr. Goughnour advises that he will have some 1923 models in within a few contractors | the 'second invasion by the Kemalists- Forty-eight hours ago, they entered th neutral zone, but as the command- ers stated, they did so under the impression the British had left and the Turks withdrew The seriousnésy of the situation is aggravating, ae: cording to allied officials, but it ‘is impossible to expwn this invasion by claiming another “mistake.” J s 1t is undexstood that Sir Harrington British commander-in-chief ' in" the Chanak area, has been’ notified of the allied ultimatum and 'has been ordered to attack in case terms of the demand are not carried out. It is reported here. that the Kem- alists have at least 3,500 picked = troops at Erenkeui and that rein- forcements are on the way- This, however, could not be confirmed. Mustapha Kemal is now at Smyrna thaving recently moved his head- quarters from Ismid befort the Brit- ish lines that are protecting Con- stantinople. It was presumed that e the ultimatum was served on him in person- The French authorities in Constatinople, according to British announcements, took up the Kemalist invasion with Hamid Bey, the Turk- ish representative of that city. Officials here are confident Kemal will order a withdrawal, pointing out it is likely that Kemal is ignorant of the invasion, or in any event, the march was ordered by some minor official before the allied note was received. &The allied note which was dispatch- ed to Kemal, invited him to attend a Near East peace conference at which the French, Itslian and Brit- ish governments_promised to support his claims to _Constantinople and every parl et P T traveled ;this season -on Minnesota LIGHT AND POWER COMPANY without the loss of a single life: [ p, f T sor : p 2 gle 3 orthern farmers are prepared to | offi d : will be in full op-|Thrace as far east as the Maritza = it .
