OF 



POTATO DEVELOPMENT WORK IN WISCONSIN 



BULLETIN PREPARED BY THE 



Wisconsin Potato Growers Association 



The "Potato Special" Enroute Through the Commercial Potato 

 Sections of Wisconsin 



Thirty-four years ago the first car of potatoes was shipped out 

 of Wisconsin. During 1913 the combined shipment of four rail- 

 roads amounted to approximately 35,000 cars. This Association 

 cannot attempt to relate the history of investment and develop- 

 ment which has made this industry possible. 



Today, however, the future promises a development of far 

 greater significance than that of the past. The markets of the 

 country demand attention to improved standards. This Associa- 

 tion is confident that the plan of work presented in this bulletin 

 will insure permanently a high standard for Wisconsin potato 

 shipments in the markets of the country.
