buy u Dryers will carefully carr, out
the instructions given them, as to dry
ing, bleaching, asserting, packing and
marketing the products, they can not
only save their fruit, but will be able to
realize out of their sales remunerative
prices. Soliciting your orders, and
promising prompt attention to the
same.
