Mr.. Rose read an address appealing &c
orange growers not already in the unior
to come in. The address, as follows
was ordered printed in circular form
and distributed throughout Southern
California:
Won are aware of several meeting
having been held for the purpose Of de
visinQ some way to aid the orang'
growers to the profitable marketing O
their fruit. You, no doubt, in common
with us, have had some experieno.
which shows you that combined actor
is necessity, and what to do--what i
best to do-has been the question which
has been discussed by the different fruit
growers in their various meetings. A
corporation has been formed known as
the
ORANGE GROWERS PROTECTIVE UNION
OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA.
with capital stock of hundred thous-
and dollars, divided into 10000 shares
OF five dollars each. and shares have
boon taken from ten to one hundred by
different growers, the larger number be
ing the limit that can be taken by one
individual. 1t Is desired that all of this
stock should be subscribed for, and 1t is
believed that payment of ten per cent
will pay all expenses OF running this
Union for one year. 1t is now agreed
that we have certain officers who draw
a salary for the time that their services
are needed, which are a Secretary in
Los Angeles, and he, too. is manager,
under the direction of the Board OF Di-
rectors; an agent to visit the different
cities East where oranges can be sold for
the purpose Of making arrangements
with responsible commission houses
TO whom the members of this or
ganization will consign their oranges
at a rate Of commission not to exceed .
per cent and arranging with each firm to
notify our agent at Kansas City the state
OF the market, the prices that oranges
are selling for and the quantity on hand,
so that no one locality be overstocked.
Also an agent in Kansas City who exam
ines the cars when they arrive to see that
the cars are properly ventilated and 9th
erwise in order, and who forwards them
to des, nation indicated by the shippers.
or II upon information in his possession
he finds one city oyerstocked where such
shipments are consigned, that he send
to some other city where oranges are
wanted to our agent as established by
our travelling agent. This makes three
paid agents of the Association, all told
All accounts Of sales will be made ont In
the name of the shipper, and all such ac
counts with the amount OF proceeds will
be sent direct to the shipper.
You will see from this that all our
machinery for running this Fruit Unior
is very simple and our expenses small
