number Of resolutions were read and
referred to the committee.
Philo Herspy, president of the Santa
Clara County Fruit Exchange, addressed
the convention upon the history of that
important and successful concern. 1t was
the outgrowth of cooperative DRYERS,
+: " hicii were established four years ago.
The five dryers in Santa Clara County last
respectively $500, $780, 1900, goo and 100
tons OF fruit. He went into detail as to
the financial proceeding, of the excb ange
last season when the banks would not loan
money aud told how the business was sue
cessfullv conducted. -. 49,.
Mr.. Hersey explained how the exchange
watched the markets and took care not TO
send forward a supply large enough TO
break the market. An over-supply would
necessarily break prices. In this: manner
growers who shipped through the ex-
change always got the full value OF their
products. $50. -: :
:. He cautioned the convention against
communities or indiyidusIs acting in
dependently of other communities, and
lnstanced a severe loss last season through
lack OF cooperation. Fresno. and "Vaca-
VILE rushed their apricots to market. With
Inc KhoW1edgeathat: tbe crop was short
and sold at 6l1a to cents. San Jose could
not ship until the Fresno and VacayIlie
product was out OF the road. As a result
their first sales yielded ~ cents and from
that the price rose steadily until 1t reached
y Cents and the fruit not better than
Y acayille had sold earlier in the seasoniat
7 cents.
The speaker strongly urges fullest CO.
operation. but frowned, OF any act which
could lead to a charge that this excl aiIge
was playing a~"ciHeh" game. They should
