ANAHEIM ORANGE-GROWERS
Meet and Organize for the Coming
Campaign
Il Is Expected That Growers Who Have
Stayed Out Of the Exchange Will
Now Come In

ANAHEIM, Sept. 24.--A meeting of
the orange growers was held last evening
in Reiser's opera house, under the au
spices OF the Anaheim Fruit association,
for the purpose of listening to and profit
ing by such information as the eastern
representatives of the Southern Califor-
MIA fruit exchange, Messrs. Morehouse
and Plat, could impart. The attendance
was not large but the interest was keen
in what the speakers had to relate of their
experiences in securing the best posi- BILE
market for oranges. 1t is believed that
many of these growers in Orange county
who have not come into the exchange
as yet will place their names OH the list
this season.
Mr.. Chamblin of Riverside, the origi-
nator OF the exchange organization, was
present and made one OF his usual elo
quent addresses in advocacy OF the South
ern California fruit exchange. He ex-
presses the belief that eventually the
whole output of California fruits will
be handled and marketed according to
the plan of the Southern California OK
change, in which event hundreds of dol
lars will be saved to the fruit growers of
the state in the way of missions
saved and swindles prevented.
