and il we cooperate In putting il on the
market, we will make great deal Of
money; il We quarrel among ourselves
and put our melons on the market in
conflict with others, we will get nothing
for our labor and the commission men
will get all the money.
The author OF this article above re-
ferred to complains that Wetzel il max
ing some money. I want to nsk him n
question. Ii it not to our interest that
Wetzel make some money? Don't you
know that il he doesn't make money he
will not come back another year? II is
poor policy for us to trade with n man
on such terms as to prevent him from
making any money. For my part don't
care how much money he makes, SO he
pays the growers the amount he agrees
to in the contract. Everybody knows
that 81 cents a crate is fine price for
this melon, and il he can hold together
for several years and get that much, the
Melted Gem will bring millions Of dol
lars into this valley.
In conclusion want to say that I am
not welded to Wetzel or the Western
Poultry 4 Game Co., but am in favor
OF cooperation first, last and all the
time. Let us stand by Wetzel this time
because by 30 doing we bring abont CO
operation in the valley. IfWetzel doesn't
do the right thing, let us turn him down
next year and get some one else, but let
us stand together.
Yours for harmony and cooperation,
Arkansas Valley Ranchman.

Must Send Good Goods.

Some shippers complain at the ,nspec.
tors for requiring 30 much repacking
that over-ri pc or unripe cantaloupes may
not be shipped. The inspectors do ex.
actly right in refusing to allow poor
stock to be shipped. All growers
should recognize the fact that the extent
and profitableness OF the business for the
future depends on keeping up the pres.
emit high grade and reputation. The
great demand now existing can easily be
utterly ruined by sending poor goods to
market. We make the following ex-
tracts from letter received by the asso-
citation from the H. B. King Co, Pueblo
which shows the Importance OF packing
only the best Of goods.
ave beg to write you in regard to can
teloupes aud watermelons, not ms COM
plant, but for the benefit Of the associa-
there is hard fight here for the trade.
End, the Pueblo association is in position
to furnish stock about "a hours fresher
than we get from you. and their selec-
tion and packing is fine. In order to
maintain the reputation of the Rocky
Ford cantalonpes it would be best to
send nothing but the genuine cantaloupes
also caution growers to be more careful
in selecting melons, great many over
ripe, and we arc bound to have trouble
unless they can guard against this. We
have written the growers at Fowler to
ship nothing but genuine cantaloupes.
At present, market Is crowded and sales
slow. Have wired you tonight to express
30 crates of Fancy Fresh canteloupes."

We trust that our farmers will not
allow the rush of cantaloupe business to
cause them to neglect the preparation Of
large exhibits for the Fair. The season
has been most favorable one and there
is the raw material on our ranches for
the best exhibition ever held. AS our
farmers, gardeners and stockmen have in
the past fully appreciated the importance
of good exhibits ut the Fair we are conf
dent that they will do the same this sea-
son. More than the usual large crowd is
going tol be present and they should
find much better display in all lines
than at any previous year.
