ADDRESS TO THE GROWERS.
BY DIRECTORS OF FRUIT AS
ISOLATION.
Subscriptions to Stock for Refrig-
orator Line Must be In by
the 10th Of january.

At a meeting of the directors Of the
Fruit Growers Association held at the
Capitol yesterday the following address
| to the growers was formulated:
[ To the Deciduous Fruit Growers OF
California: We, the Board of Directors
of the Fruit Growers Association OF
California, elected at meeting OF the
fruit growers of California, held at the
city of Sacramento on June IL, 1879.
respectfully submit for your considera-
ton the following:
| First-We think it advisable to estab-
lish the principal place of business Of
| the association at the city of Sacra-
mento, on account of it's central loca-
| ton.
| Second-We recommend local fruit
growers organizations in each locality
where any considerable quantity OF
! fruit is grown and shipped; such local
organization to be auxiliary to and
work in harmony with the State organ
| ization' Il
! Third-We believe one of the great
sources of evil in this whole fruit ship
! ping business is the fruit from the diff
! ferent parts of the State coming into
! competition, and to obviate this diff
Guilty in the future, we recommend that
all deciduous fruit be distributed by the
manager of the State association at
| Sacramento. Under the present sys-
tenn of telegraph and telephone COM
munication, all shipping points in the
State can be in constant communication
with Sacramento and the shipping des-
tinations can be quickly sent to any To-
| cality where shipments are made; in
this way the glut in the Eastern mar
| kets can be- obviated, because the Office
| in Sacramento will know where every
car has gone and consequently an over
supply will not be sent to any locality.
We propose to have our own agents in
| the East to see that the fruit is prop
erly disposed of. and to furnish cars for
the transportation of the same, charg-
| ing for refrigeration services only suffi-
cient to cover the actual cost, which
cost we guarantee shall be at least a
| reduction Of from 60 to 70 per cent. Of
present rates.
| We believe a plan of this kind will
solve the fruit problem and permit
what profits there may be in fruit
growing to go into the pockets of the
growers instead of into those Of the
commission men.
Let every fruit growing locality in the
State organize, take stock in the State
organization, and as soon as the total
amount of stock so subscribed shall
amount to the sum of $500, 900 then
the Board of Directors will proceed to
incorporate, elect officers and be ready
| to transact business, but in no event
| shall the time for receiving said sub
scription sum of 100000 be extended
| beyond the 10th day of January, 1900

PHOENIX DROP A GAME.
Go Down Before the Colusa Public
and It's Ball Team.

The Phoenix team of this city played
the Colusa team at the latter place on
Sunday, and to say it was a good game
would be putting it mildly. 1t was the
best game seen upon the Colusa dia-
mond in years, according to Colusa peo-
ple and to a good many of the specta-
tors it was a revelation as far as base
ball goes.
Score: Colusa 4, Phoenix g.
Both teams played top-notch ball,
and although the Phoenix lost they
have no complaint to make, as they
are satisfied that they played a good
game, and ball of the quality that the
Colusa cranks have often read about,
but seldom seen.
From the first inning to the ninth the
Phoenix had victory in their grasp.
After playing their half of the ninth
the score was 3 to 2 in their favor
but there came a change When the
Colusa team went to the bat in their
half of the ninth the spectators, fully
100, decided to take the matter in their
own hands, and give the home team
some courage with little ginger. And
they more than filled their fondest ex-
pectations. Until this inning the crowd
had held itself within bounds, cheering
both teams on, but when in the ninth
Fitzgerald gave the first man up free
transportation, a mighty roar went up,
and the crowd-and such a crowd
swarmed out on the diamond, yelling
cheering, ringing bells, each individual
trying to Guido his neighbor in the
making Of noise. Hats and canes could
be seen flying through the air in all
directions; but the Phoenixs might
have stood this had not the ladies
added their mite to the din and roar.
The Phoenix team have been in a
good many tight places, but that was
too much for them, and while they
tried to pull together it was of no avail
They went to pieces, and lost. The
Colusa boys won the game but the
honor to a large degree belongs to the
spectators in the grand stand and on
the diamond
The Sacramento boys were we'll re-
ceived, and they have only words of
praise forkthe Colusa team, it's man
ayers and the public in general, and
when they go to Colusa ON the 10Th
of July they will try to give them an
other good game, but with victory on
the right side Fitzgerald pitched fine
ball, and his support was of the best.
Up to the ninth the Phoenix had one
error chalked against them.
Summary-Colusa 4. hits 3, errors 3;
Phoenix 3, hits 6, errors 3. Batteries
Beville and Hanson Fitzgerald and
Armstrong.

pose to give the senior class all the hon.

ates of the High School as scholarship
fund to assist in sending one or more
