WHO DtIlGAG III lIG NOOJCl dllOil oA the fruit growers of Northwest Arkansas are earnestly requested to be present at our meeting on Saturday, 18th inst, at the office of Squire Graves. o'clock D. Ill.
 J. T. CRAIG. Sec.
 The Fayetteville Fruit Growers Union is advertising for 1000 berry pickers.
 J. P. Payne, of Van. Buren, representing the Ozark Fruit Growers Association, was here Friday and Saturday.
 It is said that some of the fnem- bers of the Berry Association have expressed a detirmination to withdraw unless the association joins in the eo-ope rative move ment.
 April 27 IS the earliest date berries have ever been shipped from Springdale and May 4 Is the earliest date for car lot shipments They will not be as early this season.
 The frost and slight freeze last week did comparatively no dam age to the berry crop. Only very few of the blooms were kill ed. The plants have attained a splendid growth and the fields are becoming white with blooms.
 The Fruit Growers Association at Gravett announces that they will pay , cents per quart for picking this season. So far as known every association in this section will pay this price and a good picker can make 52.00 d day.
 The Argus says at meeting of the Van Buren Association last week 1t was decided to have d more rigid inspection of berries than ever before. Van Buren's crop this year is estimated at 200 cars, about the same as last year, and with favorable weather 1t IS expected crate shipments will be- gin by the middle of tl.e month and car lot shipments by the 18th inst. Van Buren growers fear scarcity of pickers and efforts are being made to secure outside help.
 The Shippers Union held meeting Friday afternoon and after discussing the matter voted not to unite with the Ozark Fruit Growers Association. The di- rectors had intended holding a meeting but so much time was consumed at the stockholders meeting that 1t was postponed until tomorrow-Saturday. An other meeting of the stockholders of the Union will be held the first Saturday in May. which will be the last until after the ship ping season.
 An interesting meeting of the Berry Growers Association was held Saturday afternoon, the ob- Ject of the meeting being to dis cuss the advisability of uniting with the Ozark Fruit Growers Association. After lengthy dis eussion the Association by vote of 30 to ? decided not to go in. The question has not been finally disposed of, however, and another meeting of the Association will be held on the 22nd. when the question will again be up for con- sideration. Those who are in favor of the movement express the opinion that that at the ueYf meeting they will be in the ma. jority.

SECRETARY SHAW ENTHUSIASTIC

Assured of a Genuine FIGHT

Secretary Shaw was at his desk today
having returned from the republican state
convention at Roanoke. He was enthusi-
astic as to the republican outlook in the

He rarely talks for publication on any
subject but today he said: The conven-
ton was a Representative one and greatly
Interested. l was told that the gathering
was the most representative one the state
has had in many years, either democratic
or republican. The night was exceedingly
warm, but SO much interest was shown that
men stood for over two hours listening to
the speeches and proceedings. Represen-
ative Slemp is a wonderful organizer, and
an astute man and politician. I talked
with good many democrats and asked
them as to the republican prospects. None
of them cared to admit that the state
would go republican this year. but all of
them said the republicans would make
great gains, and l am sure this Is apparent
The republican leaders were hopeful, en-
thusastic, willing to work. and that means
a great deal. l am certain that the demo-
Gratis of Virginia are at last assured of
genuine fight, and that in the future they
will have to fight for control of affairs in
the state"
