cially had he never seen a hop. So
much for poor methods in selling.
cit is estimated there are at least
10000 hop growers in the United
States. Should each put only $40 in
stock, this would create a sum of $780,.
900 more than enough to fill and equip
the three offices as previously mention
ed. To meet running expenses of these
Offices 1 would have the samples that
the growers submit sold, and the
money turned into the organization. 1
weighed three samples last fall to as
certain what they would bring, and
found they weighed pounds; at zoe
per pound this would bring s1.20, or
$4,000 per annum for Office expenses
BY this system 1 believe we will have
no difficulty in keeping stocks well
sold out, by distributing hops among
growers so as not to overburden any
one particular section. The plan would
necessitate united action in the ques-
tion of restricting the hop acreage, so
as not to result in overproduction. =

A foremost spirit in the movement
for the NATIONAL organization of hop
growers is H. =. Locke of Otsego coun-
ty, New York. In a communication to
Orange Judd Farmer he says that the
most feasible plan for the uni6cation
of hop producing interests is to form a
national organization, and establish
houses at San Francisco, Chicago and
New York. Gas the brewer and ship.
per buy all their hops by sample" said
he, "why should not we growers dis
pose Of our produce in the same man
ner. We could thus eliminate the great
profits Of middlemen. With such sys-
tenn of selling by sample through an
association, I believe the hop farmer
could secure far more money from his
crops.
ssI propose that at these cities named
there be placed a sample of every
growth Of hops raised in the United
states, and with each sample be given
the growers name, postoffice address,
number OF bales, etc. Why shouldn't
we hop growers proceed like other bust
ness men, place our crops on the market
as ] have mentioned, and grade them
in three different grades with an aver
age price Of say zoe per pound.
ssUpder this plan we will not need
salesmen to handle our hops. The sys
tenn is thousand fold more convenient
for both brewer and shipper than is the
present method of selling the crop, and
a vast saving in expense can be Sc

try was first originated, I have heard
