A PITTSBURG HOUSE

One of the Largest Commission Mer- chants in the Country, Will Handle CantaIoupes.

As was announced in yesterday mornings paper. the cantaloupe bus mess of tkis valle- is a growing one and next season there is to be a much larger exploitation of it than hereto fore. Instead of only one commission house representing the valley in the markets Of the east, there will be at least two. and instead of two associa- tiOns of cantaloupe growers there will be at least three, perhaps more. Here tcfore the product sent east has been handled and marketed mainly by H. Woods of Chicago. but the field here has now been entered by the firm of Crutchfield & Woolfolk of Pittsburg. represented by IT. B. Pearson, who is familiar with the producing districts of the west. Mir. Pearson has been in the valle- a few da~s and has suc- ceeded in closing a contract with the Tempe association to handle its product next gear NIT. Woods has a contract with the Mesa association though it is likel:- M- Pearson will also have some acreage there. A number Of growers on this side of the river are now preparing to organize an effec-
 tice association, and it is expected will
 plant q large acreage the coming year. Mir. Pearson who had intended

off and doing nicely but the citizens with their rooms for rent during fair week. MT. Francioli is the right man for the office details and has every thing in fine shape. He handles the business quickly and methodically but wants more of 1t to do. Yesterday enough rooms were listed to accommo- date about seventy-five visitors. That is a good start but it is hoped there will be three times as many listed to- day. The prevailing price asked for the rooms by householders is from s1 to s1.50 per day. but whatever the price. much or little. the citizens are asked to list the rooms for the visitors must be housed.
 A pleasing feature of the listing yes terday was the fact that so large per centage of the rooms came from the best people in the city, socially and ev- cry other way, people who would really prefer to not have their rooms rented at all, people who don't particularly need the money. don't care to have their names mentioned and only offer the rooms because of their loyalty tO the city and their hospitality to ex- pected visitors. This is mentioned as an encouragement to others to list rooms. There is no danger of the householders being thrown into the category of lodging housekeepers and again it is urged that everybody who has spare room, good bad or indif- ferent, just so it is habitable. list it as soon as possible.

Phoenix. as referred to in another col umn.
 The firm Of Crutchfield and Wool folk is one of the largest in the Unit ed States and does a tremendous busi- ness, in all the leading eastern mar kets. One feature of its business is in the diversion of car loads of produce in transit made feasible by a good or ganiZation and a close touch with all markets. For instance. if a carload is billed to Chicago and about the date of it's arrival, the market there should be weak. and the market in Buffalo or New York be strong. the car at no additional expense. is diverted by wire to the point where the product com mands the best price. A car billed to Pittsburg might finally be rolled along to Boston before it was unload ed. In this way, says Mir. Pearson, the highest price is always obtained and he has the figures to show where the producers represented by his house, with the same quality of goods on the same dates. received much bet ter prices than did those who operat- tu lilTNuEu At AS eh matter of a large business, well or ganized.
 Another feature of the business con- ducted by MT Pearson, is that he in sists upon publicity. Instead of mere ly remitting for produce at the figure it is sold for, his sales reports show what market the goods were placed in, the date of sale, the price receiv- ed, and the expense of handling. These sheets are made out in triplicate, one copy of which is sent to him in the field and the third copy furnished to the growers' association that shipped the goods.
 Another thing that he insists upon is entire absence of misrepresentation as to the origin of goods. If canta- loupes are raised in California. Phoe- nix, Tempe. Mesa Rocky Ford. or Tennessee. he insists that they be sold under some local name. both for the benefit of the grower and the patron. He contends that if the quality is fine there is no occasion to use the name of an inferior article, but a reputation for the finer goods should be built up If the goods are inferior they cannot be sold over a name that has a reputation. for the buyer cannot be fooled a great while. He proposes next year to have the Tempe melons wrapped in paper bearing their own brand and build up a reputation for them.
 He marketed large part of the crop last season from the Imperial country. shipping from Fl Centro, and had many patrons there who made three and four hundred dollars an acre on

A BUSINESS TALK ABOUT CtNIRAL AVENUE
The Proposition is Presented on the Basis of Dollars and Gents and it's Consideration is Unavoidable.

Sunday afternoon from 3:3O until dark Central avenue was cloud of dust most of the time from the city limits to the Indian school corner. In some places the dust is one-half an inch deep. If those who are interested in keeping the avenue in good condition do not accomplish something towards having it sprinkled within the next few days. during fair week it will be almost as dusty as it was before the rain.
 The people living in the road district have raised by a speclaI tax of seventy five cents on the $lO0 valuation. about sl1O0, but this will not be available un- III January, and even then it will be probably used for permanent improve ments and repair work, instead of sprinkling. The residents of Central avenue have also subscribed $SOO. on condition that the people of the city subscribe $500, to keep the avenue sprinkled and surfaced. so that it will be smooth from the city limits to the Indian school corner.
 A careful estimate has been made of the amount of traffic and driving on Central avenue. Only ten per cent ot the total is by residents of the dis trict Another ten per cent is by other people living outside of the district, while eighty per cent is by city resi- dents and tourists. A great many of those living in the district think that If they pay taxes on the highest as- sessed valuation outside the city. and ,-ff doing more than their share, in view of the fact that only ten per cent of the driving is done by them. One gentle man at the meeting Saturday after noon at the board of trade stated that he had bought some property on Cen tral avenue with the intention Of build ing a nice residence. but if something could not be done to keep the dust down, he did not think that he would build, as he would rather live in the city where there is less dust
 If the people of the city and those of Central avenue continue to be so fearful that one will get some benefit at the expense of the other, nothing will be done. and a great deal of money expended in advertising the valley will be lost. Those having property for sale. and those especially interested in the valley, cannot expect to accomplish much in the way of sales, if after the people came there is not single drive outside the city that can be taken by the would-be investors without being choked to death by clouds of dust. We have enough liberal minded cit zens. both in the city and fin the Central avenue road district. to make that thoroughfare the most pleasant drive in the southwest. if they can only be brought to see the matter in the proper light.
 The members of the board of trus- tees of Central avenue road district Messrs. Hahn, Lamson and Tweed. are willing to devote as much time as is necessary without charge to the work Of looking after the work of hiring teams adn other help. and seeing that the money is expended where it will do the most good for the most people concerned, if enough IS subscribed to make t worth while.

complaint was filed against the Cot tage saloon yesterday was that the proprietor had said that he would not resist the revocation of his license on November 2 and that he was moved to this policy of nonresistance by a desire to avoid the five year penalty; that is. the provision of the new law under which one whose license is re- voked after a hearing may not be granted a saloon license for a period of five years.
