Mr.. Schlacks agreed that they would
make a very nominal charge for the
transportation of this oil, provided
the growers would get in position to
use it and would become satisfied
that it is the proper thing to use.
Therefore. it is possible that this oil
can be laid in here at about cents
per gallon.
To Investigate 1t.
''At this price. the expense would
be very light on the growers. espe-
cially If all would use it.
Il have not investigated the pots
that are now being used sufficiently
to pass an opinion, but suggest that
some one or two citizens go to Cal
ifornia at the proper time and in
vestigate fully all the systems in use
in that country. and in this way all
of our growers would be working
under the same system; that is, with
the same kind of kettles or pots.
Can Use Coal.
81 also believe that we can use
coal to advantage, and possibly some
cheaper than oil; and, as California
uses both and has been using them
for number of seasons, there is no
question but what this scheme is the
proper one to follow up. BY all
growers buying the same kind of
smudge vessel, they should be able
to secure them at the very minimum
of cost.
Ready to Help.
II feel sure my association would
be very willing to stand the expense
, of investigating all the schemes now
in use in California;; and along this
line l suggest that the growers do
not rush into any contracts for any
particular kind of vessels until the
| matter can be fully investigated.
| which would enable them to get the
best of pots at the lowest price pos
| sible, and also, in this way, by all
, using the same system and the same
: kind of vessels. it would certainly be
| the most practical and inexpensive
method.
{; 'In my opinion. there will he nc
trouble whatever in getting all tbs
growers of the valley to prepare tc
smudge, If the matter can be proper
ly presented to them, and it surel.
will. Surely every grower will dc
all in his power to save his crop from
year to year, and ] am absolutely

crop, so far as damage by frosts is
