The plan of White Bros. & Crum
for separating the fruit growing
business from the sales department

incorporators being W. A. White, e.
A. White. George E. Crum. White
Bros. & Crum and C. A. Hayton.
The new company's business will
be managed by Mr.. Hayton. who has
been identified with the Alpowa
fruit ranch for a number of years.
The company also owns valuable
fruit land at Bishops Bar, on the
lower Snake river and near Myrtle
on the upper Clearwater. OF the
three tracts approximately 240 acres
are now set to fruit, and an addi-
tional acreage of 140 acres will be
planted as soon as arrangements for
this department of the work are
completed.
The firm of White Bros & Crum
is the old firm exporting fruit
from the Lewiston and Snake river
country, and the Lewiston prod
ucts handled by them have been
placed on sale in all of the big mar
kets of the United States. The COM
pany acquired the first fruit tract
! near Alpowa several years ago. and
since that time the purchases on the
lower Snake river and near Myrtle
have been made. The plan to sepa-
rate the lands from the sales de-
partment was conceived last year

partments without conflicting re-
suits.

nate delay and the possible miscar-
riage of mail.
