FRUIT GROWERS FIND THAT

Interesting Paper Subject By Well Known Authority to be

demands the attention of the pro.
ducers of each community. In

! would be glad to see the fruit
growers in every county in the
State organized iuto local societies.
The local organization could then
be made the unit from which a
more extended cooperative aud
concerted movement could be
formed having for It's sole object
the proper distribution of our
large crops. THIS, in my opiuion,
will be especially desirable aud
necessary whenever we have a
general apple crop throughout the
United States. | do not mean the

citation can market their apples
and receive the same benefits and
at the same time have full charge
OF the sales Of their products
whether it be on track or in the
market to which they HAYES hipped.
There exists today, between the
grower aud consumer of apples, an
expense that is prohibitive to con-
sumption even when the price to
the grower is only one dollar or
less per barrel for the fruit. |
brought this matter to the attention
OF the American Apple Growers
Congress at the annual meeting in
August, 1908. At that time the
jobbing price of apples on the
market was 1925 per barrel. The
retailer was charging 40f per peck
or a. 80 per barrel, a profit of 81
per barrel after allowing 55f per
barrel for shrinkage which is 25fs
Of the cost price and a liberal al
Iowance. In December. the same
year. made inquiry in another
city of railroad men, OF what their
families vera paying for apples.
They said 400 per peck. AT that
time in that city the jobbing price
was 1925 per barrel. At 40f per
peek, apples became luxury to
the masses. At 22f per peck, they
became a healfhfuI food product.
aud consumption would be increas-
ed ten fold. In other words, the
people Of the country will consume
as large a crop of apples as has
been produced when properly dis
| tgibuted and at a price that will
pay a reasonable profit &c the hand
I Ter. and 800 per barrel TO the
| grower for the fruit Oh the pack
ing table.
! By organization aud cooperative
eiforf, this condition can be brought
I allogl. Ia my humble opinion.

To the Audrain Co. Horticul
tural and Bee-keepers association:
received an invitation from
your secretary, Mr.. w. l.. Kent,
in January to deliver an address
before your society on the "Bene-
fits of Organization" Finding
that it will not be convenient for
me to meet with you in the near
future. Ia privilege l assure You |
would very much enjoy ! have
prepared this paper instead, which
| trust may in some way at least
add to your present interest in or
ganization aud il possible advance
some ideas that will encourage you
to greater efforts with more fixed
purposes and confidence in your
undertaking.
The greatest commercial aceieve.
ments in this country for many
years have been through organized
efforts. In recent years the most
successful fruit aud truck grow.
ing and marketing has been in
those sections of our country
where organization is most com.
plete. The old proverb I'm un-
ion there is strength" applies
with more force to no industry
than it does to agricultural and
kindred pursuits. The first es-
sential in successful fuirt growing
is a proper knowledge OF varieties
and kinds adapted to the locality,
aud Of the care aud cultivation
best suited to the soil to be plant
ed. Second. knowledge of the
best methods of treatment to in
sure a perfect product. Third. a
correct knowledge of the proper
time aud the proper way to gather
aud to pack. Fourth. of the best
methods of marketing, which in
my opinion is most important of
all. We may successfully grow,
gather and pack aud yet sacrifice
all by not understanding how, or
by not being in position to pro.
fitably market our crops or pro-
duets whatever they may be. A
