STATE AND GENERAL ITEMS.

Maine farmers can learn something
from the methods of marketing
adopted by western fruit growers.
Every year an early estimate is made
of the fruit produced and printed
slips are sent to intending buyers:
The apples are sold to the highest
bidder. The managers OF the State
Farmers department in Oregon de-
votes all his time to oversight of
fruit picking and packing. There
were calls for more than a thousand
cars in excess of the cars available to
handle the Oregan fruit crop. Maine
State Grange will soon move to CO.
operate with the legislature and with
itself to secure information along in
dustrial lines, and to visit sections
where the best work is done. No
farmer can afford personally to incur
this expense. We are GLAD to see
that our State farmers organizations
are taking active means to secure the
results here cited.
