were all enthusiastically in favor
of forming an association to handle

held Saturday afternoon in the
Commercial Club rooms to form a
permanent organization and decide
upon plan of procedure in mark
citing the products. Two methods
are under consideration. One is to
consign direct to a commission

place salesman on the roads to sell
direct.
Those present pledged themselves
to raise 200 acres of cantaloupes,
and it is planned to ship two car
loads day during the season.
