and members of the executive commit

which controls large part of the fruit
crop of the state convened here today
to hear reports on the years operations
and to make plans for the future she
reports show a prosperous season sor
the fruit growers of Georgia, and She
exchange has sufficient cash on Tao5
to carry its operations well into nfxr
season. President BaGley recommends
that growers pledge their shipments
for a period of three or more years
thus saving the expense of annual ys-
organization and enabling the ez-
change to malntoin high prices for the
products of Georgia orchards aud
fields. The exchange is also seeking
the corporation of melon and cantz-
loupe growers, and if this movements
is successful. consumers will probably
have to pay much higher prices fog
Georgia melons next year.
