70, B, METHOD Of
SELLING FRUIT
j. w. Mcdonald States That
Growers Must Ultimately
Adopt This Method.

J. W. Mcdonald, representing
Mcdonald & Son, packers and dis
tributors of Wenatchee fruit, who
has established a plant at the can
merry, makes the following very apro-
pos comments on the recent slump
of peaches in the northwest:
THE very low prices that have
prevailed in the peach market this
season, and the recent disastrous
slump will soon be matters of his
tory. But before the losses and dis
appointments have been forgotten 1t
would be well to pause for NOM
ent to enquire in to the causes of
low prices, and to ask ourselves
whether the seasons experiences do
not teach an important lesson.
Low prices on any commodity are
caused by one or more of the fol-
lowing conditions: First, inferior
quality; Second, lack of demand,
and Third, failure to read the de-
mand.
Now, while it must be admitted
that the early peaches were not of
as good quality as usual, this can
not be said of the later varieties.
Few places, if any, produce finer Ell
bertas, Muirs and Crawfords, ETC.,
than were raised here this year; yet
great quantities of Crawfords are
now rotting on the ground, and FL
bertas went down to the ridiculous
price of thirty cents per box. Was
there, then, no demand? Indeed,
there was a demand, and the excell-
ent prices ruling in the east on Cali
fornia peaches prove it. The failure
of the Wenatchee peach growers lay
herein: namely, the failure TO reach
the consuming public.
1T is one thing to grow fruit, and
another wholly different thing to sell
it, and sell to advantage And, al
though the Wenatchee Valley pro-
duces quantities of magnificent fruit
the growers wholly lack an adequate
comprehensive plan of marketing.
Instead, it is a helter-skelter, grab
as-can scramble, where one man
does this and another that and some
markets are swamped and others get
nothing, with trouble, disappoint-
ment or loss as the portion of every
one concerned.
