Handle Coal.


Those growers of the Payette Val
lev who have in the past had theil
fruit marketed by Denney & Co.
of Chicago will be gratified to learI
that after careful consideration o.
the location the company has de
cided to open up branch office
in Payette. For four years DenneI
& Co. have been represented II
Payette Valley by F. H. Hogue and
the fact that year by year the
amount of fruit they have handled
in this valley has increased is
proof positive that their methods
and the returns they have secured
for the grower doing business with
them have been satisfactory.
In speaking of their future ar
rangements in Payette Valley to
handle their business here Mr.
Hogue stated to a representative oil
the Enterprise.
eve have been quite well salts
fled with the amount of business
the growers of this valley have been
entrusting to our care from year
to year and it has been our con-
stant aim to reach out every year
and so establish our eastern con-
nections as to get us in the strong
est touch possible with the best
markets for fruits.
This year we feel that Denney
G. Co. are in better position than
ever before to successfully market
the fruit of the Payette Valley
Among other innovations is the Of
flee we have recently opened IN
Omaha. Nebraska, to handle all the
middle west trade. This office viii
be n charge of Howard G. Fletcher
a man of wide experience in fruit
salesmanship and who. for the past
ten years has been general sales
agent for one of the strongest fruit
associations in the west, that OF
the Grand Junction, Colorado, grow
ers. In this connection I might al
so state that we have secured the
contract this year for handling the
fruit for the Grand Junction Fruit
Growers Association for this year.
Just as soon as the 1911 crop
Is assured we will put up sufficient
new buildings and packing houses
% take care of our increasing busi-
ness and in addition to doing a
general fruit distribution we will
also handle coal and in this con-
,ection will arrange for the stor-
age of $500 tons of coal and to
handle this end of the business we
are building a new office and IN
stalling new team scales ar our
hacking house just south of Low
sr's Lane. To facilitate the prompt
delivery of all coal orders we have
made arrangements with the Blue
Line Transfer Co., which concern
will on April 1st establish an Of
ice in the building on Eighth
street formerly occupied by Hamb-
" G Peterson and has sufficient
.eams to guarantee prompt deliv-
cry Of all coal orders entrusted
o them"
The establishing of this branch
office in Payette by Denney & Co.
means that they feel confidence in
the future of Payette Valley as
,ruit section and the high averages
scored by them the past year on
apples and prunes have justified
hem in the expense of providing in
permanent buildings to handle theil
business. While Mr.. Hogue viii
make this his home, he is general
western manager for Denney & Co
and has the states of Idaho, Ore
gon. Washington and Utah under his
superyision and must necessarily be
away from Payette more or less
before fruit season, but during his
absence the business will be look
ID after by Assistant Manager F
e. Price.
