COOPERATION
BEING URGED
H. H. Younger, in Annual Report to
Palisade Association, Urges Sales
Managers to Cooperate Dur
ing the Shipping Season.

More cooperation among the sales
managers of the various fruit ship
ping associations in the valley with
a view TO keeping the orchard pro-
ducts of the valley from competing
with itself in the open markets, is
the timely suggestion of Harry II.
Younger. manager of the Palisade
Fruit Growers association, in his
annual report which has just been
made public.
Mr. Younger believes that compe-
tition among the fruit growers as
sociations of the valley is responsible
for the unsettled feeling among the
growers"
SO long as there is more than one
selling agency, continues Mr.. Youn-
ger in his report, our sales and
distribution must conflict at times.
The result is less money for the
fruit. 1t would seem that some
remedy could be devised to prevent
this opposition to our own interests.
Probably the sales managers of the
different associations should get to-
sether with view to avoiding these
evils by knowing more of each 9TH
er's plans"
Mr.. Younger protested strongly
against independent marketlng OF
fruit on the ground that it destroyed
the cooperative organizations and
pointed toward the unsettled and un
systematized methods in use prior to
the organization of the old associa-
tions in the valley
Manager Younger also urged that
the growers be more loyal to their
associations and not be continually,
switching around among the differ
eni organizations.

Coming so closely after the death
of so many OF the old-timers of the
valley, the passing OF James Hume
Smith has created a feeling of terri
BILE loss in the community More than
that, there is a distinct shock In the
personal loss of this man VINO for 80
many years has borne the brunt Of
pioneering in Mesa county and has
1een so closely Identified with It's
greatest interests.
Today throughout the county
where the news has reached there is
a general expression of the deepest
sympathy for the Frustrated family
IN this terrible bereavement.
James Hume Smith was born at
Tioga, Pa, nearly fifty-five years ago.
He would have been 81 years of age
if he had lived until June Goth of this
year. Tioga. his birthplace, Is near
the city of Philadelphia.
Came of Quaker Stock.
The Smith family was one of the
oldest and best known in that section
of Pennsylvania. The parents and
relatives of the deceased were all
Quakers and fine and stalwart repre-
sentatives of that splendid class of
citizens. The father of James II.
Smith was George A. Smith, who for
many years was engaged in the
wholesale dry goods business in Phil
adelphia. He was prominently CON
neeted with the organization that
formed the plans for the great Cen
tennial exposition in 1876. He was
a very successful business man.
Graduate of University.
James II. Smith attended school at
Tioga and then entered the University
Of Pennsylvania He was graduated
with the class of 1879 That same
year his father. having become in
terested with other Philadelphia peo-
pie in the Palmetto Mine at Lake
City. Colo, came west to Colorado
on a trip and brought James II.
Smith, his son, with him. In those
days the Palmetto mine was consid-
cred a most valuable property and
one of the largest mining plants in
the San Juan country was installed,
The father returned east, but the
son remained at Lake City and was
actively and prominently connected
with the Palmetto property for sew
eral years.
Cast Their Lot with Colorado.
In 1882 the father died in the
home in Pennsylvania In the mean
time, George Payton Smith, a broth
er, had Joined James II. Smith in

termined to remain permanently in
