I'VE have no sympathy with those
who seek to seize the power Of gov

there can be no lasting or stable

NO. l don't believe that co-opera-

apple standards. through averaging
and leveiing the quality and the price.
Rather I believe that cooperative sell

Here at Hood River We take nearly all
OF the prizes for spitzenburgs and Vel

pie has its own particular merit. which
could be made known by individual
