APPLE GROWERS
PROTEST RATES
IoWANS FIND THAT THEY ARE
FORCED TO PAY UNJUST
FREIGHT CHARGES.

Ames, July 10.-The Iowa Fruit
Growers association Is calling the
apple men of the central part of the
state to attend a meeting at Des
Moines, July IL, to consider a num-
Der OF important questions in con
nection with the marketing Of this
years apple crop. How to meet the
requirements of the new state law
on weights and measures, what to do
about the national apple barrel law,
how to get fairer freight rates on
shipments out of the state to east.
ern points, how to buy packages
more cheaply and how to market
more effectively will all be discussed.
In the matter Of railroad rates., the
Iowa shipper suffers serious discrim-
ination. 1t costs much more for the
Iowa apple grower to ship his fruit
into the Chicago market than the
New York grower, sometimes twice
as much. e. G.. Wylie, rate commits
sioner of the Greater Des Moines
committee, is assisting in the inves-
tigation of rates on apples and will
probably discuss the question at the
coming meeting Of apple men. Next
Tuesdays meeting at Des Moines
will be in the capitol building at the
offices of the Iowa Horticultural So
ciety and it is open to all apple
growers. ~
