SEEK new SALES PLAN
GRAND JUNCTION FRUIT GROW
ERs MEET FEBRUARY 20.
Association Would Eliminate Middle
Men Who Take Heavy Toll On
Fruit Before Il Reaches
Consumer.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Grand Junction,-The annual meet
ing of the Grand Junction Fruit Grow
ers' Association will be held here Feb.
ruary 20.
Because of the low prices received
for fruit the past year there is much
discomfort among the ranchers Of the
valley, who believe that the method
of selling their fruit should be
changed. In the past the fruit has
been sold through agencies and com
mission men in the east, often going
through the hands of as many as six
different middlemen before 1t reaches
the consumer. The finest Grand Val
ley apples are selling for more than
50 per box in eastern markets. yet
little more than SIPS is received here.
There are two proposals under con-
sideration. One Is a union Of the
three fruit growers associations oil
the Grand Valley, and the ultimate
combination of all in western Colo
RADIO. The other is that of employing
travelling statesmen. There is doubt
in the minds of some growers about
the legality of western slope COM
bination. Some believe that it would
be monopoly and subject to dissolu'
ton under the Sherman ANTITRUST law.
