with no other intention than to
make it a winner. Realizing that
the four essentials to success are
good stock, proper feed, close APP
plication to business and a COM
plete record Of costs, Mr.. Skel-
ton is not overlooking any of
these details. He is one of the
few farmers of the valley who
is keeping an absolute record of
every item of cost and when he
produces a pound or pork he will
know exactly what it cost. Mr..
Shelton last week purchased a
yearling registered Duroc Jersey
boar of Poston & Sons of Carley
which he believes is the finest
animal in the valley. He will
place the animal at the head Of
his herd and also expects to put
him on the show circuit this fall.

CUT PEACH HANDLING CHARGE
Yakina Valley Associates Makes Rsasetisa #
TIVE Cess Bsx

The executive committee Of the
Fruitgrowers' association, at its
session in North Yakima Satur-
day. decided to cut the centrars
handling charges on peaches this
year from q to ID cents per box
and to deduct district charges on
the same basis, unless instruct
ed to the contrary
Last year some of the districts
charged % cents, some 2 cents
and some ID cents, while the CEN
trrl charged % cents. Uniform
| ity is desired, and the members
of the executive committee ex-
pressed the opinion that the dis
tricts which they represented,
Selah, Naches, North Mob Hill,
Wapato, Zillah, Emerald and
Kennewick, would be satisfied
with the 13-cent price. The com.
mittee has no authority over the
the district charge, and if the
charge named is not satisfactory
the districts may notify central
! The handling charge made by
central of 5 cents per box on ap'
pies and pears and % cents pei
box on prunes will remain thu
same. The charge on cherries
will be the same as last year, bu
adjusted on either a straight PEI
pound basis, regardless of form
of package, or on a percentage O
sale price basis.
