tized. Six years ago in California,
which was coming to be the most inn
>portant orange-producing territory in
the world, competition, high shipping
rates and other factors were beginning
to take the profit out of orange grow
ing This fact fostered the advertising
idea among orange growers. Co-opera-
tive societies that existed had been con
soidated into one big Exchange, and
advertising was begun. The result was
an increased demand, protection of the
growers and the opening up of oppor
tunity. During its brief life the Cali
fornia Fruit Growers Exchange has
marketed over 100000 worth of
citrus fruits, mainly oranges, and its
present annual sales of oranges approx
innate more than 100000.
The advertising campaign has dwelt
on the healthfulness of oranges, and the
wonderful growth of the business
amounts to a tribute of the American
people to this delicious California fruit,
which to-day has become a household
necessity. Only few years ago or
anges were Sunday fruit. To-day they
are daily food, and the modern house
wife knows many ways of preparing
them for the table. Orange salad, or
ange cake, orange punch, are no longer
unknown to us.
The campaign also has decreased the
cost of oranges, size and quality con
sidered, by decreasing the cost of mar
keting. This has put the orange in the
reach of the rich and poor alike.
And, best of all, it has guaranteed
the quality and healthfuness of the
orange. In the old days transportation
was so slow and there was so little svs-
tenn in the business that oranges had
to be picked green in order to be salable
when they reached the retail dealer.
The result was oranges that were too
sour, sometimes even bitter On the
other hand, when an orange can be al
lowed to ripen on the tree it attains its
miximum possibilities as regards fruit
sugar, juciness and flavor
The superb selling system which mar
kets the great majority of California
oranges to-day makes it possible to pick
the oranges from the trees after ripen,
ing and have them in the fruit markets
of the eastern cities within few days.
after a rapid transcontinental trip in
specially designed refrigerator cars.
When you buy o Sunkist Orange in your
city now it is just as if you had picked
it yourself from its cradle of dark green
foliage in a sunny orange grove of Cali
fornia and had sped by fast train across
the continent with it in your pocket.
