the demand for the so called Hood Riv.

JOSEPH DI GIORGIO Is A FACTOR
Auctions Are Not Owned By California
Operators
By Arthur M. Geary

The entrance of Joseph DiGiorgio in.
to the fruit marketing business of the
Pacific Northwest has aroused consider
able apprehension on the part of the
shipping associations and organizations
that occupy the field.
The question has arisen among the
Northwestern shippers - what effect
will the selling Of box apples at auc-
tion have upon Joseph DiGiorgio?
never had the pleasure of meeting
Mr.. DiGiorgio until couple of weeks
ago in the Commercial hotel in North
Yakima, when | frankly asked him
what he thought of selling box apples
at auction. His answer was, IL be-
lieve that selling at auction in the
largest cities is the proper method.
Ny brother in Baltimore has been buy
ing cars of apples and selling them
regularly at auction for some time.
We sell the deciduous fruits from Cali
fornia at auction and you find prosper
ity among the growers. By using the
auction you eliminate two or three of
the four or five links that now counnect
the consumer with the producer.
do not mean TO state that Mr.. Di-
Giorgio said he was going to use the
auction for box apples. as this might
be untrue, because he is closely affiil-
ated with jobbing houses in Baltimore.
Pittsburg and few other cities and
also is in the export business. But his
answer shows clearly that he is an ad-
vocate of the general principle underly.
ing auction selling of box apples.
Attention has been given to this
question as to what bearing the auction
selling of box apples will have upon
Mr.. DiGiorgio's entrance into the
Northwestern box apple business. My
conclusions are drawn from the expert
ence of California. There we find two
great marketing concerns, the Cslifor-
MIA Fruit Growers Exchange and the
California Fruit Distributors. Neither
of these would be possible If there
were dependence upon the method of
distribution used by box apple shippers.
Neither the great cooperative concern
nor the great private stock company is
able to exist in the marketing of any
of the fruit products. such as are grown
on the Pacific coast. except by filling
place in the economic scheme of things
that make it worth its cost.

Sproat will Harvest 10000 Boxes

"The apple crop of the Hood River
valley is certainly fine," says c. H.
Sproat, who was here last week from
Portland to look after the harvest on
his East Side ranch now estimated at
10. 1000 boxes.
"lhe tonnage will probably be the
valleys greatest and the quality is the
best for years." continued MIR. Sproat.
During the fall of 1910, the last year
in which local fruit was exhibited in
carload quantities at the Spokane Ma
tional apple show, car of Spitezn-
burgs from the Sproat orchard cap
tured the gold medal in the sweep
stakes entries. MIR. Sproat says that
this carload of Spitz constituted the
finest block of Hood River applessever
hacked.

Cooperation Encouraged

The only large cooperative fruit mar
keting concerns which thrive. today,
are those that use the fruit auction
system of distribution In the large cit.
les.
Therefore, l believe that the selling
of box apples at auction will be to the
advantage of Joseph DiGiorgio as a
shipper of Northwestern fruits, but it
is my belief that it will also be to the
advantage of the cooperative associa-
tion. Both will be able to give wider
distribution at less cost to the growers
who affiliate with them.
There remains, when the use of the
fruit auction prevails, the need of sci.
entifc distribution and this is the
fundamental excuse for the large Or
ganization.

Small Shipper Helped


The taking over of the box apple
market In the large cities by the fruit
auctions will likewise make the small
shipper more capable. The small ship.
per will be able to place his fruit be-
fore the same group of buyers at the
same time and at the same place with
the big shipper. If he SO desires.
The small shipper will be sure that
he is not being Disseminated against
in the large markets of the country
and that he is receiving a correct ac-
count of sales.
Guy W. Conner. one of the indepen-
dent shippers at Medford, bears out
my conclusion by these words: with
out the auction there is nothing to the
fruit business. The auction shows
what fruits are worth daily and there
is no way in which money need be lost
If attention lie paid to market condi-
tions.
'"By watching the auction reports
sent out daily, the shipper knows ex-
actly when to allow his fruits to &c
onto the market and when not to. In
my case ] sell along the line, in Cana
da, the middle west and along the At
lantic coast when prices and conditions
warrant it.
''lf my advices show me that the
auction market is glutted sell else.
where, but if the auction is brisk my
cars 60 through and we realize the
very highest prices for our products.
One cannot sell at private sale and
equal the prices obtained at auction"
The fact that my brother is shipping
the late pears and the apples from our
orchard through Mr.. Connor indicates
that we have confidence in the small
shippers ability to serve when he uses

False RumOr

have heard said that Joseph DiGi.
orgio owns many of the fruit auction
houses Of the United States, but this
is not true. The dominant factors in
the Association which represent are
auction houses that are independent OF
Mr.. DiGiorgio and would resent Bit
terly any aggression on his part.
Mr.. DiGiorgio and bis friends own
one of the three fruit auction houses
of New York. the Baltimore Fruit Ex-
change and the United Fruit Auction
Company of Pittsburg.
H. Harris & Co., of Boston, Brown
& Seccomb and the New York Fruit
Auction Company of New York, the
Philadelphia Auction Company. the
Fruit Auction Company of New Or
leans, the Kansas City Fruit Auction
Company and most of the other auc.
tion houses of the country are owned
by those who have no connection with
Mr.. DiGiorgio.
| would like to say here, that the
American Fruit & Produce Auction
Association does not include the two
Chicago auction companies in its men,
bership. The auction situation in Chi
cago is not satisfactory and. personally,
| am very glad that they are not mem
bers of this Association which repre-
