The Ashdown Fruit Growers Association, which through the Ozark people, with whom they have a membership, are very successfully marketing their berries, state that they are get ting inquiries about the peach crop here. Buyers agree to get in the market for the crop Of peaches if handled systemati- cally and packed under shed where they can see it done. While the local association is now composed of berry growers it can also take peach growers into the organization. They urge that the peach growers join them, or form an organiza- tion of their own now. They are successfully marketing the berries because they began in time, bought crates in advance and made all plans. Without organization the peach grow CTS can not succeed. Car ship ments of peaches could be made from this place every year. Only organization and system is lacking.
