Dear Mr.. Scholtz: We have made
our plans to leave Spokane Saturday,
March 25, and reach Idaho in time for
series Of meetings with the fruit
owers in Idaho, on the following
Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.
Our other engagements require that
e do this work within the three days.
fand we have an idea that, if it meets
with your approval. we can hold three
meetings on Monday, and the same
number on Tuesday, by dividing our
forces and each one Of our party (Ba5-
sett. Moomaw and Kerr holding an
Independent meeting.
This arrangement may not meet
your best judgment. and. Of course, we
want to leave the dates and places to
you to decide. What we do want TO
ask is that all arrangements be made
SO that we can move from place to
place with the least trouble, taking
into consideration the train schedules,
etc.
viii you please take this matter up
at once and arrange for the meetings,
80 as to get out the largest possible
humber of growers? And when you
have the schedule made up, please let
pe know at Davenport hotel, Spokane,

and Friday, March 20 and "a, at which
time the Fruit Growers Agency, incor-
porated, will be completed, officers
elected, rules and bylaws adopted,
etc, and we want to urge that you be
present. We hope that your most inn
portant districts will be represented at
this Spokane meeting. by sending dele
gates 1t might be well for them to
take out a passive membership, under
a 50 membership fee, should they think
1t wise.
Our work has been progressing N
good shape and we feel that we are
going to leave matters in good shape
when we return to Washington. We
plan to keep close watch of the agency,
acting at ali times in an advisory ca
pacity, and expect to have one or more
men in the held to assist during the
busy season.
1--WE wish to thank you for your
searty support of all Of our efforts. and
assure you that it will be a great
pleasure to continue this cooperation
with your important office.
