GROWER GRIEVANCES
EXPLAINED AWAY

The grievances of Upper Valley and

came here Monday to confer with board
of directors and officials of the Apple
Growers Association and lay before
them their complaints, disappeared af-
ter lengthy session at which the sales
agency officials explained the seasons
strawberry deal to the visiting delega-
tions. The conference lasted through
out the morning until the middle of the
afternoon without a recess for lunch.
The growers claimed in instances that
they had received during the first of
July but 60 cents per crate for their
fruit, sum 40 cents less than the cost
of production and harvest. They main
tained that the sales organization
should have warned them against pick
ing the fruit, when clear loss might
have been expected.
twas explained by the sales officials
that the losses were incurred during
the week of the Fourth, the Tuesday
following Sunday. For four days, it
was declared the fruit trade was at a
standstill, and berries remaining over
that time in cars moulded because of
the prevailing rains of the valley. w.
M. Dickerson, a sales representative of
the Association, told the growers that
the fruit might have been total loss
but forl the action on the part of the
Association repacking the berries. The
average sales of the Association dur
ing the past season have been highly
satisfactory.

the best for US.
