1t is desired, however, that the

Method Devised For Northwestern
Growers May Furnish Suggestions
For Similar Perishable Crops

A plan for the more efficient mar
keting OF fruit crops in the North
west has been worked out by the Of
fee OF Markets and Rural OrganiLa-
tion which, 1t Is believed. may offer
suggestions for the solution of some
what similar problems with other
perishable crops in other sections of
the country. This marketing plan is
based upon a uniform contract, which
must be made part Of selling con
tracts between the growers and their
resident agents. The agents In turn
are required to cooperate in carrying
on certain specific activities which
are considered as essential to the
prosperity of the fruit industry in the
four States of Oregon, Washington,
Idaho, and Montana Despite the fact
that the Pacific Northwest has been
regarded as the home OF cooperation
In the apple business, the need for
improved marketing facilities has be-
come apparent in recent years. In
ether sections Of the country where
the principles Of cooperation have not
been as extensively developed this
need Is even more actutely felt. The
actual results of the plan will there
fore be watched with much interest
and should throw light upon the prob.
lem OF the efficient distribution of
perishable crops throughout the coun'
try.
In the past. Il Is stated, at least rs
or so per cent OF the apple growers
IN the four States named have signed
,nntracts with resident selling agen-
cies. The new plan requires That
these contracts will contain certain
uniform provisions which make 1t
possible for the agents to cooperate
legally and effectively in carrying on
the activities which the growers have
demanded from them for some time.
To enable them to do so fruit grow
ers' agency has been formed. To be-
come a member OF this organization
selling agency must handle an av.
crage of not less than 100 cars OF
fruit or produce annually. This lin.

that an agency handling less than
this can not conduct an efficient sell
