APPLE GROWERS GET PAID

The financial department of the
Northwestern Fruit Exchange made
returns today to the amount Of $685.
851.38 to local shipping organizations
affiliated with it, this being the one
days returns only, and representing
70 cars of apples. This figure repre-
sents the actual total net amount re-
mitted to the local organizations after
deducting charges of every nature.
It figures $1,213.31 per car and it is
pointed out that these 70 cars include
apples from the lowest to the highest
grade and of practically all varieties
and sizes, and figures therefore repre-
senting a very fair average.
1t is also noted that very prompt
returns were made on these cars from
the date of shipment to date of cash
remittance to organization averaging
close to 80 days the basis of sale being
f. o. b. The remarkable "day's WORK"
of the Exchange is regarded here as
highly indicative of the excellent con-
dition of the apple market season.
