tribution made. However, we have
thoroughly demonstrated to the
satisfaction of our members that the

will not be as much as the grower in

ing plants had been closed, and the
largest pant of our expense OF opera
tion had been paid, it cost 40 cents
and l mill per 100 pounds for actual
operation expenses. And this opera
ton expense includes ell receiving
tlants management, including common
labor, salaries OF graders and general
office expense including salaries, but
does not include the cost to the farm
er in payment for the real properties
which are being used for receiving
plants. This will be about l cent
