them? What investigation of markets
is being made? Who is going to col
lect the data on Northwest consump-
ton, prices etc. covering period OF
years-data necessary to a, reason
able conclusion that Kennewick sweet
potatoes can be marketed at a prof.
it? Unless this information is avail
able the experiment is only half an
experiment; it may be worse than
no experiment, with money, time and
energy wasted.
This district does need greater de-
versity of crops; does need other
crops to go along with asparagus,
strawberries and those crops, the
success of which has been established
both as to production and markets.
But the production of no new crop
should be undertaken until reason
ably adequate preparation for its
marketing has been made. Adequate
preparation means not only assured
consumption but controlled distribu-
tion..
People don't pay real money for
raincoats if they can keep dry with
out them.

JUST SENSE

OECRETARY of Interior Work has
~ submitted to congress drafted
bill which provides that before any
new construction can be undertaken
ON a reclamation project their de-
tailed reports must be obtained. The
interior department is to secure
report on the engineering feasibility,
the secretary of agriculture, on eli
mate, soil etc. and the secretary OF
commerce on transportation facili-
ties and other economic factors.
Provisions of this bill, are just plain
common sense which should always
have been applied to the selection of
reclamation projects and legislative
enactment should not be necessary
to make it d policy of the reclamation
service. 1t is a fact, however, that
common sense often times stops
where politics begin.
If the bill will insure that each
project is considered strictly upon its
merits and will prohibit the political
interferences of senators and repre-
sentatives, it should be passed.

CPEAKING of sweet potatoes, here
~ is something to think about.
The u. S. Bureau of Agriculture
Economics in its latest bulletin says:
Sweet potato growers plan an ac-
reage, which with average yields,
would mean a larger crop than the
country has ever consumed" The pro-
posed expansion is largely in the boil
weavil area of the cotton belt. This
looks like we all have got to eat

California Fruit Growers Elk
change. who control rs percent of the
citrus crop of California, use what
thew call a Dealers Service depart
ment. This department is made up
of what may be termed statesmen who
are EMPLOYEES of the Exchange. 1t
is the business of this department
TO educate the retailers up to the
fact that quick sales at smaller prof
its are preferable to long time sales
with a large profit. This is accom-
nlished through personal contact and
actual demonstration in the retail
stores and leads up to carload pur-
chases instead Of less than carload
business. When the former job lot
buyer orders carload of fruit, the
Exchange does not leave the dealer
flat with a carload of fruit on his
hands, but still continues his educa-
tional craftsmanship work to the end
that they may make true saying OF
"once carload buyer, always car
load buyer" During the past ten
wears orange consumption has. in
creased 12O percent. Where formerly
the Exchange had $50 carload mar
kets, today they have $50 with a
sales expense of three and one-third
percent.
What would an additional $50 car
load market mean to the Apple
Growers of the Northwest?
: We have heard California grape
growers were hard hit in 1923. Let
us see how bad they were hurt. To-
tai grape crops of California in 1928
was So, 1000 cars, of which 10000 were
wine grapes. Grape production in this
state increased Is percent as COM
pared to 1922. Mildew was prevalent.
Of the 10000 cars of wine grapes,
10000 carloads, owing to the avar-
ice of some of the growers to get the
early market irrespective of the ma
turity of the grapes, were shipped
in an unsaleable condition and were
rejected by eastern buyers. These
cars necessarily WCiC 0dhiPSu Oh SAAS
auction markets with disastrous eff
feet. Above conditions go far towards
making a nasty marketing condition.
Grapes can be raised in California
at a profit on a sales price Of from
$500 to $4,000 per ton. Mr.. Moses
of the Northwestern Apple organ
ization committee of five, has pub
licly stated the grape growers of Cal
ifornia received $4,000 a ton for their
grapes. In view of marketing condi-
lions, results obtained by the Califor-
nit Fruit Exchange deserves whole
lot more of commentator than con-
domination.
Fruit competing with apples is or
ganized on a strong competitive bas-
is. Do you not think it is incumbent
on the apple growers to organize just
as strongly?
