only bought gas and other supplies,
but many Of them were also looking

| He read a number Of letters and said
| the organization had received more
than 1000 such letters in the past
year.
DR.. Bomberger reminded the audi
\ ence that he did not come here as
cure-all. He had been studying the
problem Of marketing for % years,
he said, and he found that some
I phases were still obscure and he was
merely endeavoring to find trail out
! Of the wilderness. Much has been
\ said in condemnation Of the middle
man, but if it was not for the middle
man, the speaker said, most people
would starve to death and about the
only one who would not would be the
farmer.
There was a time, the speaker said,
when most produce raised in a state
was sold within its borders, but this
has changed. California and various
other states are now shipping canta-
lOupes and getting better prices than
some Of the local growers. California
is also sending apples to the east in
! vast quantities. Recently Missouri
| shipped carload Of berries to Bos-
ton and received five cents a quart
more than the highest price secured
for the best berries produced on this
peninsula. Even eggs are shipped
from California and bring higher
prices than those shipped from the
Eastern Shore.
The success of the Western states
in selling products, he believed, was
due to standardization. This applied
to grading and handling. Co-opera-
tive associations have also done much
to aid these states and he believed
that before long there would be a CO.
operative organization operating in
Del-Mar-Va. One cooperative asso-
citation in California shipped 10000
cars Of farm produce last year and it
all bore the same brand and was Of
standard quality. The produce was
sold Oh per cent commission while
usually the charge is per cent.
Attention was given Delaware ap-
pies and it was declared by the speak
Ell that when the first crop of apples
come On, the growers rush To ship
them and thus 60 into competition
with each other and with other grow
ers. Delaware apples are as good as
any, he said, and if standardized
should bring as good prices as others.
| Attention was also given to the mat
ter Of sweet potatoes and the speaker
said that great loss had been suffered
on the peninsula because sweet potato
houses were not built according to
proper specifications.
pr. q. Layton Grier, the new pres
ident of the association, asked Dr..
Bomberger why IT Wa that California
nuts brought higher prices than those
raised on the peninsula and the doctor
described how the California nuts
We're washed, graded and shipped in

Liquidation of the sugar and rubber
shares was influenced by price cuts on
refined sugar and automobile tires.
Trading was fairly heavy in volume,
but again failed to reach the 100000

The early rise was influenced, in
part by reduction in the call money
