Owing to the fact that Mr.. Arm
strong will have but two and one
half days in the county, it has been
necessary to schedule the stops so
as to give a comparatively short
time at each place and it will be
necessary that people interested in
these pruning demonstrations be
prompt in getting to the place on
time scheduled. We would especial
ly request that growers give at
tention to this suggestion.

8 RIVERS ASSN.
GIVES REPLY
TO PROPOSAL
Lampson Favors Cooperation
and Concentration of Load
ing and Shipping Suggests
Additions to Plan.

Additions to Plan.
Lee M. Lampson, manager OF
the 8 Rivers Growers association,
to whom the proposition for mar
keting the ground crops of aspara-
gus, Strawberries and early pota-
toes was made by ]. w. Hebert,
manager of the Yakima Fruit
Growers association, expressed
himself today as being in favor OF
cooperation and concentration OF
the loading and shipping of these
early crops. However, Mr.. Lamp
SON suggests some additions and
notifications to Mr.. Hebert's pro-
posed plan, which will be consider
ed by the 8 Rivers board and by
the members of the association
soon.
Mr.. Lampson's reply to Mr.. He
bert's letter follows:
"Your letter of the 30th at hand.
We are. calling a board meeting
next week and will take this mat
ter ND further at that time. In the
meantime, we are glad to advise
that we are anxious to have your
cooperation with us in the matter
of concentrating the loading and
selling of these early crops. AS
YOU know both the other shippers
in Kennewick loaded with us last
year and advised with us on the
sales we were making3 thereby
completely eliminating competitive
quotations.
Subject to the approval OF the
board and our members, we think
that your plan, with few addi-
tions which will strengthen it, could
be worked out.
"The additions which we wish
to suggest for the benefit of the
districts are that the joint selling
arrangements not only include the
crops which the Three Rivers con-
troll, but also cherries, peaches,
apricots, prunes, etc. We would
also add the suggestion for your
consideration, that all of the ship
pers of these early crops sit in to-
,gether or advise with each other
and handle the sales ourselves as a
district sales program rather than
bring in someone from distance
to handle our distributions, who is
not a part of the community and
not primarily interested in our
prices and problems. 1t certainly
would be difficult to find a sales
man, trained and experienced in
selling these highly perishable
crops who would not be represent
ing some brokerage firm. Even
if that could be done, he would not
lbe a part of the community nor
would he be as thoroly acquainted
with the commodities he was sell
ing as the shippers who are here
and are part of the community
and have had experience with these
particular commodities in this dis
trict over a period of years.
eve believe it will strengthen
the plan by including all of the
early crops and by concentrating
the quotations and sales in the
hands of the shippers who are a
part of the community. Since the
other shippers are already jointly
loading and selling with us, we
would be especially glad to have
you cooperate with us as that
would accomplish the desire sug-
gested in your letter of one humid
red per cent control.
"We will take this matter up
with the other shippers at once
and will appreciate your reply as
soon as you have considered our
additional suggestions"
