merican Foods was the first
firm in the eastern part of the
nation to pre-cool berries prior
to shipment but have proved
beyond doubt that it puts "a
better quality berry on the
distant markets. This year, the
Tabor City and Burgaw pre-
cooling facilities have been
doubled in size.
American Foods had obsta-
Giles To overcome with Tabor
City and Burgaw growers and
there was concern as TO whe-
Their farmers would adapt 10
the changing marketing sys-
tenn.
For one thing, the new ber-
ry organization was not an
auction system. Growers sim
ply brought their berries to
market, unloaded them quick
ly, got a slip of paper show
ing what they had brought,
checked out more supplies,
and headed back to the berry
fields. Payday came just once
a week, each Friday, and to
growers accustomed TO taking
cash back alter every load,
this was something To worry
about.
And then there was the new
package and method of pack
aging. No longer were berries
to be brought to market in "a
pint crates but in ~ pint
flats. And there could be no
top dressing like berry grow
erS had been taught by various
buyers down through the years
SO that the fine. large berries
were on top and the rest of
the cup filled with anything
that happened to be picked.
American Foods insisted that
the entire package be consist
ent with good quality berries
from top To bottom.
They offered growers some
advantages never enjoyed be-
fore, too. The loading dock
and the pre-cooler was avail
able To handle the berries for
farmers not only in the morn
ing but also until late in the
evening, thus greatly facilitat-
ing the picking and allowing
growers to take full advant-
age of home labor.

turned to the Seat Pleasant

Foirfox Pipeline Row
Get Oct. 17Heorinq

RICHMOND. Oct. / (AP).-
The State Corporation Com
mission, which has been asked
to block a projected $3.50 mil
lion oil pipeline between Texas
and New York, has scheduled
a hearing on the matter for
October II.
Several irate Fairfax County
residents have asked the COM
mission for an injunction to
keep the pipeline people off
their property. These land
owners have turned down bids
for rights-of-way and have OPP
posed condemnation proceed
ings on the grounds that the
Colonial Pipeline Co. lacks
right Of eminent domain under
Virginia law.
The landowners petition,
filed yesterday, argues the COM
pany lis not a public utility
or a common carrier within
the meaning of the Code Of
Virginia"
John w. RELY, Richmond
counsel for the pipeline firm,
said a motion to dismiss the
complaint would be filed with
the commission within the next
few days.
On the other hand. Northern
Virginia attorneys said a num-
Der of additional property own
ers planned to file petitions

attacking Colonial's power Of
eminent domain.
The pipeline project, which
has been described as the Ma
tons largest privately fl
nanced construction job Of its
kind, was started in March
1862 and was scheduled for
completion this fall.
Six months ago, the firm
tried to buy easements from r.
T. Fleming, Thomas w. Knapp
and their wives and Mary v.
White, all of Fairfax, so the
line could be trenched through
their property.
When the landowners said
NO" the firm brought a con-
demnation suit last month in
Fairfax County. The defend
ants then moved to dismiss the
suit on the grounds that no
public convenience nor neces-
sity was involved and that the
sec was the court of proper
jurisdiction.
