A Message 

 for Fruit and 

 Vegetable 

 Growers 



We desire to get in touch with Fruit 

 and Vegetable Growers in all parts 

 of the country in order to establish 

 Fruit and Vegetable Drying Plants 

 for single firms that want to build 

 new and up-to-date drying plants for 

 themselves and with two or more 

 Growers that would favor the con- 

 struction of a drying plant on a 

 co-operative basis. 



There are many millions of dollars worth of Fruit and Vegetables 

 left to rotten on the ground and many more millions of dollars are 

 paid in freight rates, tin cans and boxes that can and must be saved. 

 We will invest some of our own capital, if you wish, as we are sure 

 that it is to our mutual benefit, if you write us today for particulars. 

 All information on this subject will be given cheerfully and free of 

 charge. If you are in business for making the best profits write now.
