 Chamber of Commerce Building, No- 

 vember 15, 16 and 17. The attendance 

 was nol as large as in previous years 

 when the meetings were held in the 

 large fruit-growing districts, but the 

 program was very interesting and in- 

 structive. .T, Howard Wright of North 

 Yakima was elected president; ,T. F. 

 Segruc, Cashmere, vice-president; F. E. 

 Williams, Spokane, second vice-presi- 

 dent; .1. A. Harader, North Yakima, sec-

 The next annual meeting will be held 

 at North Yakima. The last time the 

 meeting was held in North Yakima the 

 attendance was between 700 and 800, 

 so it is to be expected that next year 

 the meeting will have an immense 



attendance.

 grading machine, which will be placed

 cability and simi)licity of his own

The Washington Horticultural Soci- 

 ety are advocating a plan for life mem- 

 bershii) with a view to creating a fund, 

 the interest on which will be a big help 

 in financing the annual meetings. It is 

 planned that the life niembcrshin shall 

 cost fifteen dollars. This plan is cer- 

 tainly a move in the right direction, it 

 having been tried out bv the Oregon 

 State Horticultural Society, proving 

 very successful, as the Oregon sncietv 

 already has a large list of life members.

One exhibit commanding an immense 

 amount of attention was that made by 

 Yakima Valley, under the direction of 

 Mr, DeVise, which consisted of films 

 showing the various phases of the 

 apple industry. One particular feature 

 which commanded a great deal of at- 

 tention and interested the public was 

 the production of a big "Y" of apples. 

 Mr. DeVise is one of the prominent men 

 of Yakima associated with the industry, 

 never failing to be present when any- 

 thing is being done for the improve- 

 ment or betterment of the industry. 

 Mr. DeVise is very popular among the 

 fruitgrowers, with a ver\- extensive ac- 

 quaintance, his efforts being voluntary 

 and most of them without reimburse- 

 ment, but they are much appreciated, 

 as he has worked earnestly in his en- 

 deavor to help the fruitgrower better 

 his condition. 



The Bean .Spray Puni]) Co. made a 

 jiractical exhibit of one of their well- 

 known ))ower sprayers which is so 

 jjopular in the Northwest, practical 

 demonstrations being given by the man 

 in charge.
