 the pa.st hopes anil (.'(forts of the grow- 

 ers for an ideal marketing s>steni bid 

 fair to be successfully coiisuiniiiateil: 

 all the repeated suggestions and advices 

 (if the business men, bankers, the press 

 and others vitally interested in the wel- 

 fare of the fruit industry to "get to- 

 gether" have been heeded. Briefly, this 

 sums up the effect of the formation of 

 the Fruit (Irowers' Agency at Sjiokane 

 last Fri(hn , after more than a xear's 



careful and incessant thought on the 

 part of the growers, the selling 

 agencies, and particularly the effective 

 investigations and work of the I'nited

 place the fruit business upon a firm, 

 sound basis was the object. 



The movement does not mean a new 

 selling organization. It does not mean 

 a new shipjiing organization; docs not 

 contemplate additional expense to the 

 grower. The iM'uit Growers' Agency, 

 as organized, is the gef-logether instru-

 agencies foi- the common purpose of 



mutual protection, and through its 

 Si)okane head(|uarters will be handled 

 the details so essential, though inci- 

 dental, to the successful handling and 

 marketing of the crops. The .\gency. 

 as an organization, will |)ei'form no act 

 whatsoever of selling. It will displace 

 no existing shiiiping organization. The 

 present selling agencies will continue 

 to act indei)en'leiill.\ in their dealings 

 with the markets. Hut through the 

 nuitual organization thus formed by the 

 growers and shippers, the centering of 

 the best thoughts and nunds in the 

 industry, will be devoted to the adop- 

 iton and carrying out of advanced 

 practices in marketing, and such mat- 

 ters as the extension of trade develop-
