with a lot of No. 2 Bartletl pears, not only from the Sacramento River, but 

 from other points as well, and almost all of this No. 2 fruit is wormy, and 

 consequently checks the movement of green fruit that would otherwise sell 

 at a satisfactory price. 



"I know that our firm as well as other dealers in this market would be glad 

 if this No. 2 or wormy stock could be condemned, because as matters now 

 stand it permits growers who make a practice of not spraying their orchards 

 to have an outlet for at least a fair market for their fruit, while the grower 

 who pays attention to spraying, etc., has one of the best markets in the United 

 States absolutely shut off from him. 



"We claim that if the San Francisco market would not be made the dumping 

 ground for every bit of No. 2 fruit that is raised in this end of the state it 

 would prove to the grower who takes care of his orchard and who tries to put 

 No. 1 fruit on the market that San Francisco would be one of the best markets 

 for him that could be found anywhere in the United States."
