PROGRESS IN FRUIT MARKETING 



iCuNlinutJ /turn fiJgt 2(J) 



Willie the car is traveling, negotiations 

 arc made for selling the fruit on ar- 

 rival. Often the tar never reaches its 

 original destination but is sent, instead, 

 to the highest bidder. I his method 

 speeds delivery to the purchaser and as 

 sures growers of the highest possible 

 return. 



Growers who sell their fruit to buyers 

 at their orchards get the best prices when 

 they call the Exchange office for prices. 

 In order to get top prices for members. 

 Harry Day, manager, and Karl MoWe, 

 sales manager, constantly check prices 

 and demands with the National agents 

 on the central markets. 



Growers who take advantage of the Il- 

 linois F'ruit Growers Exchange sales ser- 

 vice also use the Exchange's other ser- 

 vices. They can buy spray materials, 

 baskets, fertilizers and other necessities 

 from the Fruit Exchange Supply C'om 

 pany. Growers report that supplies from 

 this source are always ot good cjuality 

 and the price is reasonable. Then, too, 

 growers depend on the Supply (Company 

 to have the right commodities on hand 

 when they need them. 



The Exchange conducts a field service 

 under the supervision of Logan N. Colp. 

 Growers have learned to depend on this 

 service for aid in solving the myriads ol 

 technical problems which arc constantly 

 arising. 



Ihe educational program ot the Ex- 

 change is largely responsible for the en- 

 viable record for quality fruit now being 

 enjoyed by ILLINI brand produce on 

 the central markets. 



Thus through organization growers 

 have brought order in large measure to 

 fruit and vegetable marketing in Illinois
