which is approximately 75% of the entire 

 crop. We expect to have 95% of the entire 

 acreage of the Niagara Peninsula under 

 contract to this company by July 1, which 

 will be approximately 800 growers control- 

 ling 4,500 acres of grapes. 



"Up to the present time our standing 

 and work is much ahead of any previous 

 year. We are in a position to handle their 

 entire crop to an advantage. We have 430 

 shareholders who have subscribed ap- 

 proximately $43,000 of stock, 10% of which 

 is paid up at the time the stock is subscrib- 

 ed, the balance on call. 



"We work in conjunction with Co-opera- 

 tive Grape Associations in Michigan, New 

 York Pennsylvania and Ohio on a great 

 many matters pertaining to the welfare of 

 the grape growers, and have founi that we 

 have here a much stronger co-operative 

 grape company than anything we have yet 

 seen in the United States, excepting Cali- 

 fornia. 



"Another change in our policy this year Is 

 that we are selling grapes in car-lots direct 

 on Canadian markets this season, some- 

 thing we have never done before. Last year 

 our Canadian business was handled through 

 the Niagara Peninsula Growers, Ltd., while 

 this year they handle L.C.L. shipments and 

 we also supply any straight carloads they 

 require. Our arrangements with the United 

 States are the same as last year. We oper- 

 ate through the American Fruit Growers, 

 Inc., Pittsburg."
