SIXTEENTH ANNUAL MEETING. !»3 



Wo believe in "A nierrv life and a short one" i'or the peach 

 tree. IJetter that a tree should "wear out than rust out." 



We believe that quality and not bulk measures the fitness 

 of a peach to eat, and therefore the value of a variety. 



We believe in good fruit, good grading, and good honest 

 packages. There is only a change of one letter between 

 cheap and client. 



We l)elieve in achertising our wares, for — 

 "He who whispers down the well, 

 About the goods he has to sell. 

 Does not reap the shining, golden dollars. 

 Like he who climbs a "tree and hollers." 

 W'e believe in smaller orchards and better care. Large 

 orcharding is not always the best orcharding, and small or- 

 charding is often the largest. 



Lastlv, we believe in every man proving all things for 

 himself, and in his holding fast to that which he finds good. 



Several questions were asked and answered and with this 

 discussion the evening session was brought to a close at 10.45, 

 all agreeing that it had been a most enjoyable and profitable 

 meetinp;.
