The Western Fruit Jobbers' Associa- 

 tion, in session at Des Moines last week, 

 believes that it should receive the sup- 

 port of nurserymen, as well as fruit 

 growers, in its fight against the private 

 car lines. The argument is that if the 

 high charges were removed the increased 

 prosperity of the grower would be felt 

 by the nursery interests.

 Association held its annual convention 

 at Lockport, January 3 and 4, Most 

 of the nurserymen of western New York

 Yager for three years. G. L. Welch will 

 remain in charge of the business. Mr. 

 Yager established the Plumfield Nur- 

 series in 1894 and has laid the founda- 

 tion for a large and successful enter- 

 prise. He retires from it in order to 

 give his other interests closer attention.
