In later years, as my peach orchards 

 have grown larger and as I have estab- 

 lished others in Georgia that cover some 

 few thousand acres, I have gone to the 

 commission men in nearly all the large 

 cities and told them I wanted them to 

 make a trip to Georgia, and I looked 

 after them while they were there. They 

 came down and spent a day in getting 

 acquainted with Hale's farm, and Hale's 

 trees, and Hale 's method of packing and 

 sorting the fruit and everything, and 

 they went home so full of it that they 

 could sell fruit at higher prices for me 

 and make a greater commission for 

 themselves, and it was a profitable thing 

 all around. That closer acquaintance 

 which I have insisted upon for a number 

 of years in my business has been profit- 

 able to me and profitable to the men 

 who have handled my goods. 



Label Your Stock. 



My nursery business has been only 

 the outgrowth of the fruit business. I 

 believe I can say it without question 

 that I was the first man to put fruit on 

 the market and in the hands and the 

 homes of the consumers so they knew 

 whose fruit it was. If it was poor they 

 would not buy any more, and if it was 

 good they bought more of it. I not only 

 tried to make it so good that they would 

 want more of it, but I determined that 

 they should pay a price greater than 

 the price they paid for the same goods 

 not so well put up. 



I have a friend, a merchant, who 

 failed in business and who took to farm- 

 ing, and one of his ideas was to do 

 things a little better than anybody else, 

 and then let the people know he was do- 

 ing it. He used to pack his berries

A few years ago he had a magnificent 

 crop of potatoes, and he went down to 

 Boston, but the best he could do was 50 

 cents a bushel. Then he went to the 

 nearby market, but found he could do no 

 better. So he went down to Boston again 

 and he talked the matter over with the 

 fancy dealers and he said to them, ' ' 1

wonder if these people living here 

 wouldn 't buy potatoes all nice and clean, 

 if I washed them and put them up in 

 bags, ' ' and the dealer gave him an 

 order for a few. Now, all old farmers 

 know that if you wash potatoes you will 

 spoil them; they won't keep. Well, he 

 didn 't want to keep them, he wanted to 

 sell them ; and he bought 400 new sacks 

 at 4 cents apiece and he shipped them 

 out home and took a wagon-load of pota- 

 toes and hauled them down to the creek 

 and dumped them in and got the boys to 

 peel off their clothes and jump in and 

 wash those potatoes there. Then he had
