Hy meet ing the demand by proper distribution mnl hy stimulating n further demand, we will bo able to dispose easily uf what we produce. "Another thing we uoed to do is to produce iu this northwest ii period fruit, us nearly as possible. It is essential to counteract the growing of fruit in the oast.
