SALEf, Nov. 1. Prune growers
from all sections of western Oregon
ruthered hero today and discussed
at length ihe present slliiniioii In
Oregon as It nficeta the orchard In
terests. Although no definite action had
been taken by the conference to
night, II was said that much discus
sion centered about the stabilizing of
Ihe prune market. Recent price re
ductions announced by lbe California
Packing corporation under the new
so-called ' co-operative management
has caused Oregon growers lo worry.
Whether the Oregon growers will
meet the prices announced by the
California corroratlim has not yet
been determined.
Growers here loday agreed that
the price curling which has been go
ing on Is unnecessary, particularly
on the larger sizes of prunes, and
Ih.-il a good market could be had
wilh a ready demand at fair prices
If tbe market were stabilized and
price cutting were eliminated.
it was reported at ihe meeting
Hint the California Parking corpora
tion N not having smooth sailing
with Its ho-called ro-operalive con
tracts that were entered Into.
Reports Indicated that Clarke
county, Washington, proved the best
field for the workers with co-operative
contracts, there being a number
of growers In that county w-ho did
not wish to get Into the co-operatives
and who were not altogether satlsfli-l
wilh the private packers, and who
were willing to gel In on a combina
tion of both - a co-operative contract
wilh a private packer.
The growers probably will contin
