' '.i; MARHETS LOCAL AND STATE HOOD RIVER FRUIT FIRST SEASON'S FIRST SHIPMENT OF FRUIT UNDER NEW PLAN. Portland Receives First Big Consign . aMKt From Head Mirer. Portland. Ore., Aug. 19, Special) Hood River win have the bailor of being practically the first section of the country to send forward a brand of apples that win be advertised -under the projected campaign. . The formation of the Hood River Fruit Growers' exchange by some of the leadig producers of the world-famous section, will start the ball a roll ing in the advertising campaign, which has for its duel object the se curing of a better market for" produc ers and the obtaining of better fruit by consumers. The Hood River Fruit Growers' ex change, which will be watched over by A. I. Mason, one of the best known apple men of the Pacific Northwest, has allied itself with the Northwest ern Fruit exchange of this city and will market its output of Spitzenberg and Yellow Newton apples under the latter's brand. s While the organization of the Hood River Fruit Growers' exchange is as yet composed of few growers because it was started after most of the fruit had been contracted to other parties, the promoters say that many have al ready signified their intention of ship ping under its auspices next season. The organization gives -the North western Fruit exchange of this city its first real foothold fn the most fam ous apple growing section of the world While it has marketed apples for oth er oranizations there at times when the latter could not find an outlet for their own product, still it has nevei before been actually presented in the district "We mean to pay special attentin to Hood River fruit hereafter," says W. F. Gwin, selling authority of the Northwestern Fruit exchange. 1 "We were asked by some of the leading growers of the district to market their fruit this season and have Txepted. AH of the fruit will be raded by. a special machine and will be packed in a central warehouse." ' - Notice Special Stockholders' Meeting.
