No ono benefits from such a practice except the uaowor in Walla Walla, Hood River and more distant districts. Money that wc spend for outside fruits seldom if ever returns. , H goes to build up Walla Walla, Yakima and Portland serves to destroy tho buying power of our own community and de crease our money turnover. And no finer fruit is grown unywhere in tho world than is produced in this valley. , The fact that our local market is thus unprotected is not due to indifference but to a lack of knowledge and study. I Dealers who have injured tho community's prosperity by buy-i ing outsido products to sell in competition with those raised ' , here have not followed that policy maliciously. They havei simply followed tho theory that it was good business to buy j .where the price was the lowest. The housewife has done' likewise both unconscious in most instances of direct in-1 jury to an important home industry. We have ull been guilty! of too restricted horizons. i Remedy is to be found in more intelligent buying during the coining season a conscientious effort to keep the local market availablo exclusively for local growers as long as they have competitive crops to offer. The thoughtful dealer will specify in his advertising that he offers Grando Rondo val-l ley products exclusively when possible und the thoughtful, loyal housewife will buy those products exclusively under the same conditions. As wo pointed out before, it is a minor thing for tho individual to do, but the aggregato of little things can make a big accomplishment in the development ' of the ui (irande territory.
