; Bad spots in our highways, due to frost and bad drainage
in the spring season, are necessary in macadam roads in this
climate. We hope that it will not be many years until a
sufficiently heavy base has been built to permit paving. A
smoother, more permanent road is one of the necessities of
the future. . ' ' ' . '

are, for part of the Benson, in direct competition with Grande
Hondo valley berries and serve to decrease tho demand. lo
cally and to beat down tho price for our own product.
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.
