APPLE-GROWERS GLAD
SCHEME FOR CO-OPERATIVE
EE1XING AGIJfCT POrCLAR.
Homer C. Atwell Goes to Seattle to
Consult leading Men of
Slate of Washington.
To perfect a co-operative selling agency
for the apple Industry of tho Xorthwest.
Is tho purpose of Homer C. Atwell, presi
dent of the Oregon State Horticultural
Society, who passed through Portland
last night on his way to Seattle, whither
he goes to consult with several apple-
grower, of the State of Washington who
have large Interests.
Xo convention will be called until after
the State Horticultural Convention of
Washington, to be held at Prosser In
January. This call I. In consequence of
a resolution passed at the Oregon state
meeting.
It is proposed to form a company of
sufficient capital to take over the entire
selling proposition of Oregon, Washing
ton and Idaho.
The $15,000,000 apple crop produced each
year In these three states will be .man
aged from one central point, as Is done
with pears of Rogue River Valloy, raisin,
of Sacramento Valley and orange, of
California.
Mr. Atwell stated he had received many
letter, from apple-grower., all enthu
siastic over the projoct.
lt I. absolutely certain." Mr. Atwell
said, "that the apple crop can only be
bandied In this manner with success.
The hundreds of apple-growers all going
Into the market at the same time, many
of them without experience In the selling
end, will surely glut the market and
create such a condition that soles will
be made at a loss. To -protect the In
dustry we must have united action. We
must control distribution, and If we do.
the Industry will prosper a. no other in
dustry on the Coast."
