Fruit Growers' Meeting.
held at grant's pass, mat 30, 1885.
President B. F. Miller in the chair.
The constitution and Sy-laws were
read. Eighteen gentlemen became
members of the association. Reading
of the minutes was omitted in order to
save time. C. W. Clark spoke on the
question of hop growing, and said that
he had been informed by dealers, to
whom samples of hops had been sent
from the vicinity of Wbsdville, that
they were superior to any grown on
coast. Mr. Clark requested the as
sociation to include hop growing as
well as fruit growing. On motion it
was ordered the association take op
the hop question at the next regular
meeting. Hon. H. B. Miller made a
short but very enthusiastic speech; ho
considered fruit growing was destined
to be the leading industry of Southern
Oregon. He said some of the 1'ort
land people think we have no good
fruit, because shippers have been so
careless in assorting and packing their
fruit for market, that a large portion
of it shipped to Portland is unfit for
market when it arrives; thus throwing
discredit on fruit growers and depeci
ating the market value of our fruit.
There is work to do; I will do all in
my power for the association. A. H.
Carson made a fluent speech, among
other remarks he raid, I know we
have the best of fruit lands. Lands
that will produce forest trees will pro
duce fruit trees. While we can grow
mnny varieties of fruit almost to per
fection, iu apples we lead the world.
Our high lands are the best for fruit,
it is not necessary to irrigate; trees, if
properly cultivated dc well without
irrigation, and the quality of the fruit
is better from nnirrigated trees. Col.
J. S. Gage liked this climate better
than the climate north or south of this
place. He said he had received infor
mation, which led him to bejieve the
railroad would soon be finished. On
motion the president was instructed to
appoint some one to speak or write ou
some particular kind of fruit at every
meeting. J. H Stine, editor of the
Grant's Pass "Courier," expressed his
willingness to do what he could for the
fruit growers, and invited members to
send communications to him in refer
ence to the cultivation of the different
fruits and he would be only too happy
to publish them. C. W. Clarke sug
gested that the members of the aasocia
tion were becoming quite numerous,
and if every one would give his know!
edge and experience, the rnsulf would
be a vast fund of useful knowledge,
BUrn as would surprise many of us.
He feared that some ef our members
were over modest, that while they
might possess knowledge they did not
deeai of much importance it probably
would be the very thing that some one
else was looking for. On motion the
meeting adjourned to meet at Jackson
jville Saturday, June 27th, 1S85.
