The union has developed its apple markets and is proud of its record last year, as it compares favorable with prices re ceived, by old established and heav ily advertised communities. We have difficulty, however, to overcome in the apple "business, and that is to get the apples picked and 'ship ped on time. Without a'.iy cold stor age here and under ordinary temper atures, our apples deteriorate rapid ly after packing. - if shipped ffjuth. which, last year, was our best mar ket, and although we tried hard to get our growers to get theuu in earlier, for various reasons, the picking and delivering was delayed to the extent that two or three of our cars arrived in slightly damaged con dition, making it necessary for us to make allowances, which brought dowa the returns somewhat. "In order to make it fair and equit able we were obliged to pool the fruit of the growers whose picking was delayed by themselves. 3o as not to penalize the grower who got Ais fruit in on time, and whose fruit ar rived in good condition. The state ment, which will be read following these preliminary :marks will be a statement of the condition of the un- Ioj. and outside of , a few minor items the-growers are all paid off with the .exception of the interest which we are figuring on paying prune growers on their accounts. "We have prepared claims against the government for interest, due to the delay Ij giving us shipping in structions, of extra storage, and charges caused bv the delay and up to the present time have collected about $2000 out of the $6000, total amount of claims, leaving still about $4000 to be paid. That this, amount or practically all of it will be al lowed we have been advised by an officer connected with the United States Quartermaster depa:tment. We had anticipated pav'ng our mem bers 8 per cent on their accounts, but the government will net stand rfor more than fi per cent, so it -will be necessary for us io reduce the r mount of interest on delayed pay ments to 6 per cent. i "We are haying difficulty at the p-sent time in getting iotcrest from October 1. as. the government states that we would not have made settle- men before December 1 under any cirenmstantea anyway. "It is the union" intention to turn ever all the Interest collected oa these claims to the growers and on whatever basis we receive interest we will make return to the grower. In rlosiug we wish to thank the growers very much for their support to the board of directors and the management, during the past year. and their untiring patience and co operation du:iag the trying condi tions under which we worked. We also take this, opportunity to wis'u you another pronerous year." rtoose Gleaning Time 1 Is Here ALL GOODS.
