You will see the reason and be

The Bits for Breakfast man has
not the figures: but the facts arc
something like this:
The Oregon Growers' Co-operative
association organised last year with
91.000.000 capital stock: half com
mon, half preferred. The common
was taken by the fruit growers who
igned up their acreage furnishing
money to start ousiness; the pre
ferred was also taken largely by
them, furnishing money to buy the
local plants some 17 of them, in
the Willamette valley and southern
Oregon. Some common and some
preferred are yet unsold; but 'he
bulk of it taken by the growers.
So far. so good. Then the associa
tion needed $500,000 more cash, to
buy boxes and labels and wrapping
oaper and other supplies for tbe com
ing crop. Did the blc Portland
banks furnish the half million? Not
they. The country banks furnished
ill of the half million the banks
backed the growers.
Now.. Isn't that some record
something to make a common clod
hopper nroud?
Here are the fruit growers of
western Oregon who have in a single
rear organized themselves into a
great packing and shipping and sell
ing concern; and put up a mlllioa
and a hair dollars to get ready for
their work. Now, watch the smoke
of those fruit crnwenr. They ate
