MORE TROUBLE IN
Most Turbulent Scenes Since

turbulent scene that has yet occurred

paid those outside the organization
that it is now proposed to incorporate
the association as a joint stock com
pany with a capital stock of $1500.

and at an enthusiastic meeting held
Saturday a committee of four was ap-
nnintpd to solicit. SUbSCriDtionS Of
stock and look after the preliminaries
of organization, subscriptions are
rapidly being received and there is no
doubt of the success of the organiza
tion. it is nRtimated that lack of co-op
eration resulted in a loss of at least
$30,000 to the farmers and fruit rais
ers of the Grande Ronde last season,
and as the estimated output of the
vsillev this vear is 50.000 boxes of
fruit in addition to other produce it
can easily be seen that but a small
saving will be necessary on each box
to bring an aggregate gam up to diobi
respectable figures.
