Brooks of the pool announced today, the pool showing return of 1 1 cents a pound to the rowers, r-1. with a few outstand ing clain.ft yet unpaid which may swell that amount a little. The association shipped approxi mately 110,000 pounds of cherries this year ant. brought returns from 30 cents to a dollar a box higher than any cars in competition with the local cars from any district. Only one car in competition brought a better figure than the association cars, and that was one from Hood Uiver with the cherries faced in the boxes while none of the association cherries were fac ed. In one combination car carrying partly Marlon brand cherries of the association and other cars of a competitor, liro oka states that the Marion brand packed cherries brought ?T7 cents a box higher than tho others. In one car 74 boxes were missing on arrival of tne car, having been stolen In transit, and in another car a few buxe.; were empty. These constitute the outstanding claims held by the association which may realize a llUIj more money for the growers before the pool Is finally closed.
