POOL 1 1 CENTS
Checks for growers In the Sa
lem Ulack Cherry association on
the 1925 pool are made out ready
for delivery at Vick brothers,
Manaeer O. E. 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.
