The Jackson County Chamber of
Commerce has started a campaign re­
garding the inspection of fruits, veg­
etables and all farm products shipped
into Oregon, which it is hoped will
culminiate in a legislative act pro-
viding for thorough Inspection. The
resolution adopted by the Jackson
body reads:
uIt' is regularly moved that the
board of directors of the Jackson
County Chamber of Commerce takes
the necessary steps through the
proper authorities at Salem, to pro­
tect Oregon growers against the im­
portation of inferior products from
adjoining states.”
Further information from there
states that the chamber wishes it un­
derstood that thi* is not a retaliatory
measure, but is designed definitely to
keep out the flood of inferior prod­
ucts which demoralize our market* at
the expense of our grower*.

Commerce does not wish tourist* to

effects examined.
The whole pur­

bring about better inspection of
