to passengers on the train, and
Whereas, such practice with Its
dire results are directly harmful
and a terrible menace to the fruit
Interests and a misrepresentation of
the greatest Industry of the valley,

Whereas, a few persons thus em
ployed ran at such a place undo
more than all the advertising can
effect.
Now, therefore, be It resolved;
that we condemn In strongest terms
the practice of selling such diseased
fruit upon the trains, and resolved
that we request our growers of fruit
not to sell cull apples to persons who
thus wrongfully dispose of them
upon the train, and, third, bo It further
