3rd. Eastern Auction
Vc sell as much as possible Tor cash. Oregon acceptance under Mio first method ns Ion
as tho prices are acceptable and profitable to tho grower. Such sales are made here for cas't
as Ihe car is loaded or throiwh pro-season sales made tinder a blndlnR contract with Fasten,
Healers. Purchasers are required in all cases to make a substantial cash deposit per car at
the time of sale, the balance being payable before arrival of the fruit on delivery of Hill of I ad
lng with Inspection Certificate attached, showing that the fruit Is up to the grade called for in
the contract. Note that the complete payment for tho shipment has been made before the
arrival at the point of destination and the sale Is In no way subject to any inspection on the
part of Ihe purchaser other than as desired at the Oregon point of shipment.
This ""'"'"'I constitutes a real K. O. 11. sale and must not be confused with ao-cilled "r

us hey can be n.ado at satisfactory prices. It Is not desirable to narke these true F O if
cash sales at .:reatly reduced prices simply to Insure a certain yield because such reduction can
only tend tu reduce the market price of that particular fruit.
