Growers league are to be btxtt Dt-
oember 13 end 11 to the Oregon

Mediord meeting was held In 1939
ant! was one of the best ever heM
rue to the large and enthusiastic at
tendance of local growers and the
hearty welcome which they gave to
the members or the state society.
The session held this year promisee
to be even more Important and bet
ter entertainment than the one four
years ago because the spirit or nope'
fulness Is reflected In ttie program
which the very capable committee
has outlined. There will be two days
of the convention, which will cover
both the Important speeches as out
lined In the program and the busi
ness session, at which officers will

ness transacted.

composed of George Dean and Lyle
WUoox of Mcdford and O. T. Mo-
Wborter of Oorvallls; and the enter
tainment committee, of which Ray
mond Reter Is chairman, have ar
ranged for a social session on the
evening of Wednesday, the 13Wi, at
which many surprises are promisoa,
The principal publicity which the
committee has given out so rar is
that the fruit growers are to be
guests of the Medford Chamber of
Commerce and there will be plenty
of excellent beer, sandwiches of all
kinds, hot dogs and other embellish
ments, e.
The session will start promptly at
9:30 Wednesday morning at the Elks
temple. Due to the courtesy of the
local B. P. O. I., this excellent audi
torium hss been loaned for these
meetings, which ojf course Insures
everyone having a good time and be
ing comfortable. It Is hoped by the
48th annual msetlng of the Oregon
State Horticultural society that local
growers will avail themselves of the
opportunity to hear the very best
men in the northwest on subjects
which are of Immediate and practical
value to them.
The committee asks that those who
are planning to accept the Invitation
