I JELLS FRUIT (Continued tiucn page one) phla 10 per cent. With the known packout we could easily arrive at the total number of boxes each town under control would have to take. Our next problem was to decide the rate of selling. Again referring to performance of previous years we determined the average selling seas on, the week of peak movement and the number of boxes sold before the peak and after. We now had the season divided into two parts so we built our quotas up from a few cars the first week to the peak and then from the peak, tapering off to the finish. This made a chart which we called the ideal marketing arrange ment. Previous years this chart start ed in almost at the end of the Cal ifornia Bartlett season but this seas on we moved It up almost two weeks. We derided that no longer would tits district hold the bag for California, particularly since they have decided they have a Bartlett that can be held In storage. "Keeping In mind our rate of movement and through the cooper ation of all shippers In this district we headed for a cleanup on Decem ber IS, knowtirg that this was Im possible but we did practically end the deal on January 1, which the committee thought ideal. j "I have heard it said that the : committee erred in not holding more j cars for the end of the season at which time the market Jumped about $1.00. In defense of our con trol plan Vils past season allow me to state that we started out with an "orphan," a variety that did not stand any too high in the eyes of the consumer. We had a fairly large crop. 320.000 boxes from this dis trict, unknown weather conditions, unknown keeping quality and prob-' ably most Important, an experiment in marketing never before tried. I say 'moat important because we did not know whether Vie eastern trade would take kindly to a 'control plan' the name itself implies 'hot potatoes,' something to keep your hands away from to the trade. And the fact that we were determined to offer only ripe fruit that alone spelled dynamite, not only to whole salers but to some receivers. All of these made It necessnry to sell heav ily on what we thought was a fair market and not speculate on weath er conditions, attitude of the trade, etc. The fact that we had an ad vance at the end of the season proves to me that the control plan along with a conditioning program, is essential to the success of one of the best varieties raised in this district." "Lead arcnsaU is still our codling moti Insecticide," stated Prof. R. H. Robinson of Oregon State college, the next speaker, whose talk on the subject of "Spray Preparations and Their Use" was heard with much Interest. In answering the question of what is properly and Improperly made lime sulphur. Professor Rob inson said that only high grade lime should be used, that It should be free of all impurities, that care should be taken in the boiling pro cess, and that the sulphur should not only be pure but neither too coatm nor too fine. Further Instructions considered of much Importance by those present Included the following: In the boll lng tank the lime should be slakrd with hot water, the sulphur thrown In during slaking, the kettle hot when this takes place and the mix ture bolted three -quarters of an hour. During boiling, the tank should be covered with boards and contents stirred continuously. In us ing .home made emulsion, spraying should be done thoroughly, but over- drenching avoided. During the open forum which fol lowed the formal program, growers i received Information on nicotine and tank mix sprsys and quick break-1 lng oils for dormant use. At this time. Dr. G. B. Dean annoxmced that the league was cooperating with Ore gon State college in a research pro gram for by-products. Paul Scherer of the Bartlett pear commodity committee, spoke briefly of the several conferences which had been held recently for the purpose of working out control plans, such as elimination and proper alloca tion. Two groups would be formed within California and Oregon, he stated, with canners and producers to determine pears to be packed from each district. Orowers would then decide upon the proper con trol plan for the Pacific coast, ac cording to Mr. Scherer's report. A motion to pass resolutions of regret upon the death of W. E.
