Evangelist and Musician At PILGRIM HOLINESS CHURCH 1 165 East Jackson Street Medford, Oregon Each Evening it 7:45 P.M. Beginning Sunday, March 19, and continuing through April 2 JOHN CONNOR, Pastor Lowry Purchases Naumes' Interest In Packing Firm Change of ownershiD in the Associated Fruit company was announced today. J. P. Naumes has retired from the company having sold his interest in the partnership to David B. Lowry. The Associated Fruit company has a pear packing plant at Phoenix, and operates a peach packing and sales operation at 619 South Grape street, where the general office is located. "Mr. Naumes and I have oper ated the Associated Fruit com pany upon the basis of a quality product that would bring the fruit grower a premium return," Lowry said in announcing the transaction.'. "I feel this policy is more important than ever be fore in the face of declining prices of agricultural products," he said, "and while we intend to pass on to the grower any sav ings we can accomplish by re duced overhead, better equip ment and packing methods, we will not sacrifice quality for cheap packing, as we do not be lieve it is in the best interest of our growers." One Of Largest "Associated Fruit company Is one of the largest packers of Deaches in the Medford district. In the past years they have shipped Hale peaches to points as far distant as Hawaii and Alaska, as well as the eastern United States. I believe we can continue to develop a fine stone fruit horticulture in the Rogue River valley if we concentrate on careful growing, better pack aging and distribution," Lowry stated. While J. P. Naumes is retired from the packing business, he will continue to operate his or chard holdings.
