Aftei the fruit meeting of lust week
the following- article taken from the
Koeue River Fruit Grower should
docideulv interesting to Mood
growers, who, so the article states,
have the finest selling machine in the
L'nited States:
The toll that is extracted from the
farmer for marketing his products is
all out of proportion to the price that
he receives and the consumer pays.
Government statistics prove that it
costs the farmer more than double to
market his products, than it dut's the
manufacturer or other town producer
to dispose of his wares. This is large
ly due to the large number ot middle
men that intervene between the farmer
and the consumer. It ia not alone
caused by high freight rates, as alleged
by the commission dealers, for the
railroads give a lower rate on fruit
shipments than they do on manufac
tured articles. The rate on apples
from Rogue River Valley to New York
is $1.00 per hundred pounds. And fruit
ifoes bv fast, first clas freight. No
factory in this Valley could get this
low rate to ship its products to the
Atlantic Coast by fast fneeht.
n the sale of manufactured products
there are seldom more than two mid
dlemen between the producer and the
consumer, a wholesaler and a retailer,
Often the manufacturer eliminates the
wholesaler and sells dinct to the re
tailer and there are many manufactur
ers now that sell direct to the consum
er. But the farmer through his lack
of organization and co operation and
his inexperience in the methods of
trade has been forced to depend on
middlemen to sell his ptoducts. Tak
ing advantage of this dependence of
the farmer, the middlemen have in
creased their numbers and their
charges until it frequer'ly occurs that
farm produce will pay toll to a dozen
dealers and it is seldom that less than
four of these profit sharers have
hand in the deal that leaves no profit
at all for the luckless farmer.
In the endeavor to eliminate some of
the middlemen, and thus lessen the
cost of marketing their products, far
mers in various parts of the country
have formed selling associations. In a
few instances these associations are
success and a benefit to the members,
but in most cases they have not les
sened the farmer's burden at all. In
this new arrangement, the farmers all
too often have found that their profits,
previously taken by the mid de men,
absorbed by big salaries for managers,
assistant managers', cashiers, secretar
ies and a host of other clerks und em-
iloyeea, big telegraph lo.ia, elaborate
ottice equipment and other lavish ex
penses.
this is to be me experience oi tiie
fruit growers of Rogue River Valley,
who went into the Rogue River rruit
Produce Association. I his associa
tion, formed by the consolidation of
the local associations tit Mtdford and
Grants I'ass, started out two years ago
with a large membership anil tine pros
pects for success, but the greed of a
few and the inilinerence oi the great
majority of the members, has put this
organization in a fair way to go to a
finish, as has so many oilier co-opera
tive marketing organizations, it is
thus nossible that this Association may
not handle another crop, for many of
the owners of bearing orchards in
Roeue River Valley are to the know
cue ot the editor of the Rogue River
fruit Grower, planning to market their
crop of this year through some other
channel.
One of the many expensive mistakes
made by this Association was to em
li ov as manager tor the nrst year, an
ex-commission man direct irom t in
cago. The opportunity was turned
down fnr securing the manager of the
Hood River Fruit Growers' Associa
tion, it man who had made a success in
handling association marketing, and
who had a high standing for Ins ability,
integrity, economy and close attention
to all business matters. The Chicago
man was a total stranger to Rogue
River Vallev. and knew nothing of
ocal conditions, and admitted that he
had no knowledge as to marketing
pears, the principal fruit crop of the
Valley. He was paid a salary of $fi)00
year, though the Hood River man
could have been hud for $3,000, with
an additional generous allowance each
month for automobile hire. The Asso
ciation fitted up a line suite of offices
fur him in Medford. and installed roll
topped desks and other elaborate fur
niture. A force of clerks sufficient to
run a bank handling deposits of a mil
lion dollars were employed and paid
liberal salaries.
All went well, and the fruit growers
were proud of their line office and their
dignified manager, whose broad ex
nanse of white vest and pompous
manner impressed strangers that the
orchards of Rogue River Valley were
cold mines. As a real estate advertis
ing scheme, the Association for that
year was a booming success, but when
the members began to get statements
showine the returns for their fruit
their Dnde turned to resentment ana
thev bowed out their manager, he of
the broad expanse of white vest.
Then a new manager was elected,
man who had lived a few years in the
Valley, but had had no experience on
andling an association or margeiing
fruit.
The assessment being rather heavy
on the memoeis, tney cut tne new
manager's salary to $3,000 and made
some reduction in tne nutnuer
lerks, foremen, etc. I hen the rea
fruit erowers again took up their or
chard work with the tond hope that
when they got returns for the year
that there would he something of
showine on the profit side. Again they
were disappointed, hvidenliy to mane
a display of activity and to impress
atranuers passing on Southern I'acifie
trains, the new manager naa inree Dig
warehouses erected along mat railroad
though they were not needed to handle
the season s crops, and but one was
used and it but little. These useless
building expenses mean more assess
ments on the members.
And the fruit growers in this high
priced Association have found to their
disappointment that as a marketing
combination for getting better prices
it is no improvement over the old sys
tem, nor less expensive than were the
middlemen. Both seasons that this
Association has handled fruit it merely
loaded the cars and consigned them to
a California commission firm, as any
individual could do. This California
firm then consigned the fruit to East
ern commission houses and these in
turn sent it to retail. rt and at last the
fruit trot to the consumer, but at such
a big price that each could purchase
but little. That cut down the con
sumption of fruit and thus limited the
demand, and the haif-dozen commis
sions cut down the profit to the vanish
ing point, and that left the hapless
fruit erowers in the same financial
difficulties that they weie in when they
depended on the middlmen.
Billine the cars of fruit to the Cali
fornia commission house and leaving
to them the task of seeking a market
was a soft snap for both of the man-

agers, but after a two years trial
with only meager returns tor fruit, the
the growers became restive and de
manded a change in market met hods.
In an effort to save his bob and fat
salary, the present manager worked up
another marketing connection. Ins
plan was really only a change of con
signees with no decrease in the numlser
of commission houses and tolls, and it
imposed no additional work on him, for
by this new deal he would continue to
bill out the cars, leaving the rest with
the middlemen. This deal was to be
with the Northwest Fruit Exchange, a
Portland corporation of jobbers in
fruit, which is affiliated with the North
American Fruit Exchange, a corpora
tion of New York fruit jobbers. The
Portland firm was not content with the
usual commission on sales, but de
manded that the Rogue River Fruit &
Produce Association take stock in their
corporation, and pay $H,000 in cash for
it and to be given only a small minor
ity share. This scheme meant more
assessments on the members and they
turned it down hard.
The last move of this shifty manager
as to endeavor to get the association

next move on the part of the manager ,

to tell.
One of the greatest handicaps that 1
on Rogue River Valley is the enor
mous amount of money that (lows in a
steady stream from the Valley, anil far
n excess of the returns had from local
resources. Much ot this money goes
or commodities that could be produced
as cheaply and efficiently at home as
broad. To be an aid in stopping this
nancial drain, that brings business
tacnation to the Valley whenever the
nllow ot newcomers money ceases.

workets in the organization of the

Your Money Back if You are not Satisfied
With the Medicine We Recommend.
We are so noaitive that our remedy
will permanently relieve constipation,
no matter how chronic it may be. that
we offer to formal) the medicine at
our expense should it fail to produce
satisfactory results.
It is worse than useless to attempt
to cure constipation with cathartic
druijH. Laxatives or cathartics do
much harm. They cause a jeaction,
irritate, and weaken the bowels and
tend to make constipation more chron
ic. Besides, their use becomes a habit
that is dangerous.
Constipat.ou is caused by a weakness
oT the nerves and muscles of the large
intestine or descending colon. To ex
pect permanent relief you must there
fore tone ud and strengthen these or
gans and restore them to healthier
activity.
We want you to try Rexall Orderlies
on our recommendatiou. They are
exceedingly pleasant to take, being
eaten like candy, and are ideal for
children, delicate persons, and old
folks, as well as for the rouust. they
act directly on the nerves and muscles
of the bowels. They apparently have
neutral action on other associate
organs or glands. They do not purge, I
cause excessive looseness, nor create
any inconvenience whatever. They t
may be taken at any lime, day or
night. They will positively relieve!
chronic or habitual constipation, if not
of surgical variety, and the myriads
of associate or dependent chronic ail
ments, if taken with regularity for a
reasonable length of time. 12 tablets.
