The Oregon Legislature has an op
portunity to adopt legislation that
will really be of great benefit to the
entire state. The lawmakers should
seize this opportunity and enact a law
that will make possible the proposed
$7,900,000 bond issue. Let us hope
that the session will end gloriously
with such laws passed.

ROOT AGWdIS-
CUSSES ROADMASTEK
Editor Hood River Glacier : In cor
respondence growing out of the let
ter about a roadmaster In a recent
issue of your paper I have been told
that the general impression In Hood
River among those specially Interest
ed is that one member of the County
Court Is whole-heartedly in favor of
turning the road management over to
one specially qualified man and back
ing him up solidly, while the other
two members, although convinced
that that system would give us better
roatls. think it better to let matters
drift as they are for two reasons:
tlrst, because the Legislature at
alem may enact a new road law, and
second, because there are some con
tradictory passages in the present
read law.
As to the first reason, there Is no
rond law seriously considered at
Salem which does not enable the
road work of a county to be put In
the hands of one specially qualified
man. If onr County Court will take
' this vitally necessary step at once,
in time for our Spring road work to
get the benefit, then if a new law Is
passed it may change some details of
the forms of handling the business
end of road management and it may
change the title of the roan at the
head of the work, but the same man,
If competent, can be continued under
the new law at the same time that
the details of a new law are complied
with. Grover Cleveland said,
It is a question of "Men, not meas
ures." And we are not sure of a new
law.
As to the second reason, the weak
nesses in the present road law, just
recall the difference along this line
between Taft and Roosevelt. When
Talft decided that a thing ought to
he dono he always asked, "Is there
any law for this step?" Roosevelt al
ways asked, "Is there any law against
It?" Roosevelt was a getter of re
sults Taft was not.
Now there is not ono word In our
present law to prevent our Court
from taking the businesslike step of
putting a man in charge of our roads
and solidly harking him up as Mult
nomah County has done. In fact the
law, weak as it is, rather favors that
course. And that the majority of
public opinion in Hood River favors
this step not even the blindest super
visor can any longer doubt.
Yours very truly,
Ralph Root.

Money Talks
-TO
Fruit Growers
BY
Northwestern Fruit Exchange
No. 12
Foreign Sales Service
TO FRUIT GROWERS:
The EXCHANGE has never been a
hand to take things for granted or to
base its actions on mere theories. It
believes that "judgment not based on
knowledge and accurate information is
worthless," and on that principle, nev
er adopts a policy until it has iirat con
ducted careful inquiries into every
phase of the matter to be determined.
There is no business in the world in
which practical experience, skill and
accuracy is more vitally necessary, or
in which theories are so dangerous as
the perishable fruit business. Mis
takes are always costly ; they are gen
erally irretrievable and so the need for
sound conservative judgment is very
great. Especially is this true in deal
ing with the foreign market situation.
The export business is full of pitfalls
for the unwary or inexperienced. It
bristles with technicalities and the
amateur is certain to come to grief un
less he proceeds with utmost caution.
The successful execution of export bus
iness in the fruit trade requires facili
ties and talent of the highest character
There rVfost be first class facilities at
American seaboard where the fruit is
trans-shipped. Rigid inspection, with
drawal or unsuitable or damaged par
cels, engagement of cargo space in ad
vance, superintendence or transfer
from car to lighter and from lighter to
ship, of the proper stowage of the
fruit, seeing that the fruit is stowed
away in airy, well-ventilated sections
of the hold in case of ventilated stow
age, execution of clearance papers,
consular invoices, customs documents,
etc., these are some of the require
ments of the service on THIS side.
Then, when the fruit arrives at for
eign destnations there must be similar
facilites to look after the proper dis
charge of the cargo and the deliveries
to the buyers. The offices of the EX
CHANGE at New York and Boston
were organized with reference to these
requirements and the New York office
has a special foreign department which
has become very expert in all these
matters. Then, of course, comes the
matter of first class representation in
the foreign markets themselves. This
is not easy to secure. In the first
place, all foreign countries, especially
Europe, are overrun with agents and
brokers, many of them irresponsible.
All of them are eager for business
and many are able to put up very
plausible arguments. It occurred to
the EXCHANGE that it would be
highly dangerous to undertake any ex
tensive operations in the export trade
until it had first made a first-hand
study of the conditions on the ground.
Accordingly, the EXCHANGE sent me
to Europe in the spring of 1912 to con
duct a thorough investigation and to
take su'h steps as might be necessary
to afford the EXCHANGE'S members
the utmost measure of service ana pro
tection. First, I studied the situation in
GREAT BRITAIN. After canvassing
it thorougly, I went over to the Conti
nent, and made a thorough study of
those markets, particularly GER
MANY. I studied the conditions in
Bremen and Hamburg, the ports of
entry and then covered the interior
markets, traveling to Essen, Cologne,
Frankfort, Mainz, Mannheim, Wies
baden, Leipsig, Berlin and a large
number of other cities.
As a result of this investigation I
decided that the only really safe and
satisfactory system would oe for the
NORTHWESTERN FRUIT EX
CHANGE to have a branch office of its
own in EUROPE, and so we opened
our office In LONDON in July, 1912.
This office was placed in charge of F.
S. A. MAUDE, and was located in the
Country Life Building, 17 to 21 Tav
istock St, W. C right in the heart of
the Covent Garden market district.
We were extremely fortunate in our
selection of the Manager. Mr. Maude
is an Englishman by birth, and there
fore entirely at home in dealing with
the British trade, but he had the great
additional advantage of many years of
residence in America, and training in
the fruit business on this side. He was
trained by the CALIFORNIA FRUIT
GROWERS' EXCHANGE, and had
successfully filled the position of man
ager of various of their United States
branches, working his way up in their
sevice to the very important executive
position of General Eastern Agent at
Chicago. He left that position volun
tarily to return to England and for
several years was General European
Agent of the CALIFORNIA EX
CHANGE. So, you see he had just ex
actly the right training and experience
to make a success of our work, and
during the years that he managed our
business in Europe, has more than
made good. Recently he has. entered
tha service of his country, but the
Last week we had the good
fortune to buy a fine line of
high grade shoes and other
merchandise at a big sacrifice
and are now able to offer you
high grade ladies, children and
men's shoes of standard brand
such as O'Donnell and Ameri
can Gentlemen for men; Star
Brand and Selz shoes for ladies
and children for about one-half
the price they were offered for
sale at in Portland. If you wish
a bargain in shoes now is the
time to get it. We wish to dis
pose of them as rapidly as pos
sible and have them marked
98c
$1.50
office is in charge of the Assistant
Manager, trained by Mr. Maude.
While the LONDON office of the
EXCHANGE has general supervision
over the whole European situation, the
EXCHANGE has direct agents in the
Continental markets. The GERMAN
market is covered by a General Agency
which has 25 branch offices throughout
the Empire, and works with the EX
CHANGE under an exclusive arrange
ment. Each one of these branch offices
displays samples of EXCANGE brands
ana is working constantly to cultivate
and enlarge the demand. The Scandi
navian markets (Norway and Sweden)
are covered by an organization similar
ly equipped. So far as I know the
EXCHANGE'S agents are the only or
ganizations on the Continent, in the
fruit trade, commanding comprehen
sive branch 'office facilities of this
nature. Naturally, the results have
been excellent, although, of courre,
business with Germany is impossible
during the war, and the business with
even neutral countries limited.
Beside its principal agencies in Eng
land, Germany, Norway and Sweden,
the EXCANGE has agencies in Rotter
dam, lopenhagen, Petrograd and other
distributing centers of Europe.
The importance of European markets
as an outlet for surplus stocks of Amer
ican apples, both barrels and boxes,
has never been fully appreciated until
this season, when the difficulties of
export have been so great that the do
mestic markets have been forced to
consume a much greater proportion of
the total supply than usual, with the
result that prices have been materially
influenced. If the war continues, the
export position cannot be increasingly
difficult and dangerous and this is a
factor that must be reckoned with in
market calculations.
OTHER EXPORT MARKETS
CUBA-The EXCHANGE has an
agency at HAVANA through which it
has dvelopod considerable business both
in apples and pears. Pears are a fa
vorite fruit in Central and South
America and are considered a great
luxury.
SOUTH AMERICA The NORTH
WESTERN FRUIT EXCHANGE was
the first marketing agency represent
ing Growers of the Northwest to make
a first-hand study and investigation of
the bouth American markets. In May,
1914, it sent one of its New York office
staff to cover the markets of Brazil
and the Argentine. This investigation
covered a period of about four months,
and included a study of conditions in
all the principal cities: Rio, Sao
Paula, Santos, Pernambuco in Brazil,
Montevido in Uruguay, and Buenos
Ayres, Rosario and other cities in the
Argentine Kepublic. Agencies were
established and considerable business
was booked, but the outbreak of the
European war in August of that year
paralyzed business and finance and
much valuable business was lost,
though some was executed. However,
conditions have improved greatly since
then and the EXCHANGE, fortified by
first hand knowledge of the conditions,
is in excellent position to develop this
businessfto the best advantage. Com
prehensive plans to this end are under
way.
SOUTH AFRICA - To this EX
CHANGE belongs the credit of intro
ducing Northwestern boxed apples in
to the markets of South Africa. It
took two years of patient, persistent
effort to accomplish this. Formerly
the only American apples used in that
market (which, by the way, can only
take imported apples up to Christmas,
after which time native fruits of all
kinds are abundant) were barreled ap
ples from Nova Scotia and Ontario.
However, through the effort of its
LONDON force, the EXCHANGE pre
vailed on the London partners of a
South African firm of importers to
send a representative to the North
west Once on the ground, the EX
CHANGE interested and sold this firm
an introductory order of several car
loads, for spot cash f. o. b. shipping
points. The fruit went through in good
shape and since then the business has
increased steadily. Lack of refriger
ated cargo space, however, restricts
this trade considerably. The EX
CHANGE has made sales and ship
ments to CAPE TOWN, PORT ELIZ
ABETH, EAST LONDON, DURBAN,
JOHANNESBURG and BULAWAYO.
South Africa. This past season it re
ceived a cable order for 5,000 boxes of
certain brands packed by EXCHANGE
members (whic'i had become estab
lished on the South African m trkets)
from a new customer, who left the
price open for the EXCHANGE to 6x
and cabled the funds to a New York
bank. Unfortunately, even so desira
ble an order as this could not be exe
cuted owing to the extreme shortage
in cargo space caused by the war.
However, the point is that these mar
kets have been opened and will use in
creasing quantities of our f ruts when
the shipping conditions become easier,
AUSTRALIA This season the EX
CHANGE secured and executed a very
large order for Australian account on
a basis spot cash shipping point accept
ance. VLADIVOSTOK, SIBERIA - The
EXCHANGE haa regular agents at
this point and has done some extremely
profitable business in this market for
its members. Shipments to this mar
ket however, like many others, are
greatly reduced on account of the
shortage in cargo space.
MANILA, P. I.-Here, too, the EX
CHANGE haa an agency which has
branches in Hong Kong and various
