nrices in keeDinsr with scarcity of 8Ut
ply and greatly increased demand. The
writer of this letter had sold 30 eggs
for a sum the equivalent of a little

Pacific Fruit and Produce Co.
CASH BUYERS
We are desirous of making arrangements to buy Hood River
fruit for CASH. We shall soon open a permanent office at Hood
River, the same to be in charge of Mr. R. R. Gill, who temporarily
can be found at the Oregon Hotel.
We wish those who expect to have fruit to market this com
ing season would investigate our proposition. We shall not ask
anyone to sign contracts with us. It will cost you nothing to
join our selling organization and should you not like our style,
it will cost you nothing to quit. We bought a few cars of Hood River
strawberries last season, paying from $2 to $2.35 per crate, and
found the business profitable. Our operations in the past have
been largely confined to the Yakima Valley. We gladly reter
you to any fruit grower in that valley.
We challenge any shipping organization that was ever hung together to match the
average of our returns. Ask your banker to advise you regarding our responsibility.
When you sell us fruit you don't go home without your money.
If you MUST and WILL consign your fruit, we will make liberal cash advances
and handle on consignment, but we do not commend the practice. We operate in forty
different towns and cities and have responsible and competent representation in others.
