Selfishness hag been the keyâ€"note of the whole business in the past. It has been a case of dog Every fruit grower is familiar with the pJoblems that are steadily growâ€" ing worse: 1, the unreasonable cost of ~containers; 2, no central authorâ€" ity for distribution ‘ with its conseâ€" quent‘ gluts; 3, no voice in the price our product shall. be gold for; 4,, the constant undercutting of prices by the dealers in order to ,§et business ; 5, owing to the perishable nature of fruit the only possible way of holdâ€" ing it for a better market is in the hands of the canners: Now it‘s all very well to sing about writing ourâ€"title clear to. mansions in the sky, but a few of us would like to write our title clear to a manâ€" sion here. ~The Senator‘s article would seem to leave him open to the suspicion that he wants to=â€"â€"reserve that‘prerogative for himself. In the July 16th Spectator appearâ€" ed an article from E. D. Smith exâ€" posing some of the fallacies of the big Coâ€"operative Movement. The arâ€" guments used would shem very plausâ€" ible to the casual reader, but with a little analysis they resolve into mere halfâ€"truths and ifevasions calculated to deceive those}z who do not take the time or have not the: inclination to weigh the exvidence. «No doubt the Senator sees~the handâ€"writing on the wallâ€"and feels like that otherâ€" charâ€" ’acter of Biblical History who thought the world was his oyster, that both he and the system he champions have, been weighed in ~the ~balance and found wanting. No one will deny that E. D. Smith has "been instruâ€" mentalsin «openings© up â€" Warkets in pioneér days and for ~this Ave give him .credit, but to persistently opâ€" pose as he does, every progressive effort of the fruit grower to put his business on a sound and paying basi and "to advocéte a ~wornâ€"out systen that has (uffed to solv@ a single prob= lem, is fo s4y "the least, brandirzf himself as lacking in intelligence .as hecevidently thinks the average fruit grower is. Did not Mr.. ‘Smith ‘say that last .year hig own farms nettéfl him only two per cent. on money inâ€" vested.. If that is true, ig it not A fine commentary on the system of which he is so able an ‘exponent? His fruit lands: are the ‘very best,â€" but . two. : per. cent.â€"‘Well many a grower sold his fruit to E. D. Smith last year and didn‘teven make that. Has it ever occurred to anyone that the wideness of prosperity to be sefg around Helderleigh does not seem = correspond with a two per cent. proâ€"| FRUIT GROWERS AND C0â€"OPERâ€" ATION To the Editor, Independentâ€" f 'flllllllllllllllllIlllllllllIIIIlIIIIIIIIIlIlIIllIlIIIII'Ii'le’IIIl|l|||l||l|||||||ll|||||Illlllllllllllll'_i' eAAA nmbe Een himeedtbtp o eeemtuintup a.comparison of, prices paid by himâ€" self .and the Cooperative. He admits he paid. higher pmrices as related : to selling: price than eyer before. . Why? Would he have. done so if there had been no cooperative? The answer is so simple to quote, his. own words that any one.should be able to see it. He paid higher prices for the. ob vious reason of ‘being able to . make just that comparisgon. (Everybody knew he â€" wouldâ€"do it. Just what anybody would â€"do who lacked vision or busiâ€" ness â€".statesmanship.: Some â€"dealers were quite willing to do without proâ€" fits for one year if they could disâ€" courage. cooperation «thereby. â€" A j eat dog, every man for himself" and the Devil take the hindmost with the grower occupying that positi'o_n.’ Under the old system there was alâ€" ways a fine chance to put it ‘over somebody. The ‘dealer Ydn‘t need to tell the grower he was making 25¢ per basket~ or 75¢ per crate, he could buy fruit at commigsion house ‘prices and send it out on order at a big profit. He could underâ€"quote the other dealer one day to get busiâ€" ness because he knew the other deal. er would. underquote him the next. It was a fine game while it lasted. Now I have nothing to say against {the dealers ,they have served a useful purpose. . They. were exactly what we allowed them to be, but weâ€" have come, I hope to . a parting of : the ways. The grower has at last awakâ€" ened to the fact that he is the only business man who has nothing to say about his own. business. Surely the Senator can read the signs of the times; few men have had the chance to rise to a ~greater opportunity â€"to serve his fellows in a great industry. The Senator mayâ€"yet find\ that the desire to serve is q better . ‘business asset than mere selfishness. _ * Now let us examine one or two â€" of the Senator‘s arguments. He invites GRIMSBY E. W.
