San German. ncss, and perhaps there always will be, a certain element so hungry to do busi- ness that they too have lost sight of all the higher principles of business and these unfit prunes are always bought by them. Of course the inevitable end of that packer is failure sooner or later, but by a run of fortunate market condi- tions he may last through several sea- sons and during that period can do the industry untold I could point you to any number of wholesale deal- ers and to the trade in more than one entire city where they have quit buy- ing Oregon prunes for no other reason than that above stated. It seems to me that the time has come and that there is no other alternative except to compel this small minority to become honest. We must have some sort of legislation which will fix a fair, reasonable standard for Oregon cured fruit, to which both grower and packer shall be compelled to measure up, and with this law there must be provided the necessary machinery fo make it de- cidedly effective. Give us this and I believe the outlook for prune growing in the Northwest is decidedly bright. Without it the majority cannot build up the trade fast enough to overcome the counter effects of the careless, dishon- est operator. The outlook for the Ore- gon prune as a steady, profitable horti- cultural industry is decidedly bright except for the two exceptions noted above, both of which will eventually be eliminated.
