It is believed that the Long Bow has gone down with all hands. Prominent among the passengers was Mr. Bunco Skinner, whose spectacular success as promotor of the Continental Market Distributor's Bureau attracted wide attention. It is reported that Mr. Skinner was urged to devote his talents to INTERNATION- AL PIRACY and he is said to have been on his way to accept such a post with a prominant European belligerent when the Long Bow was submarined. (C. C. P.) Good Bye, B. S., Proud Produce Pirate! Your B. S. schemes have served their purpose if their lessons have been learned by Better Fruit readers who have watched your trail. Northwestern Apple Producers will never prosper till they quit being gulled by clever prestidigitators who profess to pluck dollars out of the thin air. The latest form of this emotional in- sanity is to be found in the NATIONAL DISTRIBUTOR IDEA. This idea insures a rake-off to evei-ybody except the pro- ducerâhe gets what is left. There is no magic in mere size and volume. The formidable combinations of so-called National Distributors are everywhere breaking down, and the trade is settling back to the time tested and normal condition of INDIVIDUAL effort. The victims of the National Distributors are tired of holding the bag. The number of independent local shipping organizations is increasing. The sales are heavier, and we are beginning to hear of auction sales. The producer's problem finds its true solution in a UNION OF INDIVIDUAL EFFORT AND LOCAL CO-OPERATION. Carry your eggs in one basket and then watch the basket. The small producer cannot watch a National Distributor, but he can watch and guard his inter- ests in a local union of neighbors.
