We Have an Interesting and Profitable Proposition for Growers 1
The prices are much higher than they have ever been before. The grower who takes advantage of ttiismethod of
marketing his crop will find his packing costs entirely eliminated, and his harvesting problem confined only to that
of picking and hauling to the packing house.
It wiU be to their advantage to get in touch with Mr. Schlaf at once before they decide upon their marketing plan
for this year. It is a matter of regret that the capacity of the packing house is limited, therefore those who are desir
ous of taking advantage of an easy-marketing, good-profit making plan would do well to communicate with our
representative at once.
