WALNUT ASSOCIATION ADOPTS NEW POLICY Regulations Regarding Membership Changed by Directors For the purpose of stabilizing the volume of business which it will be called upon to handle in future years, to the end that sales campaigns may be more accurately mapped out and put into execution most economically, the board of directors of the California Walnut Growers' Association, meeting last week, adopted a resolution in regard to its future policies, which are regarded as of vital interest to every walnut grower in the state. According to the new arrangement, the membership books of the central association will be closed to local associations and the books of all local associations will be closed to grower members from August 1, 1925 to January 1, 1927. Thereafter the books of the central association and its affiliated locals will be open for acceptance of new members only between January 1 and August 1 of each alternate year. Ample provision has been made by the board for the admission to membership, prior to August 1 of any year, of owners of groves just coming into bearing, legitimate purchasers of new groves and new local associations in new districts, as well as the transfer of grower members from one local association to another. The outstanding feature of the new policy concerns withdrawal from membership. Under the new policy a grower who legally withdraws from the association will not again be eligible for membership until two crop seasons have elapsed. Grower members who withdraw from membership illegally, either by breach of market stabilizer for the great mass of walnut growers, 85 per cent of whom are members of the association. On the other hand, it will remove the temptation which frequently has prompted some growers, for the sake of a chance to make a little extra profit, to break their contracts with the association during a year of light production and sell their crops to independent shippers who are eager to buy because the market is hungry, and then rush helter-skelter back into the open arms of the association when an unusually heavy crop of walnuts makes good prices a matter of some uncertainty and association methods most likely to bring the best returns. In discussing the new policy C. C. Teague, chairman of the board of directors of the association, says: "The California Walnut Growers' Association is no new thing. It has had an active and successful existence of more than 12 years, and all of the walnut growers in this state have had an opportunity to become familiar with its worth to the industry through results which have been obtained. "Growers should consequently be in position to decide before August 1 whether they want to join the association this summer or remain outside the association during the next two crop seasons. Such being the case, the adoption of these new rules, which the board believes will materially increase the efficiency and further success of the organization, should in no way work a hardship upon walnut growers who are non-members." Mr. Teague, who is perhaps the outstanding figure in co-operative marketing as it is practiced in California, explains that it is quite important that association officials should know, far in advance of the marketing assert, cannot be unless it is possible early in each year walnut acreage is to be, the bestsible under the old membership system.

Under the new policy a grower who legally withdraws from the association will not again be eligible for membership until two crop seasons have elapsed. Grower members who withdraw from membership illegally, either by breach of contract or otherwise, cannot regain admission to a local association for a period of three years. The same rule applies to local associations which withdraw from the central association. The new policy is rather a new departure from co-operative marketing methods which have long been in vogue in Southern California and was worked out by the directors, after great deliberation, to correct certain membership abuses which have come to be regarded as stumbling blocks which seriously retard the progress of co-operative marketing.

PROSPEROUS DAYS That the United States is enjoying a period of prosperity was emphasized by the report made by Secretary of Commerce Hoover to President Coolidge. The United States is the only nation in the world showing a substantial gain in business affairs. Figures submitted by Secretary of Hoover show that the exports in March were valued at $452,000,000, imports at $385,000,000, leaving a trade balance in Uncle Sam's favor of $67,000,000. Comparison of figures showed that the export trade of the United States has increased nearly 50 per cent over that of 1914. The report also shows that the outflow of gold which started last December is continuing. Exports of the yellow metal for March amounted to $25,104,416. Against this were imports of $7,337,322. Silver exports were greater than the imports by about $1,300,000. Major Bailey, U.S.A., Visits Relatives (Continued from Page One) career and his success in the army. He is the son of Dr. G. H.

These human hives, and the city they shelter, are made able by the telephone, with tables and wires spreading floor to floor and from room. The messages they send and receive, now despatched so quietly and speedily in all directions, would require an army of messengers that could neither be mobilized nor directed. Without such a service as the telephone for the transmission of spoken messages, America's monumental business architecture would not exist, and men would still have to live and work close to the ground, instead of in the air.
