CHAFFEE MEN HEAR ABOUT AVACADOS The rapidly growing interest in advocados was manifested when over 150 Chaffee managers listened to the manager of the California Avacado Growers' Exchange discuss the different varieties and properties of avacados. In spite of the increased production of avacados the price remains fairly steady because of the public realization of the food value of this fruit, but at this time of the year prices are lower than at any other time. Avacados are grouped into three general races: West India, Guatemalan and Mexican. Florida provides the West Indian fruit of large size and shiny green appearance in season during the late summer and fall. Guatemalan varieties of large size, thick skin and varied colors from green to black make up the bulk of California production and are in season the year around. The Mexican varieties grown locally, are small, thin skinned fruit of excellent flavor in season during the fall months only. The Chaffee Stores are now featuring avacados of the Mexican type and are, through popular prices, acquainting the public with them. Each store has on hand for distribution avacado recipes provided by the Avacado Exchange. keynotes sounded by the oil scandal investigator. The Armory was packed to capacity by an audience of more than 3000 and Sen. Wheeler was forced to halt his address at frequent intervals by storms of applause.
