Some of the letters went into the mail Friday night and the remainder were expected to be ready later.

The Chicago firm of McCaffrey Rogers, was named to handle sale of the products there. The local association has sold its fruit to a large extent on the Chicago market and although the tonnage for the coming season has been considerably no additional arrangements have been made in ot'ner markets. The local has made a practice of keeping offerings steadily on the Chicago auction and firmly establishing its brands, Tex-Kist and Tex-Shore. there. Not only has the tonnage already been increased over last season but additional acreage is in prospect before the season commences.

The local association was organized in 1932 and was one of the original members of the exchange. It differs from most of the exchange units in that it owns its building and plant site as well as the packing machinery. The equity in this property is nearing complete ownership, it was said. F. L.
