These buyers aro those who +o not live or own any property or sections where they buy their crops The Horticulturist claims that tens •f thoueands of dollars are lost annuall throughout Canada,! by the frandulen methods practised by these buyers. Tl e first year they buy a few thousand bar els in one section, and pay cash for the thereby establishing reputation with = any growers, as re- sponsible buyers. The following year, they take advanta•0 of this reputation to contract for la e quantities of fruit, but do not pay for t, putting the growers off with one exuu-: or another. When some growers are spicious, and demand payment, they pa immediately, but in the majority of c ses, they manage to ship the fruit out of the section without paying for it. L, ter they tell growers tales of losses an • say they are unable to pay the full va • e of their fruit and offer to settle at • 0 to 30 cents on the dollar. Grower•. are advised by The Horticulturist wh .n dealing with buyers they are not tho • • ghly acquainted with to demand securi ' for their fruit, or only deal with to al buyers who have property at stake in the community. One of the best s.othods of avoiding danger of this hint has been for growers to co-operate and deal directly with large wholesale bu ers. The case of the Ontario buyer wh • two years ago de- frauded the fr • it growers of the Annapolis Valle in Nova Scotia out of $30,000 to $40,000 worth of fruit is mentioned.
