S. No. 1 small and medium sized heads, respectfully petition the shippers of the Rio Grande Valley to adopt those as the only stand- ard grades to be bought and ship- ped and we pledge the support of the farmers in abiding by these grades in their harvesting and marketing activities.

The advisory board of the ship- pers thereupon passed its resolu- tion recommending to their mem- bers as well as others to follow the grower's recommendations ae near- ly as possible and co-operate with them to the fullest extent. Growers were advised to cut only the best quality cabbage and have it sold before cutting. They were urged to call dealers and sell their cabbage before cutting and bring- ing it to market in order to avoid oversupply and further depression of prices. Growers at a recent meeting decided not to cut cabbage until it reached $15 a ton to the farmer. Specifications of the U.
