Only the Small Fry Compete.

Those who are watching the trend of
events and who have, during the past
ten years, had their eyes upon the
orange industry, and more especially
upon the shifting and changing systems
of marketing the crop, are at this time
enquiring where this almost yearly and
steadily decline in prices is to finally
land us and our business. And well
they might, for unless we put our
shoulders to the wheel, devise and adopt
a new system, Il better plan of diSpoSing
of our fruit, it is only question of a
very few years aud we will land high
and dry with our crafts stranded beyond
redemption.
Keen competition however, Landed
by some in this day and time is simply
industrial suicide. Tom, Dick and
Harry shipping their fir nit separately to
John, Joe and James in New York, are

A Wonderful Yield of Potatoes.

| have just finished reading an official
report of an interesting agricultural eX
pertinent carried out by a French scien-
fist during the crop season Of 1892.
This was his mode of operation. He
stepped his ''secd' cuttings for "a hours
in solution of six pounds of saltpctre,
six pounds of suIphate ammonia and %
gallons of water. He then allowed them
to dram whole day, in order that the
eye-buds might swell before planting.
From potatoes treated in this manner
and planted in the usual way he obtained
a yield of - tons to the c.-EXchange

For THE FLORIDA A G2ICUL It aIsT.
The Consignment Plan a Lottery.

The Consignment Plan Lottery.
The discussion of the marketing of or
anges in the Horticultural Society pro-
ceedings as published in the last issue of
the AGRICULTURIST, is to me very inter
esting one and one the orange growers of
Florida cannot afford to ignore.
This consignment business has always
seemed the most irrational and unbusi-
ness like of any method of business for
sane men to patronize.
The only excuse for it is that it has
that peculiar excitement of chance that
marks all such schemes as the Louisiana
Lottery the Bohemian Dat deal North, the
race track and in fact any scheme that
offers chance or uncertainty of result
The grower has, and may at times get
large returns, but if one will take the re-
suits of a season as shown by Mr.. Bean
in his report before the society for the
crops of lS9l-92 and 1928 how can he
fail to see the Importance of selling at
home. Mr.. Bean gives some hard facts
and sound reasoning in his argument and
am unable to see why men will not be con-
WINGED. The editor says in his notes that
''there were but few new points brought
out these points were none the less true
and undeniabe, for all that, and it is the
more important to keep these points,
new or old, before the thinkers of this
community. My experience as an orange
grower is much shorter than most of those
in the business, but not so short that |
cannot see the utter folly of struggling
through years warfare with insects,
going to the expense of fcrtiliZing and
laboring to make IL crop, and then ship
it to some man Ormen whom know moth
ing of, to do with as he or they see fit,
pay all freight, carriage, Storage, drayage,
repacking, commission, ETC., and gra-
ciously send me their check Tor the bal
ance.
These reliable CD commission houses
study their part well, and will make re-
turns now and then, to certain ones in
scattered sections, that pay we'll, just as
the lottery men are careful to drop prize
tickets where they will do the most good.
There is one point | should think
ought to open the eyes of growers, viz,
they get almost daily reports of the
market from these commission houses
and advces that "thc old stock is now
we'll worked off and prices of fresh stock
must go higher" But is there one time
in twenty that when the next return
comes ''thc price is down, the fruit is in
bad order just at the time your shipment
arrived and we did he bcs tive could etc %
| have so far never consigned my fruit
and am resolved, let others do as they
please, | never will cOnsign a box, but
will sell my fruit for so cents on the tree
if can do no better, before | will con-
sign. B.

DuSIly engaged IN mutually CuCGlnS each
others throat, in that through this com
petitive insanity they are materially
lowering the receipts for their goods.
Could there be devised plan mere ut
terly idotic than this? Having seen
the folly of the present system the rem
edy is not far to seek, and two words
ought to suffice in starting it, in place Of
keen competition we must have keen CO.
operation.
Over one hundred of the largest in
dustricSin the United States have by this
time eliminated the fallaciOuS, as well as
perniciOuS principle from their business
catechism; seeing that competition in Il
little while would have meant certain
bankruptcy, they simply held council
of war, decided that peace was more
profitable, acted upon this wise cOncu-
sion by pooling their interests, and as
Il consequence would now like to hire
somebody to kick them for continuing
the war ten years longer than they
ought TO have done Is it not the high
est time that the orange grower should
join the procession and follow the eX-
ample of those of greater acumen? No
one completes in these days but the
small fry, and aS a result are they not
growing smaller and more and more at
the mercy of the big fish from year to
year? And they will surely be swal-
lowed unless they adopt the methods Of
the times, fall right into line, pool their
interests by organizing, appointing or
eleCting from among their ableSt men Il
board of managers or directors and re-
spOnSiblc agents in the different markets.
Florida Fruit Exchange; enlarge it,
make it your Fruit Exchange in earnest,
make it capaciouS enough to handle the
entire four five, six or ten million boxes
and the result will astound you. The
advantages aCCruing to your industry
through means of a thorough organiza-
ton will be StupcndOuS. You can de
mand your own price and get it, too.
Transportation companies will see it to
their interest to keep on the good side of
such IN organization. You will find
them less autOcratic, more amenablC to
reason with you, and perhaps through
means of your increased power of per-
suasion you can induce them to carry
your fruit and truck to every town OF
five thousand in these United States di-
rect, or at least more so, by crcating'a
few hundred more centres Of distribu-
ton. If you don't believe that all this
will result from your organization just
ask few of those far ahead in the pro-
ccsSiOn, and if they are not afraid to tell
you the truth, they will surely Substan-
tiate everything | have said to you.-

THAT EVICTION CASE.
George Mcdonald Arrested for Bat
terry and Released on Bail.

Patrick Hussey, whose eviction from the
rooms occupied by himself and family in
the ST. Charles lodging house al the rear
of 52SB Pacific street was referred 10 in
yesterdays CALL, swore out warrant
yesterday morning against George NJ
Donald, night clerk Of the ltdging- house,
charging him with battery. Mcdonald.
not content with evictIng the family be-
cause they were slightly in arrear with
thcir rent, bored holes on Friday night In
the top of the veranda under which the
family had taken temporary shelter and
poured water on top of the sleeping chill
dren.
Police Officer Conboy says that he even
went further than that by renting the
rooms to three drunken men. who. drunk
as they were, on discovering the condition
of Hussey and his family had the manli-
ness to vacate the rooms.
The furniture of the unfortunate family
was thrown pell-mell on the broad plat
form in front of the entrance to their
rooms, and lies there exposed to the first
rain storm, unless Hussey, through the
kindness of charitably disposed people. is
able before that to remove 1t to other rooms.
Ed Holland of the Commercial Hotel
gave Hussey SO yesterday morning to help
him get provisions for his family and other
rooms, and Police Officers Conboy and
Barry gathered in few dollars for the
same purpose.
Mcdonald was arrested by Officers Con-
boy and Barry last night and was released
on $50 cash bail.

JUDGMENT WARRANTS.
The Recommendations of the Finance
Committee.

AT meeting of the Finance Committee
of the Board of Supervisors yesterday the
subject of Auditor Broderick's return of
the judgment warrants without his sigma
ture was discussed, and it was resolved to
recommend the following as the report of
the committee on the matter. The report
will be read at the next meeting of the
board:
In this matter the Auditor has no doubt been
governed by his construction OF the city's liza
bllities under legal advice, but this action does
not infringe upon or interfere with the action
of be board, which was based upon recogni-
tiOn OF the just claims OF the ciiy's creditors.
Outside of the equities, which are all in favor
OF the creditors of the city and county. the
board was compelled TO take this course, as
without supplies or material being furnished
the public institutions could not have been
maintained OF governmental duties performed
Acting, then, upon assurances OF honest and
just recognition Of all claims the creditors OF
the city and county furnished supplies and ma
terial and the board has instructed judgment TO
be confessed In all cases where the claims were
just and reasonable. At the proper time the
holders OF these judgments will have to invoke
the court TO pass upon ana determine the lla-
billty of the city and county.

HOLLY PARK ENERGY.
Matters of Interest to Its Taxpayers
Considered.

The Holly Park and Mission-street I'm.
provement Club met last night at Welsh's
Hall, Mission and Thirty third streets.
A communication was received flom
Mayor Ellert in reference to the improve.
ment of Holly Park. The Mayor has been
assured by Supervisor Day, chairman
of the Street Committee. that as soon az
the funds are available the $4,000 appro-
priated last July will be used for the pur-
pose for which it was desgDated-the
loamng and seeding of the park. Other
members of the board have also declared
them selves in favor of the speedy improve
ment of the square. The Mayor will also
do his best to further the ends Of the tax
payers.
A bitter complaint was made of the ont.
RACES by hoodlums in the ghborhood.
No police protection has yet been accorded
the district, although repeated appeals for
relief from the terr0rized citizens have
been made to the Police Department.
A petition is to be sent to the Super
visors asking that the width of sidewalk.

cent avenues and east of Mission street. tn

follows: On 60-fOot streets, 12-foct walks:
on 50-f0ot streets, 10-foot walks, and on 40
foot streets. feet. The present widths of
sidewalks on the streets were stated to he
one-fourth each of the width of the street.
leaving the driveway but one half ths
width of the street.
A committee was appointed to ascertain
whether the ordinance passed two wears
ago regarding the laying out of tracts Of
land and the dedication of streets IS still
in force. Owners of large tract of land
in the vicinity, it was stated, have failed
to deed the streets opened to the city and
are selling lots on such streets without first
having complied with the law.

sport enthusiasts, viz. the charity base

A number of carriages were on the

The track was in capital condition and

The weather up to the last race con-
tinued fine. but the fog had begun to roll
in from the Golden Gate before the bell
rang for the steeplechase, the last event ou
the prograpsme, and somewhat initiated
against anything like very accurate obse T.
vation By those who had been mainly at
trated by what is still a novel event in this
locality.
In the first race, nine-sixteenths of a
mile. the great Racine, whose first appear
ance was of the champion miller of Ameri-
ca, when he broke Ten Broeck's record
for mile on a circular track, which had
stood for twenty years, was made hot
fav0rite at TO 3, and at that price it was
like finding money.
There was a strong tip out for Bill How
ard, whose stable connections backed him
heavily for place. jim K, Joe Cotton and
Midget were all heavily supported for a
place and show at long odds. Midget

but quit badly at the end.
