HOW CocoANUTs ARE BOUGHT.
Loaded Loose and Put In Sacks on
the Wharf.
From the New York Sun.

From the New York Sun.
Cocoanuts are loaded in the hold of a
vessel in bulk. Upon their discharge here
they are sacked, for greater convenience
in handling and shipment. This work,
which involves sorting the nuts as to size
and separating the sound from the I'M
sound, is done on the wharf alongide the
vessel.
When the matches have been taken off
men get into the vessels hold with bushel
baskets, which they hll with cocoanuts,
These baskets of nut are handed up
over the hatch coaming and passed along
across the deck and over the rail and
onto the wharf, where they are set up
on a box of convenient hight, beside
which stand the ounters-some times two,
but oftener three all experts at sorting
and counting cocoanuts. The three men
stand side by side on the side Of the box
toward the vessel and on the other side
stands a man holding a sack with mouth
open. into which the nuts are thrown as
they are counted.
Back of the counters, against the string
piece of the wharf, are baskets into which
the culls are thrown; these include the
smaller nuts, cracked nuts and sprouts,
which are nuts that have begun to sprout.
Cocoanuts are put up in sacks containing
100 large nuts and 100 smaller nuts. The
smaller nuts thrown aside in the sorting
and counting are from time to time taken
away by other men and sacked. These are
sound nuts but they bring a lower price
on account of their size. The cracked nuts
and the sprouts would rot soon if they
were not used and these are kept apart
and sold cheap for quick consumption.
The counters do nothing but sort and
count; they never touch a basket. When
a basket has been emptied another man
pulls it off the box and sets a full basket
IN its place. There is always at least one
basket of nuts on the box; there are usu-
ally more than one, so that the sorting
and counting go on constantly. Each
counter picks up two nuts at once, one in
each hand, and all three counters toss
nuts into the same bag, but there IS never
any confusion in the count. Two nuts are
counted one, for convenience In keeping
tally, and when the three men have count
ed UP fifty the man holding the bag, now
containing 100 nuts, drags il away and
another man takes his place with an
empty bag and the counters begin again.

up number of barrels of flour into bread
IN a night. Fortune smiled on him with
out cessation. And after it was all over
and he had counted up the profits he
found that he was about. $1,000 richer
than when he conceived the idea of TAX
ing all the flour he could carry. The bak-
cry had proved a gold mine. But the vein
was exhausted in one season and similar
conditions have never come again.
Old residents of Savannah will remem-
Der when bread was so high that to poor
people it was a luxury rather than a ne
cessity. There were times then when the
public murmured against the small size
OF the lOaVes, just as it is inclined to re-
bel at times now. Those were also days
when the public stil believed it right 10
regulate private business to the extent of
saying how much bread a baker should
give for a certain sum of money and fore
ing him TO limit his profits by fear of
hnes. And so it came about
that the bakers struck and the novel
sight was seen of an industry closing
down because the law tried 70 sell so
much of its product for so much money.
Never before and never since has just
such state of affairs been seen.
The quantity of dough that was to go
into each and every loaf was laid down
for the bakers. They insisted that TO do
as was asked of them meant to operate
and detied the authorities. A page or two
of the names of bakers soon adorned the
information docket of Police Court. But
the bakers were not to be intimidated
Rather than make and sell bread at a loss
they would not make bread at all. So the
word went forth, and one morning the
town awakened to find no breakfast rolls
or fresh bread at the doors. The fires
had been drawn from the ovens, the shut
tiers put up to the shop windows, and
the bakers had gone on a strike against
the public and its demands.
There was a new grievance on the part
of the public, now The convenience of
the bakeshop had not before been fully
appreciated. Some bread came over from
Charleston, but when could any other
town, even Charleston, meet the demand
for fresh rolls at Z o'clock in the morn
ing one hundred miles away
Something had to be done to bring the
bakers to their senses. So some public
spirited gentlemen went down into their
pockets and started a bake shop. At Lib
erty and Habersham streets two ovens

creed into running their business either at
a loss or at just such a profit as the city
officers might see fit TO permit The
kneading troughs were once more filed
with nutritive dough, the ovens ran up
to red heat, and the load was lifted from
the heart of the houskeeper. Breakfast
