rear sir; As wired you. the
Woods Melon Growers Association
has, without dissenting voice. au-
tJtrfigrI it's officers to sign contracts
with YOU for the handling Of its cam
taioupes during the season Of 1905.
As an officer and ne an individual
member Of the association 7 want to
than you for your rromptness IN max
ing returns for the thirty four cars
We shipped YOU. For all uur cars that
were sc!i in your own city Of Chi-
rpso the longest We had to wal; for
rsuittanccs from the time they were
billed out was eight days: and for
two Of the cars only six DAYS inter
yeued between the time Of shipping

I think that is a record to he proud

.rotors and not express cars
Hoping that our future business re-
iutions may be as pleasant as they
have been in the past. and again
tnnkiug YOU for the mny courtesics
