1t is when commons are reached,
though, that the other side of the
rosin picture is presented. There we
find that with receipts, as with spir-
its, have been abnOrmally large.
While during the past week the mar
ket ranged fairly steady, with no
great fluctuations, there continues an
uneasy feeling, an uncertainty as to
the future of these grades, which are
now so much lower than last year at
this time. The heavy receipts, espe-
cially of the very lowest grades, show
that depression in the lumber indus
try has apparently resulted in the
turning over to the naval stores work
erS of large numbers of old trees
from which only the lowest grades OF
resins can be had, and which could
only be worked profitably with labor
abundant and comparatively cheap, as
it is now. The depression in the lum-
Der industry has had a decided effect
on naval stores. AS a matter of inter
est we give below the sales of the
lower grades for the first seven weeks
Of the current year as compared with
Ia Sf vpar.

TURPENTINE MARKET

Receipts at Savannah still continue
considerably in excess of those for
this time last year, but the tendency
is toward a return to more normal
proportions. For the month to May
Is, though, there was a considerable
increase apparent, 1856 casks of
spirits against 1892 last May for the
same period, and 1864 barrels of ros-
in against 1858. For the season uD
to Friday the receipts at Savannah
were 1895 casks Of spirits, and So
055 barrels of rOsin, against 1850
casks of spirits and 4S,523 barrels of
rOSin to same date last year. JACK
sOnville, on the other hand, has al
ready got down to normal figures, its
receipts to the 14th inst. for this sea
son being 1881 casks turps and 49,
81 barrels rosin against 14,125 spirits
and 39,S4S resins for the same period
last year. The excess receipts at Sa-
vannah accordingly cannot be charg-
ed to diversion of receipts from Jack
sOnville but must be laid at the door
of the causes already given in the
Review. The general opinion, how
ever, seems to be that as to turps the
Savannah receipts will get down pref
" we'll to normal by the end of the
month; that is, that the weekly re-
ceipts will then more nearly cores
pond with those of the corresponding
week of 1907.
Conditions are not yet favorable for
improved values, although there was
a temporary squirt this week which ap-
paTently meant nothing more than an
inclination to try the market and SCI
what it would stand. The price was
advanced to Al cents. with a few bar
rels sold at 45. but was not maintain
ed even for day, and dropped back
at once to AZ ID, at which point it
was fairly we'll cleaned up by several
buyers. There is no improvement re-
ported i'm the foreign demand, and
domestic trade is not as brisk as last
year at this time, which naturally was
to be expected in view OF the changed
conditions in general business. How
ever, there is by no means a hopeless
feeling, but rather an expression of
hopeiulness that as the season moves
forward. receipts get more TO the nor
nal and trade demand brighter, val
ues will feel some stimulus.

MARTIN NEWS NOTES OF eENER.
Al INTEREST

Special Cor. Ocala Banner:
The bean truckers are not smiling
over the returns for shipments. This
year has been most unsatisfactory be
cause of the extended drOuth. From
planting till gathering there has been
only one rain. As a result the beans
have yielded less than half a crop. The
largest planters here are Martin e.
Co, Knoblock Bros, Townsend Bros,
and Veal & Co. The prospects are
that the returns will not pay for the
fertilizers used. Labor, in spite of the
talk Of hard times, has been as high
and scarce as usual. Excellent pric-
es are still being paid by the sawmiil,
naval stores and truckers of this sec.
ton.
CantalOupes are looking fairly we'll
and the prospects are that the crop,
while not giving large yield, will be
extra sweet and well favored. Two
good rains will save this crop, if they
fall in a reasonable length of time.
The largest shippers are now busy
preparing for the handling of this
crop. New sheds are being built,
packing houses are being repaired and
large forces of wOrkmen are being Or
Eanized to handle the crop with dis
patch. Most of the crop will be sent
by refrigerator cars, as express hip
ments are never satisfactory.
The melon crop has been hurt less
by the long drouth than any other
crop. However, if there is not a rain
soon, il will not be more than half as
large a yield as would be under ia
vOrable conditions. In spite of the
fact that Martin has the finest truck
ing lands in the state, this year ;
dnOuth has hurt the capital of the
truckers. Little, if any, money Will
be made.
w. NJ. KnoblOck has purchased the
mercantile business of KnoblOcE
Bros. He has clerking for him Mr..
Slack. a former employe of the A.

serving in that capacity. Mr.. Wells
has sod an interest in the business

BERMUDA ONIONS

In fact that White Bermuda onions
can be successfully raised in this sec
ton has been proven by S. B. Castle,
who sent to the News Office this weeS
six immense specimens averaging one
mound each. These were raised by
Mr.. Castle on his place on the north
edge of Fort Pierce without fertilizer
of any kind. The seeds were planted
in September and the onions matured
April Ist. This shows cOnclusively
that they can be made a paying crop,
for those sent in here are the finest
we have ever seen, and Mr.. Castle or
anyone else can produce hundreds Of
barrels just like them at q low cost
and little trouble, for there Is plenty
Of land OF the same kind awaiting
deveiopment.-Ft. Pierce News
For years there have been more or
less experiments made in growing
Bermuda onions at nearly AL the
POINTS along the lower East Coast,
and in the majority OF cases they
have been proven successful: but In
spite Of the success attained, compare
lively few onions are being grown As
a general market crop. In the vicin-
ity OF Fort Pierce there Is a large
area OF land that is especially adapted
10 growing this valuable crop. With
the almost absolute certainty OK q
crop varying from 200 10 500 bushels
TO the acre there should be- shipped
annually hundreds of car loads from
that point alone. At the Dade COua-
" Fair. for the past ten or more years
there has been annually on exhibit
as fine specimens of Bermuda onions
as were ever grown Farmers have
proven beyond a doubt thar the BermI
da onion is a money-maker In DaJ-
county. yet the acreage devoted TO its
cultivation is very limited
There are splendid openings at DIFF
erent points along the East Coast on
Florida for practical onion growers.
The editor Of the Homeseeker will be-
glad 20 correspond with practical and
successful onion growers who are f..

Yet are undecided where To- eo. The

our first trip"
The great problems of civilization.
religion, philosophy and government
in Japan, China, the Philippines. In
Ola, as well as Europe, are presented
in clear light by a great brain.
Mr.. Bryan was accompanied on this
trip by his wife and two younger chill

16 and IA, respectively. They started

the production of pales is smaller
