 It will be remembered that the H. Woods company for several years handled the entire cantaloupe output of the Mesa section. The firm was To- cated at Chicago, and there i5 reason to believe that the melon growers got fair treatment during the first three years. There was some complaint, but last year the company was given the melons as usual. The company's man ner of handling the business was con- sidered unsatisfactory, and the melon growers claim they did not get fair treatment. In fact there was little left last season for the growers by the time the company got through handling the meIons It was several weeks be- for the growers succeeded in getting their money. It transpired that the firm was bankrupt. H. Woods having gone to Europe, report said, taking with him the fortune in diamonds which Mir. Woods always wore when he came to Mesa after a contract. The company was forced into bankruptcy, and Mrs. Woods applied for a divorce. Now. the Chicago Packer announces that the company is trying to get into business again. The Packers article will be of interest to all the Mesa peo- pie. especially those who had busi- ness with the firm. The Packer says:
 This week the street was surprised to learn that plans were on foot for the H. Woods company to resume busi- ness.
