The above rate is per crate on the
old rate sheet and per 100 pounds
i on the new rate sheet. This can be
easily figured out and get the amount
per crate to different places. as beans
carry a weight of 80 pounds; lettuce
! so pounds; cukes and tomatoes 40
pounds per crate; cantaloupes, 60
pounds per crate
You will see by this that canta-
loupes are soc. per crate to New
York on old rate and S1.37 per
crate by new rate: Boston, S1.05 per
crate old rate. $3.50 new rate; Bal
timore, 75c per crate old rate and
$1.26 per crate new rate. and all
other northern points carry about
the same difference in the two rates
in proportion to the amount
We will take the city of New York
for an example, as it is the most i'm
portant shipping point. Take the
new rate on cantaloupes, which is
$1.37 per crate and then take a So
market, which is about an average
market, take the express of $137
per crate, zoe. commission, sc. dray-
age, which makes a cost on the
other end of S1.62 per crate and it
will cost at least 25c. per crate to
pick and put up crate of canta-
loupes, which makes a total of $1.S7
per crate to get the fruit to market
after it is made, which leaves 13c
per crate to pay the entire cost of
making the crop, so you see by this
new rate that the small grower is
simply put out of business, as he can
not pay these high express rates and
make living. 1t also hurts the car
load shippers almost as bad as the
small growers, as the Southern Ex-
press points cannot take half of the
vegetables that are shipped by ex-
press. This will force a great many
OF the small growers that have been
shipping altogether by express, to
combine together and load cars and
ship to the large markets.
The Ocala banner. (Ocala, Marion County, Fla.) 1883-194?, 1914-02-06

This will concentrate such a great
amount of stuff in the few large
markets that can handle car loads
that these places will be gluttea
and will cause the markets to break
in these places and will leave hun
dreds of smaller markets where We
have been shipping by express bars
of all green vegetables where the
small growers have. been getting
fancy prices for their produce.
The express companies will lose an
immense amount of business. as
have talked with different people
who intended to plant small crops
and they tell me that they are not
going to plant at all unless the ex
press rates are put back like they
were, as they claim they cannot grow
vegetables and pay the high express
rates and get anything for what they
raise.
This is now the first of February
which is about planting time in this
section and with this high tariff
staring the people in the face. they
do not know what to do.
have tried to get some informa-
ton whether this rate would stand
or be rectified so the, growers would
know what to do, but have been IN
able to find out anything definite yes,
as the different express agents that
| have talked to seem to think that
this new rate will not stand. as II Is
so exorbitant that it will be utterlT
impossible for the growers to ship
anything by this rate at anything
like reasonable market and gel
anything back.
think the Marion County Board
of Trade should take this matter up
at once with the express companies
and possibly also with the National
League of Commission Merchants,
and see If it is not possible to get
some relief in this matter at once.
Yours truly.

BoSTONIANS
 OPEN HERE OCT. z,

Word has been received by Mana ger Spicket of the Orpheum, that we are to be once more favored with a visit from the Juvenile Bostonians. War conditions and the anxiety of many fond mothcres has compelled Manager Lang to bring his company of clever hddies back home from an ex- tended visit to Honolulu and the Ha- walian Island. The girls, all in their teens, have many laughable stories to tell of their experiences while at Honolulu.
 Their favorite pastime was bathing in the surf, but the fun was stopped when "Halcyon Clarke" (the young est member of the party) in an effort 10 ride a surf board, encountered a rough sea ard finished upside down with a blue eye. Patsie Henry came to the rescue. Thom Hellen, Doris Garfield. Ina Mitchell, Billie O'Niell, and MaZie Hill, tew more oI Iue principals of this popular aggregation all confess that they had very en ioyable time but are glad to be back among their friends.
 During their stay in Juneau they will present all new operas, the open ing nights bill will be "The Isle oi Spice" one of their latest comic opera successes. This will be the last time this season that the theatre goers of Juneau will have an oppor unity to see this splendid attraction as the company is booked up soltC and will finish the year with an eX tensive tour of the interior of Alaska and then back to Canada.

WELL KNOWN MINING
 MAN GOING TO VALDEZ

E. E. Flemmlng, A. T. Whitehead and Colin Murray all of whom are well known Alaska mining men who were formerly located at Nome are aboard the Northwestern enroute to Valdez for the purpose of Investigating a quartz proposition about so miles back of that place. Stewart Flem- ming. who has been with the Alaska Gastineau Mining company at Thane, joined the party and went west with them. They expect to remain up in that section until about Christmas. The property to be examined is sit uated in the Port Wells district and has had some very hattering things said about 1t.
 Recently E. E. Flemming in com. pany with c. L. Morris, formerly of Nome, made trip through the sec tion around Cook Inlet travelling oy- erland from Mile 29 on the Alaska Northern railroad to Sunrise City. Generally speaking, MT. Flemming said the country was in a prosperous and hopeful stage. Maj. L. H. French and Charles Heron, he says, have a large tract of good dredging ground which has been proven as to values and they are still extending the area of known wealth with a keystone drill. They will operate dredge on the ground next year.
 Good reports were heard while at Ship creek, from Gus Seifert's opera tions on Palmer creek, four miles from Hope. He was said to be taking out good pay and had recently paid out S13,OOO for more ground.
 Dick Dawson's outfit were doing we'll on Crow creek, tributary of Gla' cier. N. B. Solner, of the Union Saw ings and Trust company, Seattle, is interested with Mir. Dawson. They struck some more rich ground this season and are taking out good pay. This is the first good seasons opera ton that they have had since taking hold of the proposition.

LYRIC THEATRE TO SHOW
 BALKAN WAR PICTURES

DOUGLAS, Oct. 1.-Tonight and to- morrow night the Lyric theatre will show the first authentic pictures of the great Balkan war. These pictures were taken on several of the battle fields during the action and were not very vigorously censored.
 These vii probably be the only ac' tual pictures of general engagements that will ever be taken, as in the pres ent war picture machines are not all lowed at the front.
 It is expected that these pictures, shown all over the world, will be great factors in the fight for universal peace, as they show war in all its cruelty and horror.
