Mr.. Scott also suggested the rear

years of elementary work. two years
of junior high school work and four
years of high school work.
"All arts and sciences that centre in

There has been no "cold wave" to
cause the reported slump.
A telegram from one of the most
reliable men in New York City THIS
MORNING gave the following report
on the market situation there: "Mel-
ons, 25 pounds average, $3.50 to $3.50
per car; 80 pounds average, $500;
market steady"

tificial situation is being maintained
and the melon growers are not get
ting what they should for their
crops. Goodness knows, the Florida
farmers and truck growers need all
they can get out of their crops this
year and this paper wants to see
them get t.
Our advice is to look into the
market conditions for yourselves and
try to sell, without taking any
body's word for the condition and
consigning Your products to the

do not need it, but we need the
Danes" was another significant ut
terance.
The farmers of Denmark are re-
nowned for the lengths to which
they have carried the science of CO.
operative farming. and the Louisiana
banker probably knew this. He
doubtless wanted some groups of
farmers to come to that state who
would demonstrate what can be ac-
complished in farming when CO.
operation is introduced, when COM
mittee of farmers sells products Of
a section, when the buyer deals with
one farmer who represents hundred
or more. This insures fair dealing
This makes for stability of price.
This means that every farmer will
have more money with which to pay
off his obligations or to place in the
bank; and this is the kind of farm
ers that the Louisiana bankers, and
for the matter of that all other bank
ers, want to get in possession of the
vacant lands of the South and turn
them into productive farms.-Con
tributed by Secretary of the Chamber
of Commerce.

MELON GROWERS TAKE NOTICE

In the city the past three days over
'the melon market going all to
smash" and drop of over a hundred
dollars car on the melon market in

A representative of the Star who
was at the hotel in Inverness on
Thursday evening, talked with six or
eight melon buyers and they all had
this information, that the bottom
had dropped out of the market. Yes
terday, today and day before yester-
day the same reports have been cir
culated in Ocala.
Now. we know but little, techni-
cally, of the melon market, never
having bought or sold more than We
could eat at one time. We have
talked with some we'll posted people,
however, today and have seen au-
thentics kilograms from reliable men
in the north and west, and have
every reason for knowing that the
melon situation here is an artificial
one.
II Is said that the dozen or more
buyers in 0eala, when the situation
Is simmered down, there are in.
reality only a couple of them, and
they are handling the situation, or
trying TO do it, as they see fit.
