FLORIDA LETTUCE.

In summary of the lettuce situation in Flor
ida lettuce, as usual is confined mostly to four
selections of the State; the Sanford Section in
Semiole County, the Winter Garden Section in
the adjoining County of Orange, the Manatee
County Section centered about Palmetto and
the Gainesville Section in Alachua and Marion
counties. Shipments began in November with
the first cars from Sanford on November ID.
Heavy movement at this point was reached early
in December and while planting is still under way
at Sanford, considerably over one-half of the to-
tai crop has been moved. Manatee County
moved the first car November 20, but the per-
Icentage of early lettuce is much smaller and the
bulk of the crop will move in January and Feb
ruary. AT Winter Garden a few cars moved in
December, but most of the crop will be moved
after January 10. In the Gainesville Sectio
much of the seed is not yet in the beds. There
will be slight movement in February, but the
heaviest movement will be between March Is
and April Is. Shipments made usually in
one and one-half bushel hampers, with an aver
age load Of about 400 to the car Owing to the
unusually warm weather of November and De-
| cember, seeding has been prevalent and yields
| light. The average to date has probably been
over 400 crates per acre, but under ordinary con-
ditions the yield should be from 500 to $50 per
acre.
1t is an entirely mistaken idea that lettuce can
not be raised in West Florida, and compete with
lettuce grown in the southern section of the
state. AS far north as Fayetteville, North Car
DINA, lettuce is grown as one of the profitable
crops of the Cape Fear section. This lettuce is
of the finest quality and brings splendid prices,
and there is no reason in the world why lettuce
may not be grown here, if protected from the
weather

PACKER AND PUBLIC.

The fact that fvelarge Chicago packers COM
pletely dominate all supplies Of meats moving
from the producing districts through the great
markets to the ever-increasing city and indus
trial populations remains indisputable and has
been confirmed by the Investigations and reports
of the Federal Government.
The accumulated tolls levied upon this traffic
and charged to producers and consumers alike
are now measured by the hundreds Of millions
of dollars. The economic power represented by
this waelth, one supplementing the other, draws
within its sphere and ultimately swallows a sue
cession of one-time competing interests, small
packers, independent butchers, stockyards, spe-
cial car lines, cold storage facilities, cattle loan
banks, trade papers, canneries and other mark
citing facilities. The control Of the market is &C
complished by the control Of the very instru-
ments by which marketing is carried on.
It is to meet this situation that the recommen-
dations of the Federal Trade Commission are di-
rected. These recommendations have been wide
ly misrepresened. They are not radical. They
are not as radical as many have expected and adj
vocated They do not propose that the Federal
Government take over and operate the packing
houses and the entire distributing system They
propose merely that the istruments and agencies
of monopoly shall be taken out of the control OF
those who would profit by monopoly. These
agencies are the private stock and refrigerated
car lines the stockyards and refrigerated stor-
age terminals in the great cities. These recon-
mendatons have been considered by many farm
ers and producers organizations and have been
approved by every such organization that has
yet considered them. Their adoption will in no
way lessen the manufacturing efficiency of the
packers nor their utilization of animal by prod
ucts. Nevertheless, it must be clearly recog-
nized that efficiency is not the issue. Even if it
were, is it like that the highest degree of eff
cheney either has been or can in the future be
maintained in industry which has real
competition and where control of management
goes so largely by inheritance?
The President has well said "It is obvious
that there will be no sufficient incentive to
| to enlarge production if there does not
exist an unobstructed and economical system Of
distribution Unjustifable fluctuations in prices
are not merely demorazing; they inevitably det-
er adequate production" If effective competi-
ton does not exist and If monopoly is not effec-
rectly result to the injury of the consumer.

will be to the effect that all the rights
and privileges conferred upon Japan
in Chinese territory under the treaty
must be restored to China within one
year. 1t is believed this amendment
will have better chance of passing
than the amendment recently defeat
ed in the Senate, inasmuch as 1t mere
ly fixes the time within which Japan
must fulfill her promise to return
Shantung to China. The President
has stated affirmatively that he trusts
Japan in her promise to give Shan
tung back to China, and for this rea-
son it is not believed there will be
much objection to an amendment
merely stating the time in which the
promise must be lived up to.

TO RETURN FALLEN
Heroes FOR BURIAL
$50, 900, 900 Asked To Re.

French Fields -

! Washington, Oct. 23.-Fifty mil
lions of dollars for the removal of
American heroes of the war with Ger
many from the soil of France to that
of the United States is proposed in a
bill introduced in the House by Rep
resentative Oscar +. Bland, of India
ma. In explanation of his measure,
Mr.. Bland said:
81 want to call your attention to a
condition that prevails with refer
ence to the removal and re-burial of
, our dead heroes in France. Recent
ly the subcommittee on Foreign At
fairs of the Select Committee on Ex-
penditures in the War Department
made investigation and collected data
concerning the whole situation in
France. We found that the Ameri-
can dead there were buried in S29
cemeteries and that there were 49,
31S gravs. These are all identified
but probably about 1900 of these
are being identified slowly as new
facts and evidence come in. In the
month of August, they identified $50
graves. The Graves Registration
Service in France, which is an army
it is the best thing to do to cOncen-
trate all these graves into one or more
magnificent cemeteries in France. and
think they are of the impression
that such action will soon be taken
in Congress, so as to start them on
their work of concentrating these
graves. They stated to our commit
tee that they were waiting now for
definite policy to be declared before
beginning concentration. l think this
is the proper thing for them to do
in view of the fact that II would be
a tremendous amount of trouble and
expense to re-inter these bodies i'll
France and later take them up and
move them to America.
There are the graves of 4,500.00O
people who fell in this war, now sleep
ing in French soil. More than half of
these are French. They fear an at
tempt on the part of America to re-
move these bodies, which would re-
suit in enormous economic loss to
France. Besides, the future pilgri-
images of American parents and rela-
tives to the graves of their fallen he
roes in France is not entirely objec-
tionable to the Frenchman. France
is naturally haven for tourists and
the French reap a great harvest from
the tourists. There is not the same
necessity for the removal of French
bodies as there is for the removal of
Amrican bodies. The French soldier
is sleeping in his own soil. The Re-
public is small and the parents can
quickly go to the grave of their sons.
1t is otherwise with American par
ents."

FOR WHEAT
CROP VIRTUALLY ENDED

The prospecs for a wheat crop of
any consequence. in Ohio county, are
virtually blighted. The excessive dry
seasos prevented any preparation for
sowing, up to IS or 20 days ago, since
which date the rains have not ceased
a sufficient length of time to permit
of the preparation of the grouSd for
sowing. The season will be so late
before there is any possible chance to
properly work the soil, farmers will
not likely risk the sowing of good
s2.25 or $3.50 seed wheat, when
prospects for returns appear SO un-
certain.

ENORMOUS LOSSES DUE
TO CONTINUED RAINS

Great damage has been done by the
excessive, or rather by continued wet
weather. Farmers in the County
had only begun to harvest the soy
bean crop. and hundreds of acres of
cow peas were also unharvested when
the rains began to fall about Is days
ago, since which date no weather of
any/consequence has been fair enough
to cure these crops.
V. c. Elgin and Black & Barrass
are perhaps the heaviest loosers in
this immediate section. Mr.. Elgin
had his entire crop, of 80 acres or
more cut when the rainy weather set
in, and it is estimated, at the very
lowest his loss will be, to say moth
ing of the hay, approximately $2,-
900, while Black and Barrass will
sustain a loss of that sum, of, not
more, by loss of beans alone. 1t is
claimed that the hay would have
more than paid all expenses includ-
ing rent for land, cultivation, ~har-
vesting and threshing of the beans.
Hence the total loss to the two grow
ers mentioned, will amount to at least
$2,5O0 each.
