keeps spectators on their feet every
second, with four points the greatest
distance that separated the two

the last two years have hit the grow
ers Of this section only adds to their
enthusiasm to plant heavier acreages
and the present outlook is that the
heaviest acreage ever planted in Hast
ings will be grown this year. Many
estimates have been made as to the
number of acres probable but the
fact that practically every foot of po-
tato land available has been taken for
this industry is indicative that the
planting will be something more than
ordinary.

Jacksonville, Fla, Nov 18.-Possi-

the shipping season has the Florida
citrus fruit deal shown brighter out
look than now. There Is good crop
to begin with. October weather while i
hot and while it stopped the fruit
from coloring, only gave the fruit that
much more time to develop sugar con-
tent and now 1T is said by those who
should know that with a few cold
nights, Florida will begin shipping the
sweetest and best colored fruit in its
history. 1t is pointed out that during
the curtailed shipping period of the
best few weeks, labor troubles, which
might have had decided bearish eff
feet on the market had full move
ment been on, have to great extern
cleared up.
1t therefore seems that with few
cold November days which are sure
TO come, Florida will begin heavy
movement of oranges and moderate
movement of grapefruit at a time
when the consuming public is the
most ready to buy
Il has been pointed out by those
who have made thorough study Of
the situation that the present crop 81
fruit has cost the grower around $15C
per box.
So far, the crop as IL hangs on the
trees, is in as fine condition as was
any crop ever grown in Florida. There
has been no disaster of any kind any
where in the state. The old groves
are this year in full bearing and thu
young groves have a heavy crop con
sidering the age of the trees. Rail
road companies say that they ar
ready to take care Of the movemen
