The market was glutted by rushing twenty-five carloads of the fruit to that city in one day and with supply so enormously in excess of demand there could be but one re- sult. Such disastrous mistakes can only be avoided in one way and that by adequate system and co-operation where the gruit is grown. Independ- ent action by the growers, the right to do as they please with their own, will not be denied in the abstract, but it is against the economic laws of these times and won’t work as a paying proposition. The Tampa Times has something to say directly in point on this subject and it is good sense worth heeding.

Trot him out, you who are grooming bim on the quiet, unless you hold it fncompatible with his hoped-for sen- atorial dignity to trot.
