given much thought to the aubjeCt of
the best way of not only insuring
the perpetuation of that organisation,
but of Infusing the people generally
with enthusiasm In the work it might
be called upon to accomplish, and from
my cogitations upon It I am convinced
that the plan I have In mind wlll.solve
the problem and make our future
sure.
“It Is a business proposition, and a
definite one. and from the practical
reasons Mr. Swaty will put before th*
League this evening it will be shown
at once that the plan will be a profita-
ble one. It fs the establishing of an
experimental farm. Careful estimates
made on the basis of a farm of 100
acres warrant the statement that a
farm such as that can be operated on
a capitalisation of from *2000 to *5000.

successful practical experience In the

FRUIT AND TRUCK MEETING.
Secretary Bretachnclder’a Official Re-
port of Last Week’s Meeting.
The attendance at our meeting Sat-
urday, September 3, was small, but
th re was a quorum present to trans-
act business. The meeting was called
to order by President Saunders at 3
p. m.

read and approved.
The-secretary then read several let-
ters from Mr. A. V. Swaty. horticul-
tural agent of the Kansas City South-
ern railway, and Mr. W. G. Field, gen-
eral manager of the South Teqas
Fruit and Truck Growers’ exchange,
In regard to attending some of our
regular meetings. No exact date has
been set for the visit of these gentle-
men. It being thought best to corre-
spond further with them and aet the
date some time in advance, so that all
parties Interested may make prepara-
tions to be present at the meetings.
It was decided that our association
should become a member of the South
Texas Fruit and Truck Growers’ ex-
change: all that is necessary for our
association to do in order to share in
the benefits of the exchange being to
purchase one share of Its capital stock
at $5. It was moved, seconded and
carried that the same be paid out of
the moneys collected on quarerly duea
and application for this share of stock
to go forward as soon as possible.
There will be no Initiation fee or quar-
terly dues connected with membership
In this exchange.

WHIRLIGIG OF TIME
Gets Around With Revenge* for Our
Agricultural Editor.
“I have often beard ’em aay that the
whirligig of time brings its revenges,”
said the agricultural editor of the Tri-
bune. ”11 don’t know what the whirli-
gig of time is, but/I guess it must have
got around here with a revenge or two.
For instance, you remember, maybe,
when I went out to shoot against the
crack shots of the Orange Gun club,
a few weeks ago, and made the un-
equalled score of one hit out of a pos-
sible fifty—time they presented me
with the prise head of cabbage. Re-
member it don’t you? Thought qo.
Well, I’ve been lying back and letting
’em laugh and make merry. They
didn’t know I made that score Just to
add to the gaiety of things here end

Everything was in good working order
except that the election of a princi-
pal for the High school was yet in
abeyance, and this served to compli-
cate and delay matters. Superintend-
ent Foster was In a dilemma, but he
was helped out of it by Miss Carrie
Barnwell, a former member of the
faculty, who kindly volunteered to as-
sist him In the work of the eighth and
ninth grades until the end of the week,
by which time it Is understood & prin-
cipal will have been elected or an elec-
tion for one provided for. Miss Bard-
well is a member of the faculty of the
Beaumont public schools and will as-
sume her duties there next Monday.
The assignment of teachers and the
enrollment by grades on the first day
were as follows:
Henderson 8treet School.
S. B. Foster, superintendent, and
investment will be more than 100 per
cent. That, of course, is dependent
uoon the assumption that the man-
agement of the farm shall be in the
hands of an experienced and practical
farmer. Moreover, the successful op-
eration of such an institution In Or-
ange county would afford the farmers
generally opportunity for consultation
with Its management as to the best
methods to ado^t in the raising of
their individual crops, thus profiting
by exnert knowledge on the important
subject.
“Beside*, th* putting In form and
operation of a farm such as this
would be an object lesson to visfHng
agriculturists or farmers looking for
a place to engage In truck farming—
n place for the League to show to
them as Indubitable evidence of what
can be dime with Orange county soil
by Intelligent and energetic work. The
railroad emigrant and land agents
would not be long In discovering the
importance of such an exhibit as that
to ca’l the attention of settler*, to to
their looking around for farms.”
Mr. Dickensheets then introduced
Mr. A. V. Swaty, horticultural agent of
the Kansas City Southern railway
who In well chosen words and to the
point showed he entire practicability
of the experimental farm plan, ndt
only as a profitable investment di-
rectly to those Interested in estab-
lishing It, hut as an example to the
termer at Iqrge. and one beyond gain-
saying. of what the great possibilities
of truck terming sre in tkls section—
an example the ultimate result of
which to the general advantage of
the county and city would be incalcu-
lably beneficial.
Those present were so favorably im
pressed with the outline of the ex-
perimental term plan that George W.

to the total of receipts Is not an Indl
cation of the volume of sales, as a
large portion of It has been sent here
to store.
There Is a diversity of opinion as to
the future of the market, the more op-
timistic claiming that in view of the
strong position at primary points, the
prices are sure to advance: while the
pessimist quotes the abundant crop
in sight, to which must be added the
large amount carried over as a result
of the low range of value*.
There Is still another class that
deem the market safe for large opera-
tions on the "nimble sixpence” basis
(avoiding the practice of the specula-
tor who holds for higher prices, and
those who stay out of business for fear
the market is not at Its lowes tpoint);
they buy freely and sell-promptly,
and. carrying but little stoclc. can af-
ford to follow the market, be It up or
