2 Finding A Mark J. Prank Fooshe, In Progressive Farmer. The continuation of making exhibits at the national and local apple expositions will go far towards calling attention to the superior quality of the apples of this state. Yet this is necessarily a slow process, for right here at home there are still not a few who really know that for several years past the "Old North Ctutn ' thrnnirh tin. mtmimhlo OX hibits prepared by Professor Hutt, has been winning some of the choicest prizes at these various expositions. But even these, however valuable they are, do nbt suffice. Nor can that indispensable aid to business, printers' Ink, as used in circulars or newspapers, complete the work. This educational process must be carried on in such a way as to attract the personal attention of both the wholesale and retail dealers. FINDING A MAKKKT OK MAKING ONE. I had just been to Savannah about the middle of September to dispose of a ear of apples consigned to me at that point and came on back to Columbia to handle a car that had been shipped to me there. I found the market glutted, so much so that I could not for several hours get a single dealer to go to the car with me, not even the two who had placed an order for a few barrels each, which were in this car. There were then on the tracks about four carloads of bulk apples from various points in this state, some from this county, and in addition there were several onr^ roiling Fiiniiv mm or the wholesale dealer* wont to the car with nio and agreed to tak" <>n<' third of tlio oar at tlio price named. It was- tlion up to nio to dispose of tho remaining two-thirds in that city or rIiii> to sonio otlior point. Put to use an ovory day expression tlioro was "nothing doing" in tho local market. Tho extreme hoat of tlio woathor and tho fact tlujt it would j bo Imposslblo to got tho oar oithor to , Charleston or Savannah In tlmo for] that wook's trado forood mo to got busy. T saw that something out of tho ordinary would have to ho dono. I wont to tiio propriotor of tho largest dopartmont storo in South Carolina, who happonod to ho woll known to mo. and told him that T wanted to pull off at his storo tho noxt day, Friday, something that would boat any bargain oountor sale ho might put on aa a drawing oard to his storo. Ho was koon to soo that tlio proposod plan at loast had tlio rodoomlng foaturo of novolty and ontorod Into it with tho spirit of making it count to Ills advantage as woll as mine. HOW MR. FOOSHE SOLD THR APPLES. Early tlio noxt morning liis iinmons' oontor show window was clean <1 out and instead of a window (lororaior arranging ia<e> mmu un-^n poods to onteh tho eye of fashion plates. there was n tho window a stranpor on to a now joh with sovoral barrels of applos, nrranpinp thoni in Just wiiatovor way scomod most oxpodient from piling thoin in pyramids and other forms to pulling back tlio barrel and lotting thorn roll out from it in such a way as to show that tho pack from top to bottom was uniform. As tho applos takon for this oxhibit had not boon solootod for this purposo tioforo shipmont and represented sovoral vnrietlos takon at random according to prailo, and tho o: foot was all the more pleasing. in order to make this exhibit of practical effort I had largo signs painted railing attention to tho fart that those applos wore grown in Haywood county. In addition I had ar ranged with the wholesale house, to which I had already sold, for the sale of tho applos from this exhibit in the following manner. Thov wore to lot tlio retail firms have tho apples at a certain price per barrel ami I was to arrange with these retailers for taking orders at a fixed price per peck to he delivered through one of the two going into this arrangement. Printed matter was distributed railing attention to the fart that those apples could he had through either of those two dealers at the price advertised. and in order to he sure that the purchasers got Just what they tn/ier. n or T i aivL' t itoi r /? ? u ll *? ? l * I filled their orders from the apples on display and had tlie firm selected l?v them to deliver the same ju t :is (f they had made the sale front their own store. The sales were limited to the peck and only one peck to the customer. In this way eleven barrels were disposed of during the day | The dealers, both wholesale and re- f tail, got their price and profit on this transaction While I was conducting j the exhibit, at this department store, the wholesale men to whom I had sold were also busy, using the adver- i tisement as a means of disposing of what he had already bought. The next morning it was a very easy matter to sell the same firm the remaining two-thirds of the car at a price very much in advance of the prevailing price for apples on that market. This fact spells the success of the said exhibit which proved roost helpful all around. ONE MISTAKE. Looking back over this experience there Is one feature that I now see was a great mistake?-one Indeed that I foresaw and would have avo tied had I been In a position to act ?'iOi full frr>fw1r?m Whlln ovnresHtncr a willingness to enter Into the proposed scheme the retail dealers wanted the full price for the apples sold at this exhibit and so It was fixed accordingly. Could an arrangement have been made with them, whereby these apples of superior quality were offered for exhibition purposes only at a price that would have caught the crowd, there would have heen sold many more than Just 11 barrels, though that was not bad for one day by the peck. K ME PING UP WITH A BIO TRADE. for the next few weeka after thia flrat exhibit the ahlpmenta wero b$iiiK ruahed upon me ao fuat by the exchange here that I had to dlapose fe. et of Making One of a car each day at a different place, necessitating my working the full day, as in almost every instance the cars were of such mixed shipments as to varieties and grades that it was impossible to dispose of the w hole car to one Arm and making for the next point by sleeper that night. It was some time after that before I was iu a position to pull off another app'e exnnm, mougu m me meantime I had decided that the policy of shipping to various places was not as satsfactory as going to one point and working from it. I selected Jacksonville, not only because the fewsales made there had turned out bettr than elsewhere, but. also on the principle that it had impressed me at that time that more distant markets from the place of growth afforded the best opportunities. I at once arranged for an exhibit at one of the tive-and-ten-cent stores, the same space being awarded to me for this purpose without charge for a period of ten days as had been occupied the week before by one of the large packing house at a cost of considerably over a hundred dollars. This display was very much more attractive than the one at Columbia had hoen, the manager and his decorator having both been very active in its arrangement. One thing, however, greatly ............1 Itu nffocl nmt that was tile morning the apples were being unloaded from tlie ear at the freight depot there were pouring into the passenger station from every portion of the state the full militia of Florida In order to take control of the street ear strike that had been declared the day before. This strike lasted for three full weeks and its cost to the dealers of that city and to producers from every section, who were making consignments of various produce to Jacksonville, can not be fully estimated.

She sent them to town by a messenger, at the name time dspatching a note to her husband, telling him to look out for the consignment. Her husband, on reaching his homo that night, SRked if the poultry had arrived.

At ' 19 Shelby Dispatch to Charlotte Observer. He A bitter controversy between Gov- Y ernor JBlease of South Carolina and SI the authorities of this state is laid bare by correspondence in regard to ca a requisition for Ernest Humphries, a young white man who is wanted in yu Cleveland county for several of- en fenses. ta Some time ago Humphries and an- th other man, llannon, were arrested m< at Grove, on the South Carolina line, an for drunkenness. They were placed mi in the town lock-up and a threat was as heard by the Grove olilcer made by Humphries that he would burn the sp lock-up before morning. Three rela- th tlves of Humphries went to his as- no sistance during the night and re- va leased the two young meu and the bo lock-up was burned, it is alleged, by co Humphries. Sheriff I). D. Wilklns tei seys he has an eye-witness to the ex burning. of llannon submitted and his recog- fe< nizance was taken for his appearance to the superior court pending the ar- R< rest of Humphrlts who escaped. Humphries lived just across the yo line in South Carolina and South a Carolina officers aided in the search pi; Ilcfore he was apprehended 011 this cli charge, however, he was arrested for T1 larceny at Gaffney and put oa the nil roads for 30 days. ha Sheriff Wilklns asked Governor w< Craig to make requisition for his re- isf turn and this Governor Craig did. Sheriff Wilkins wrote to Governor i>r lllease and asked that ho he notified N< when the matter would come up for all a hearing in order that Solicitor of Wilson or an attorney representing hu North Carolina could appear before po Governor Blouse. lie says Governor po lllease failed to let him know and wi he wrote again. In the meantime the sheriff lw 'phoned Solicitor Hill at Spartan-i ag lturg and it seems the solicitor went before the governor in the interest of Humphries and protested against $3 the requisition papers being issue< 1. SherifT Wilkins considers thnt he or the citizens of Grove, who want Humphries brought to Justice, has been charged with attempted black- | mail by Governor lllease, but he has ri\?'ii the governor as good as he I sends by the following correspondence: '? >i oi : t>c I liovernor mnasr wniw niimn Wllklns: I "Vour letter of July 14 received, in reference to one Krnest Hum- 2, phrles. I am not going to give you , this hoy. I am Informed it is all a i trumped-up charge against him. There were two arrested, botli of them drunk, and they deliberately let the other man go and now are trying to make a scapegoat out of this hoy. 50 I wish you would, therefore, please stop bothering me about this matter, for I most assuredly am not going to give him to you. They had no business to lock him up. he has done nothing to he locked up for. and I do not propose to allow a citizen of 34 my state to he blackmailed in any . tu b manner." Sheriff Wllklns' reply is: ' I "Vour insulting letter of yesterday 90 in regard to the notorious criminal, Krnest Humphries, is received. Re- 24 plv to same, I have to advise yon that ! whoever Informed you that the charges against him In this county i were trumped-up, either did not t know the facts in this case, or they > < A C.I | willing iiiid milnciousiy iiiinrciiruHcni- ?? imI the mutter.
