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.

CLEVELAND'S SHERIFF'11
AND BLEASE AT OUTS1^
ItisaKreeiuK Over Extradition of
Ernest Humphries?letters Far y
From Complimentary. At

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:

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

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."

Senator Tillman Stirs Wrntli of Wo- 28
men of District of Columbia.
Washington, July 24.?When Senator
Tillman of South Carolina, who
is on a diet hy order of his physician,
declared somewhat peevishly that
"the art of frying chicken was un- 14
known in Washington," he had not
reckoned with the housewives of the
District of Columbia, many of them
Southerners and Jealous of their
ability to cook chicken in any fashion.
As a result of the aspersion in- 53
dfgnant housewives and a few score
admirers of the South Carolina
statesman hnve been Inundating him
whii i iiii nfMi. i iipv crime ?y p?rr?i
post and by messengers until each
day the senator's comm'ttee room 80
take on the appearance of a picnic
ground.
At first Senator Tillman sought to
return the gifts, hut virtually none
had the name of the donor on it, although
many contained notes defy- 7c
in* the senator to decry the fowls or
the cooking. As a result the committee
waste basket is continually
tilled with chicken hones and com- 51
mlttee clerks and senate attendants,
impressed to aid in keeping up with
the in-coming supply, are nearlng a

The New York Yacht Club re- ei
oiuled July 12, agreeing to increase al

unclng that the same principle of cc
