The scarcity of of bean baskets pushed the growers into all sorts of expedients for supplying their needs. A little factory in which banana drums were converted into baskets was started up in the rear ot a *tore on Main street. The owners and operators of this factory are 1'hillips & Son, and it i- surprising Jo see with what speed and dexterity they tear up a drum and change it into a carrier for beans and squashes. Some shippers actually used flour barrels, and cotton sheets were hinted at. Boston may be the city of baked beans but Lake City is now the city of snap beans, and there are a lew beans to be lound at Cades too.

The hail an:l win 1 playert havoc ; with tohacco. Mr. M. A. Thomas" I suffered very much. Likewise Messrs. H. L. Whit lock's and L. | W. Matthew's and others. At < first these farmers thought they f would plough up the little that remained and plant some other crop as corn or peas-, but after consultation with experienced,) growers they decided to permit it; to remain and let it sucker out. ; In this way they will make some i five or six hundred pounds of low < grade leaf. This will bring only ( something like six cents a pound, i but even at that it will pay better than any other crop that, can be made now. Cotton stood the storm better than any other crop, being | injured but little. In some places j i t'purps and trees were blown bown. fire hail seemed fo have beent' confined to the section west and j north west of this place, No,( i damage was done in town except j by the flooding of a few houses j i Messrs.

During the; evening refreshments were served, i i consisting of ice-cream and cakes, J strawberries and cream, fruits, etc, in abundance. Loath to depart j from the scene of so much pleas- j ure t he guests lingered until 2 a.m., when good?bves were said and each went his way, cherishing ' tond memories of bright eyes of i beauty and an evening of una!- j loved happiness. * Mr. William D.
