The long-continued drought is
beginning to raise apprehensions of

shower of last Tuesday did practic- *
ally no good, and unless there are a
copious rains within a few days, no
one can tell what the consequences ^
may be.

they were informed by wire from ! f

The efforts of the Lake City Truck

in behalf of the growers who h

ing forth their grievances and ask- t
ng speedy adjustment. The coineration
of the entire delegation I r

djustment of what the local t
rowers regard unjust and unfair
