How any fair minded growers can remain outside of the organization is past finding out. If the organization shall continue to be, as it has been in the past, the leading industry of the state, if the association fails and the growers are placed at the mercy of rival commission houses to trade upon them to their detriment orange growing will become nothing more than a dim recollection of the past.

Just as he was ready to entrain for Fort Rosecranz to join the heavy artillery word was received that an armistice had been signed and later that the Huns had surrendered. W. T. Wallop, who was preparing to go to officers training school at camp Fremont, has received notice that he has been discharged. He will resume his duties as secretary of the Water company on the first of the month. Conney Mauerhan came in from the oilfields the other evening to see his family, which has recently been increased by one good-sized baby boy, which Cooney says is the best lad in town. Dr. H. A.
