The rumour bas assumed Such proportions as to a) ke that options to buy have been secured on certain properties, pending development of the activities of th Jinaica Producers Association and the Irrigation scheme before the country, Cane farmers who own small eages, which are only adaptable to the growing of canes are Very Duch concerned over the Naturally the small case cultivators feel that with the acquisition of the estates to wbich they sell their capes, and the operation of which would surely be discontiued in favour of banana plantiog, there would be DO ou let for their canes.

But there is an aber phase of th question. How would the advent of the Voited Fruit Co.
affect the economic situatioa that exist in those parts Would it not have a beneficial effect in the development of the parish as a whole, wbereby the acute labour problem would be solved. and money put into circulation? As matter of fact, the other section of the community desires the entry of any company who would, if the irrigation project falls ha through, procure and irrigate these parched but fertile areas tbemselves rather than allow them to remain as they are at prest ni.
It is believed that the only obstacle in the path is the price for these properties, and it is only a matter of time before a decision will be arrived at. Aca even if the irrigation scheme should not go througb, the company buying the lands wonla certainly embark on that scheme tbemselves. Developments eagerly watched.
The United Fruit Co. ls re ported to be negotiatiog for the purchase of acoiber large property in St. Tbomas for the planting of bapapas.
