Farmers Needed.

Taken all in all, the year round, Flor
ida is delightful country in which to
live. The climate is all that could be de-
sired. The winters, as general thing.
are warm and balmY, while the summers
are cool. Statistics show that the death
rate in Florida is lower than in any other
State in the Union, hence it may truth
fully be called healthy country. Those
who live by tillin2 the soilfnd work light,
seasons good and the result Of their la
bors a bountiful harvest. 1t is known the
world over as a great fruit producing
country and many fortunes have been
made in this industry, but bne thing is
needful to make it truly great State in
point OF wealth and the eindependenceofits
inhabitants; that is careful attention to
it's agricultural interests. These interests
in the main, and especially in South Flor
ida, have been neglected. Years ago, before
the country was settled up by the incom-
ing immigrant, and before railroads and
steamboat lines provided easy transpor-
tation, when the few goods that were
brought in from the cite es were hauled for
long miles by oxen and mule teams, the
farmers produced every thing they con
sumed. No department. of the farm was
neglected; COWS, hogs, horses and all stock
were sleek and fat, cOrn-cribs were well
were anything but empty. The people
livedhappily and Jared dsumptuously every
day The farmer 'FIived athome'' andwas
contented with his lot True, there was
not much money in the country,-there
was but little need for money There was
enough, however, to meet all the neces-
sarY expenses. Hard times were unheard
of and mortgages on the county records
were curiosity. The same happy con-
dition may be enjoyed to-day, and that
too with innumerable advantages added
that could not be had in the early days
of the country. But, before it is brought
about, there must be a radical change in
the management of the farm. The eX-
ample set by the old time farmers ofSouth
l. AOIlOI ptOnUC1 Ny I1FCly
article necessary for home consumption
must be raised. Less attention must be
paid to the price currents of the North and
West on hay, grain and pork, and the
farm proper must not be neglected for the
orange grove. Pay attention to the grove,
of course, because it will prove an un-
breakable bank to you, but while it is
coming on, do not neglect the farm. Flor
ida's future, in our opinion, depends on
the fostering of it's agricultural interests
Disregard these and the bulwark of pros
perity for the State will be destroyed
In conclusion, we are happy to state
that there are a number of farmers, in the
fullest sense of the. term, in this immedi-
ate section of country, who are improv-
ing their financial condition every yearby
paying careful attention to their places;
and the number is on the increase Let all
follow their example, and, in few years,
our country will be more prosperous than
was ever known before.-Leesburg Com

greater by far than ever done before in the
history of the place. The receipts of the in

place, was found dead in the field on
Tuesday morning last, some miscreant
