o,,dohle practice of making resolutions '

condition? 1t can be written WIN ie9'
half d 61s Little little Wo or ta ~n
ally; it is utterly impossible, in Florida,
to produce at home all you consume, but
certainly you can do more in this direc-
ton in the future than you have done in
the past; you can at least produce some
thing where you now produce nothing,
and yon can produce more this year
than you did last year, if you make up
your mind that it can be done and must
be done, and put your shoulder to the
wheel and do it.
Yes, we are aware of the fact that there
are many obstacles to overcome in the
way Of making the average soil of Flor
ida more than pay for the labor and fer
tilizer lavished upon it, but we also know
from the same kind of experience that
these obstacles can be surmounted.
The theorist and the 'boomer" writes
long and learnedly about the "possibil-
tiles of Florida soiP'; perhaps what he
says is true and perhaps it is not, but at
any rate he has done much injury to the
State by increasing the expectations of
the settler. to an abnormal state, and
when they fail to realize the aforesaid alb
normal expectations they think the
whole thing is a tizzle and a fraud. But
such is really not the case. While we do
not claim for Florida soil phenomenal
fertility and productiveness-far from it
we do claim that there is but little land
in the State that will make an orange
grove, that, with judicious cultivation,
fertilization and irrigation-mark well
the nouns and qualifying adiective-will
not produce some crop, suited, of course,
to the section in which it is located, that
will pay as we'll and better than the
staple farm crops Of the agricultural Sec
tions OF the South. This crop may be
vegetables, berries, forage, sugar cane
onions, cassava, or what not, but what
ever it may be, we believe it can be made
to pay as well as the cotton and corn o.
Mississippi, Georgia, Alabama, South
Carolina or any other of our sister
Southern States.

The Kissimmee correspondent of the
Times Union says: Kelley Bros. have
commenced operations on the rice farm,
and will get in 1900 acres next season.
Their tenement houses and barn will be
built near Fish Lake, en- the Sugar Belt
Railroad. They expect to establish their
mill in Kissim NEE, if they can secure a
place where the three railroads can run
side-tracks to the mill, and also have
lake front, so as to have direct communi-
cation with the river steamers.

IRRIGATION.

We are not surprised that the mar
row minded, tight listed statesmen If
the East should early manifest their
opposition to the project OF retaining
the arid Ian"s Of the West by extern
s;ve irrigation enterprises. The East
has always failed to recognize ths
fact that there is an Empire west OF
the Mississippi that is entitled to any
consideration. election times excepted
When a presidential election is at
hand, both political parties are anx
ious to be ''sold" on the silver ques
ton. The presidential election being
over, they don't hesitate to say, with
Henri Watterson, ''damn silver"
We are prepared to hear the same
statesmen say, "damn irrigation" an I
at the same time go on voting milions
to improve navigation on the count
less streams of the east that new,
saw bigger vessel than mud scow
They can not be made to see that the
erection OF storage reservoirs and the
construction of irrigation canals in
the West will render productive
thousands Of acres of the public
desert domain, and make homes for
thousands Of the homeless.
But the time is coming, and tina,
speedily, when the West will have a
political influence that will demand
and receive something more sub
stantial than ante election promises.
The silver question has been used
by both parties to catch votes in thu
West. We are learning little bs
the violation of promises made III
COOL faith apparently, and then
broken with impunitv. 1t will not
be surprising, if at the next presi.
dental election, the West won! d
nominate a candidate on the silver
platform. The irrigation proposition
would make good p script to the
silver platform.

NORTH DAKOIA'S POVERTY.

Governor Miller, of North Dakota,
has sent special message to the
Legislature of tina, State, asking how
the current expenditures are to be
met, and stating that the present de.
ficiency has almost reached the con.
stiu,ional limit, and the State Au-
dItor must soon stop issuing evidences
OF Indebtedness.
Now that the newly fl-dgel State
Of North Dakota, with resources far
in excess of those of Idaho, has so
soon encountered financial shoals,
would it not be prudent for the zeal.
Gus advocates Of Statehood for Idaho
to stop aud consider what would be
our financial condition were State
hood really accomplished. This agi.
ta.ion for Statehood is backed more
by pride aud political aspirants than
by true business sense. Idaho ha,
not yet got the resources to support
the luxury Of State government
Nevads's and North Dakotx's .ex
