A bill is before congress prohibiting
all speculation in fictitious farm products
and the senate is in favor of it if the
national banks are not. Now let the
house pass it without dissenting vote
and forever put stop to the speculation
In hat corn, oats, cotton and hay
products. The Legitimate dealer de-
mands justice and must have it and he
will thunder at the doors of congress
until he gets it and we hope congress-
man Mallory will see it in this light

sion in the prices of our staple crops.

Work some with Your Trains.

We are ready to admit that the average
white farmers in Middle Florida are
among the intelligent people of the state,
but they have such poor way of show
ing it; there is where one of the great
troubles lies. They need to be aroused
to their duty to their own fraternity and
the people at large. An intellectual
camp meeting ought to be held in their
midst frequently; this would arouse
them and afterwards they would not
allow their arms to do all the work.
Unprotected is a good word to define
their condition. The local dealer and the
middle man are after them with sharp
stick and it is getting so that they raise
the produce and another person sets the
price on it and they are absolutely forced
to SELL At other times no price at all
figures. Here is where the alliances miss
things, they ought to have representa-.
tives in every town to form asystematized
market.

Tobacco Growing I'm Gadsden.

After from seven to nine years expert
ence, lot of farmers in Gadsden county
tell a Times-Union reporter that ga
better quality of tobacco is expected this
year as the growers have learned from ex
perlence to grow, cut and cure the aro-
matte weed with more skill and to better
advantage than during any previous year.,
On the strength of this statement we
ask all other growers and new beginners
outside of Gadsden county to take cour-
age and keep thoroughly posted. Even
go so far us to select one or two of your
best growers in each county, who are
good of-hand takers and send them to
Gadsden county two or three times during
the growing season, and on their return
assemble the farmers at one or two points
in the county and tell what they saw
and how it is done. Send them there in
cog. and urge them to ira vel early
and late noting down everything apper-
tanning to tobacco growing
We claim that this is the best and most
feasible plan to S, cure the desired results,
far better than hiring experts from Cuba
or some other state. They may
know the lick it is done with where they
come from, but there and here are toe
different things Right here our motto
comes in again in good play: "Grow
L
and farm as they do in Georgia"

| Commence this year TO make tobaccOthe
staple crop of Middle Florida. It is found
to succeed cotton 10 great extent where
liz can he grown successfully. Il will re-
quire no more outlay. The same dixie
that plowed the cotton, and the same OK,
horse or mule that pulled that dixie will
do the same for tobacco. The price of
seed is no item of expense at all. In
some places seeds is given away. We
firmly assert and know that we have tho
soil and climate for the growth OF wrap
per tobacco, therefore we urge every in
telligent farmer to put In one acre and
care for it thoroughly.
Over $50 years before our government
was formed tobacco was grown in this
country. The early emigrants purchased
wives with its proceeds and later on their
daughters were lowered with it.
Many a farmer in Florida wrecked
from one half to three-quarters of his
hopes by not having plenty of tobacco |
plants just at the time he needed them
most.

LeakY Farming.

There are leaks on every far m and the
farther away from that farm the owner ia
the greater in number the leaks are and
the more costly they be. Transacting
other business back in some eastern or
northern state and farming at long range,
or by shiftless negro proxies, makes these
leaks, in fact it is leaky way Of doing
business. Generally speaking these farms
agent in the different towns in Florida
who oftentimes knows but little about
farming land the actions indicates that
he cares less) but can make out a cut
throat mortgage to nicely. He in turn
selects the best colored man on the farm
as boss No. 8 and he to get any work
done at all, has to select the refuse hands
that know nothing about farming worth
speaking about save chopping cotton;
and cotton goes, because there is but
precious few brains to be found to grow
other crops in an intelligent manner
Consequently there is a leak in the price of
cotton-all the profit has leaked out for
the want of intelligent farming. This
year the back yonder boss No. has
sIwrote on'' to let up on cotton somewhat
and try the FLoRIDIAN's timely sugges-
tions in reference to mixed crops and il
is highly probable that some Of the leak,
will be stopped, but not all Of them unit
more intelligence prevails on the farm.
