Gainesville, Fla, is Making Steady and
Substantial Progress.

Gainesville, Fla, is Making Steady and
Substantial Progress.
GAINESVILLE, FLA. Feb. 6.-It.is all very
we'll for towns to get on boom. A boom"
s all right as long as 1t lasts. but the substan-
tial. slow but sure, progress Of town is
of more benefit than all the booms that can
be raised anywhere.
Gainesville. Fla. is not only looking up,
but it is one OF those steady progressive
looks which amounts 10 great deal.
A few facts about the beautiful city is
appropriate just now, as the surrounding
country Is very much interested in a grand
land sale which is TO take place there on
Feb. 1G, II and Is. The many land owners
have decided to dispose Of property at cheap
rates as On inducement 10 bring people
among them to share their prosperity. Tne
reason Is they have more than they can
carry and continue their improvements as
they have been doing for the past several
years. They want capital to help them.
and are willing to let their property be
sold from 25 to 80 per cent. less to non-resi-
dent parties than at private sale. There
are other inducements these people offer TO
buyers to show their enterprise; among
them is th9 fact that every dollar that has
been invested IN improvements here has
been made in the county, and the county
has not dollar of Indebtedness, bonded or
otherwise. Over $500, 900 worth of proper
ty will be sold.
Gainesville is located so miles south OF
Jacksonville, Is miles south a9d about 60
miles west of st. Augustine and is on an ele-
walton of 100 feet above the level of the sea.
on the Florida Central and Peninsnlar rail-
road and south end of the Savannah, Flor
ida and Western railway, and north end Of
the Florida Southern railr ad. Three new
roads are in course Of construction and
more in contemplation.
The population of the city and additions
is about 5000. There are eight miles Of
macadamised roads and streets In and about
the city. built within the past three years
all by private enterprise.
Three orange packing houses have packed
and shipped from here As, 900 boxes during
the past season, while the entire shipment
was over 100000.
There is quite an industry in the shipping
Of vegetables. as is shown by the past sea-
son when ABS 900 packages of early vege-
tables were shipped from this point.
The firm Of II. F. Dutton alone has paid
out over $500 900 for sea island cotton dur
ing the past season.
All these advantages should be looked
into by parties who wish to settle in q pros
porous country where health aud happiness

4 BEAUTIFUL CITY.
Surrounding Lakes and Having Nag
nificent Shade Trees.

Surrounding Lakes and Having MaY-
niflcent Shade Trees.
LAKE CITY, FLA, Feb. Lake City is
worthy of its name. 1t is a beautiful little
city, surrounding several lakes. which, for
beauty, are unexcelled The city proper is
laid out in wide streets, which are lined
with elegant shade trees, and the gentle
breezes, even during mid-winter, makes
one feel contented to remain in this spring
like climate forever.
The principal attractions at Lake City,
outside of its general appearance and usual
industrial advantages, is the state agri-
cultural college, which is situated in the
southern portion Of the city, and occupies
several acres Of ground. The buildings are
modern and convenient. About l20 students
are in attendance.
The state experimental station is also here
and is well situated, having all the con-
veniences necessary for the full and CON-
plete fultillment Of this valuable adjunct to
the agricultural interests OF the state.
Lake City is the county seat of Columbia
and was settled in 1887. I5 is situated near
the center of the county. 1t has all tue
convenience for the transaction of business.
This is the market for large section of the
surrounding country for sea island cotton.
The farmers in this section have turned
their attentions to the cultivation OF rice
and tobacco. They have had their expert
ence in the raising Of cotton.
The tobacco raised around here is Of
very fiue quality. Tobacco from here re-
oeived diploma at the sub-tropical expo
sition held at Jacksonville in 1887, and also
a gold medal at the centennial at Cincin-
natl, o., in 1888.
There is no part of Florida better adapted
TO the culture of tobacco than Columbia.
Out Of l25 samples of tobacco sent to
Quincy this season the sample from this
county was selected as the best over all
competitors. g. G. Mattox received $3.50
for the product Of two acres, and F. B.
Noodle received over S400 for the product
OF two acres. This demonstrates the value
of he land in this section for the culture of
tobacco. There is a certainty Of about
/ 900 acres being planted in tobacco the
coming season.
Rice is another product that attracts the
attention Of the thrifty farmers of Colum-
bla. This year about 200 acres will be
planted. Rice culture pays. The farmers
will give cotton a wide berth this season
and devote their attention to products
which will make them more Independent.
The people of this section bave begun to
realize the fact that they have advantages
far superior 60 many other better adyer-
tised towns.

progressiveness there is scarcely an excuse
for this; yet the enterprisinR merchants
along the line Of the Savannah, Florida and
Western railroad from Dupont to Gaines
vile suffer many lnconveniences from this
fact. They want day train. There is no
mail train during the day and the merchants
are delayed in receiving their mail until
late at night, when they could get it early
in the day if train was put on to connect
with the morning south bound train at Du-

per where there is an enterprising settle
ment which Is now on a substantial boom,
and only requires proper mail service TO

the interests of this thriving little town at
heart were interviewed, and they said that
they were willing to contribute to the ex-
