be freely used in all parts of the city during
the next two months. Every Stagnant pool of
water within the corporate limits should be
either filed up or thoroughly drained. Our
citizens cannot afford to extend an invitation
to yellow fever or any other kind of fever.
Clean upland keep your premises in a sani-
tary condition.
Apalachieola Times: What we need Just
now is free and unlimited confidence in the
ability and wisdom of this great country to
deal rightly with the financial question and
to keep every dollar of its money on an equal
ity with the best in the world and an imme-
dlate increase and distribution of the per
capita of that confidence wherever it is lack
ing. 1t is the best circulating medium ia the
world.
Pensacola Daily News: The scare is now
over and the sooner we forget it the better.
We cannot recover from its effect 10y drawing
lessons from experience" and too many, are
growing hungry in Pensacola to justify us in
looking backwards. The financial stringency
was bad enough-the scare is worse and 1t
Will take US long time and much labor to
set us on our feet again. Let's quit talking
and go to work.
Lake City Tobacco Plant: w T. Kelly, one Of
our most successful local tobacco growers, has
just stripped and weighed $50 pounds of line
cigar leaf as the product of one a acre piece.
Some OF his crop is even better than this and
Will probably yield nearly q ton to the acre,
which demonstrates that we can get quantity
as well as quality from our lands and their
unrivaled product. Stripping is progressing
generally now, and the crop Of 1892 is being
rapidly prepared for market.
Fort White Boomer: 1t is about time
something was being done in regard to
bridging Of the Santa Fe and Itchatueknee
river between this and Alachua and Suwan-
nee counties. A bridge over the Santa Fe
somewhere near knights Ferry would draw
very large trade from Alachua county to
Fort White, the nearest and best market
for large number Of good people living not o
great way from the river in Alachua. Such
IS the casein lower Suwannee. A bridge over
the itehanucAnee would bring us large trade
and prove benefit to large number Of good
people.
Ocala Capitol: The soldiers and visitors
We're charmed with the city the people and
the beautiful camp that had been prepared
for them. They came, many Of them ex-
pectlng to see one.hOrse town inhabited by
twofor a-nlekel people, the streets dimly
ng ntea with kerosene lamps, etc, but in
stead they found little giant, inhabited by
energetic, public-spirited citizens electric
lights, street cars, water works, q magnih-
cent swimming pool, and many other things
they did not expect to ind and best of an,
they learned that Ocalas hospitality Is one
OF her leading characteristics When the
time came to depart, their adieus were min
gled with praise and thanks, and this. In
itself, VIII be of inestlmable benefit to our
city In the days to come. All in an, the en-
campment viii be u lasting and beneficial ad-
vertisement whose worth cannot be com
puted in dollars and cents
Umatilla Progress: A grand opportunity
Tor some wide awake man who understands
the canning business This is a much needed
industry at Umatilla The field is large pro
lie. canning factory established here
would he OF great benefit to the public ana a
money coiner TO the operator, as there are
Irulls and vegetables to be canned every
uAOHHN IN the year The vast QnaOTifV ~ In.
matoas that are wasted yearly and LEFT in the
neia 70 rot after the season Tor shipping
could ne utilized. This alone would amount
y thousands OF dollars every season. besides
Inc great quantities Of other vegetables and
fruits which are allowed to waste on account
OF there being no means by which they can
1e saved. There is d home market here in
tlorida for ali kinds of canned goods and the
people would be glad TO buy their own Florida
canned vegetables IN preference to any other,
we believe the people would sufficiently en-
courage any man or company who under
stands the business thoroughly to warrant
them success in coming here.
