purpose of Incorporating it in q bill. We are not

PUBLISH THE LAWS.

people OF the State OF FLORIDA assemble
at Tallahassee, the capital, and enact
new laws and repeal or amend old ones.
This is right, and we make no objection,
except, perhaps, too many laws are en-
acted, thus crowding the statute books
and giving a too paternal phase to the
government. But what we do object to
and what we think the ordinary citizen
also objects to, is the Obscurity given
the measures enacted.
The legislature now in session will en-
act many new laws. Some of these laws
will go into effect Immediately on their
passage and approval by the governor,
others will become effective within
thirty or sixty days from their passage,
but the question is, how are the people
of Florida to be informed of the enact
ment of these laws, and if they are not
informed how can they be expected to
obey them? The law makes ignorance
no excuse. If a law is violated and the
offender pleads ignorance-says that he
did not know of the existence OF the law
he violated, the excuse will not even be
considered in the light of an extenuating
circumstances as the law holds IL to be
the duty of every citizen to post them
selves upon the laws of their country.
Now, this may be very nice in the
DRY but it is not practical or practicable.
How is the average citizen to know the
new law? Every man in Florida cannot
hang around the capitol, note book III
hand to make memorandum of the bills
as they pass. The State makes no pro-
vision for publishing the laws, except
in book form at the end Of sessions OF
the legislature. These books never fall
into the hands of those most interested
the people. The lawyers and the Off
cias are the only ones who see them.
1t seems to us if the law makers wish
the laws Obeyed they should inform the
people of their passage. This can only
be done by advertising them in the press
of the State.
Every law enacted by the Legislature
of a general character should be adVer-
tised in at least one paper in each county
of the State. Our law makers may
plead econOmy-they may say the eX-
pense will be too great. But it is the
poorest of poor economy to pass laws and
not enforce them and have them Obeyed
by the people, And on the other hand
it is an injustice to the people to punish
them for disObeying law the existence
of which they were ignorant.
We do not claim that every bill passed
by the legislature should be published,
and advertised in this manner. 1t would
be unnecessary to do this Many bills
are local ones and these, if published at
ALL need only be published in the coun-
ties affected by the bill.
We are of the opinion that bill was
introduced in the legislature during the
early days of the session, providing for
advertising the new laws in the newspa-
Ders. What became of this bill we do
not know. The Legislators doubtless
killed it in one Of their economic par
oxyisms with which they have been

A soon us we found ourselves within

and passing under q huge arch made of
russell oranges we stood within the space
allotted to Florida. A cOcoanut tree with
ripe fruit stands in the center and its
graceful leaves spread out over the
throng as they pass by. Scattered
around on the benches were a few plates
of oranges and pOtplants from the Ponce

space was occupied, and we felt u sense
of shame and modification to think that
we lived in a State. producing such q va

favor of other forage plants-admitting
that the plant is a fruitful cause of an
guillula, etc. the fact remains that there is
no plant that can be grown in Florida
mon cow pea. We do not say it should
be planted in the orange grove or the
peach orchard, but land is as yet so
cheap in almost every section of Florida.
that few acres could well be de-
voted to this crop. OF course in
time succession would be necessary
and desirable, and in this event the land
on which the peas had been planted
could be used for some other crop, and
it would be found none the worse for
having pea vines turned in the soil from
year to year. Another tract of land
could then be devoted to the pea and
when change became necessary the
first plot could again be used.
There are now but few places in the
South where the cow pea is not fully ap-
w
half a chance it provides food for both
man and beast and aids very materially
in recuperating worn out soil. The
analysis of the pea establishes beyond
doubt it's valuable properties for stock
and for exhausted soil or soil that is not
exhausted but naturally unfertile.
The analysis shows its richness in potash,
lime and phOsphOric acid-all impor-
tant elements of plant life-and it also
contains considerable soda, magnesium
and sulphuric acid.
A great many who have tried the pea
vine for hay express dissatisfaction, but
this must be because the vines were i'm
properly cured. When the same care
and attention is given to the vines as is
given to other kinds of hay the results
must certainly be satisfactory.
An excellent plan is to sow the seed at
the beginning of the rainy season, or as
soon as there is sufficient moisture in the
ground to make the pea terminate rap
idly. The frequent rains Of summer
will induce rapid growth and a good
crop. When the pods are well filled, but
before they have ripened, iscthe time to
commence harvesting. OF course a sea-
son of few showers should be selected for
this work, as it is necessary for the vines
to be- thoroughly dry before they are
stored away in the barns or pens. The
plan of packing them down with salt af-
ter they have been exposed to the sun for
one day and only become Wilted, has not
been satisfactory, and the hay mOulds
and becomes musty.
The vines can either be pulled up by
theToots or cut with sharp hoe or scythe.
The best plan is to plant in drills and
cut with a hoe. If this plan is followed
and the cutting is done early the roots
will shoot up more vines which before
frost nips them will attain considerable
size and can be turned under for the
benefit of the soil.
OSOme growers stack the vines between
poles set in the ground few feet apart
and six or eight feet high. This is I'M
necessary trouble. The vines will be
cured if left in windows for one dav

Sung Himself,

A good story has been allowed to liz
around for q month without giving 1t to the
public, and the Pendleton Tribune considers
1t to good to keep. 1t appears that citi-
zen of Pendleton had loaned 500 to his
father, taking note for the amount. The
father resided in New York state. The
aforesaid citizen sent tho note back east to
attorneys. instructin9 them to sue his father
and remit. In the meantime, the old gem
tleman died, leaving all his property to the
citizen. The attorneys said nothing, en-
tered suit against the estate, ran up the
charges and took the costs out of the resi-
due of the estate. This amounted to the
citizen suing himself on a note due himself.
instructing the attorneys to enter suit
against himself, securing judgment against
himself for the debt and costs against him
self and payIng to himself the whole
amount. If any one. can beat this record of
brilliant financial engineering, let him speak
or forever after hold his peace.
