THERE'S more Catarrh in this section of
the country than all other diseases put
together, and until the last few years was
supposed to be incurable. For a great
many years doctors pronounced it To-
cal disease, and prescribed local remedies,
and by constantly failing to cure with To-
cal treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be a con-
stitutional disease, and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by F. j. Cheney & Co.,
Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional
cure on the market. 1t is taken inter-
nally in doses from 10 drops to tea
spoonful. 1t acts directly on the blood
and mucous surfaces of the system. They
offer one hundred dollars for any case it
fails to cure. Send for circulars and testi-
monials. Address,

Messrs. J. P. and S. E. Moore went
pretty largely into the cabbage business
this season at their farm on Santa Fe
lake near Melrose and haYe had great
success. They planted about $4,000
plants and the cabbages are now being
marketed. They are supplying the mar
ket very largely. They get from 10 to
13 cents each for their cabbage delivered
at the railroad or steamboat station.
Such farming proves Florida to be one OF
the best agricultural States in the union.
