Cotton in Volusia County.

Mr.. w. P. Edwards brought to the
News office, last Saturday, a boil Of as
fine short staple cotton as any one need
wish to see. 1t was grown at his place
near town from seed received from the
Agricultural Department at Washington
and was produced without fertilizer of
any kind whatever. He is confident
that with 200 pounds of fertilizer he can
produce bale to the acre, and says he
is going to plant considerable next year.
Eighteen and twenty years ago, before
the orange fever, good cotton was grown
in this section as money crop, and it
paid we'll. Why cannot this be done
again? 1t can, If our people will go
into it.
To be sure it won't grow without
planting, without care after planting,
and won't harvest itself. A man can't
sit in an easy chair, or lie in a hammock,
hire the work done and reap enormous
prof ts-enough off an acre to keep
family of ten in luxury. This can't be
done in anything but orange culture
and it doesn' last always then.
The main trouble with farming in
Florida today is that we have no farm
ers- we never have had to any great ex.
tent. A thousand Western farmers in
Volusia county would do more towards
our material upbuilding than anything
else.
And we shall have them some day
today, tomorrow, or the next day. They
are surely coming. They can't make a
living where they are now, but they
could do we'll here. -DeLand News.

succeeded-even beyond the expecta-
tions Of those founding them, as witness
the venture at Avon Park. Successes
in this line prove that there is nothing
wrong with the colony idea, carried out
with judgment and perseverance.
The Green Cove Spring colony, under
the auspices of the Farm, Field and
Fireside, promises great things, both FIR
the projectors and for the colonists.
The scheme is a good one. A saw mill,
an ice factory and canning factory are
10 be built. The mill will give the lum-
Der for houses, fences, etc.; there will be
ice for preserving meats, butter and
other such articles, besides giving cool
drink during the long summer; the can
ming factory will enable them to put up
in season fruits and vegetables to con-
sumo out of season. Surplus lumber,
ice and canned goods, will find a ready
home market.
That this colony will be sue cess, if
conducted on the lines determined upon
as above, is foregone conclusion. In
this State, stuff for home consump tion

though, of course, Of great importance.
