and good farming implements, 1000
bushels of corn in four months time, or
Iget for my land, mule and days labor,
10 bus hels of corn per day, sold in the
field at 40 cents per bushel, or 81 per day
for this investment; one man and mule
in 25 DAYS work can make me about
1000 pounds sugar or 400 gallons syrup,
or can get about S75 for % days work
of man and mule; 10 days work will
make on one acre 500 to 800 pounds,
clean rice. or $25 per acre or So per day;
10 days work will make me on one acre
in sweet potatoes that which will feed
my family of five in potatoes for over a
year; five days work will make one acre
in pinders which can sell seed for $40
and fatten three head of hogs on what is
left in the field, or three acres in pinders
will pay all costs of raising etc., and
fatten enough pork to last my family
the year. 1926 will raise as good horse or
mule as is raised in the United States,
If properly managed, and a cow in
Florida of the right kind and rightly
treated will give just as much milk as
cow anywhere in the United States
I have made about 40 tons of hay that
did not cost me oyer 1925 to lake and
there is no country in the world that
will raise crab grass, beggar weeds ETC.,
cheaper than we can, yet there is not
enough forage in this country made last
year that will last the live stock in the
county two days. With nine months in
the year grazing and only three months
to partly feed and keep, we depend on
the cold northwest to give us beef in
the winter time at Armour prices,
while IS per cent of the cattle in the
county have died from exposure and
starvation this winter.
We had a new baby in our house last
October and both Of our COWS were dry
and had to send clear to Michigan for
some baby food because we could get
no fresh milk in our neighborhood.
The rice we sell in our stores is raised in
China and has to be transported over
$4,000 miles, several dealers making a
profit. This could all be raised here.
Ten years ago 1T took our grist mill two
days to grind the meal grown in our
neighborhood, now our toll for a whole
days work amounts to three bushels,
why? Because they haven't got the
corn to grind and buy meal and grits
from stores. Now, trees are gone, labor
is going and poverty stares them in
the face, because our people have been
following only one line of industry,
neglecting the very essentials of home
life.
Hides are not worth the hauling and
taking to market and lie to rot, because
there is not tanning or shoe factory in
the county and all our shoes come
from the North. While we have the
richest phosphate deposits in he world,
there is not fertilizer factory in the
county, and we pay freights on same to
some northern yankee to mix it for us,
then pay the freight back again to us

In an interview Mr. Brand. the owner OF Spruce

he received the farest treatment while he was in
America. The racing was properly conducted.
The steamers did not interfere IN the least except
by accident. when the owner OF tne "teiiei'"s
steamer apoIogized. His only complaint referred
to his protest the refusal to support which lost the
cup for him. The Ethewynn, in the sixth race ne
