Grain in Florida.

No oats, rye or barley grown north
of middle Georgia will make a crop in
Florida. All Northern-grown oats rust
in Florida, and the rye and barley do
not fill. Rust-prOOf oats grown in
southern and middle Georgia, or as
far north as Sherman, Texas, but bet
ter about San Antonio, Texas, or any
where in Florida are the only safe
oats to SOW in Florida.
The best and heaviest seeded oats
have ever seen in Florida were grown
in the western part of Marion county
by Hon. II. W. Long, on sapling pine
land, and in Levy county on similar
land. A measured bushel of these
oats weighed thirty-three pounds and
the seed was Florida grown.

Oats, like any other grain, want to be

quality averages much lower Many
shippers do not pick their beans early
enough, allowing them to become old
and tough before shipping. Shippers
could obtain one-half more for their
produce if they paid more attention to
these details, and never shipped any
thing but what was fully matured in
size and choice in quality. Use bas-
kets instead of crates for beans, peas,
cukes and lettuce. 1t will add % 10

I Cuba and Jamaica to work for him.
and he pays those strangers out of the
comforts that wife and children should

interested in the Industrial develop
ment of Florida could find the capital
to establish a refining plant at home:
this would leave here the wages paid
for labor elsewhere; this would give
us the population we now lack: we
should thus be the best customers for
our home people, and the profits
would be invested here to help pay our
taxes build our roads and keep our
minds. schools and people moving for

ton, while the great procession passes
on.
Mr.. TOmpllins declares that in the
creation of the conditions that will

is potent factOr-that we must be
careful to preserve our credit. develop
our shipping, and give legal safety to
investments. These will make the
South prosperous, but we want the

n. P. TAXES
Stutsman County Cases Argued
Before Judge AmidOn
Saturday.

The n. P. tax case against Stutsman
county was argued before Judge midon
at Fargo Saturday, and the case taken
under Amusement. No immediate de-
cision is expected. The amount Of evil
dence WAS voluminoue, including 500
pages of testimony as to value Of lands,
irregularities in assessments and levies,
both territorial and state. The tax
assessed for 1887 will be stricken out
under decision of the United States
supreme court, rendered about year
ago, and this will reduce the amount the
| cou nty can claim TO about $4,000. In
case the territorial levy for 1889 is
declared invalid and the state levy for
1894 invalid as claimed by the company,
the amount will be still furthe, cnt to
about $4,000, with the question OF
valuation of land still to be considered.
The points raised 10 the case by the
company are numerous.
The total clam Of the county against
the company as it now stands amounts
to about $4,000. including the 1887 tax
with penalty and interest. The penalty
and interest on the 1887 tax amounts to
102 per cent alone This amount being
deducted leaves as above stated about
$4,000 stlll in controversy. At one
time the company offered to settle all
the back taxes for about 80 per cent Of
the compauy's claim, which was refused.
General Land Attorney Eerr appeared
for the Northern Pacific and s. E..
Ellsworth for the county.
