 The attention of the Governor was cail- ed to the coming convention of cane growers at Jacksonville by Capt. D. C. Purse, who is the moving spirit in the organization. His enthusiasm has made the Association a live, vital organization, wh oh has drawn the attention of South ern farmers to the returns that can be secured by using the land from which the pine trees have been cut by planting them In cane The Association Is sad to have already produced an increase in the amount of cane sugar produced in the South.
 In a letter to the Governor Captain Purse says the work of the Association this year Is of special importance in view of the high price of cotton. This hlsh price, 1t was said, might lead the South ern farmers back to the one crop idea, when, in fact, land in cane could be made to yield equally large returns as that planted in cotton, and with much less expense.
