Digging Spuds in Florida.

In a letter to Secretary Bentz
of the local lodge |. o. O. F., ].
G, Cheesebro writes in the fol
lowing interesting manaer of the
conditions as he finds them in
Florida:
Il have been having a very
busy summer here. My brother
and | have been clearing land and
setting out 10000 pineapple
plants. The summers are not as
hot here as | expected, 90 degrees
was the hottest and it rarely gets
above sc to SO degrees. 1t turned
cool today and the thermometer
went down to GO degrees. think
the chances are much better here
for poor man than in California.
Some time ago we had an I'M
usual wind storm with rain. The
wind blew gale for four days
and nights and the rain came
down in torrents, but done very
little damage, however. The low
lands are under water. My BROTH
er had patch of sweet potatoes
that was flooded and we had to
dig them at once or they would
rot. Water was over knee deep
over the whole patch, but we
waded into them and got out so
bushels in a day. We had four
'niggers' to help us. / do not
know whether you would call it
digging potatoes or fishing for
them. Every once in a while a
big rattle snake or cotton-mouth
moccasin would come swimming
through the water and | stood
guard with a club while the rest
grappled for spuds.
Il have been doing the team
ster act this week-hauling $4,000
lath from the railroad station for
pineapple shed or slat house to
protect the plants from frost
should there happen to be one
during the winter, and from too
much hot sun.
I'VE are nearly 300 miles south
of the latitude of New Orleans
and 600 miles south of Los Ange-
les.
Glad to hear that the lodge still
fiourishes. Give my regards to
all the brothers.
Yours in F. L. and T.,
j. G. CHEsEBRo. "

Commonly, the FIRST symptom of "cold
is chilly feeling, accompanied by sneez-
ing, or tickling in the throat The most
frequent of external causes are draughts,
wet or cold feet, or going from hot rooms
suddenly into cold ones. More frequently
there is an inner cause-namely the stagna-
ton of the blood caused by constipation or
biliousness. Almost the first symptom is
the feeling of cold in the feet and increased
discharge from the nose.
No one ever takes cold unless consti-
pated, or exhausted, and having what we
call mal-nutrition, which is attended with
impoverished blood and exhaustion ofnerve
force. TONES consisting of large portions
of alcohol, iron or cod liver oil do not bring
the desired changes in the blood, because
they do not enter the system and are not
absorbed into the blood, with theexception
of the alcohol, which shrivels up the red
blood corpuscles when 1t does come in
contact with them. We recommend the
botanical extract of DR.. Pierce because it
contains no alcohol, and offers a reasonable
and scientific method of treating the blood
by improving the nutritive functions of the
patient. The ~Golden Medical Discovery
accomplishes this, by first restoring the
enfeebled digestive organs, so that food,
the natural tissue builder, will be digested
and assimilated.
Accept no substitute for DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. There is moth
ing "just as good for diseases of the
stomach.
