liquor, and the prosecution summoned Pat
to testify in the case. Now Pat was a job
teamster, and Butler endeavored to make
him admit that he had delivered liquor 10

Editor BIaCkman Advises Grow
ers to Plant this Staple.
NORTHERN CROP POOR
Exhibits at Fairs in New York and Penn
sylvania Show Poor Displays OF
Potatoes and Cabbage.

Several weeks ago the editor of the
Homeseeker left Miami on his annual
advertising trip through the states of
New York and Pennsylvania. Since
arriving north he has visited several
fairs, including the New York State
fair, at Syracuse. and wrote the follow
ing observations for the last issue OF
the HOmeSeeker.
At the county fairs we have been
greatly disappointed at the small amount
Of vegetables on exhibited. The potato
exhibit at all the fairs has been espec-
tally poor. The same can be said Of
the cabbage display. At each of these
fairs we have had the opportunity Of
meeting hundreds of farmers and con-
versing with them.
The potato crop throughout New
York state is rotting badly in the field.
Owing to the continued rains, the grow
ers have not been able to harvest their
crop, and the continued water soaked
soil hastens decay. A large planter
told us that he was digging his crop as
fast as possible, and should store none
in the cellar as he is afraid they will
continue to decay. The blight struck
TIE NlHtS anu ucCtly Sct lIl
1t is evident that the East Coast po-
tato planters will have good marke ct
for their potato crop this season. We
would advise the growers in the south
ern portion of the East Coast to plant
early, get their crop marketed before
the Hastings crop come in, so there
would be no competition between the
two points.
The acreage planted in cabbage in
the section where we have travelled is
small, with Il medium crop. If this is
the general condition throughout the
cabbage growing districts, there will
be good money in Florida cabbages this
winter and spring.
We have never seen so many people
anxious to learn something reliable
in regard to Florida. The cold winters
and the unfavorable outcome of the
financial part of the business is setting
the people thinking, and many are con-
WINGED that the far South offers greater
advantages, both in climate and tilling
the soil.
The outlook now is that the East
Coast will have a much greater number
Of tourists next winter than ever be-
fore, and the increase in permanent
settlers will be still greater. There are
readers of the Homeseeker throughout
the north who are coming south this
winter for the first time, and large
number of them will purchase land and

case. A story is sometimes re-
lated, meant to be at Florda's expense,
of person who came to Florida to get
rich. His idea was that Florida was
one vast solid orange grove, awaiting
subdivision, and all he had to do was
to select his share-4O acres would be
enough fence out trespassers, and in
years time ship the fruit and
rake in the checks. Well, he did not
find it so, and when the year rolled by
he jouneyed back from whence he
came, wiser and poorer in pocket. But
that is not all the story. On the way
back fellow traveller, to whom he re-
lated his experience, asked him how
much per acre he considered the land
worth, and he replied that $1,000 an acre
would buy it. why" said his com,
panion, show can that be? | would
consider it worthless. "Climate, eli
mate" said our Florida friend; 81 have
not been able to satisfy my appetite
for a year." And this is true in this
part of Florida With fish and oysters
in abundance, and fruit and vegetables
all winter as well as the rest of the
year, and the salt breezes blowing
around you all the time, and some
work mixed in for spice, it seems to me
there must be something radically
wrong with the person who does not
eat, and enjoy, three meals a day.
In another paper will say something
about the other conditions Ihave named
as being inimical to this section OF
Florida. K. A. HOLT.

POPULAR YOUNG
COUPLE TO WE'D

THE TRIBUNE is in receipt of the fol-
lowing invitation announcing the COM
ing marriage of popular young couple
who will reside in Fort Pierce :
"Mr. and Mrs. John W. Moore invite
you to be present at the marriage Of
their daughter Frances Gardner, to
Mr.. Daniel Thomas McCarty, on Wed.
nesday evening, the twenty-iifth Of
October, nineteen hundred and five, at
half after seven o'clock, st. Peters
Episcopal church, Charlotte, North
Carolina.
Miss Moore is well and favorably
known in Fort Pierce, where she has
spent several winters with her sister.
Mrs. A. NJ. Sample, and where she has
host of friends who will welcome her
return to our town. She is lady Of
many rare traits of character, and her
rich voice has attracted many to our
churches when she was announced to
sing an anthem.
Mr.. McCarty is too well known to
need comment here. He has lived in
this vicinity from boyhood. and grown
up among the majority of our people,
all of whom have the highest respect
and regard for his many gentlemanly
and business qualities, and all will unite
in extending congratulations on his ex-
cellent choice for life partner.
After the ceremony the bridal couple
will leave on a extended tour, visiting
several western states, and will be at
home to their friends in their elegant
new home on the river front after the
first of December.
THE TRIBUNE joins the hosts of friends
of the contracting parties in extending
congratulations and best wishes, in adj
vance.

THE JAPANESE TEA
A GREAT SUCCESS

The members of the Fort Pierce I'M
provement club have every reason to
feel pleased over the success of the
japanese tea and social held at the
Fort Pierce hotel Saturday afternoon
and evening.
Although rain threatened in the af-
ternoon many ladies and children were
in attendance; in fact the afternoon
was given over to the little ones and
their protectors. By 8 o'clock how
ever, the hotel was comfortably filled,
and the coy little japanese maids were
kept busy serving ice cream TO the
ever increasing throng.
Every section of this vicinity was
well represented, and the affair will go
down in history of local events as one
of much enjoyment and great success.
The large dining room of the hotel
was decorated tastefully with japanese
lanterns and fans, and the attendants
at the tables, Misses Morgan, Milton,
Olmstead and Kimball, and Mesdames
c. T. McCarty and H. B. Paxton, were
attired in Japanese costumes and pre-
sented striking array of bright colors,
pretty faces and vivacious manners.
About o'clock the floor was cleared
and the young people enjoyed clipping
the light fantastic until the wee sma'
hours.
The sale of refreshments during the
afternoon and evening Melted the I'm
provement club the sum Of SAT, which
will be put to good use by this enter
prising club.

EAST COAST OF FLORIDA IS PARADISE RECLAIMED

Pierce, from one and half to miles
west of the +. E. c. Ry., with which it
is connected by shell road.
The first impression to a majority of
homeseekers for the East Coast is apt
to be unfavorable as to distance from
the beautiful waters of Indian river;
but getting used to that settler will
perceive advantages which will more
than compensate the absence of q
water front and the lovely st. Lucie
flowing right through the settlement
can afford much of the pleasures of the
water.
The balmy atmosphere of the pine
woods mingling with the proverbial
trade winds is more than compensation
for any seeming loss in being little
retired and when the northeast and
northerly winds prevail their chilliness
is broken by the protection and warmth
arising from the forests.
The lands here are in the main of a
twofold nature, Cd the low rich loan
and clay bottom soils, and (2) the high
pine and palmetto lands. The first are
admirably adapted to all manner of
truck farming and sugar cane. The lat
Vel arc ChSCiCut loi VIC Slliuo AiuiIo
and the pineapples other fruits Also
and sugar cane, sweet and Irish pota-
toes, etc. These lands are so distri-
buted that both may easily be obtained
in tracts of 10 acres, and often in five
acres.
The most important industry in the
long run will be that of the citrus fruit
But the pineapple brings more immedi-
ate results. Truck farming has been
the mainstay of the place, though han
dicapped by expenses to the Northern
markets. 1t promises a great business
in the near future, when the great
trunk lines, it is hoped, shall have Of
fered better facilities Of transporta-
tion. But at present trucking is being
supplanted by the culture of pines,
since it has been proven that they at
tain here the highest perfection in both
size and quality. The more valuable a
product, the easier the expense Of trans.
portation is borne. However, with the
rapid increase in population these mat.
tiers will be adjudged. NoN-AND-THEN.
