Dairying in Florida.

A correspondent of the Inland Farm
er, writing from Miami, extols South
Florida as desirable country for the
dairyman:3 We have been telling our
readers that this state, not South Flor
ida alone, was the paradise of dairy
men or stockmen of all kinds. Hors-
es, mules, cattle, sheep, goats, hogs and
poultry Of all varieties can be produced
here cheaper than in any other part

A Pure Food Law.

The need Of state pure food law
to supplement- the United States law
is shown by some items from the Rural
New Yorker. That part which tells
OF the adulteration of stock food, is not
Of any value in this state owing to the
fact that our last legislature became
very solicitous for the stomachs of our
stock and passed stringent pure stock
food law. 1t is strange that our stock
should be considered of more i'm
portance than ourselves or our children
We hope that our next legislature
may pass a law which will make it
impossible for any such frauds to be
practiced in Florida.
s&he Kentucky pure food law appears
to Be working we'll, as the last report
shows. 1t has already driven the coal
tar dyes and antiseptics from food pro-
ducts. High colors are often used in
food to cover inferiority, and with So
called preventative" inferior goods or
those partly decomposed can be dostor-
ed SO as to make them salable AS
result OF the Kentucky law one manu-
facturer writes as follows:
We formerly used coal tar dye in our
tomato soup, but during the season
Of 1905 and henceforward, the use Of
coal tar dye and benzonate of soda
will be entirely discontinued in this
product, for we have arranged to make
it entirely from fresh tomatoes in the
height OF the packing season, which
enables us to produce a palatab1e look
ing article without the color, and re-
lieves us OF the necessity of putting
away stock and preserving with ben
zonate of soda to prevent fermentation
The law also compe1s dealers to label
substitutes for lard. When the law
went into effect mixtures of cotton-seed
oil were sold as pure 1ard'' at II and
II cents a pound. Now these substi-
tutes must be labeled, and with their
true character made known they sell
at six and seven cents, while pure lard
brings it's real price. This shows the
benefit to both consumer and producer

We believe that

Of the United States We believe that
this is not an exaggerated statement,
but that careful investigation will
show that we are we'll within the truth
in making this assertion. The Inland
Farmer article is as follows:
Florida has many profitable in
dustries and not least of these is cattle
raising. 1t is not necessary to go to
the bleak northwest, nor arid southwest
in order to make cattle raising a very
profitable industry The greatest graz
ing region east of the Mississippi is
found in South Florida. A perfect
climate keeps the grass as green in
January as in June, Good water is in
bountiful supply all the year In fact,
the greatest drought known has failed
to produce failure in water supply.
Cattle never suffer seriously from
heat and insect trouble, lille only
in May and June.
We are not acquainted with any
other section that can say as much.
What other country has as many
hundred lakes, rivers, springs and
creeks which never go dry, and fur
nlsh every pasture with never failing
water, fresh, pure and abundant ev-
cry moment Of time?
Convenient water is an essential
in the makeup of any stock raising
country, and have it from good au-
thority that there is not a spot in
the state which surveyed from a COM
mon center, will not produce running
water.
In South Florida range cattle .e-
qulre no housing or food grown for
winter, since winter is really the best
time of the year, as it is never cold
At the present time high bred cattle
are found in every part of the state.
Most of the thoroughbreds are used
especially for dairies-Jerseys being in
the lead
Diaries are in great demand and
there is an opening for many times
the present dimensions of this industry.
Carloads Of dairy COWS are continually
being brought into the state, and they
sell only because there are not enough
natives to supply the demand. Most
every one prefers a Florida raised
Jersey to an imported one, and here
is some ones opportunity.

them in dollars and cents not to read,
then no other argument would ever
need to be given them
Thirdly, it costs us much loss in pure
pleasure and moral force No man
revers or loves the pure and simple
hearted farmer more than we do. The
style Of city folks and the outward,
external show of worldly success does
not overawe our minds.
But we know the refining influence
of culture and we have felt the pure
joys that can only come from the con-
tact with higher intellectual develop
ment. So we would have our farming
class to taste these sweets also, and in
consequence, to be uplifted and saved
from many low and sordid influences
that tend to drag Our human nature
lower. Our natural force must be ex-
pended upon the high and worthy, or it
descends to the low and debasing
While we would like our farmers to
make more corn and cotton, we want
them also to know
"How this globe was forged and
how our stars were hung and be able
to trace to their very source the
springs of life" and we lose this if we
do not read.
Fourthly, it costs us much in our
influence in this world and in our
preparation for another. The farmer
who does not read, loses. in his home
life. In the influences upon his chill
dren, in the interesting power around
his hearth, in his power and influence
in his community. We are all con-
scious Of this when we talk to a man
who reads and informs himself. We
are no preachers and do not feel that
responsibility to fit men for a future
life; but rather to help them along in
this; but the two are intertwined and
she is best prepared for future life
who makes the best of this" We are
unable to conceive of any high degree
of immo rtality for us, that is not found
ed upon some high mental and moral
development while living here. So
who can tell the eternal loss to that
human soul, who had the opportunities
to unfold it's wings which alone can
uplift and bear us above the realm of
the brute, but who never improved
them?
Some wise man has written: 1T
is the imponderables (things that can
not be weighed that move the world
heat, electricity and love-" The most
potent power is often the immaterial;
for to it is given the power to change
the form of the material and bring
order out of chaos and beauty and
worth out of inanimate matter Since
our loss from not reading is often an
invisible quantity to us, it is neverthe-
less most real and stupendous one; it
is SO vast indeed that many of us can
not fully comprehend it. Fellow farm
ers, realize that the twentieth century
demands, not that you improve one,
but that you improve all your oppor-
tunities. And reading is one of the
most potent opportunities within our
reach.

How Much it Costs You Not to
Read.


it necessary to take one or more journ-
ais or magazines published in the in
terests OF his profession, and to buy
each year as many of the new books
which treat of cases that concern him
as possible Yet how many farmers
there are who think that they cannot
afford to take even one agricultural
paper, while some of those who do sub
scribe seldom take any time to read its
pages.
Farming has become as truly pro-
fession as any of the so-called learn
ed professions. Therefore to succeed
in it at this day requires as much
study as for any other. The idea that
it costs you anything not to read will
probably be new to you, but by the
time that you have finished reading the
following from the Southern Culti-
vator, we think that you will agree that
it is really too expensive habit to be
kept up any longer.
No doubt you have often had an idea,
but it remained for some one to en-
body is in terse, forc1ble sentence
for you. So with us, we were aware
of the fact that our farming class were
suffering greatly on account Of their
lack of reading; but it remained for
Mr.. J. M. Mcdonald, of Rockdale
county, to clothe the thought in most
forceful sentence for us. In talking
to us out at the State FAIR, he said:
"Our farmers often talk of the cost
of the few papers they take and the ex-
pense of a few dollars devoted to read
ing matter, but I ask them Did you
ever think how much it cost you not
to read?" Let us review this matter
together, and see some of the items Of
cost entailed upon us, by our not read
ing more.
First, reading is a habit God has
made our physical body to demand or
crave its proper supply of food, for its
maintenance and growth. The mind,
however, feels this appetite only in pro-
portion to the stimulus given by the
food taken in to promote it's develop
ment and growth. The more you feed
your mind the more it demands food.
Those farmers who think they haven't
time to read, are simply the ones who
have not acquired the habit and taste
for reading Their minds, having
never felt the stimulus of this quicken
ing power, do not feel the necessity for
it, or realize it's value or Importance
to them.
Secondly, it costs us much loss, in a
financial way. knowledge is power,
and just as great a power upon the
farm as in other avocations. There is
no way to increase our fund of knowl-
edge SO readily and rapidly as by read
ing the thoughts and experiences Of
those who are travelling tn esame road
that we are called upon to travel. Be-
sides the vast fund of valuable facts
opened to our choosing, our faculties
of perception are both quickened and
strengthened Those who do not read,
lose money by not being up, upon the
best methods and from being ignorant
of nanv Technical items that we can

Old Gorgan Graham says that a
"college doesn't make fools; it de-
velops them. It doesn't make fright
men; it develops them" This is strict
ly true of the agricultural colleges
A college trained farmer is quite sure
to make a disastrous failure unless
there is combined in his make up" a
goodly portion of common sense with
the ability to utilize his learning, not
in the development of vague theories,
but in the practical details Of the farm.

clubs are not now so much concerned as

1t has been proposed to confne the
war on these signs to those in the resi-

law of that kind could be passed.
"We could get along very comforta-

could advertise through the legitimate
channels, the newspapers, and make
their advertising fully as forceful and

assistance of the Chamber of Commerce
and of the Merchants Association in
getting legislation to do away with the
