WEDNESDAY, FEB. IA, 1906.
Parcels Post.

We devote much space this week
to this important subject. In fact it
is almost or quite the most important
one. after rate legislation, that is be
fore the people. We hope that you
will read all that we have quoted,
very carefully. Also the letter from
a country merchant, which presents
another side of the question.
We wish that we could reproduce a
cartoon which was printed in Farm
and Home. 1t is not large, but it is
telling. You see the back of large
man whose attitude expresses extreme
fright, his arms are partially extended
with every finger spread out to its ut
most. He has sunk little SO that
his knees are little bowed. Every
hair On his head stands up like the
quilts of porcupine, so much so,
that his hat has risen up and is clear
above his head. Across his back are
the words, Express Co. In front of
him is very large bomb, nearly as
tall as himself labeled Parcels Post.
The fuse is lighted and is shedding
sparks at a lively rate. Below are
the words: Congress Has Assembled.
Express CO.-"Gee whiz! somebody
has gone and lit that thing again.
1t has been lighted and the people
are going to see to it that it is kept
going until it bursts and blows up
the express monopoly.

Sand Bag for Kickers.

Give the stable-kicking horse a sand
bag to exercise upon. Fill a grain
sack half full of sand so the sack will
hang just where the heels of the horse
will have good play upon it. Tie the
horse i'm the stall with a good strong
rope. and let him kick At the first
kick the bag will swing away and re-
turn giving the horse as good as he
sent For the next few minutes there
will be lively miXup between the
horse and sack. but the sack will hold
its own. returning all it receives with
interest The horse, in bucking
against the real thing, will soon come
to realization of the fact, and will
be thoroughly cOwed. Leave the sack
behind him for a week or so and then
remove it. If he even shows
tendency to get into his old habit of
kicking. give him another bag to eX-
ercise with.-'Epitomist

japanese Cane.

This week we publish an article.
from the Tampa Times. reporting
sugar made from Japanese cane. This
will be good news to our sugar
makers. This variety has the great
advantage, over the common cane, of
not needing to be planted new every
wear. 1t is sufficiently hardy to live
over winter and sprOut up vigorously
in the spring.
Besides being valuable for sugar
and syrup it is very valuable as
forage plant. 1t starts early i'm the
spring and will furnish good grazing
earlier than almost any other plant.
About the only way to get green feed
earlier would be to sow rye or oats.
We hope that there will he very
general trial of this variety the com
ing season.
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1906-02-14

we may expect larger crop than that
of 1905. 1t seems probable that every
one has been counting on his neighbor
not planting. so that there would be a
chance for him to make a good thing
out of crop of potatoes.
Good potatoes can be bought in
Jacksonville for about 50 per barrel
sack. that means not to exceed S1.5O
to S1.15 in New York. too low price,
for new potatoes to bring Il really
profitable price.

Florida's Advantages.

The editor of the st. Lucie County
Tribune gives his ideas on this sub
ject. Probably it is true that F1Orl-
dams could come near living at home
as those of any other state. Yet if we
did not increase our stock of sheep,
we should soon miss our wooden cloth
ing.
We have plenty of peaches, oranges
and lemons, but what about apples!
We should miss them. Of course no
such thing is possible. 1t may be well
to remember our great resources and
do our best to develop them to their
utmost capacity. Such articles may
change the opinions of those who look
upon Florida as land of sand and
swamps, useful only as refuge from
the cold of a Northern winter.
Editor Caldwell, of the Jasper News
calls attention to the fact that IL
wall were built on the Florida line
patrolled by a host of troops to prevent
ngress or egress, and every port in
the state securely blOcaded, Florida
people would live On the same as ever
and enjoy ali the comforts and luXu-
ries of life Not only can the people
produce all the edibles desired by or
binary mOrtals, but clothing fit for a
king can be made from the sea island
cotton.
Oceans of salt water on three sides
will produce salt for the world, and
the abundance of sand will furnish all
the glassware the world would need
for a thousand years, and add to 1T our
mines of cement, a Chinese wall could
be built around the world, while
enough rock could be quarried to build
a hundred New York cities. She has
rich mines of iron, phosphate and full
ler's earth. while the fish and oyster
supply is ineXhaustible, and the great
est variety of fruits and vegetables
of any state in the union, not forget
ting the stalwart men, pretty women
and bouncing babies.

Potatoes.

We have thought, ever since the
Northern potato crop was dug, last
fall, that this would be a good year
for Florida farmers to plant potatoes
The present outlook is not so favor
able From all reports the acreage
will be nearly as great as it was last
season. If the weather is favorable,
