where We can feel sure that, while the
tea plant will stand considerable cold.
it will also endure tropical climate,
as is shown by the fact that it is sue
cessfully cultivated in Ceylon, which is
located less than ten degrees north Of
the equator. The tea plant is said to
thrive best on rich, moist soil. The
latter we have in abundance, and it
can be made as rich as necessary. The
only thing lacking in this state to make
it a successful venture is irrigation
1t requires a much greater rainfall
than we possess, but that could be
very easily remedied by supplying
water artifcially.
For many years, it was considered
impossible for America to compete
with China, Japan and India in raising
tea, on account of the higher price Of
labor and the large amount of it that
is required on an Oriental tea planta-
ton. But as American ingenuity has
provided machines which will do most
OF the work, after the leaves are pick
ed, it seems that there is no reason
why the business should not prove very
profitable.

Crude Oil for Roads.

The use of crude oil for making
good roads is on the increase. AS we
mentioned last week there are some
who do not think that it is practicable
in this state. This, of course, can
only be determined by experiment
AS to its being expensive, there is but
little mat eria1 available in Florida that
will not be expensive. In few coun-
ties coquina can be had at little ex-
pense; in others limestone is cheap;
in still other places there is nothing
but clay that can be had, and in many
sections even that is not to be found.
In such cases we believe that the use
Of crude oil, or the refuse from oil
refnerles, will be found to be the best
and cheapest material that can be had.
An editorial item in Farm and Ranch
says: ''Oil improves black land roads.
About one gallon of oil to the square
yard is DOSE 'We1l rounded roads,
"a feet wide, to which an inch Of sand
is applied and worked in to insure
that the oil mixes we'll with the dirt

AS to immigration.

Many years ago, MIR. Dudley w.
Adams, writing about seeking inmi-
grants for this state, said that Florida
was the best advertised state in the
Union, and that if you could convince
people that they could make living
here, you could not fence them OUT
He always maintained that Our pro-
duce, fruits, ETC., sold at good prices,
and that if we could get them carried
to market at a reasonable rate, our
truck farmers and fruit growers would
make money.
The same conditions exist today. It
is Of little use to seek immigrants
among those who must till the soil
for living. We may induce laborers
to come and do some of the hard
work that is required, or we may in
duce rich men and women to buy win
ter homes here. But there is little
chance for us to get the middle class
to come in large numbers until we can
get relief from the present outrageous
rates OF transportation charges. Our
state railroad commission should
carry the matters before the Interstate
Commission, if they have the authori-
ty to do so officially, and if they have
not this authority, then the legislature
should specifically authorize them to
do so.

IN the last sentence, where profits and
irrigation are mixed up. So far as we
are Informed there is not an irrigat-
ing plant in the strawberry region of
tbs county, and yet the largest ship
ment Of the season was made by our
growers last Saturday. The drouth
has prevailed here, as it has in other
section Of the state, since last fall,
being broken by less than half dozen
showers, but Our strawberry growers
are reaplng rich harvest nothwith-
standing the unfavorable weather con-
ditions.
lhe character of the land has much
to do with the success or failure at
tendant upon the growing of crops in
Florida. 1t SO happens that the east
ern part of Bradford county has the
call on the strawberry business, and
it might as well be recognized at once
by those who hope to get the best
results from the culture of this de-
llclous frult.-Bradford Telegraph.

A Home Gamers Association.

We have often expressed the opin-

The Florida State Horticultural
Society.

Do not forget the annual meeting of
this society which is to be held at St.
Petersburg, Fla, on the 16, II, IS
and 10 of May, 1907. Make your plans
to be present and to stay through to
the end. So many do not come until
the second or third day and then leave
before the society adjourns In this
way they lose much OF the benefit OF
the meeting. Of course, if it is i'm
possible for you to get there sooner,
we shall be glad to see you at any time
that you can come. Or if business
compels you to leave before the adj
journment, you are free to do so, but
we wished to call your attention to the
fact that by SO doing you are losing
much that valuable. Therefore, if
possible, come early and stay until
the end

Kansas" says the State Experiment
Station, and no dust appears in the
dryest weather, and no moisture pene-
trates the road bed in the wettest
weather" The above statements are
not contradicted and may be taken as
proving the value OF oil as a road max
ing substance. A thorough trial
should be made to see whether oil
will not work as satisfactorily on Flor

Tea Growing in South Carolina.

We are able to give, this week,
satisfactory evidence that tea growing
has passed the experimental stage in
this country-that it can be made a
commercial success. That being the
case, why should not the citizens of
Florida reap some of the profit which
can be made from thrifty tea p1anta-
ton? We have the soil and a better
climate than that of South Carolina,
in which the successful tea farms are
located. This is one of the cases

Florida for the Farmer.

FlOr1da tor the Farmer.
Florida is a good place to live and
there are plenty of farmers who are
making large income from a few
acres. We have no doubt that the
reports Of profitable crops Of celery at
Sanford and of strawberries at Starke
are true. Also that there are other
places where the soil would bear just
as good crops, yet it remains true also
that there are hundreds of other far
mers who have hard struggle to get
enough to live comfortably. The
newspapers never tell of the failures.
1t is not every man who can make
success even when the conditions are
as favorable as those of the successful
man.
The following item from the Times
Union is no doubt strictly correct in
its statements, and yet it will not do
for every one to be sure that they have
only to get few acres in Florida
dllQ NC sure Oh IOICuuG.
The northern farmer who could
clear $1,000 off each acre of land he
possessed in a year would regard him
self as doing very well indeed. Even
hundred dollars an acre is regarded
up north as a pretty good neat return
for a years labor. Yet at Sanford six
hundred crates of celery to the acre,
netting the grower more than $1,000
for three months labor, is often pro-
duced. While one trucker there says
his crop this year will make 1000
crates, on which he will clear about
$500, to the acre. The Sanford
Chronicle we'll says that "One acre
of land, irrigated, is all one man needs
in this country, if he understands how
to cultivate it properly
Celery is only one of number of
crops which will make the farmer
wealthy in Florida. Strawberries, to-
bacco, tomatoes, potatoes, pineap-
pies, these and several other crops
await the man who has little capital
or the poor man who has the pluck
to rent small pece of land from
which the profits will enable him
eventually to become a landowner
Florida spreads her arms to welcome
the agricultural immigrant, and offers
him cheap lands.
With climate which allows of
work out-of-doors all the year round,
a soil which is perpetually bearing,
one crop succeeding another the year
round, and easy communication with
the winter and spring markets of the
north-what more could the farmer
ask?

Where Appropriations Count.

Where Appropriations Count.
The editor OF the California Cultiva-
tor discusses the question as to what
kind Of appropriations will do most
good and do most for the permanent
advancement of the best interests Of
the state The conclusions which he
reaches seem to us very wise.
In some Of the states Of the Union
the legislatures are debating the
proposition of expending large sums
in the erection of capitol buildings.
Notably this is true in Maine, where
it is proposed to build capitol edifce
that shall be monument to the enter
prise of the residents Of the Pine Tree
State
Naturally the question arises,
whether more is to be gained in the
way Of advertising a state through ex-
pensive public buildings or by money
expended in road making, experiment
stations and other things which have
for their object the advancement of the
conditions Of the rural population.
1t is a mooted question whether
grand capitol buildings have much in
f1uence in attracting residents, especial
ly SO if other important considerations
which effect the prosperity of the
farmer be neglected In this age Of
practical agriculture the trend OF effort
is toward the lettering of farming con-
dltions. Good roads have come to be
regarded as living necessity. Lands
are desirable in proportion to their
ability to produce and their proximity
to active markets. Farms located on
well-made highways are vastly more
desirable than those hedged in by bad
ones, and the seeker for farm, nova
days, looks as mich to the access Of
the market and the comfort OF travel.
as he does to proximity Of rural
schools.
Experiment stations are vital ne
cesslty, not only in new states where
conditions are undergoing radical
changes, but in older states where
worn out soil and pests as enemies of
horticulture have practically rendered
new line Of action imperative for the
farmer.
In our judgment, money expended in
extending relief to farmers, and in
educating them to new and improved
lines Of work, as we'll as money ex-
pended on highway betterments, will
be conducive to better results in adver-
Using a state than in monuments of
stone in buildings.

POPULARITY OF FOOT BALL.
Many Demands for Tickets for the
Big Games

Judging from the demand for tickets
to the big intercollegiate foot ball games,
which mark the close of the season and
the arrangements being made for long ex-
cursion trips to the fields of play, foot
ball has lost nothing of interest through
the many changes made in the playing
code. The applications being received at
the various university centers for tick
cts to the Princeton-Yale, Yale-Har-
ward. Pennsylvania Michigan and Indian
Princeton games are so great that it is
already evident that the stands surround
ing the gridirons at these contests will be
filed to overfloWing.
A concerted effort is being made to pre-
vent the ticket Spectator from reaping
his usual harvest at the expense of the
late corners. but judging from the demand
for coupons 1t appears quite likely that
those who fail to secure seats through the
regular channels will patronize the specu-
lator at the eleventh hour, provided he has
the pasteboards to sell. In the east the
Yale-Princeton tickets appear to be in
great demand. The action of the athletic
committee at Harvard in refusing to erect
the customary temporary stands at the
open end of the stadium will curtail the
seating capacity of that arena to some
30. 900 spectators. The permanent stands
sat Yale Field will accommodate as many
IL not a few hundred more, so that from
the standpoint of attendance the Yale
Princeton game is likely to hold the record
a the end OF the season.

BOWLING FARMERS

Many shake-Ups in the Stand

Departmental League.

Last years champions have not sue
ce eded in taking first place away from the
Farmers, who have increased their lead in
The Departmental Bowling League over
the Navy by one more game since the
latest publication of averages, having lost
only two out of fifteen games.
There have been many shape-ups-in the
standing, several of the weaker teams, OFF
to a good start, having found the pace too
fast and fallen back. The Bureaus have
made the most substantial gain, winning
five of their last six games. This brings
them up from seventh to fourth place, ex-
changing berths with the Printers.
Those who predicted that Field would
fall off his fast game have guesses com
ing to them. Jimmy has increased his
average from 1877 to 203. He also has high
set G61, and the greatest number of go

When John King Bought.

During the last series that the Detroit
club played with the Chicago American
League team. Johnny King, the catcher
of the Cubs, was an interested spectator.
While the Detroits were at the bat Sam
Crawford and Johnny King, who are
personal friends. were engaged in n
friendly conversation when a small boy
with a shrewd face came up to the two
players. The kid had a small puppy in a
basket which ne tried to sell to Craw
ford. and when that big player good-na-
turedly asked him what league the dog
belonged to the boy promptly said that
he was an American League puppy.
AS Crawford did not have any use for
the dog he told the boy that he would
not buy it. and the Juvenile dog merchant
wandered among the other Detroit play
ers and tried to dispose of the canine,
but without success.
A couple of days afterward the same
boy showed up at the Chicago National
League park, and he had the same dog,
which he was trying TO sell to the play
ers who work for Mr.. Murphy.
When Killing caught sight of the kid he
remembered the boy in a moment, al
though the boy did not appear to recol-
and in joking way asked the lad If that
was an American or National League
pup The kid promptly replied that it
was National League dog.
But, SAID KING, the other day l saw
you with the same puppy over at the
American League park, and you then
claimed that he was an American League
dog
He was then" quickly replied the boy
but now, you see, he has his eyes open"
This remark held King all right. for
in a few moments he had produced the
necessary money, and the pup quickly
changed ownership, and he was the mas
cot of the Chicago club during the world
championship series which they played
with the Tigers. and King today attrib-
utes his teams success to the good luck
qualities of that dog.
