TO DRAIN THE FLORIDA EVER

To save and use some six or seven
million acres of land which has been
supposed to be waste and which has
been given over to reptiles and wild
animals. is the project which the gov
ernor of Florida and certain OF the
states capitalists have undertaken.
The famous Everglades are to be
drained-are being drained in fact. and
a vast area of land which has been
over1Owed with water and thousands
Of thousands of acres of which are al
most impossible swamp, are to be
brought under cultivation. Florida is

try. the difficulties in the way of saw
ing this great acreage and the benefits
which will accrue to the state from
the carrying out of the enterprise
THE importance of this immense
undertaking can with difficulty be COM
pretended says the writer. 1T is es
timated in figures which can scarcely
be understood by the ordinary mind.
The reclamation of this land means
the addition to florida of neary as
much cultivated land as sh now has

that Florida will become the sugar

for her sugar products the s150.000, 900
will be paid. which is now annually
sent abroad for sugar. an amount ex-
pended for an import. which exceeds
d by several million dollars the value of
our united exports of corn. wheat. flour
beef. and naval stores. 1t means that
. Florida will in a few years become one
of the richest and most important
states in the union

A comparison of the assessment of
last year with the returns made this
year shows a wonderful increase in
valuation. Ii is recalled also that the
law under which. the assessment is
made is practically the one asked for
by the mining companies themselves
which were accused of doing their ut
most to dodge a legitimate taxation,
and though the valuations under 1t
may not be as large as some people
think they ought to be. it is very
large step for the companies to take
of their own volition and seems to be
calling out a very equitable and fair
return.
II will be noted that the assessment
returned by the Arizona Copper Co. is
slightly lower than that of last year
This is accounted for by the fact that
the Arizona Copper Co. is one which
did not resist the raise made by the
board Of equalization last year. but ac-
copied the ordered raise, wherefore 1T
was probably assessed last year fully
as high as the facts warranted.
