Big Tobacco Sheds.


The big tobacco sheds near Madi
son look good to US. They are but
the beginning of an industry that is
to make Madison the most flourish
ing town in middle Florida. We say
confidently because We know Madison
has some of the most energetic bust
ness men in Florida. We have here
business men who are ready to risk
their judgment and capital in a good
looking investment. Next year, we
expect to see a hundred acres of
shaded tobacco grown in this county.
In fact, we consider that very con-
sentative estimate. The acreage will
be limited in our opinion only to the
amount of help that can be obtained
to put out the crop. Oh. therell be
lively times in our county next year.

HE STILL CONTROLS MERGER
Senator Nixon Reiterates Statement that Control of the GOIdfield
Consolidated Still Rests Where 1t Did Originally

Senator Nixon has been in Goldheid for the past week
looking after the interests of the Goldheid Consolidated
Mines company. Of which he is president. Senator Nixon is
very well satisfied with the condition of the merger mines
and while evidently pleased with the recent exhibition of
strength of the Consolidated shares on the stock exchanges.
asserted that the ups and downs of the market had very
little interest for him. He is a genuine believer in the fa-
ture of Goldheld and expressed the opinion that some sur
prises were in store for its critics and detractors.
There never was a time" said the senator. when the
Goldheld mines looked as well as they do at the present time
I say this in the face of the excitement here last year.
There were not as many mines or leases in operation here
at that time and the general condition Of the camp was not
as good as II is today. The brokers have been pinched in
the market and they feel a little blue and pessimistic, and
something Of their own dealings has been impaired to their
clients. There was a great deal of easy money made here
last summer and fall. Now 1t is dinerent-but that IL no
fault of the mines.
The mines of this district will have a larger production
for the last six months of this year than for the last six
months of last year-and the production for last year was
nearly all made during the last six months of the year. I
predict that the output for the district for the next sixty
days will be the greatest in the history of the camp. and the
sixty days following will be equally as good. The mines
of Goldfeld have great intrinsic values and wonderful
speculative values. In consideration of this great specula-
lower thar they did. The eastern investors must have a
great deal of faith to go into the market and put up their
in the face of the reports that have been circulated
lately.
There is nothing to the report that the control Of the
