Corthell strobe along briskly. The
clear morning air, the bright sunlight
and the fertile fields bordering on the
road were all source of delight to
him.
NOT IN years had he enjoyed meal
as much as he had the homely break
fast provided at the little country ho-
tel where he had put up the night be-
fore and where he had left the trunk
that held his city clothes. Now in
well worn suit he was tramping along
the dusty road with much the same
FEELING as that enjoyed by boy who
plays hockey from school for the first
time.
In years Corthell had not felt justi-
fed In taking a vacation. Finally
through combination of circum-
stances he had been able to get to-
gether some capital, and by unremit-
ting effort this had been doubled and
trebled into the fortune that made him
prominent in the money market.
Then came the breakdown. The ia
nous specialist in nervous diseases
insisted upon a vacation TITS either
few weeks vacation or years in an
insane asylum" he said bluntly. "You
know best which you want. Make
your own choice"
In the end Corthell had capitulated
and had suggested Newport as the
place for vacation. The specialist
regarded him with disgust.
Il think | should have saved time by
sending you to the asylum first" he
said. He was paid $25 for consulta-
ton and could afford to say what he

He bowed Corthell out Three days
later the broker was set down in a
tiny hamlet in the northern part of
the state, and this was the first day of
his trip.
He had stopped to watch some men
haying, when one of them came to
ward him.
Looking for job?' he demanded.
Corthell laughed. II don't know that
I am" he answered. Il was going
| farther on"
'T'n give dollar and half day

his surprise, Corthell found himself
climbing the fence and moving toward
the horse rake.
1t seemed ages since he had per-
formed similar services on his fathers
farm. The bony horse he was driving
bore little resemblance to his own
prize winners, but he derived more
real pleasure from the task than had
ever come from spin along the b0ule-
ward. He was surprised at the flight
of time when the horn blew for dinner
He was still more surprised at the
appetite he had for the pork and pota-
toes that formed the menu. He ac-
cepted two helpings and still had room
for generous cut Of the green apple
pie.
In the afternoon he was expected to
help pitch the sweet scented hay upon
the cart. He worked until the mus
cles of his back were sore and smart
ing, but gave no sign of his distress,
only worked away with clinched teeth.
When at last the men knocked off and
the final load started to the barn he
heaved sigh of relief.
Most of the men were from nearby
farms, and these were paid of and
started for their own homes. Corthell
was the last Of the line, and the farm
er paused.
II won't take anything off for the
time before you came" he said.
Want to stay on till hayin's overY'
Corthell nodded.
II guess will,' he agreed. Work
seems to agree with me-"
sCome on up to supper ordered the
farmer. II guess mother can fix you
up with place over the wood shed"
Corthell followed his grim employer

The weekly true Democrat. (Tallahassee, Fla.) 1905-1912, 1907-07-19
Leon County Tobacco.

The True Democrat published on the
5th inst. series of views and descrip-
tive matter of La Rosa Tobacco Farm
This week we present to our readers
views Of the plantation of State Sena-
tor John w. Henderson, situated about
four miles east of Tallahassee, on the
st. Augustine road. This fine estate
comprises nearly 700 acres, but the
process of transformation into tobacco
farm has only just begun, with ten
acres of magnificent Sumatra under
shade this first season
Senator Henderson crop, as may be
seen in the accompanying views, is in
an exceptionally tlourishlng condition,
having had the advantages of good soil.
Judicious fertiliZing, expert manage
ment and the unremittng personal at.
Jention of the proprietor. The entire
crop is already sold at price not made
public, but which Is understood 10 be
nighly satisfactory. This is not an un-
usual circumstance, as many other
growing crops have already found a
good market, and one, at least is
bnown to have been sold before il was
planted.
The requisites for success IN this in
dustry are many and imperative, in
Guiding good soil, level or nearly level
surface, wise selection and skilled use
of fertilizers, experienced management
Of the crop, both IN growing and curing,
and almost sleepless vigilance in de.
Tending IL from disasters threatened by
bad weather, vermin, careless handling.
etc. The cost per acre of shading. Gull
tivation, harvesting and barn-curing,
under the best conditions, may be safely
estimated within one thousand dollars.
Barns having q capacity Of 5000 pounds
each are required for every five acres
These, on the Henderson plantation. are
each 10 feet long by 40 feet in width.
with l6-foot walls. The shades and
barns are, OF course, permanent invest
ments, disable for many succeeding
crops.
As is we'll known, the tobacco-grow-
ing industry in Leon county, although
IL has been IN successful operation for
several years by the prOprietors Of III
Provedo factory and others, has quite
recently taken on a new impulse, and the

acreage this year is larger than ever
before. Through the courtesy of Mr..
X. w. Rowe, tobacco expert of the ma
tional Department of Agriculture, who
has spent most of the time since last
February in this and adjacent counties,
he fact Is learned that the majority of
che growing crops are in very prom
ising condition, Notwithstanding the un-
favorable weather earlier in the season
and the inexperience of those engaged
in the industry. The aggregate area in
the county under shade is in the neigh
borhoOd Of 275 acres, most of which is
in excellent condition. Two large cur
ing houses with an aggregate capacity
of half million pounds have been con.
structed in Tallahassee; and If the
rather exceptionally good prices of the
present season are maintained, and wis
dom and sound judgment are exercised
in the conduct of the industry, there
appears to be no reason whatever why
Leon Countyshouldn not become as famous
for its tobacco, and enjoy as high a de-
gree of prosperity therefrom, as Gads.

fall with good two-horse pillow fol-
lowed by One-horse sub-soiler, by so
doing It will absorb the moisture during
the winter. In the spring, your stable
manure, cotton seed and lime should be
spread on broadcast and plowed uader.
Then Ia about four weeks rebrake your
land dry, lay off the rows four feet
apart, putting your commercial fertilizer
in the row and list on to it making bed.
Just before you transplant burst open
the bedsand rebed them, thereby thor
oughly mixing the fertilizer and soil.
The plants are set from ~ to Is inches
apart in the rows. The plants should
be set at least to 10 days before be-
ginning cultivation.
The first cultivation should be deep
followed by shollow as long as posi-
BILE and hand hoeing at least once a
week during the season. When the
plant buds out it should be topped so
as to let it ripen, generally 60 days
from time of setting
With good season the harvesting
begins by picking the first four bottom
or sand leaves The leaves are picked,
then taken to the barn in baskets where
they are strung on strings, which are
on the sticks which are feet, 4 inches
long and IL inches wide. The leaves
are placed back to back and face to
face putting from So to 40 leaves on
