Record Broken In the Growth Of This
Kind of Fruit.


Kind of Fruit.
Jacksonville, Tex, Feb North
Jacksonville has broken the record
having produced well developed ripe
peach in January. Sverela days ago
A. B. Floyd exhibited a limb taken
from a peach tree growing on J. C.
Phillips place in the northern part OF
the city to which was attached a well
developed peach. apparently full ripe
and well colOred. The fruit is that
known as the Alexander variety. nam
ed after a prominent family of this
place. Evidently the bloom came during
the fall and the peach survived what
few cold snaps that have occurred.
So far as is known. this is the first
ripe peach seen here in January.

Overdressing and poor ventilation are
the causes OF many colds among child
rem as we'll as babies. and l wish it were
possible to have mothers understand
this. In a way it is quite as bad TO have
a child too warmly dressed as not
sufficiently so, for in the first case he
becomes too warm and is susceptible to
cold by the very fact that the pores are
TOO open.
Clothes which are damp with per-

Therefore don't ''Overwrap" children
If they are TO be walking, playing
games, or INDUCING In any sort of
muscular exercise.
In addition to care OF the clothing,
every mother should regularly examine
the sOles Of her chndren's shoes and
make it a rule that the same pair shall
not be worn two days in succession. It
Is really an economy 90 have at least
two pairs Of good strong shoes and
