RESPECTFULLY REFERRED
TO THE STREET COMMITTEES

Editor Star:-Our city fathers
acting, if l remember right, on a sug-
gestion of the Star-are very prompt
in compelling our sidewalk men to
have lamps at night on the piles Of
material left by them in the street,
Now. / think it is time they took q
little of their own medicine. between
DR.. Izlars and the Spurlin place are
three mounds of earth that have been
there for weeks. They were left there
by the street men when they under
took do do some work on the crossing.
There is scarcely room for a wagon to
pass between them and as il is blacker
than Egypt there at night. if two
teams should happen to meet just
there. there would be a bad accident.
Now if the street committee thinks
those piles of earth add beauty 70 the
landscape, all well and good; but let
them at least decorate them at night
with a light Of some kind before the
city is mulcted in a big bill for dam
ages. Packham.

country for the production of this
delicious fruit, the trees bearing
very abundantly and making a
crop that is exceedingly valuable,
while the trees also begin bearing
within two or three years after
planting. The statement that this
IS an ideal country for all tropical
fruits because it never freezes here
should also be modified, as the
weather statistics show beyond
question that it does sometimes
fall to freezing here, although not
very often.
While it is true that we have
here beyond doubt the finest win
ter climate on the continent, and
the greater part of the winter is
is so mild and balmy that wraps
and fires are unnecessary, yet II
connot be denied that old Boreas
does sometimes give even this ia
vored region a nip that makes furs
and fires comfortable, and it has
even been so cold once or twice
during the past fifteen years as
even to freeze the orange and ban
ana trees in this region. But all
that does not alter the fact that
the soil here is the richest in the
world. with the best alI-the-year-
round climate on the continent.
The truth is convincing enough.
Let us stick to that and be on the
safe side.
