prettily gowned; and if they choose
too, may move in the best circles III

home is always at least one good

The family has three wholesome
meals every day and the table has
every variety Of meat, fruit and vege-

In the matter of clothes, the father
and mother and children may have as
good as the best, and with reasonable
care there need be nothing to mark
that family in its clothes from the
family of the rich Clothes do not
mark class lines in Florida
In public affairs the average man
may take just as prominent part in
the affairs of his town, his county or
his state, as the banker, the lawyer or
the merchant. There are no caste
lines marked by wealth in Florida.
Measured in comforts and luxuries
and those things material that are
supposed to bring happiness, Florida
is greater than any other state in the
world.
And really that is what counts. The
rate of wages measured by money
may be greater in other states, but
measured in things which make life
worth living, Florida leads them all.

Value Of Dollar in Florida.

Under this title the Orlando Senti-
nal makes comparison between the
difference in the value of a dollar in
this State and elsewhere Of course
the advantage is very largely on the
side of those who live in Florida.
There is no doubt that it is tr1e that
a small income will go very much
farther in this State than at the North.
1t is also true that there is much
less purse proud caste among the
country people and the residents of
small cities and towns, in Florida than
in the Northern States. This is, how
ever, characteristic Of new countries,
and is not an exclusively Southern
trait. The Seminal says:
The average able bodied man in
Florida makes about 5000 a year. He
gets more out of that 5000 than dwell
lers in great cities out Of thousand
dollars.
A dollar will buy more comforts
and luxuries in Florida than it will
buy on any other spot on the globe
The man who makes 5000 a year in
Florida, lives in a nice six-roOm house
surrounded with orange and other
tru1t trees with usually a garden spot
IN the rear Of the dwelling on which he
raises all the vegetables that his fam
lily consumes. If he lives in the cOun-
try, he has a barn, owns a horse and
wagon, keeps COW and some chick
ems and pig or two. His children 90
nicely dressed to the best schools in
the world and are prepared for the
best colleges in the country His

Inspect all Stock.

The following is from the California
Cultivator:
The fact that we are in constant
danger of having new orchard pests
introduced makes it imperative that
no plants of any description should
be allowed to come into California
Cor the United States) from any tor
eign country where it is known that
serious pests exist, except that they
pass through legally designated
quarantine station that must be III
charge Of a competent man that has
made the subject study, not only in
the laboratory but in the field. This
latter qualification is very necessary
one, as it opens up to a man the num-
erous sidelights that do not develop
in the laboratory
The fact that fruit is being con-
stant1y imported into this country is a
source Of danger In Our last issue
we referred to the fruit fly which in
tests apples and other kinds Of fruit in
Australia. It is a pest that not only
renders the fruit worthless but repul-
sive. This last feature is a serious
menace from the fact that it furnishes
an incentive for those ignorant in
things horticultural, to scatter the
pest Suppose for instance box Of
apples imported from Australia, in
which were few apples infested with
the maggots of the fruit fly, first from
the box being sold on the sreeet in
San Francisco, to travellers going to
takes the train for Monterey. Suppose
about the time the train reached Pa
jarO the traveller took a bite into the
apple and opened up mass of nasty
worms. He would not put it in his
grip or pocket, but out the window it
would go. That would be starter
that would infest that section. Should
the same thing happen on Los An
geles train for Riverside, the orange
growers would receive a solar plexus
blow 1t is all important that such
chances be guarded against. Such
pest are worse than anything now in
existence in this country We now
have active men attending to this
work, but they are pOWerless Unless
the transportation companies Coop
crate with them and when plants and
fruit are transported through the
mails, these chances of introducing
these things becomes very great

A New Cure for Snake Bites.

We have lived in this State almost
tWenty-fOur years and during that
time have never seen large rattle
snake, except in a box in captivity.
We have seen a few, less than a half
dozen, small ones of the species call
ed ground ratt1esnakes, we have also
seen a few moccasins along the river
but have never known of any one, in
this part of the State, being bitten by
a poisonous snake Still such acct
dents do happen occasionally, and if
anything can be done to prevent ia
tai result in such a case, we are anx-
ious to do all we can to help Below,
we copy two recipes for the cure Of
snake bite. The first was given in the
Tribune Farmer as a new cure for
snake bite. Yet it is not entirely new,
we read Of it some time ago, and feel
that it probably has so mitch merit
that we endorse the idea that it would
bitten, to have a little package of the
permanganate of potash, with them
at all times: The second recipe was
printed by the Denver Field and Farm,
we never heard of it and give it for
what it is worth:
Probably there is no place in the
world where the mortality from snake
bites is as great as in India. This is
partly because the population there is
exceptionally dense, but also, in
measure, because there are SO many
poisonous serpents in India. Official
returns show that at least $4,000 per-
sons die in that country annually
from this cause, and it is believed that
the real number is twice as large, as
many deaths are not reported to the
authorities. AS might be supposed,
the matter of fighting the effects Of
snakebite has been studied very close
ly in India, and number of remedies
have been proposed Among them is
the bile of an animal, injected into the
veins of the victim. One of the latest
ideas is to make an inc1sion in the
flesh where the bite has been inflicted
and introduce a few crystals Of per-
manganate Of potash, a we'll known
antiseptic drug, which is inexpensive.
AS there are a few snakes left in
America whose bites are likely to
prove fatal, the last mentioned RENE

treatment, Of course. the more hope
full the outlook. For this reason,
hunters who foresee danger would do

PARDOHED BY POPE Plus
Bishop of Verona, Who Has Very
Liberal Tendencies, an Intimate
Friend of the Pontiff.

Rome. March 5.-Monsigneur Romonel-
II, Bishop of Verona, who recently issued
a pastoral letter advocating the principle
of separation Of church and state in
France, has been pardoned for this in
discretion by the pope. who is his init
mate friend
Before he was made a bishop Mon
signeur Bomoneli, who is a leader of
modern Catholics and who favors an
agreement between the vatican and the
QuirInal, was received by the pope. on
this occasion he said to the pontiff:
king Victor Emmanuel has given 81
900 toward my home for emigrants. and
i would like to thank his majesty for
this gift and present my Respects"
To this the pope made reply:
Very well, 1 approve; go and see the
king"
Monsigneur BomoneIi consequently
called upon his majesty and was received
most cordially The conversation was
chiefly about emigration and the hest
means to protect Italian emigrants.

mission into Italy of foreign circulars

~ Orchard was reached the court an
nounced that he was disqualified to sit

In the case IF Meyer, Haywood and
Pettibone. a stipulation was filed pre-
serving the rights of all parties to the
suit until the two leading attorneys may
have time to arrive in Caldwell from the
trial of Steve Adams at Wallace.
Attorney Nugent, on behalf of the de-
Tense filed a motion asking that the
cases be dismissed. Nine reasons were
advanced in the motion. their substance
being that the indictments against these
defendants were found by a grand jury,
March :. 1906, and that the regular term
of the district court at which they were
triabIe was then in session. that the
defendants, upon being arrested and
brought before the court, demanded i'm
mediate trial Immediately after plead
ing not guilty to the charge; that over
their protest the trial was postponed; ;
that said term OF court then adjourned
sine die and that another term of that
court was convened May q, 1906, and
that again on May % they appeared in
refused without good and sufficient cause
and the case was ordered continued on
the calendar; that this term of court
also adjourned sine die, Sept. Z, and that
there should have been another regular
term of court called Sept. ., but for
some cause Unknown to the defendants

not until Nov. u, 1906, was Il convened
This term of court closed Dec. 80 with
out giving defendants a trial. and that
defendants have not applied for continu-
ance at any time or asked to have the
trial postponed.
Attorney Nugent when asked regard
ing the motion, stated that it is the con-
tention Of the prosecution that the tying
of the hands of the state cours by rea-
son Of appeal to the United States su-
preme court was not good and sufficient
ground for postponement OF trial.
