Mr.. Smith was feeling pretty good.
He hadn't heard of the hard times.
He had been too busy preparing his
land for a crop of potatoes. Think
ing there might be something of
more encouraging nature to obtain
from this farmer the News repre-
sentative attempted to draw him out.
81 am clearing UP 40 acres Of land
at Orange Mills,' said Mr.. Smith,
preparatory to putting in a big crop
of Irish potatoes. The land there is
just as good as the Hastings land and
[ expect to make good money this
winter"
"Did you do pretty we'll with your
potatoes last season? ventured the
News man.
"Well, yes, pretty WE'LL" returned
Mr.. Smith. II only had in rs acres
last spring, but I got $4o2o.o8 for the
crop"
"Was that clear of all expenses?"
he was asked.
'No, I had to pay for 10 tons of
fertilizer and my seed potatoes, but
when you consider that I got more
than enough from my corn, planted
after the potato harvest, to pay for
these, I might say that this amount
represented the net earnings of my
farm for the last season"
Just now the orange growers on the
peninsula are selling one of the biggest
crops Of fruit raised in years and at
prices ranging from IS to 100 per cent.
more than ever before received.
And the truck growers about Pa1at-
ka. Their crops are in fine condition
and are just beginning to go forward.
Don't get in the way of talking
"hard times" before they actually
strike you.-Pa1atka News.
The Florida agriculturist., 1908-01-01

Several gentlemen were in Ken
ner1y's hardware store the other day
discussing the outlook for hard win
ter in the industrial world
The discussion was brought about
by an item read from a newspaper
and which stated that the Baldwin
Locomotive Works would soon lay off
5000 men as the result of the cancel1a-
ton of an order for 425 locomotives by
the Pennsylvania Railroad
It was also stated that in the North
Philadelphia district alone more than
$4,000 men will find themselves out Of
employment this winter.
Numerous instances of curtai1ment
in their working force by other large
industrial enterprises were cited, TN
til it was predicted that fully 100000
workingmen in the country would be
out of employment before the winter
was half over.
Just then J. w. Smith, a small
farmer from Orange Mills, stepped up
to Mr.. Kennerly and asked him to
change a $Ioo bill which he pulled
from roll made up of others of a
similar denomination.

A 100000 Tobacco Crop.

Mr.. T. J. Davis, one of Gadsden
county's best citizens and successful
tobacco growers, is the guest of rel
atives in this city. Upon being asked
with reference to tobacco culture in
Gadsden, Mr. Davis stated that his
crop from 22 acres, this year, was sold
for 100000 in cash. When asked how
much of this amount was profit, he
said: ooh I haven't taken time to
figure it up, but plenty. Now 100000
sounds good to us for crop raised on
22 acres.-Marianna Times-Courier.

High Prices For Farming Land.

High Prices For Farming Land.
Good land adapted to the crops
raised in the potato growing, celery,
tomato, or orange sections Of this
state are held at prices which many
consider extravagant. Yet not more
SO than lands which yield lower re-
turns are sold for in other states. The
last number of the Denver Field and
Farm contains an item showing some
of the prices at which lands in Colora-
do are selling. It opens with the state
ment that the large 10000 to $4,000
acre ranches are fast disappearing, be-
ing broken up into farms of 100 to
200 acres. Then it goes on to say that
in the irrigated sections of Colorado,
land adapted to fruit growing is selling
for from $500 to $4,000 per acre. Suflar
beet lands near the factories
bring from $Ioo to $500. Good
potato land is worth $Ioo and inward,
the best cante1oupe lands sell readily
for 5000. At these prices experts are
making annually net profit Of from
ten to twenty-five per cent. Many Of
our growers are doing as we'll, some
of them better Then the prices asked
are not too high. But it is also GER
tain that many hundreds Of acres of
lust as good land for the purposes may
be had in this state for less than one
fourth of the price. Of course they
are not near the old established CEN
ters Of production.
For example, we know it to be
fact that there are hundreds Of acres
of as good potato land as that at Hast
ings to be found in other parts Of St.
Johns and adjoining counties. Of
course Hastings has the advantage Of
being we'll known and buyers will go
there, and growers at other points
would be obliged to ship instead Of
selling to buyers at the depot. Yet
if colony would come together and
buy tract of land they could easily
make their place so we'll known in one
or two seasons that they also could
get buyers in any desired number.
In this last paragraph we do not
mean to confne the idea to potato
growing, but include celery, tomatoes
and all other branches of fruit and
truck raising.
One caution we would give all pros
pective buyers in Florida Do not be
tempted, by the difference in price, to
locate long distance from transpor
tation Land within mile, or even
two, of railroad station or steamboat
wharf would be cheaper at $50 or $1oo
per acre than the same quality of land
ten miles back would be as a gift The
wear and tear on teams and wagons
and the time lost in going back and
forth would more than make up the
difference.

RHEUMATISM.

So little confidence has the average
man in the various cures for rheuma-
tism that he often suffers for years
without making any effort to find re-
lief. He then finds that it has become
chronic. This is mistake, as the
pain can always be relieved, and in
most cases a cure effected by applying
Chamberlain's Pain Balm. The relief
from pain which it affords is alone
worth many times it's cost. 1t makes

KOCH IS BEATEN
ON TUBERCULOSIS
Congress Adopts Resolution Declaring
Bovine Disease Can BE Pro-
pagated by Man.
THE MEETING IN WASHINGTON.
President Roosevelt Addresses Scien-
lists and Lauds Their Work
AS Heroic.

WASHINGTON, Oct. "A signal vic
tory was today won by the opponents
of the theory advanced by DR.. Robert
Koch, the eminent German scientist,
minimizing the danger of human infec-
ton from bovine tubercle bacilh when
the sixth triennial international cons
gress on tuberculosis just before final
adjournment, placed itself squarely on
record in opposition to the views of the
German savant. The body by unani-
nous vote, adopted resolution recog-
nizing the possibility" of human in
lection from the bovine tubercle ba-
cilli. The text of the resolution is as
follows:
Resolved, that the utmost efforts
should be continued in the struggle
against tuberculosis to prevent the con-
veyance from man to man of tubercu
losis infection as the most important
sources of the disease.
THAT preventive measures he con-
tinued against bovine tuberculosis and
that the possibility of the propagation
of this to man be recognized"
KOCH MAINTAINS SILENCE.
Whether or not DR.. Koch has receded
from his position is not known. He sat
through the proceedings without even
so much as a nod of disapproval. 1t is
not believed, however that the German
scientist has modified his views, but
that, rather than provoke anew the
controversy, he declined to openly
commit himself.
An entirely unexpected, but one of
the most pleasant surprises of the clos
ing scenes of the congress was the ap-
pearance for the first time during the
proceedings of President Roosevelt.
TIE presidents appearance was
greeted with tremendous applause and
he delivered a characteristic address,.
He said in part:
PRESIDENT PRAISES SCIENTISTS.
when the first railroad was built
across Panama" said the president, 1T
was with some foundation of truth,
with but slight eXaggeration, said that
every sleeper laid cost the life of a
ing prosecuted on an infinitely larger
scale, of course, than the mere build
ing of a railroad, under conditions
which make the locality stand above

States in point of health.
THE isthmus of Panama, which was
byword for fatal disease, has become
well nigh a sanitarium, and it has be-
come so because of the investigations
of certain medical men which enabled
them to find out the real causes of
certain diseases, especially yellow
fever and malarial fever, and to take
measures to overcome them"
President Roosevelt spoke of the
peculiarly fatal and terrible disease,
the sleeping sickness, prevalent in
Africa, which in one region had killed
100000 out of 100000 inhabitants, and
declared that medical scientists have
shown just as much heroism in the
fight against tuberculosis as ever was
shown by a soldier on the field of
battle. In closing he said:
81 feel that no gathering could take
place fraught with greater hope for
the welfare of the people at large
than this assemblage."

PLENTY OF TEACHERS
All Schools in Mahaska County Can
Be Supplied.

Mahaska county will face no teach
ers' famine this year as it did last
year. At the opening of the term
last fall about one-fourth of the
schools had to be closed on account
of the shortage of teachers. But not
SO this year. There are enough teach.
ers to fill all the schools, and some to
spare.
County Superintendent Chas. II.
Young says the supply will about meet
the demand. There are only a few
schools in the county that have not
secured teachers as yet, but these
places will be filed
There are two hundred and thirty
two positions for instructors In the
Mahaska county. and about two hun.
dred and fifty teachers to fill them.
During the summer 1913 students
and teachers passed the examinations
and were awarded uniform county Ger,
tificates. Besides these, there are
many whose certificates hold good an.
other year. and there are a number OF
state certificates held here.
The majority of the county schools
will open on Tuesday, September
Sth. Several will open next Monday,
while a few will not open until Sep
TENDER 14th.
