SUBSCRIPTION RATES:
When the Tariff is Revised.

The lead mining interests in the
Occur d'Alene district have united for
the purpose of resisting a reduction of
tariff on lead, that is threatened when
congress meets in special session next
summer to make revision of the tariff
schedules that are now in effect. No
doubt protected interests all over the
land are taking the same action. 1t is
but natural that the man who has his
money invested in manufacturing or in
gathering raw material will want Just
as much protection from outside compe-
tition, principally from those who pro-
duce the same article at lower cost, as
he can get. Washington will be full of
]obbies during the revision of the tariff,
but since the job of revising is in the
hands of the party that is tariffs friend,
the business of the country should not
be disturbed. Producers and manu-
facturers can go right ahead with their
plans without fear that the man-made
laws will interfere with the market for
their goods.
But the new congress will not have
served its full purpose if it does nothing
more than revise the tariff. The object
of the tariff, as it is given us by the
spell-binder, is to protect the American
. laborer, that he may establish a home,
and clothe and feed and educate his
children. 1t is doubted that much pro-
lection can be given the home laborer
so long as the immigration laws permit
foreigners looking for work to come in
any number and from any condition of
life.
The new revision of tariff comes from
a demand in the ranks of the governing
party, the idea having been put forth
that the trusts are the outgrOwth of the
high protective tariff. A duty there
fore rests upon the new congress to do
what it can 10 discover what is the
cause Of the growth Of the trusts. The
idea given may be wrong. The trouble
may be with the incorporation laws,
permitting dividends and prices TO be
reckoned on watered stock. So, going
back TO the demand for tariff revision.
congress will serve the people best if it
will first learn through what means
haze the mighty combinations Of
capital grown numerous and strong.

Truck farming In Eondo.

Atlanta, Ga, April 9th. 'Os.
Dear Mr.. Editor:
In this my closing let
ter OF this series, must tell you and
my good friends of Ordway, about the
truck farming from Sanford to
jacksonville. Nothing In Florida
farming has interested me so much
as this. Sanford Is at head OF naviga-
tion On st. Johns River, and for a
year Or more, has been In the midst Of
vcritable boom, all from the celery
business. About three years ago, some
| lnquisitive Yankee bored a hole down
| through so feet OF sand and rock and
struck flowing sulphur water, fine for
drinking and abundant for irrigation.
The belt was found to extend about
miles on either side OF the river and
for 100 miles In length. Through some
fortunate accident he found that
celery grew to perfection by using a
system OF fsub-irrigation-layin I inch
tiles about 30 feet apart and Is inches
deep. Three crops per year are raised
on same land at an average cost OF
$500 per acre and at present prices
yields $500 per acre, netting the grow
er about $500 per acre. No wonder
prices jumped from $40 per acre for
raw land to $500 per acre.
Land al! ready for the crop, with
wells and tiling in, sells for $500 per
= f,, u l,,,
ped daily from Sanford alone during
the month Of March. The crop comes
in, in February, March and April and
has no competition at these times ex
cept in April from California. As the
area seems very large it must he only
IA matter Of time when the industry
will be ovcrdonc.
About 30 miles south OF jacksonville
is another great garden industry,
while not so fabulous in net returns,
yet is destined to play an important
part in the commercial interests OF
the state. Irish potatoes, said to
equal in quality our famous Greeley
production, are raised. yielding from
300 to 400 bushels per acre and mar
kcted in May and June when old
potatoes are poor. Hastings, Florida,
marketed $50 car loads last year and
several stations near by did nearly as
we'll. This is also In the flowing we'll
district. II one can be immune from
malaria and mosquitoes, see no reason
why anyone should fail here to lay up
Il treasure on earth from a moderate
sized truck farm in Florida.
a week spent at Daytona Beach
was highly enjoyed-especially its
bathing in surf and fishing In Halifax
river. Here is located the world
famous auto track. on hard and
smooth beach 200 feet wide and 20
miles long. Here, annually. the Van
derbilts and Astors, the Belmonts and
the Goulds, the Frenchman and the
Italian, all bring their machines and
run at the dizzy speed of 100 miles per
hour! Several young bloods are
MANNED or killed at each yearly
parade but what is that compared to
the winning Of the prize, which makes
you the captain Of this great industry:
A few days visit at Atlanta with
our son, Roy, completed our Southern
trip. This growing and wealthy city
has fine water for drinking, but moth.

race riot are about forgotten and each
party is quietly working together
Race prejudice still exists, but it will
be long time before Atlanta gives
her colored brother an open saloon
again.
