AN IMPORTANT MATTER.

Under date OF July 23rd the Jack.
sonville Board OF Trade addressed the
following letter 20 the mayors OF all
towns, boards OF county commission
ers and to every commercial Organi-
zation in Florida regarding the raising
OF funds for the presentation Of a
silver service to the battleship Flor
ida:
Dear Sir: At the last session of
the Legislature the bill introduced 10
appropriate $1,000 towards the pur-
chase OF a silver service for the bat
tleship Florida failed Of passage, and
IL now behooves US to get 20 work
and collect same by public subscrip-
ton.
This Board Of Trade. having taken
the initiative in this matter, now pro-
poses that We collect from $1,000 TO
$4,000 by general subscription from
Hal over the State. We think IL Ia a
very great compliment that the larg-
est battleship In the American navy
10 named after our State, and Il
should be fittingly recognized by hav-
ing a handsome silver service on
which could be traced the beautiful
history of Florida, from It's early dis
covery and settlement.
when the amount Is collected IL
is proposed to have the Governor ap.
point a representative committee 20
look after the details, as well as to
present the service, In the spring Of
1911.
I'VE respectfully urge upon you
the great importance Of this matter.
and ask for your hearty cooperation
by starting subscription lists in your
community at once. Make remit.
tance to the Jacksonville Board of
Trade. which will act as custodian
OF the funds and make acknowledge
ment through the press; and IL n
sufficient amount cannot be collected,
then amounts in hand will be re-
turned 10 subscribers; but we must
not. at the start. acknowledge such q
word as failure"
This Is an important matter, and
Gainesville and Alachua county
should contribute literally towards the
purchase Of the service. II Is the
custom OF every State to present
such a service TO the battleship nam
ed after the commonwealth, and Ger.
tainly our own State will not be the
only one to fail to show its appre-
citation Of this recognition on the part
OF the National Government. II Is
to be regretted that the Legislature
failed TO make an appropriation for
the purchase OF this service. but
such Is the case. and IL now behoOves
the people Of Florida TO do as indi,
viduals what a negligent Legislature
failed to do for them. II Mayor
Davis will open a subscription list
for the purchase OF this silver sery.

way possible.

BARLEYS FINE YIELD
Ranks Near Top of List as Money Getter for Imperial Valley
 Ranchers.

The people of Calexico are probably not aware that barley is one of the farm products of the Imperial valley which ranks near the top of the list as a money getter.
 Fifty thousand sacks were shipped from Calexico in the past six weeks, the growers receiving $75,000 in cold cash for the same.
 Ten thousand sacks are stored in the depot warehouse and twenty thousand sacks are held in reserve in the field for higher yrices.

Special to Republican.
Boone, May 29.-Contractor Gary, of
Denison, one of the biggest contractors
In the west. has taken firm stand
against the use Of cigarets, and in his
thousands of dollars worth of con-
tracing which he is to do in this city
this summer, not a sigaret fiend will
be employed. When Gray came to
Boone, he got busy securing the best
help possible. and at Fourth and Linn
streets he erected a big tool house, for
the paving gangs. He is paving Fourth
street east of Story and is going to get
the work done as rapidly and as good
as possible. He got busy formulating
some rules which are interesting. 10
say the least. Posted in conspicuous
place in the tool house. is large sign
which reads something like this:
If you smoke cigarets, don't ask Tor
work"
This sign has been seen by all of the
employees of the contractor, and dur
ing working hours and even at noon
time when the men eat their meals.
the soothing cigaret is not in evidence.
Mr.. Gary figures that if his men spend
time IN rolling pills, borrowing matches
etc, he will lose out in the long run. so
forbids the use of them while in his
employ.
