LIGHT TO BE A LIVE WIRE

L. S. Light, member-elect to the
legislature from Marion county, is,
We believe. going to prove himself a
live wire in the house when it con-
venes next month. He writes 70 a
constituent, in regard to changing the
present assessment law. that he will
try to make justices Of the peace in
each precinct assistant assessors,
whose duty it will be to take in all
returns in his precinct, compelling
him to administer an oath to each tax
payer handing in returns; to make
each return, whether too low or too
high, right: to report all persons in
the precinct subject to road duty to
Tie county commissioners. This will
increase assessments, Mr.. Light be-
lieves. % per cent. 1t will furnish
grounds for county commissioners to

THE wAUcHULA PROSPECTS
Beans in Large Quantities Are Ready

Beans in Large Quantities Are Ready
for Market-PIenty of Rain
The Wauchula Advocate says that
not in years have the prospects for
a good spring crop of vegetables been
as bright in the Peace river section
as they are today. The rains this
week also came in an opportune time
for Oange bloom, and altogether
things look bright for this section of
the country. and every indication
points to Wauchula continuing to
grow and prosper.
By this time next week hundreds
of crates of beans will be leaving
Wauchula daily. The frost last Fri.
day morning absolutely did no harm
to the crops, even the cucumbers es.
Gaping without injury. The warm
weather this week, with warm nights,
has made a great change in the looks
Of the crops, and the prospects for
a bumper crop grow brighter. There
is by far the largest acreage OF beans
ever planted here. and the improve.
ment in the looks of many fields the
past week has been remarkable.
Now that the danger from frost is
past and there is plenty of moisture
in the ground our truckers can feel
confident of a good crop, and all in
dications point to their receiving
good prices for their products.

Good Prospects for Catalogues and

Anthony is doubtless the greatest
shipping point for cantaloupes in the
state, or in the south, for that mat
ter, and the more than one ton of
seed that were planted within a ra-
dius of five miles from the town on
upwards of 1000 acres have come up,
and the missing places have been re-
planted, and the outlook for a crop is
very promising. The growers look
forward to this being a very profta-
bic crop.
The watermelon acreage is below
the average, also tomatoes, but beans
are up to normal. Cabbage was plant
ed late Several who do not generaIly
plant cabbage prepared land and
planted late on account of the failure
of the fall crop in the north. The
cabbage, with late paintings of let
tuce, are moving freely and prices are
fairly good.
Within the last few years large
areas of first class pine land have had
the timber cut off, and much of that
land is beginning to be brought I'M
