Possibilities OF FLORIDA SOIL.
{ Continued from page q.


son I have seen several instances of
crops produced on Florida sand, which
it would be difficult to equal in any
other State, either in quantity, quality Or
profits. Probably some who read this
may be inclined to think this statement
too sweeping. However, those who have
read the three preceding articles Of this
series; viz, the one on "Beets,' that on
"Sweet Corn" and lastly on "Straw-
berries" will be ready to acknowledge
that the evidence is very strong.
It is not very many years ago that
Hastings, now so widely known as
center of a great industry, was not
known outside of its own county, and
land which now sells readily at from
$1OO to 5000 per acre could be bought
for from SIS to $40.
Sanford is now thriving city, and
the center of great celery and lettuce
producing region Yet the Sanford
boom is of much more recent date than
that of Hastings. Only a very few
years ago two large tracts of land near
that city were sold by the owners, the
first for rs cents per acre and later the
other for $125. The spectators who
invested in these tracts made fortunes
from the deals, as they are now valued
at from $1OO to $500 per acre. Nor are
these fictitious speculative values; the
lands are producing crops which would
pay an enormous interest on these es-
timated values, after paying all expenses
of growing and marketing them were
paid,
But these two sections have no mon
opoly on the production of their special
crops. Within a few weeks past have
seen thousands of acres in this same
county, which are capable of producing
as large crops of potatoes, of as good
quality, as were ever seen at Hastings.
Most of the land could be bought at
prices ranging from S. to $40 per acre,
and much of it could be drained, if
the work were done in large tracts, at
a cost not to exceed $40 per acre. Of
course, the land would need to be
cleared, and requires liberal applica-
ton of fertilizer, but, in most cases, the
clearing would be an easy job
Like all Florida sand the soil is de-
6cient in potash, and that element is
especially necessary to the production
of good potatoes.
While Sanford has become widely
celebrated as a celery shipping center,
yet the most profitable celery crop of
which | have ever heard in this State
was grown on the west coast south Of
Tampa
The possibilities of Florida soil de-
pend largely upon the enterprise of the
owner. Good crops of vegetables are
grown by the use of commercial fer
tilizers alone, yet if you can have good
supply of stable manure, you will find
that you will have better results, pro-
vided that you do not neglect to add
liberal application of commercial fertil-
izer which contains large percentage
Of potash.
The Florida agriculturist., 1910-01-01

Then the Old-t1me blacksmith has been
taught that the frog is too long, as If
nature did not know best. So he cuts
away at it, taking out all the old tissue,
regardless or ignorant of the fact that
by natures decree the older parts of the
| frog will shed just as soon as the under
part is matured and ready for use. But
the blacksmith cuts the protecting layers
away and exposes delicate tissue that is
not yet in condition to come in contact
with the ground
Nature bent the corners of the wall of
the foot, and brought them towards
the frog; these are bars intended to keep
the walls from bending in. The black
smith thinks they don't look we'll, so
he cuts them off, ito make the foot grow
WIDER" that is the reason he gives, and
he next cuts the V in the side of the
frog to widen the heels" The finishing
touch in the ruin is given when he rasps
all over the outside of the hoof and de-
stroys the oily tissue that nature put
there to keep the foot from drying out.
The result of all this malpractice is just
the opposite of that designated by the
blacksmith With the destruction of the
bars, the natural braces, the heels shrink
together; how can they help it? Con-
traction of all parts of the foot is the
inevitable result.
But there is a remedy. Don't let the
blacksmith have his own way, if it is
the usual Old-tlme way. Insist on your
right to have your horse shod accord
ing to your own directions Stand by
and watch. See that the sole is not
touched; that no cutting whatever is
done on the frog, tissues or heel. See,
too, that the shoe is made to fit the
foot, not the foot the shoe Don't let
the rasp be used on the hard varnish of
the hoof, and only little where the
nails are clinched. And be sure that the
nails are not too long, so as to touch
the sensitive tissues You would not
like a nail driven into your own foot.
Bear in mind that the intelligent shoe
ing of horse will lengthen his useful
ness by several years at least, and add
not little to his comfort The foot of
a horse needs care from the time he is
weaned. On the growth of the foot de-
pends the growth of bones and body and
the action of the coming horse On his
action depends his commercial value.
Never forget that wet or damp stable
will spell ruin to the feet almost as COM
pletely as the blacksmith.
A liberal feed of grain rich in albu-
minoids and mineral constituents will
make tough, horny, durable feet and
bones. A horses feet may be big and
fine looking, but if they are not built of
the right materials they will not last
as they should. "No foot, no horse"
is good motto for the horse owner
to keep in mind Anther thing is that
horse used almost entirely on country
roads need not be shod at all. Nature
never meant him to be, and the wild
horse has perfect hoofs and fine action
because his feet are as nature made

THE HORS IS FOOT
Some of the Inhumanties Commonly Practiced
by the Blacksmith
HELEN HARCOURT
BY HELEN HARCOURT
by the Blacksmith

The foot of horse is delicate piece
of mechanism, but is seldom recognized
as such either by the owner or by the
ignorant blacksmith. Both are apt to
regard it as mere piece of bone, to be
cut, rasped, burned and nailed as most
convenient. But it is something more
than a piece of bone, a beautiful piece
of Workmanship perfected by the Mas
ter-Workman of the universe. The Lord
put that foot on the horse, and it always
fits him until man interferes with its
perfect development. 1t can not be
abused without a serious injury. In
effect, the foot is practically the horse
himse1f-no foot, no horse.
The foot looks from the outside like
a piece of solid wood, but it is really
horny box filled with blood vessels and
nerves. Only a quarter of an inch in
tervenes between the outside and the
sensitive parts inside, and from the bot
tom of the sole to these same delicate
organs there is only from a quarter to
half an inch
Within this horny box there are thou
sands of horn-like leaves, and between
each of these is a flesh leaf full of blood
and nerves. Nature knows her busi-
ness, and while the feshy leaves produce
the horny leaves, they do not crowd each
other, but fit Snugly-unleSs man inter-
feres.
The feshy leaves on the outside pro-
duce the wall, and those on the bottom
made the sole. There is a little band
around the top, and the outer part of
the foot grows down from this band
and secretes the outer varnish-like layer
that protects the foot All this when
the foot is allowed to develop as nature
intended
But when the horse has been shod
for few years by the ordinary black
smith, a deteriorating change takes
place: the heels contract, the soles be-
come COncave Or convex, and sometimes
have corns; the frog wastes away; the
walls are no longer smooth, but rough
and dry, and are not uniform in shape
AS the sole contracts, the horse becomes
stiff and sore, and feels just as his own
er does when he wears a tight shoe,
for that is just what happened to the TN
lucky animal. A tight shoe causes pres
sure on the blood vessels, the sensitive
parts are pinched, portion of the nour-
ishing circulation is checked, and the
foot ceases to grow.
The ordinary blacksmith holds fast to
old traditions. One of these is that the
sole should be pared until he can make
an impression on it with his thumb. He
cuts away two-thirds of the wall and
comes down to the sensitive tissues.
Then he rubs the wall over with a hot
iron and dries out the new horn. The
result is that the horse feels everything
he steps on, because he has been robbed
of the protecting layer that nature gave
him. He feels as his master would if
compelled to walk over rough, hinty
ground with bare feet or thin-soled
shoes.
