Florida's advantages appears in a

Governor of Florida.
The mainland of Florida extends
north and south through 400 miles.
The insular possessions extend
through ~ miles, making 472 miles
from the extreme northern to the ex-
IRENE southern end of the state. 1t
is bounded on the east by the At
lantic ocean and on the south by the
Atlantic ocean and the Gulf of Mexi-
CO, except for distance of As miles,
where it is bounded by the state of
Alabama.
Owing to its extending through 472
miles of latitude, and owing to wa
ter protection, great diversity of
products are raised in the state. In
fact, it is the only state in which
are shipped to the market standard
crops every month In the year. In
the more northern portion Of the state
there are what is known as the red
clay hills. n some Of these coun-

could be easily made to produce as
much of the staple crops as are pro

the United States. AS much as 100

grade tobacco is also grown in some
OF the southern counties, and on san
dy soil. This is far from being an
exceptional production. In many OF
these more northern counties large
pecan trees are in evidence, showing
the adaptability of the soil to their
growth. In one county alone there
are fully 5000 acres planted in pecan
trees. Sea Island cotton CT long sta

counties, however, engage In truck
growing, finding it very profitable. In
the southern counties Of the state cot
ton is not raised. However, l. am sat.

cotton would do well. Still, people
have turned their attention to sugar
cane, truck and fruit growing, and
to cattle. The people Of Florida, ap-
parently localize a certain industry.
In one community the growing Of IT.
ish potatoes is great industry. In
other portions of the state these pO-
tatoes ares grown, and grown very
profitably, yet the growing of such
potatoes is a mere incident. In an
other portion Of the state celery is
the main crop; another strawberries.
another tomatoes, etc. Thus III some
communities it seems as If all the
vegetables are grown, no one particu-
lar crop being peculiar to that par
ticular community.
Thirty-five or forty years ago there
were practically no vegetables ship
ped from Florida, and but little fruit.
Recently an officer Of one of the
three or four trunk lines in Florida
informed me that his road alone ship
ped in one season over $4,000 car
loads Of fruits and vegetables. The
cities of the northern part of Flor
ida are distant from New York a
little over a day. putting our fruits

Florida has 1000 miles of sea coast.
The fishing industry is necessarily
very large. Fish is shipped by ex-
press, on ice, to various portions OF
the country, as far North as New
York, and TO Chicago in the central
Northwest. We are, therefore, fur
nishing the brain food to many peo-
pie of the United States. The citrus
fruits, ORANGES, grapefruit and lem

taste and beautiful to the sight. but
are very healthful Most of these
fruits are enemies to the germs Of

ences that women have by their love
of fun. You can go into any offic.

funny stories. The chances are that
not one of fifty women discuss their
trials light-heartedly. Perhaps it is
because men have such heavy bur

The stove that won't burn, the

young wife to have in them all the
elements Of tragedy; crying in the
kitchen. she may see nothing ahead
but unhappiness.
But if she will view her trials in
the light of a joke, If she can think
how little such things weigh in the

FIN DING FUN
IN THINGS.

IN THINGS.
Do you take life as q tragedy, or
as comedy? Do you weep over
things or laugh over them? Are you
joyous or depressed? I believe the
secret Of serene living comes In find-
ing fun in things. Se-ious-minjed
people have q hard time. They re-
fuse to realize that life is just as
much q playground az it il a battle
field. They insist upon seeing the
clouds on the horizon even when the
sky above 10 clear.
The jolliest woman I know Is one
who has seen much sorrow. She
doesn't make light of this sorrow, or
underestimate 1t. but on the other
hand. the fact Of the real tragedies
in her life has made It imperative
that she shall get as much brightness
as possible out Of little things. She
has to turn the ordinary cares and
worries on with q smile. or she would
be overwhelmed. This woman re-
fuses to treat the servant question

and cranky or careless. she doesn't
