TO DESTROY WHITE FLY

A dispatch in yesterday morning 8
Herald conveyed the welcome infor-
nation that the department, of agri-
culture had discovered q parasite
that, it is believed, will destroy the
white fly in Florida and other citrus
fruit growing states.
The insect, or parasite, is said to
have been discovered in India by one
of the experts of the department, and
the animation is given that expert
ments have been carried to point
v here there is no doubt that the
white fly can now be exterminated
To those sections of Florida in
which the white fly has obtained a
habitation, the news will come as an
especial encouragement. For, say
what we will of the prospects of the
orange industry in this state, it's very
existence is threatened by this pest
for which, until this time, there has
been no remedy.
Congressman Frakn Clark, quick to
see anything for the benefit of his dis
trict and state, has already arranged
TO introduce the parasite in Orange
county, in his district, and it is hope
fully expected that the white fly will

CHILDREN'S HOME SOCIETY OF
FLORIDA

Jacksonville, Fla, Dec. 10, 1911.
To the Editor Ocala Banner:
Christmas without children in most
homes doesn't amount to much, yet
this is not so serious as children
without homes, and it is to these little
unfortunates that We desire to direct
your attention, and for them we de-
sire to make this Christmas appeal for
funds.
Never in the nine years work OF
the Children's Home Society of Flor
ida have we been called upon to pro-
vide for so many homeless and aban-
doned children, and never in these
nine years have we been in such real
need of funds.
There are to our certain knowledge
a considerable number of absolutely
homeless children in this state, every
one of whom could be placed in a
good family home, if our society had
the money. In the name, then, of
Him who was the first child to make
Christmas day Of JOY all over this
world, and who later said, Suffer lit
lie children to come unto me, and
forbid them not, for of such is the
kingdom of heaven" we appeal to you
for your Christmas donation to the
work of the Children's Home Society
of Florida.

SHORT CROP OF COW PEAS,


The enormous demand for Cow Peas
asst year carried the price very high.
and as the crop is very shrt and the
acreage is rapidly extending, there
are many indications which point to
much higher prices as the sowing season
approaches.
WHIP POOR WILLOW PEAS.
The Whip poor-wills are generally
preferred in the Central and South, r.,
States. They are bush a r,l. early
maturing and especially desirable for
Peas.
NEW ERA COW PEAS.
New Era's are little earlier and
make more vine than the Whip-poor
@il S.
WONDERFULS. CrAYs AND MIXED
COW PEAS.
For Hay, the Yonderfuls or Mixed
Cow Peas are more productive, they
should slways be planted with an oc-
rasional grain Of Corn, Sorghum Seed,
Kaffir Corn, ETC., which will prevent the
Vines from getting Damaged by coming
In contact with the ground.
BLACK COW PEAS.
Black Cow Peas are little later in
maturing than Clays they make good
growth OF Vine. and are EXCEPTIONALLY
good for medium or poor land aud will
stand almost any amount II wet weather
without injury. We can supply Shin
ney Peas. Red R'ppers, Blackeye Peas
and Sofa Beans.
