THE fruit belt that other states
talk of so proudly includes practically

The demand for dairy products is
growing faster than the supply and as
the settlers pour into the state this
will continue.
That's what we want to tell the
hundreds of thousands OF persons

just that, in plain words, and with

will probably begin to rebuild their
sawmills recently burned. The ma
chinery and buildings were destroy
ed and there was no insurance, but,
realizing that nothing is to be gain
ed by delay and also that the de-
mand for lumber in that section is
heavy and increasing, the mill people
are going to have a new plant on
the spot as soon as it can be erected.
The date for the celebration of the
completion of the great Oversee rail-
way to Key West has finally been set.
1t will begin on January 20 and con-
tinue through February 8. President
Taft is to visit Key West during that
period, and many representatives of
foreign powers are expected to attend
and contemplate the magnificent engi.
neering triumph. Plans for the ceie-
bration are going forward and it is
thought that there will be thousands
of visitors to Key West during the
period mentioned. Arrangements are

Performances.

A few more days and Sparks
worlds famous shows will hold forth
in this city for a matinee and night
exhibition, and the rare, unique and
wonderful things that have been
promised on paper will become re-
atty.
The airy riders who, In diaphanous

expansive backs Of beautiful and
speedy circus horses ION the bill

geousness Of tulle and seductive
smile; the elephants will copy their
pictured acts of comedy and go them
one better; the contortionist will
proceed to disentangle himself from
the knots he tied in his responsive
body last year; the acrobatic families
will turn dizzy somersaults and the
clowns will work off their latest COM
edy stunts to the great delight of
the crowds present-we all like the
clowns.
There is nothing on earth like the
circus. 1t is the peoples show par
excellence. 1t is the one great Amer
lean amusement that appeals to all
the people. The expert knows what
is coming every minute Of the show,
but he wouldn't have 1t changed for
worlds. The very conventionalism Of
most Of the performance is what
makes 1t so delightful.
The merit in a big circus like the
Sparks shows is in the fact that
everything in the show is the very
best of its kind There must in
evitably be riding acts, but the riders
are the leaders Of their profession.
There must be acrobats, but the aero
baltic artists and aerialists are gath

best that money can procure.
1t is this superiority In the quail

term for striped taffeta silks. In the

Seals Marvellous Instinct.

The instinct of the seal is marvel
GUS 1t viii leave its young on the
ice in the morning, and, going down
through a hole, remain away all day
swimming in search of food Re
turning in the evening it will locate
Its offspring in the same patch"
among hundreds of thousands of other
baby seals, notwithstanding that the
Ice may have wheeled or drifted 80 or
SO miles during the day from wind
and tide, and notwithstanding that the
patch may extend 80 or 40 miles
from one end TO the other. Whether
this instinct is of the class that en-
ables the bird, without any mark or
chart, in forest with millions of
trees alike, to find its way back with
ease and precision to its nest, do not
know, but ii is one of the wonders In
