Milton is most advantageously situat-
ed in many ways, transportation be-

to Pensacola and other points. 1t
also has a large outlying back coun-
try and here farming and turpentine
operations are carried on. Our visit
here, to the home Of ]. T. Diamond,
superintendent Of schools, drew to its
close and we journeyed on to De-
! Funiak.
We were hoping to find more than
we did; we were disappointed. First
we noted an absence of adequate pro-
vision for the Chatauqua crowds
which annually meet here. The hill
surrounding the lake would be SO
much more inviting were 1t sodded and
seats provided here and there. The
much talked of Alpine Spring we found
to be a broken cement and stone basin,
| somewhat well-shaped, with an iron
pipe through one side, from which
| trtckled a stream Of water whose
source was anything but inviting
There were various sanitary conditions
which needed looking into very care
fully, in view Of the fact that crowds
are brought here yearly through the
Chatauqua advertisements. DeFuniak
has many attractive features natural
| ly and otherwise, but we cannot but
feel the disappointment which comes
when one has expected much and
found little. All her defects are those
which public spirit and an eye 10 the
beautiful, the artistic and useful could
most readily overcome. Let us hope
this may be done. AS to the railroad
accommodations they did not seen
fully adequate to properly and COM
fortably handle the ChautauQus
crowds. The result seems to be 9
general scrimmage and scramble Al
times, which makes II almost unsafe
for ladies without an escort to try tc
travel there.

our young, progressive school teacher
and superintendent said to me:

neat and beautiful surroundings and
we will have the good roads. We will
have a class Of citizens who will not
be satisfied with a cow trail and q
cabin. but whose alert, trained, pro-
gressive minds will demand and
achieve the surrounding private and
public conditions, which shall be in
harmony with their mental life. And
this. education must begin in the school
room, for all homes cannot or do not
furnish it."
Mariana is another lovely place,
judging from our f1eeting glimpse. We
noticed all through this part Of the
country a slightly rolling appearance of
the land which added greatly to its
natural beauty. We noted many nice
looking fields and prosperous looking
farms as we passed.
Sneads lies about six miles from
River Junction, and here the same in
dulating surface gives a charm and
variety to the view. There is a large
surrounding country, many extensive
plantations run on the tenant plan, or
what Is commonly termed, by rent
ers."
We noted several churches here. but
we thought the school building entire
~ out Of keeping with the people and
the place. There was nothing at all to
recommend about It; 1t struck US as
being unsanitary, poorly lighted, espec-

work. and badly ventilated. The corps
OF teachers seemed to be excellent
above the average, we thought, and
there was evidently a very good at
tendance. Again we saw that lack OF

We learned one thing which In Jus

| say which seem to be constantly going
on. Pointing to the shore where the
| palmetto palms were growing, a lady
said to me:
Il saw pictures of those places used
as adver ,isements, and these advertise
ments stated that those were cocoa
nut palms growing wild. A man and
/ MS family, homeSeekerS, were induced
to come here. He had invested about

suits in injury to what advantages the
place might really possess in other

whatever it's other advantages, can
hope to appear at it's real value.
There is, we believe, the erection Of
a new school building now under con-
sideration. The streets of Sneads
could be made exceedingly attractive
and there is a small lake near the
school building which, with the proper
care. and surroundings might be made
really beautiful.
Sneads has its social side, and a
most attractive one, too. We shall re-

along the shores, as though some giant
god of industry had passed by and
strewn small villages along his way.

himself very much.

1t was our opportunity recently to
journey from the southern county of
Alabama on through Florida as far as
st. Andrews.
As we made the first part of our
journey across country in a buggy we
had fine opportunity to see the great
Improvement everywhere noticeable.
Where a few years before a log cabin
with its surrounding "deadenin" for a
field was token of the stttler's home,
pretty, commodious, modern cottages,
some OF very pretentious style, are
seen, with fields cleared, often of every
stump, fences neatly built, in the ma
jority OF cases of wire, water con-
veniently placed, and a general air of
up to- date progression everywhere.
One of our stopping places was Bluff
Springs, with it's venerable oaks, Its
splendid water and its lovely views.
We knew Bluff Springs of old and we
grfeved to note, that it did not seem
to be keeping in tone with the general
note of progression. Like so many old
places, 1t needs waking up by a town

need to be brushed away, for 1t is, or

We passed through, not because we
really wanted to, but this was part
of the program. We seem to be at

familiar places which the hand of

FIND NEW COTTON PEST.
Bibb County Man Loses Is Acres of
the Staple in Two Weeks.

bIIG TWO w CehSs
A new cotton pest has been found
within four miles of Macon that is
puzzling all the experts. The insect
first made it's appearance on the farm
of G. J. LanstOn about six weeks ago,
and up to date it has destroyed Is
acres of cotton, and is still uncheck-
ed in spite of all that can be done.
The bug as it first appears is ex-
tremely minute. 1t takes the form
Of brilliantly red specks on the stems
and leaves of the plant. These
specks, it seems, are the larvae from
which the adult insect grows.
The full grown bug is also a
brilliant red in color, and once start
ed to work on the plant it strips both
the leaves and the fruit from the
stalk and leaves the plant withered
and dead.
The pest first made its appearance
on the farm of Mr.. LanstOn some six
weeks ago. 1t was restricted to a
small area of the cotton field The
cotton was in fine shape at that time,
and it was expected that the yield
would be about one and a half bales
to the acre, but two weeks ago in
spite of attempts to check the spread
of the bug it had cut a clean swath
through the field and had utterly de-
stroyed ten acres of the crop. The
spread of the pest continued and now
there are fifteen acres done for and
no relief in sight, as the experts are
not only unable to suggest any rene
dy, but fail to find a name for the
insect that is causing the trouble

HOW CAN DEVOE DO 1T?

Why, do you think, can Devoe sell
pure paint as low as others sell adul-
terated paint?
There are 80 or 40 or so different
makers of paint that rank, in way,
as 'first-class;" they have their re-
gions; ones region is large; anoth-
er's small; everyone is "first-class'
in its region.
OF these 80 or 40 or so one is
best, another next, and 80 on down;
but the prices are all the same, or
about the same-you can buy one
far less than another, though; per-
sonal matter sometimes.
But how, do you think, can Devoe
sell the best for no more than the
rest? The answer is: 1t costs less to
sell it; more to make, less to sell
Reputation helps sell it. Its 15O
years help sell it.
