From the Land OF Flowers.
Mr.. Editor:
I have just completed q $50
mile business trip in Florida,
entering the State at Jackson
vile and following the East
coast to Sanford and to the
Western coast to Tampa which
;son a Bay of the Gulf of Mexico.
Then up the Western coast
, parallel with the Gulf of Mexico
stopping at different towns,
among them Tallahassee, the
capital of the State, which is an
old town, e,0O0 population, no
modern improvements and not
even q daily paper, but it has a
semi-weekly. Isuppose it is the
only State Capitol in the Union
but what has a daily paper.
Florida is shaped like boot,
the leg of the boot pointing
down towards the Gulf of Mexi-
co on the South and West, and
bounded on the East by the At
Iantic Ocean, aud the foot OF
che boot adjoining Georgia and
Alabama. Florida is a sand
tau, with the exception Of two
or three counties that I saw.
Land very poor. fiat as a pan
cake, with numerous lakes and
ponds; soil SO poor the roads
wont fork, so poor it can't be
measured, q needle won't turn
in the compass. (Hyperbolical-
ly speaking.) There are somej
few sections of the State that
are hammock or muck" land
as they call it, which is dark
soil. A Northern tourist asked
an old negro how they made
living on this poor land, The
darkie's answer was I tells
you boss We skins allegaters in
the summer and tourists in the
winter. y
They raise oranges, tanger
ines, melons, cabbage, lettuce.
celery, grape fruit. bananas,
strawb berries, and pineappies,
also corn and peanuts. Corn is
eaten in the spring Of the year
by the weevil. Salamanders
bore in the ground and throw
up little beds of dirt as large as
a mans hat.
Jacksonville is the chief city
of Florida, population about
$4,000, situated on st. Johns
River. Steamers come in from
New York, Philadelphia, etc.
Florida is the play ground fori
America. The towns on the
Eastern coast and the Gulf of
sEexico are full Of fine hotels
and bording houses. People are
here from every State in the
Union and froia Canada spend
ing the wi>t,.v. The large
water and i've oak trees and the
palmetto about thirty feet high,
with moss hanging from one
foot to ten on tie oaks is very
attractive. Country very
sParsely settled, houses from
six TO eight miles apart. Most

CONCERNING MEDICINE.

If doctors prescription is not
entirely used, the remainder should
be thrown away, bearing in mind
that, if liquid, the bottle should be
emptied and washed. Not one chance
in a hundred would ever necessitate
the use of the medicine or the same
combination of drugs, unless it be
in the form of linament or some
external remedy, which should be
properly labeled. Most medicines do
not keep well, and; if unnecessary
bottles are kept in the medicine cab
met, mistakes are more apt to be
made, and confusion results. The
medicine closet should be kept sepa-
ate from others, free from damp
ess, and under lock and key, if pos
'ible, remembering to exclude the
ight. Drugs, especially powders, are
injured by dampness.-Suburban

Through the efforts Of John p.
Sullivan, Grand Exalted Ruler OF
the Elks, conflicts in the dates OF
the important convention of 1919
will be avoided.
As soon as il was decided that
the Elks would hold their annual
reunion at Portland during the
week Of July 8, Mr.. Sullivan con-
ferred with officials of the Grand
Army and the Shriners with the
result that the conventions of those
organizations will be held in Los
Angeles in September and MAY
respectively. By urging the sub
ject on members of the Republi-
can National Committee he sue
ceeded in having the date for the
Republican convention in Chicago
set for the week of June Is. He
has started similar negotiations
with the Democratic National
Committee and it is probable that
another week than that chosen by
the Elks will be selected for the
Democratic!convention.

a sigh. Gust put it in plain words,

"Why, she meant-sbe meant

pictures had "a great deal of vital

"Euphemia Jones knows lots and

and Interestingly on the subject"
said Rose Maddar, bridling. "Be-
cause you can't grasp the sutblety of
her expression vitality used in this

not mean something nice, and to
have her say such things about ones

NEW PLANET is LOST.

The astronomical world has found
md lost a new planet and now the
bseryatories OF the world are train
. ,-eir telescopes on the heavens in
The hope OF again locating the
strange little traveller. The new
planet or asteroid, as astronomers
call it, was discovered by Pahsa of
Vienna, and his discovery confirmed
by Pecula of Copenhagen. Accord
ing to the best calculations the plan
et is a lively traveller and has ad-
vanced SO rapidly toward the earth
that it has distanced observation and
is now lost track of.

We advertised to begin our sales
ofloose leaf tobacco at Winchester.
KY, on Jany. 2nd, 1912, decided
it was to the best interest Of the
sellers of tobacco to postpone this
sale until Tuesday, Jany. 9th,
1919. Our reason for postponing
the sale is the fact that three Of
the four companies into which the
American Tobacco 90. has been
divided, assured us that they had
not had time to fully organize
their force of buyers on account
of the American Tobacco Co. hav-
ing done business as formerly, up
to Dec. 31st. 1911. We feel sure
that we will have buyers tn S
week, with instructions to buy to-
bacco at the full market price.
The growers should realize that
we are starting our sales under
very peculiar conditions, such as
have never existed before, and il
will take a little time to get every
thing in shape for business. Our
shipping facilities are as good as
any in the Burley Belt and if the
growers will be patient we will
promise that all will be done to
secure for them the full market
price for their tobacco. Two
of our Board of Directors
have been in touch with the head
men of the tobacco business and
we feel sure that we can promise
our patrons that everything posi-
bile will be done to protect their
interest. We have ample storage
rooms and are in shape to receive
all tobacco ready for delivery

BODY January 2nd. 1t contained
fifty-nine pages of typewriter
matter.
He starts out by heartily recon-
mending every plank in the Dem
ocratic platform and urging the
enactment of laws pursuant thereto.
After making a detailed state
ment as to the States financial
condition, including the deficit Of
$500, 900 now existing, he urges
the Legislators to be careful in
making appropriations unless they
are sure there will be money avail
able to pay the appropriations.
On educational matters he says
there has been expended in the last
year by State and counties Sc, $685.
544 for the common schools. He
recommends either the adjustment

ton or 10 add to the Board enough

succeed the present Prison Com
mission, the four commissioners to
