Farmers of Escarnbia
Doing the Right Thing.

Escambia county's future as a truck
growing district has much brighter
prospect today than it had one month
ago. The news story in The Journal
of yesterday telling of the organiza-
ton of the farmers Of the Roberts
community for the purpose of grow
ing ten acres of radishes to be shipped
to the northern markets when early
vegetables command high prices is Of
more significance than the average
person may think that it is.
IL is the entering wedge which will
open market for the produce of this
section, and it will hold the farmers
together, and by cooperation they
can market their crops to advantage
and profit.
Lakeland makes a speciality of
strawberries, Hastings of potatoes,
Sanford and Orlando of celery and
lettuce, and if Pensacola can become
known as the section which furnishes
the radishes for the residents of the
SllACS DIT d LAAAAC WITCH IAiCS
viii pay handsome prices for them, it
will mean much for the Escambia
truckers and viii annually turn into
the business channels of Pensa cola
thousands of dollars.
Truck farming is one of the most
profitable businesses in which the
farmers can engage, and while The
Journal does not pretend to know
what may be expected from an acre
of radishes, it Is not unreasonable to
suppose that the ten acres will bring
gross return of approximately So
0O0, and the expense of growing the
crop is small.
Cabbage, potatoes, onions, beans
carrots, tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers
cantaloupes and watermelons are
specially suited to the soils of West
Florida and if the farmers would only
form some kind of marketing organ
ization, plant their lands in these
staple truck crops, and raise enough
hogs to eat up the parts of the crops
not suitable for marketing purposes
they would soon become independently
rich.
Mr.. Hardy is-doing a good work in
getting the farmers together and il
the farmers Of other sections Of the
county will do as the ones of Roberts
have done, they will no doubt find il
to their advantage and profit

Perhaps it will be of interest to your

tween the three. This condition is
eminently proper and satisfac Glory, and

that unite us into community of in

the advantages that we do, needs only

results. We are fortunate in having

MAKING DREAMS COME TRUE
Persistent Advertising the Surest Way
of Realizing Hopes of Most
Business Men.

There is no man in business, no mat
ter what business he may be in. who
does not dream of success. When he
fails to look forward and ceases to
feel that success will eventually be
his, he has arrived at failure.
l, too. have dreamed and am dream
Ing today; but do we put behind our
dreams the energy and force We
should to make them reality?
There is no business. whether 1t be
retail Wholesale or professional,
whose owners do not want 1t to grow
larger and stronger. 1t Is human ma
ture read in an advertisement of
large advertising agency the follow
Ing slogan which. think. is worthy o.
repeating: "Discontent Is the mother
of ambition"
Advertising is a means of acquiring
prestige and leads finally TO the de-
sired demand for your goods. wares,
merchandise or services, provided
they are designed to fill a constant.
daily need of the customer. The only
medium that is regularly read by the
people is the newspaper, and there
fore it is the only one in which you
can present your messages daily and
regularly. Persistent, insistent adver-
tising In the daily papers has been re-
peatedly shown in actual practice to
be pre-eminently the best means of
creating and developing the largest
and most compelling desire for your
goods.
Your dreams will come true provid-
ed you have the energy and backbone
to help them into realization.

IL there is a merchant in your town
Or elsewhere who is the possessor of
a business that will net him $50 per

A small, convenient house that may
be built for $4,000 is just what good
many young people are looking Tor.
The perspective and floor plans here
shown go to make up just such
house.
You can't have everything in little
house the same as in large house,
but you can leave out good many
things that are not necessary; and
that gives an opportunity to retain
the important features. A big living
room for instance is one of the great
luXuries of modern houses.
Not so many years ago everybody
seemed to have a craze for double
parlors. An architect was obliged to
design double parlors If he had to cut
them down to ten feet square each.
1t is a curious comment on human
nature that such foolish fad would
have to run Itself completely out be-
fore people were ready to abandon 1t
for something better But small
houses are no longer built with double
parlors and the owners of old ones
are having the partition taken out.
wherever it is possible, and they are
in that way making the two rooms
into one good, big, comfortable, airy,
sensible living room.
We are learning something all the
time. We have learned better than to
cut the front part of a house up into
small rooms. Another thing we have
learned is to put in windows enough
TO light the rooms and to put them
opposite or on different sides Of the
room wherever possible, and another
thing we are relearning is the use of
an open fire. Good houses are all built
