Good Crop Records Under Farmers
Cooperative Demonstration Work

Realizing the possibilities of Florida
lands, the government has begun to
take an interest in the farmers of the
state. The College Of Agriculture at
Gainesville, the experimental station
and the farmers cooperative demon
stration work are doing much to help
the farmers who have not been OBJ
tanning the best results from their
lands, and are giving to the new
corners the help they need that they
NAV intelIigently cultivate their lands
and raise the largest crops with least
expense and energy.
Bradford Knapp, special agent In
charge of the cooperative demonstra-
ton work, has just issued the follow
ing table which eloquently tells of the
strides being made in agricultural pur-
suits when the proper methods are
employed. Some counties are making
large crop yields already and the lands
are becoming more and more produc-
tive as the years go by.
The bureau of statistics In Its pre-
liminary estimate, Dec. IL, 1911, gives
the average yield of seed cotton for
Florida in 1911 as 3s4 pounds per acre
from 274,492 acres, and of corn as 14.6
bushels per acre from $4,000 acres.

developing a reputation for a most
superior grade Of both sun and shade
tobacco, for which there is strong
market.
One thing which worried the Gads-
den county farmers was the fertilizer
problem. Only cowpen manure pro-
duces the better grades of tobacco and
at certain periods the planters were
forced to buy up herds Of cattle and
keep them in barns for a month or two
so that a sufficient amount Of manure
could be secured for the tobacco fields.
This was both expensive and uncertain
for the cattle could not be procured at
all times when they were wanted. and
the owners of cattle realizing that the
planters had to have them exacted big
prices.
This problem has been solved by en- .
terprising Jackson county farmers, and
1t is so simple that it is a wonder
Gadsden did not adopt 1t. The tobacco
farmers OF Jackson county have gone
into the dairying business. The cows
they are compelled to keep are sufh-
cient TO provide manure for the to-

When you see the postoffice receipts
In a town continually growing and
the business of the Office steadily in
creasing, you may be sure that you
have substantial and growing town.
Not only is the business of the Mari
anna postoface growing steadily, but Il
is growing rapidly, so rapidly, in fact,
that after July ! the office, which Is
now third class, will become a second
class Office. Not a great many post
offices in cities of the population of
Mariana have second-class postoffices
on the contrary, many towns of much
larger population still have third class

PLAYING THE GAME.


And when the last great scorer comes
To write against your name,
He writes not how you won or lost,
But how you played the game"
II 1t is your own game, and 1t has
been played badly, the fault is in
yourselves and is perhaps due to lack
OF ability, application or determination
to succeed. 1t should be the aid OF
all to succeed, at least at his own
game. If perchance you step aside
from the beaten path for a while and
take a chance at the other fellows
game and lose, the result is not a
question of ability and determination
to succeed, but question of judg.
ment. Mems ability, pluck and de.
termination are very frequently
praised beyond measure, while their
judgment is damned to the lowest
depths. It is hard to succeed playing
the other fellows game, and many
an honest, able. determined man is
looked upon as a failure and an easy
mark, but he lost playing the other
fellows game. HE writes not HOW

We were unable to catch more of
the conversation but what we had got
was sufficient to set our heart sing
ing with pride. Had Logan then, at
tanned to the condition where visitors
were impressed with the loyalty and
unity Of her people? With the thought
came echoes of little personal squsb.
bles and few petty chickering's, all Of
them due in large measure to little
political differences. But summed up
in their totally how insignificant they
become as we inclined to view them
with the eyes of the casual visitor to
whom these little things were hidden.
And after all, how seriously had these
minor internal disturbances affected
Logan? II 1t not time that year in
and year out her citizens have been
working for the general uplift of the
community? Have not her various
Observation-Disclosures and Re-
publican alike-been actuated with
desire to promote the general interest
of all? Men may have differed, hon.
estly, in their opinions as to what con.
stituted the best policy, but there has
never yet been any exposure or EVIL
dence Of wholesale jobbery or civic
corruption, such as have besmirched
the record of many-too many-other
American cities. And never before in
her history have the citizens of Lo-
gan been 80 united and. so hopeful for
the future as at present.

In our midst, and may our visitors
continue to carry away with them the

PRICELESS TREASURE.
-

That an honorable reputation is a
priceless treasure is becoming more
manifest every day, and almost daily
tribunals are being called upon to pass
upon the acts of others. 1t is an inn
portant duty and one that should be
considered aside frim bias and the
least faint of selfish desire, for 1t is
a sad thing to unjustly tarnish the
good name of fellow being. II is
likewise an injustice upon humanity
that imposition should be imposed by
one upon another, or by one upon a
community, and the evidence should
therefore be considered most care
fully. One OF the most recent cases
wherein the reputation of a fellow
being was at stake was the case of
Senator Stephenson of Wisconsin. He
was charged with corruption in his
election to the United States Senate.
| Senator Sutherland was a member
of the investigating committee and
closed his argument in favor of the
senator as follows:
Mr.. President, with one other
thought ! think / shall conclude. Ev.
cry member OF the senate who has
practiced law understands how import.

their frankness and candor;" and
wherever there is any conflict in the
evidence the court will not undertake

appointed to investigate this matter
