FLORIDA
AT THE HEAD.

According TO the officially Good
Roads Book, Published by the Highway
Association of the United States, tond
issues for roads and bridges voted in
1912 iu eleven OF the Southern states
amounted 10 over twelve and half mil.
lion dollars.
With The exception of Kentucky and
Florida, none of the Southern states
have as much as per cent, of their pub.

per cent. Florida II per cent.
In the same connection, the last issue

more says: "Florida-in proportion TO
lis population-iS leading the country in
road building" 1t also gives credit to
this state for leading the South, if not
the entire country, in the construction
of brick roadways. The Record, in a
review of the situation, closes with this
statement:
at looks now as though Florida
would, within the next few months,
lead the entire South, if not the country,
in the building OF brick highways. In-
deed, in proportion TO population, Flori
da is probably already leading the coun-
Try in road building"
This is rather strong, but our people
must keep busy, and show that il is so.
In the last bulletin of the office Of
public roads il was stated that at the
close of 1909, 500 per cent. of the roads
in the United States were improved.
This represents gain in the total road
mileage improved for the five year pc.

other words, the percentage of improved
roads has increased during this period
from ia to 500 per cent.
Putnam County is in the area OF good

be made, but better than in many other
counties of the State. And Palatka has

James w. Wright, a negro of DeLand,
purchased a good,siled grove property
west of the town al low price after the
1895 freeze. He went 10 work and
built it up, and has been getting a good
income ever since. This year il is said

The Intelligencer is not basing these
