But take on my hat to the Florida
flea. He would attract the notice OF
even the most leather-iike skinned in

In the back woods they call him a
chigre. II may be that that Is his
real name. but he looks like and acts
very much like a California flea. of
about thirty-horse power. The chigre

In California they have sands on the
seashore ana zeas in the sands. In
Florida sand Is everywhere-it IL one
vast sand covered iand--and a flea

a fea grabs you. and you can't step
anywhere In the back woods without
stepping in the sand or the water.
The feas are especially active
around the ankles and about the only
safe way to go out Of the house is
to wear rubber boots or rubber hose.
In California ieas seem to prefer
dogs. IS they do In most countries.

Florida has about all the kinds OF
bugs known to the bug books. The
orange tree has more different kinds
OF bugs than the apple tree. and the
orange grower must spray his trees
about three times to once for the ap-
pie grower. The vegetable grower
has all kinds of bugs and worms and
creeping things to conquer. The
house wife has more bugs to deal
with than both orange and vegetable
growers combined.
With all the bugs they raise some
pretty good oranges. some fine vege-
tables, some excellent tobacco and
have some happy homes and sleep

Our Canon City boys did not seem 20
be able to cope with the excellent and
perfect bail playing of the boys from

Canonites. found that his delivery
was hit at every opportune stage Of

The ground was not in very good
shape for fast playing but the Coal

our boys easily. Lack of team work
and weak spots in the lineup was the
principal cause OF defeat. Our boys
received six hits but they were scat

heartily at his experience.
The wagon approaching from the op-

fair rate OF speed. There was no
chance for the approaching wagon to
swerve from its course on the narrow
bridge roadway. The presidents
chauffeur realized the situation In
