HOW ARE YOU SHIPPING YOUR FRUIT?
ARE YOU GETTIMG THE MAXIMUM PRICE?
REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD BELONG TO
THE FLORIDA CITRUS EXCHANGE.

Growers, why place your fruit in the
hands of spectators and brokers for hand
ling whose only object is to get their
brokerage, regardless of the welfare of the
owner of the fruit? The Florida Citrus Ex-
change has not, up to date, sold of
desirable sizes of Parson Brown oranges under
$780, f. o. b. Florida, and yet adj
vised from all quarters that Parson Brown
fruit is being sold as low as $l.75 f. o. b.
We have in mind one district in Texas
where one broker there is handling the
counts of four or five of our Florida specu-
lators and brokers; playing one account
against the other to beat down prices. Yet
the Exchange is selling fruit in territory
contiguous to Texas at our standard price;
$3.50 f. o. b. Florida.
Do you realize that this is YOUR fruit
that is being used to beat down the value
of your neighbours fruit and the entire crop
of Florida; and that if you did not have the
Florida Citrus Exchange to bear this burden
that you unwittingly impose on it, that
your fruit would soon go begging as it did
before there an Exchange, and that your
grove would do likewise?
If you had been in prison for long
time and some friends came along and gained
your liberty for you, fed you, put new
clothes your back and sent you on your
way rejoicing, would you commence to fight
those friends you reached home,
and furnish ammunition to try to destroy
them? This is what you are doing. You
did not think of it that did you?
The same force is still active FRI n whom
you were recently released, waiting to bind
you hand and foot. Are you going into
their trap, or furnish them with your fruit
to bait it? Use your head and think lit
tie. 1t had not occurred to you this way.
Don't fight your emancipators; give them
your aid. You have a. duty to perform, it is
clear. If you intend to grow citrus fruits,
join the progressive movement-the Coop
erative Organization-th Florida Citrus Ex-
change, which was born of the growers
child of necessity, and which is growing into
great strength and usefulness.

SPEAKER CLARKE DE-
FENDS TARIFF LAW
Placed Root of New York, Joe Can
non, Hilles, Hadley and Mann as
Greatest HOwlers in America

Washington, D. c., Dec. 49,
Speaker Clark left the chair in the
house today to challenge the patriot
ism of calamity bowling Republicans
after Minority Leader Mann had
made a speech picturing the country
in the throes of business and indus
trial depression as a result of Dem
ocratic tariff legislation.
AS the greatest calamity howlers in
America, the speaker presented Sena-
tor Root of New York, former Speak
er Cannon, chairman Hilles of the
Republican national committee, for
mer Governor Hadley of Missouri,
and Representative Mann. Vigorous
ly defending the new tariff law, Mr..
Clark declared that if there had been
any hold-up in business it was simp-
ly because prudence was being exer-
missed. He said the wish was the faith
er of the thought with Republican
leaders, and suggested that it was
strange that no one else had seen the
sign of failing prices.
"These men," continued Speaker
Clark, propose to get into the news
papers every day, day after day, that
the country is going to the duce,
and people that never thought of
panic will begin to study about it.
BY all thinking men this must be
considered monstrous and unparalel
performance"
Representative Mann had painted
a gloomy picture of the country I'M
der the Democratic tariff and threats
of political control of banking and
currency. Throughout the country
today" he said, wherever men are
congregating there is now a quiet dis
cussion going ON which, when cold
weather strikes the country will end
in roar and howl that will pene-
trate even the ears of the deaf states
men on the Democratic side of the
aisle. Men with wives and children
who were willing to work at any
work three months ago are now seek
ing the opportunity. The president
could do much toward reviving confid-
ence if he would. The Democratic
side could do much, but that would
wrong the politics which they have
talked about on the stump for years."

to your friend and he'll think you want
to fight.
1t is evident that the awards for the
Nobel prize for literature surely were
not influenced by the acoustics in
this instance. Most of the English
commentators explain the award by
saying that we are getting over our
narrowness and provincialism by 60
ing so far east. Let us seek some
consolation in the thought anyway.
Not being so very well up at this time
on the particular style and class of
poetry which finds expression in the
Bengal tongue of which Mr.. Tagore
is the accepted representative, we can
not well find fault with this conclu-
sion of English critics but we are in
clined to the belief that it is not so
much anti-povincialism in this in
stance as it is occidental broad mind
edness. 1t were time anyway that
we are learning something about the
size of the world and that all the
wealth and culture and thought in it
is not confined to the Saxon tongue.
The smattering of eastern culture
which we have had has not impressed
us sufficiently to prepare us for the
shock to the average western mind.
1t must not be overlooked that there
has been of late a marked Celtic re-
vival, that arts and politics especial
ly have been drifting eastward, that
the luminous lights of Maeterlincks
Bergson and others have

done for centuries past. Interest in
the Orient has been quickened as

Foolish NotOriety

We learn from press reports that
Miss Elizabeth Wetzlar Colt is well
known in America. We are further
informed that she has just been mar
RED in London and by way of making
herself conspicuous, she refused in
the marriage ceremony to serve and
obey her husband claiming that it is
a moral indignity. Miss Colt no
doubt had a personal right to refuse
to submit to such moral indignities,
but what a fool does she make of her
self in thus refusing assent to the
fornaities of wedding ceremony,
or why not have it understood before
. the ceremony is pronounced that GER
tain changes are to be made? The
average bride means and thinks "a
bout as much about serving and obey
ing her husband as he does about en-
downing her with all his worldly goods,
etc. 1t is all well enough to say what
you mean and mean what you say,
but if we were to dispense with all

GREEN FEED FOR POULTRY
IN WINTER TIME

Do not overlook or neglect the hen.
Her business is small one it is true
but taken in the aggregate at the end
of year it is big thing to the farm
ers of Arkansas. The hens are not
doing much now. 1t is their holiday
as well as ours. The price of eggs
is high, and fresh eggs are scarce.
The best way to get eggs is to look
after the hens little. See that they
can get plenty of fresh water every
day. See that they get some meat
scraps, ground bone and oyster shells
too, if you can. The most important
is a green feed during the winter,
when there no green feed. The
way to make it cheap is to use oats.
Fill tub or bucket nearly full of oats
Pour warm water over them and let
stand all night. Next day put lay
er of oats aboutan inch deep on an old
burlap sack, laid on top of some
boards. Cover over with another
sack, and spread on another layer of
oats, and then another sack, and so
on until all the oats are spread
Then wet the whole pile every day
or two with warm water and keep in
warm place, where it will not freeze
until the oats sprout. When the
sprouts get two or three inches long
begin to feed the chickens, and con-
tinue as long as it lasts. You can get
the idea from this and devise various
methods along the same line to meet
your own convenience in making oat
sprouts.
You will find this to be one of the
best and cheapest feeds for chickens
that you can get, and it will cause
the hens to lay earlier and oftener
Remember that | have some fertilizer
and alfalfa bulletins. You may have
one if you want it. The fertilizer
season is now here or will be in few
weeks.
Right now is the time to breed your
sows. The pigs will arrive in the
spring when the weather is mild
enough for them to live and thrive,
and then as soon as the grass is
ready for pasturage the pigs will be
getting ready to eat grass. They
will grow fine then.
This is the best season of the year
to breed the cows too, so the calves
will arrive next fall in good weather
and get a good start before winter
comes on. Fall calves are better than
spring calves. Think it over and see
| if you do not agree with me on this
A merry Christmas to you all.
