Mr.. Mc7ae is a turpentine man and
farmer, and his several farms are

He is one of the big developers or the
county.
After supper as we drove back to
Milton under the respondent stars Oh
a Florida night, with coats 6uttoned
up to protect us from the cool night
air, Mr.. Smithwicl< told me something
of his plans for clearing and settling
the several thousand acres of rich
farm land which he owns in that sec
ton. On his 6o0-acre farm near jay,
he is demonstrating what can be done
with Florida soil. On his other lands
in the Coldwater district he proposes
to locate farmers who viii develop
the latent resources of this combina-
ton OF soil and climate, and he sees
in the near future a thicFly settled
and intensely productive community OF
prosperous farmers. He is one OF the
men who are building for the future
and building in the only way that is
sure to produce material ana lasting
results.

Florida, the possibilities Of Florida soil,
and the delights and health Of Florida

servation, I know about these things.

the facts and the conditions are. No
one should buy land without seeing II
any more than he should buy suit or

in Florida, her resources and POSSIBLE

RANT, that looked to me like it was
good for sixty bushels OF oats to the
acre, but which they viii cut green for
hay. Last year this cat hay made two
tons of hay to the acre, worth s22 90
per ton on the ground, and that was
followed by a. pea vine and Mexican
clover crop that produced two tons of
hay to the acre, worth $4,000 per ton
on the ground.
With such land as this, in a climate
where two and three different crops
are possible on every acre each year,
is there any reason why a farmer
should waste his time and substance
growing only one crop a year further
north?
Mr.. Smithwick's farm is managed by
A. s. stephens, practical farmer,
who has an interest in the property,
and came to Florida from Alabama,
and whose faith in the Florida climate

of keen intellect and shrewd business
judgment and tact, he has quietly

built an impregnable stronghold in the
affections of his neiglbors. One day
last year he drove TO Milton where a

Holland then went back home while
his friends elected him custodian of

Mr.. Holland is president and

SHEEP VALUE IN SANTA ROSA
COUNTY AMOUNTS TO $4,000,
WITH $4,000 PROFIT ANNUAL
~. ACCORDING TO WELL
KNOWN SHEEP MEN. WHO ARE
INTERESTED.

Approximately. there are $4,000 head
OF sheep in Santa Rosa county, with
an average valuation OF three dollars
a head
The wool from these sheep during
the past few years has averaged 81 a
7.ead. making a yearly revenue Of
$50, 900 from $4,000 which represent
the approximate sheep value Of the
county.
Santa Rosa is particularly adapted
to sheep-raising. because Of her soft
climate, natural grasses, and many
streams, which make it possible for
the sheep to be raised entirely on the
range, with no expense attached to
the entire undertaking excepting that
connected with rounding the animals
up once a year for shearing.
The sandy soil keeps the wool from
becoming dirty, a clean. fine iong-fibre
product, some Of which is known as

There is no sheep disease in Santa
Rosa, and sheep-raising can be carr
ried ON with more profit and less work
than the northern and western farmer
may probably be able at first to realize.

Bagdad is Santa Rosa county's

F. {. DEFY HAS
MADE GOOD"
HAS BUILT UP FINE JEWELRY
BUSINESS DURING PAST TEN
YEARS, AND HAS HOSTS OF
FRIENDS IN SANTA ROSA.

F. z. Dey, OF Milton, has been 4
resident of that city for the past ten
years, during which time he has built
up a splendid jewelry and watch max
ing business.
From a small iewelry business eA-
tending at first only a few miles in
either direction from Milton, Mr.. Dey
has seen his establishment grow and
thrive until today. he is constantly re
ceiving orders from all sections eft
West Florida and much Of South
Alabama. He is a business man or
whom any community might well feel
proud, and his plant is one of the fore
most in this section.
Mr.. Dey is a genuine prince of good
fellows and numbers his friends By
his acquaintance. He knows how to
sell good jewelry, repair a watch. catch
fresh water trout and tell an interest
ing story around the camp fire. H.
takes an occasional outing along some
of Santa Rosa's gurgling streams, or
pitches his tent beside some of hcr
numerous lakes, bays or bayous. Then
business cares are laid aside for a sea
son and he gathers in the finny tribe
until all are satisfied. Tt in on these
occasional outings that he inhales the
ozones which keep him young and
which his friends hope will enable him
to live to be at least 100 years old.
OF all her adopted sons Milton has
none in whom she can justly feel q
greater pride than in Frank z. Dey.
