Why We Like Florida

Because you can grow more of
almost any kind of crop known to
the world upon an acre of ground
in Florida than anywhere else.
The grower has crops ready for
market at seasons of the year
when they can be grown in no
other locality, and as result gets
the topmost prices. He can grow
grapefruit, the grandest specimen
Of fruit that has been given to
mankind. And it is worth while
to note that there is only a small
Quantity of grapefruit grown out
side of Florida, and it is not the
best q1oIlty either. California's
attempts have been practically
failures, The Florida man can
raise better oranges and tanger-
ines than were ever grown in Caii-
fornla or anywhere else. His
Strawberries are the finest in the
land at a time when they sell
readily at Is cents Il box. In the
garden he can grow anything tina,
is grown in any other locality,
and he has the advantage of being
able to produce vegetables for the
market when they are ont of sea-
son elsewhere and thus command
the top prices. Besides this he
grows from two to four crops a
year.-Melhourne Times,

JEWISH SOLVES PROBLEM

muster, and Ross can muster con-
siderable. Now that he had bite
he gaye.his line jerk and was in
turn himself jerked half way over
the railing. There were other
husky fishermen nearby, and no
BODY in the world was ever known
to sit still when a big fish was
to be landed. The line was hitch
ed 10 the railing and the railing
showed signs of giving away. so
everybody who could pull grabbed
the line, and after forty-fve min
utes of delicate angling" the
big fellow was brought up to the
pier. r9 MA taH
Of course Mr.. Mobley could not
90 back to New York without hay-
ing picture of his catch and the
weight in figures marked thereon.
SO a dray was procured and the
fish taken to Mr.. Howe's standard
scales. it was like the Irishman's
hog-it didn't weigh as much as
be thought it would-he thought
it wouldn't. But it really did
weigh two hundred and sixty-three
pounds.
Now such large healthy fish
ought to be of some use, and in
some places such fish are used in
many ways. But not so here.
The soil is even too rich to need
them as fertilizer. However, it
was suggested that jewish liver
was the most palatable dish that
could be prepared. Thereupon
the liver was removed. 1t weigh
ed twenty.three poundsl oh, you
anglers for brook trout on the
Pocono hills, think of catching a
fish whose liver weighed twenty
three pounds! aE
Now, it isn't everybody every
where that gets chance to eat II
piece of liver taken from a fish
that weighed two hundred and
sixty,three pounds, and of course
. there were a great many who
wished TO have the chance. So
the liver was divided up into many
portions and taken to many
homes. There was but one ver-
dict and that was that the Jewish
liver was just the daintiest morsel
that had been tasted for long
time. 1t is said that the soldiers
at Fort Myers and the Macedoni-
ans at Arcadia feel sighted, but it
was impossible to remember ev-
erybody in distributing the liver.
And now the hue and cry for
jewish liver is on. 1t can be had
in immense quantities and as low
as three cents per pound. Hence
the end of high cost living.

COL. SIDNEY SUGGS
At the Annual Meeting of the Okla
homa Engineering Society.

To the subject Trunk Systems for
Oklahoma" Col. Sidney Suggs, state
highway commissioner, delivered an
earnest appeal for the assistance OF
the members of the Oklahoma Engi-
neering Society, inviting their coop
Grafton in his efforts to secure better
districts, urging permanent construc
ton under skilled supervision, and
stating that his department stood rea-
dy to cooperate with the engineers
of the state of Oklahoma in any work
that would better the conditions Of
our rural roads and insisted that each
member of the association call at his
department and secure standard plans
and specifications for the cOnstruc-
tion of roads and bridges which he
would supply without charge.
In the course of his remarks Col.
Suggs took occasion to recall the
early efforts of the advocates for godO
roads in Oklahoma, and their success
in securing a section of the constitu
tion providing for a state department
of highways, with the support and
the cooperation of the members of
this association, the work of the de-
partment of highways will be carried
forward with assurances of securing
good roads in the near future, as with
their assistance the remotest parts of
the state can be reached and the good
roads leaven disseminated.
They should be and are the authori-
ty under which all road monies
should be expended, as their educa-
ton has fitted them for the work.
He advised them to strengthen their
organization and insist upon recogni-
tion by county and township officials.
Col Suggs also stated that no state
convict should ever work the roads
unless the road had first been laid
out by a competent engineer.

CASH ECH0LS
THE MAN WITH A CONSCIENCE
DARBY NAMED
AS RECEIVER
FOR CREEK NATION RIVER BEDS
JUDGE CAMPBELL DISRE-
CARDS RECOMMENDATlO

Muskogee, Okla, Dec. 2S.-Federal
Judge Ralph E. Campbell Saturday
afternoon appointed j. f. Darby as
receiver for the Creek nation river
beds. The announcement followed fill
ings of stipulation agreed upon by
United States District Attorney Hay
den Linebaugh and John r. Williams,
secretary Of the school land depart
ment, in which the court was asked
to appoint II. B. Spaulding to the
position.
The appointment of receiver for
the Greek nation river beds was nee
essary on account of litigation now
in progress to determine the right Of
the nation to collect royalties on oil
leases in Riparian territory. The
place generally was considered an
easy one, the salary being $500 a
year.
Alter considerable desultory nego-
tiations Mr. Spaulding was finally de
cided upon by two of the litigants,
and Saturday his name was presented
to Judge Campbell and not approved.
''It is nothing but rank politics"
hotly declared Mr.. Spaulding
81 consider it very, very significant
to notice that ! am an avowed demo-
crat: Linebaugh and Williams are
democrats, while Judge Campbell is
a republican and Mr.. Darby also is
an adherent of that political faith.
There was no question of politics
considered in my agreement, but the
few republicans now left in office can
not bear to see a democrat appoint
