cellent farmers in that community
and with anything like good sea-
sons big crops are always made.
The prospects now are very fine.
Speak kindly to the telephone

DIVISION OF DESOT0 COUNTY
Lands and Citizenship Good Enough
and Great Enough for Two

DeSoto County, abounding in
ricn and fertile soil--one of the
richest and best in Florida-a
county with citizenship that has
added much to the progress and
development of Florida has had a
county division fight on its hands.
There should be no fight because
DeSoto county is big enough to
divide and furnish two of the very
best counties in the State.
When Pinellas was taken from
Hillsborough St. Petersburg be-
gan to grow into a city and Hills
borough was also benefited.
When enough men are dissatisfied
and the products and area are
sufficient they should have a new
county if they want it.
Arcadia would not suffer if De-
Soto is divided-in fact, beautiful
Arcadia would grow greater and
both counties would prosper.
Trabue County, the proposed
new county, would be one of the
most prosperous in the State with
in II few years, and DeSoto would
also be benefited.
A. f. Dewey, who has been
among the leaders fighting for a
new county, has aroused much
sentiment all over Florida favor
able to division. The State SEN
ate favors division, but the House
rejected the proposition. The
question will not down, and the
next Legislature will probably
pass the bill.
Arcadia is one of Florida's most
interesting cities sand 80 is Punta
Gorda. Both are well prepared
to be the county seats of two
prosperous and progressive coun-
ties. Dixie, Jacksonville.

both in Florida and in Cuba, it is
much less effective than with the
citrus whitefy and cannot be de-
pended upon for control.
AS we are anxious to keep q
record of the distribution of the
woolly whitefly the Entomologist
requests the growers to send him
specimens of leaves that are sus-
pected of harboring this insect.
To prevent the possibility of
spreading the best, the leaves
should be inclosed in a tight bot
tie or box with a few drops of al
cohol, chloroform, ether or gaso
line, and left for an hour or SO,
after which they may be taken
out and safely mailed in aletter.

iment Station.

Cuban or WOOlly Whitefly

no food plant other than citrus.
In many of the towns in the in
tested territory there are as yet
only small colonies on doorway
trees. Many of these colonies it
should be possible to stamp out by
prompt action. The groups of
larvae are so conspicuous that it
would not be an arduous task to
pick off all the infested leaves
from the trees, and thus destroy
the colony. Indeed, the writer
apparently did SO eradicate a
small colony in grove near Tam
pa. A little time spent now may
save a great deal of trouble later
