BY GUS MALBERT.

Frank Chance and his New
Yorks proved a very real attrac-
ton in the second game of the
1914 exhibition series at the West
Broad Street yard, and though
they won by the score Of 7 to 3,
the Colts proved even more i'm
prcssivc than they did the day
previous in their first encounter
with the world champion Ath-
letics.
Chance may not have world
beater when he faces the barrier
next month, but he has the foun-
dation upon which to build ball
club, if the fans in New York will
give him the opportunity. 1t is
literally a team OF youngsters,

that they have got to be whipped

Seven Thousand Dollars
From Seven Acres.

The following from the DeLand
News makes very Illuminating read
ing:
Osteopathic physician of this place,
decided that there was money to be
made in the business of truck farming
here. Although at that time the BUSH
ness had not been tried out in this
section TO any extent and there were
many who thought that it would prove
unsuccessful here the doctor decided
10 engage in the business. He Sc
lected a piece of land upon the Lake
BereSford peninsula. which is in the
flowing well district, and had ten
acres cleared. He also had a deep
well puI down, an irrigation plant in
stalled, buildings erected and thus laid
his lines for the establishment of a
truck growing business. He was at
that time absolutely without expert
ence as a truck farmer. The only
capital at his command was the in
come from his practice. a logged de-
termination to succeed and the ability
TO work long hours
He was obliged to buy his land on
time, and to borrow the money with
which to make his improvements As
his practice was his only source of
revenue he has been obliged to work
both night and day, rising before day
light to go to his farm and superin-
tend the work there and working until
late hours at night at his profession.
Many have been the obstacles which
he has had to overcome, many the dis
couragements he has enounterecd.
There were times when a man with
less grit would have faltered, but the
doctor is not of the faltering kind and
nothing less than success would satisfy
him.
He had. this season. seven acres in
cultivation. Up to the present time,
considering this season only, he has
sold over Seven Thousand Dollars
worth of produce and by the close of
the season, including the spring crop
OF Irish potatoes and tomatoes, which
were planted after the celery was re-
moved, the total will likely be over
Twelve Thousand Dollars.
He had five acres in celery which
produced 1000 crates per acre and sold
for $3.50 per crate f. O. b. DeLand
Junction. It costs something over three
hundred dollars an acre to produce
this crop. He had So of an acre in
lettuce which brought over $1,100, and
costs but $500 per acre to produce,
Is acre in cabbage brought $4,000.
He had % of an acre in caulihower
which brought at the rate of $4,000 per
acre. He also had 1-3 acre in straw -
berries and has three acres Irish po-
tatoes and three acres of tomatoes
coming on.
He has cleared enough this season
to pay For his entire farm and make ::
snug bank account as well, but in
stead of keeping the money in the bank
will use it in extending his farm OPP
crations. He has purchased more land
and will increase the acreage in cult
walton from year to year until he has
from fifty 10 sevcnty-fivc acres produc-
Ing. lie believes s>%t larger acreage
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1914-05-12

will produce better returns proportion
ately than a small place He believes
thoroughly in the possibilities of the
business and will put both his time
and money into it until he carries out
the plans he has in mind for building
up an extensive farm industry.
This was done in Volusia, an East
Florida county. The some thing in
the same way could probably not be
done IN Escambia, a West Florida
county, but the same profits in other
ways are not unreasona BILE.
All that any Florida farmer needs
to do to secure profitable results is
to give the soil the proper intelligent
attention and the soil, the sunshine,
the rainfall, and the temperature will
do the rest.

The Man Who Is
Ashamed of His Country.

The New Orleans States contains
one brief paragraph devoted to the
man who is ashamed that he is an
American. Here it is:
The government has already spent
large sum of money to get the refu-
gees out of Mexico, but from all ac-
counts many of them are not only I'M
grateful bur scurrilous. One who was
landed in New Orleans the other day,
after protesting that he was penniIess
and raising a rumpus for a free ferry
ticket and transportation to Texas, got
soused before leaving town and on a
Southern Pacific train was robbed of
$50 in currency and $50 in gold He is
q fair type of the refuge who says,
ITO hell with Bryan" and tearfully ad-
mits that he is ashamed to call him
self an American.
And that about sizes him up We
wonder if these people who are so
busy telling President Wilson and Sec
rotary Bryan what ought to be done
have ever stopped to think what would
have been the result had the United
States declared war six months ago.
A declaration of war or an aggres-
sive move against Mexico would have
exposed thousands of defenseless
Americans in the interior of that
troubled country to attack and death
by irresponsible Mexican soldiers and
semi barparous natives.
Months ago in anticipation of
trouble, Secretary Bryan advised all
Americans to get out of Mexico and
many of them have done so Those
Americans are now safe. If war is de-
clared, they are beyond the danger of
hostilities. What one of them would
prefer danger in Mexico with war on,
! to safety outside of Mexico with war
on? And yet many of these same peo-
pie, whose lives have been saved by
the caution and wisdom of the Ameri-
can administration, are now blaming
that administration because it did not
precipitate war while they were in
danger
The reasoning Of some persons is
past comprehension, but the man who
is ashamed that he is an American
is not worthy of the protection of the
American flag.
