Fruit Growers
Benefited By War

How the War Affects the
Farmer" an article in the Coun-
try Gentleman, OF September
II, by Roger w. Babson, the
leading authority on business
conditions in the United States,
describes the probable influence
Of the European conflict upon
Florida agriculture, as follows:
The present time is a golden
opportunity for growers OF cit
rus fruits, such as oranges, lem
onS, and grape fruit, particular
ly the first two mentioned. "A
! few years ago it was thought
that the best oranges and lem
onS came from the Mediterran-
can countries, but the concerted
and cooperative efforts OF the
growers OF citrus fruits have
largely driven that idea out of
the heads of the American pub
lie. although a large quantity OF
foreign lemons are still used in
this country. To drive fhe
foreigner entirely from the
american market all that is
needed now is to produce in this
country oranges and lemons in
sufficient quantities to meet con-
sumption demands"
AS this article is very conser-
vative the above has much
weight. Florida was never so
we'll fixed to meet the demand
for citrus fruits as at this time
The crop soon to be put on the
market is large and OF good
quality. The Florida Citrus, en-
change is spending twice the
money ever spent before in ad,
vertising Florida citrus fruits
The new Lue Gin Gong orange
is beginning to come into bear
ing so that Florida ripe, higf
. quality oranges can be in thu
market every day in the year
This orange has been Officially
. named the Lue orange. SCI

New Conner Gives
Views On Florida

Mrs. G. NJ. DeVries, who To-
Gated at Port Richey some time
ago, writes the Detroit, Mich. }
News editor quite a lengthy
letter on her views OF Florida
I, part OF which is as follows:
Dear Sir: So many OF our
friends and acquaintance have
written us asking us how we
liked Florida, that | would like
to say a word through your pa
per to them and others inter-
ested about this country. 1t is
not to be wondered at that so
many are at this time interested
in Florida.
Should the European war
continue, Florida will have to,
and can we'll do so in climate,
become the Italy, France and
Spain and the Isles OF the Medi-
terrianean" to our wealthy trav-
elers.
To the farmer the possible
ties OF the great fruit and truck
ing industry i'll Southern Florida
are just beginning to be fully APP
preciated and people all over the
country are now fully aware
that when the new spineless
cactus hybrid propagated by
Luther Burbank shall have be-
come fully established on the
lands and localities in this state
not suited to citrus fruits and
winter trucking, Florida will be-
come the greatest cattle, hog
and poultry section in the
world.
The fame of Florida is
spreading round the world ane
ere many years no other state II
the union will be more re
nowned than this fair state
No other county in the state
has as many important requi
sites for successful development
as Pasco county especially thu
western portion of the county
bordering on the Gulf of Mexi
co.
The rapidity with which set
tiers are coming into this par
| OF Pasco county, the recurrin,
selection of winter home Site
on the banks of the river or lake
are substantial evidences tina
now Port Richey will soon b
one of the famous farming AM
tourists sections of the state.
But above all, Floridas eli
mate is indeed the marvel OF tn
world-all those who have be
come inoculated with the Flor
ida germ OF optimism and hope

ture oranges or grapefruit.
With the $500 to 800 cars of
late oranges yet to be shipped
ont OF California, as compared
with only 1000 cars shipped al
ter august 18th last year, it
would be a mistake for Florida
growers to ship their fruit in a
green or immature condition,
he says.
1t is absolutely necessary to
create from the beginning Of the
season. a heavy consumptive de-
nand for both Florida oranges
and grapefruit, he contends ar
suing that by giving the con-
sumcrs good eating stock from
the start, a heavy demand will
result, as otherwise the consum-
crs will show their preference
for the late California fruit,
which at this date would be full
ly colored and possess good ia
bic qualities and be obtained at
reasonable prices.

IS LOYAL
To HANSON

THE standpat papers are try
ing their best to fool the people
into believing that there is a
break between Ole Hanson and
Congressman Falconer, who was
defeated for the progressive nom
ination for United States sena-
tor" said Burns Poe, secretary of
the progressive county central
committee today. THE dispatch
from Washington, ID. c., to this
effect in the News is not ground
ed on facts.
"Ole Hanson wrote a letter to
Falconer from the office of the
progressive party in Tacoma
thanking the congressman for his
telegram of congratulation and
accepting his offer to help the en-
tire progressive ticket on the
stump. Since then | have receiv-
ed two letters from Falconer say
ing that he hoped ever progress
sive would be elected and the
standpat candidates would be
beaten.
THE standpat. papers realize
that Hanson is the strongest can
didete in the field against Jones,
and have already conferred their
attack on the progressive NOM
inee. They realize that the demo-
cratic nominee has no show and
they are paying no attention
whatsoever to him. IL is the
same In the congressional fight.
Their batteries have been opened
against Warburton for the same
reason that he is stronger than
Drury. Every vote for the dem
ocratic nominee is the same as a
vote for Johnson and they want
the democratic nominee to pick
up as many votes as possible in
order to Increase Johnson's
chances"

Mayor Moorhead returned last
night from Hannibal where he held
a conference yesterday afternoon with
officials Of the c., B. & @. railroad
company in regard to extending e
street from Commercial alley across
the company's tracks to the river.
The railroad company was ordered
some time ago by the city to extend
the street across their tracks but
nothing had been done by this COM
Pasy SO far.
The officials. of the company as
sured Mayor Moorhead that they
would comply with the order as soon
as the c. r. l. & P. railroad company
was ready to extend the street across
their tracks, which lie parallel with
those OF the @.
The matter was taken up again with
the Rock Island officials this morning.
A time will be arranged for both COM
panies to start the work. and the
street will be extended across the
tracks as soon as this can be ar
ranged. The use OF street across
the tracks at this place Is badly need
ed and on this account the city coun-
ell Is making every effort to push the
work to completion as rapidly as pos
sible.
