The game warden of Escambla
county says that while many people
there are complaining that the
game laws are being violated, not
one of these complainers can be in
duced to call names and give specific
facts upon which a warrant of ar
rest could be issued. That ic an old.
old weakness of human nature and
1T is one of the chief Instructions to
the enforcement of law in every
community. Any fellow can voice
his crouch in general terms, but it
takes courage to make himself
complaining witness against a par
ticular individual and go into court
and face the music under oath.
That's bringing it too near home to
suit him and might affect his per-
sonal popularity.

The fall of Antwerp is having an
inspiriting effect upon both the Ger
man army and people and will HELM
to prolong the war. But to an i'm
partial outsider it is inconceivable
that three mighty powers like
France, England and Russia, with
Japan, Servia and Belgium to aid
them, will ever submit to end
the conflict except upon terms of
practical victory for themselves
Germany is magnificent in war as
she was in peace, but overwhelming
numbers and resources must win in
the end. as they always do. Ant
werp means the triumph of big guns
over strong forts, and has contribut-
ed that much to the science of war
but it leaves the war itself inst
about where it was, to be decided
on other fields by the weight Of
numbers and the commissary de-
partment.

ONE OF FLORIDA'S
SIGNAL ADVANTAGES

"A correspondent of the Jackson
vile Metropolis, probably from
some other State and not fully in
formed of agricultural conditions
here, objects to statement III that
paper that three or four crops can
be raised on the same piece of
ground each year. AS the superior
advantages of Florida depend to con-
siderable degree upon making good
on this proposition, we reproduce
the facts stated by the Metropolis
and which can be verified by thou
sands of men familiar with the sub
ject:
"As to the number of crops to be
raised, we have personally seen as
many as ten crops of hay taken
from land in this State in one year,
and Capt. w. ]. Hillman, of Live
Oak reports patch of alfalfa that
has produced something near twenty
~AoPS VI "iicid III Il year. mere is
land that has produced a crop of
corn, two crops of potatoes, and a
crop of cane, velvet beans, cow
peas or something of that Sort in a
year. We do not contend that ev-
cry acre will produce three. four or
ten crops a year-but we do contend
that the most of our good land will
produce more than one crop a year,
and that the cost of winter feed
and such matters that reduce the
earning powers of the farmer of the
North are inconsequential when
compared with the cost OF the same
items in Northern or Northwestern
States. The Florida Metropolis
does not wish to see any farmer
come to Florida and fail. We believe
If farmer comes here with plenty
OF capital, and will apply the same
energy, intelligence and stick-to-it-
iveness to his operations here, he
will receive a much larger reward
for his investment and effort than
In any other State, and that he will |

The following is the special cor
respondence referred to:
Tampa, Fla, Sept. %.
AN erroneous impression prevails
regarding the status of the phos-
phate industry in Florida. The State
exports large quantities of phosphate
to Europe, and on account of the
closing down of several mines il has
been supposed by outsiders that the
INDUSTRY was in a state of suspend
ed animation on account of the En-
ropean war.
Florida furnishes between so and
90 per cent of the worlds supply of
phosphate and so per cent of the en-.
tire output of the United States. or
the phosphate produced in this
state, only 40 per cent is expor,ed
the remainder being used in this
country.
FOLK county is the center of the
great phosphate industry of Florida
Ihere are twelve phosphate plants
In Polk county and only three Of
them have closed since the war no.
gan. One of these plants is owned
oy French people who have gone
home to take part in the war Tho
other two ship their entire outnut
10 Germany and have no market for
the product at present on account of
disturbed European conditions.
The three suspended plants arc
owned by wealthy and entirely re-
sponsible corporations and will re-
sumo operations as soon as the nres-
emit trouble is over. The larger pbos.
phate mines in Florida are con.
trolled by large corporations of am.
pie resources and the industry as
whole is we'll financed and on
solid foundation.

corning an important Florida indus
try:
Interesting and at this time es-
pecially important facts concerning

Florida are contained in special cor
respondence from Tampa, Fla :, pub

suspended on account of the Euro

output of the United States and of
the total amount produced in Flor

ITCHING TERRIBLE ON LIMB

R. F. D. No. 8, Clarkfeld, MINI
My trouble was of long standing. 1t
started with some small red and yell
low spots about the size of pin head
on my leg and every morning there
was a dry scale on top covering the
affected part and when those scales
were falling off the itching was more
than l could stand at times. The first
year l did not mind it so much as it
was only itching very badly at times,
but the second year it advanced all
around my leg and the itching was
terrible. l had to be very careful to
have my clothing around the affected
part very loose. At night time | often
happened to scratch the sore in my
sleep. Then had to stand up, get out
of bed and walk the floor till the spell
was over
Il bought lots of salves and tried
many different kinds of medicine but
without any success. l got cake of
Cuticura Soap and fifty-cent box of
T1taticura Ointment and when l had
used them l was nearly over. the itch
ing. But kept on with the Cuticura
Soap for six weeks and the cure was
complete" (Signed) S. o. Gorden,

Can This Helm Earmina2

Now that the new tariff law is in
full effect, except as to the delayed
complete abolition of the duty on
sugar, and one or two other clauses.
papers in this part of the country
which championed such tariff reduc-
tions as have been written into the ma
tional statutes are beginning to ask
whether the beet sugar industry of
northern Ohio is doomed. They pub
lish figures which indicate that $5,000.-
900 invested in sugar mills and ma
chinery will have to find some other
use, If any part of this capital can be
saved. 1t seems probable that $4,000
acres devoted to the growing of sugar
beets will have to be otherwise en-
ployed
Can this sort of thing go On in many
states, not merely in one corner of
Ohio, without affecting American agri-
culture adversely? Is it possible to
kill such an industry as the making OF
sugar from beets has grown to be and
still benefit the farmers of the United
States? Is it reasonable to suppose
that the effect of the tariff will be fa-
vorable to country life-that basic in.
terest which is so much discussed at
present and is made the subject OF
deep solicitude by men who have dcne
their utmost to put the present law on
the books-when it narrows the range
of crops and curtails the opportunities
for profit in agriculture?

BURDEN ON FARMER
Chief Sufferer Under the New
Democratic Tariff.
Cost of Living Has Not Been Cut, De-
spite Assertions Middle
men" Seem to Be the Ones to
Be Congratulated.

The new American tariff is still in
process of going into effect, If the re-
adjustment of other tariffs in order to
take advantage of our home markets
thrown open to foreign wares is to be
taken into consideration. Shipments
of Argentine corn, which caused a
break of ten cents bushel at Chica-
go, are to be supplemented by cargoes
of wheat, which also comes in free,
now that that article of produce is on
the free list as the result of our South
American rival taking the duty off our
wheat. The difference in price is ia
vorable to heavy imports, and our
wheat markets instantly reflected the
fact by taking a sharp downward turn.
Additional to wheat and corn, Argen-
tine meat packers are now making reg
ular shipments to our Atlantic ports,
and one large house at Buenos Aires
has acquired extensive terminal facili-
ties at New York, apparently in the
belief that the new conditions will be
permanent.
However, Canada is the principal

cattle and other articles having more
than doubled in value since October.
Cattle and oats have been the principal
gamers, but if the Canadians pattern
after Argentine in taking their tariff
off our wheat the latter article will en-
ter into fierce rivalry with our own.
Cattle are coming from Mexico in in
creasing numbers, despite the war. so
that it happens to our surprise that
not the old world, but the new, is the
principal source of the increase in our
food supply which was to cut down the
cost of living, but has not as yet made
a dent in it, and also that the Ameri-
can farmer, more than the manufac-
turer, has to stand the brunt of foreign
competition.
In face of actual conditions and de-
velopments under the new tariff, the
authors of that measure state that they
are in receipt of thousands of letters
from small traders telling of the bet
ter results they secure under revision
But small traders" are middlemen
not consumers. The latter are forced
to pay higher prices than before, all
of which goes to the enrichment of the
very class the new tariff was to put
the screws on Therefore, if the mid
dleman is the gamer at the expense OF
the consumer, instead of the contrary
by what mental route do the high
priests of low tariff arrive at the con
clusion that the results achieved fulfill
| their promises?
