LAKELAND AND JACKSONVILLE

This is a good day to talk about
what Lakeland has done in the last
year. Under the caption, Some
Florida Cities" the Times Union has
an instructive article full of sugges-
tive comparisons between the var
ious cities of Florida. Here is what
it says about Lakeland, comparing
its growth with that of Jackson
Vile:
Take the case of Lakeland. A re-
cent issue OF the News placed the
amount of money spent in buildings
last year at S1,79i,000, but it in
Guided money spent in paving, sew
ers and improvement OF railroad
yards. Taking this out the sum OF
s1.494,OOO remains. This is about
six times as much in proportion TO
Lakelands population in 1910 as has
been spent in Jacksonville during
the past year in proportion to jack
sonville's population in 1910. But
the News says that over 800 new res
licences have been built. Since Lake
land had only 3.719 people in l9lO,'
these houses provide for an increase
of 40 per cent Of the towns popu-
lation in 1910, and to have done
as well proportionately Jacksonville
would have built over 5000, instead
of over 1000 re Licences during the
past year. '. Lakeland averages ,
with this rear, building l.5OO resi-
1ences between 1910 and 1915, the !
census Of 1915 will show a popnla
ion of 10000 for that city.

Il The good sense of President Will

precedent smasher he is the most
daring and brilliant success in
American history. Think of what
would have happened to him today
Ii he had adhered to the presidents
of his predecessors, given the usual
New Years reception at the White
House and stuck his suffering right
hand out to be shaken and wrung
and squeezed by thousands OF men,
women and children passing in abb
surd procession before him! Tt would
have been a long, dreadful day OF
torture for him, with no compensat-
Ing advantage for him or any one
else and he would have gone to
bed tonight nursing a swollen hand
without even the consciousness that
he had performed public duty at
the sacrifice of his digits. There
was no question of duty about it. 1t
was simply an absurd custom, grown
more absurd by long observance and

publicans can find nothing in him to

greet 1t.

The way those Mexican federals
are failing to fight and taking to
their heels every time the terrifying
vision of one of Villas rebels rises
in front of them. indicates that the
end is near for the Huerta regime.
Apparently all resisting power has
gone ont of the federal soldier in
Mexico; he has no pride in his cause
or himself and is willing to quit
right now. We can hardly blame
him, for he has nothing to gain by
victory and little to lose by defeat.

THE DAY WE CELEBRATE

Never did fairer day dawn upon a
people to mark the birth Of a new
year than this good Thursday when
thousands meet in Lakeland under
cloudless skies, and hearts in keep
ing with the day, to celebrate the
thirtieth anniversary of the original
settlement of the city. We have
made a great day of it and done JUS
tice to the subject, big as that sub
1ect was.
Our local columns tell the story
and there is no need to moralize on
it here. After thirty years of life,
starting from a few cabins in a pine
thicket in the vast wilderness OF
South Florida our people have built
city here. beautiful, modern and
progressive, city they have a right
to be proud of, which the State has
right 10 be proud of, and today we
have in fitting manner told the world
of our pride and Joy and faith in
Lakeland and invited all our friends
and neighbors to join with us in the
Carnival We have made great
day of it with banners and music
and parades and decorations and
multitudcs of people thronging the
streets, with the true holiday spirit
in their hearts. all under glorious
sun flooding the world with it's
sparkling light, and our people have
every right to be proud of the UNI
qualified success of the celebration.

Chronic rheumatism is due largely
to the diet; it can positively be cured
by cooking, combining and eating
our foods in such a manner as to pre-
vent the accumulation in the body of

appeared in The Hygienist, a month

SUGAR FACTORY PAYS UP.
Industry Brings Prosperity to Farmers
of the Surrounding Territoy.

On Monday the local sugar factory
paid out S25OOOO for beets and labor
to the people of Burley and the sur
rounding country. The influences OF
the factory pay day" was felt in
every channel of industry and business
here. With all other farm products,
excepting wheat, selling at low fig
ure, and practically no markets for
thousands of tons of hay, the beet crop
is proving the salvation of the country
this year.
The beets are practically all in at
this time, and the factory is running
at full capacity. The open fall wealth
er has been taken advantage of by the
farmers in harvesting their crops, and
all who have grown beets are we'll sat-
isfied with the results. The average
yield is 10 ton per acre, bringing
gross receipt of $50.-Burley Bulletin.
