(Florida IlmeS-C nlonl
Editor Times-Union: | was
very much interested today III
local story printed in the Times
Cnion representing the views OF
Mr.. Rooney, of Ocala, and the
methods OF bringing to the at
tention OF canneries Of Florida
the canned products OF this state
with the view OF stimulating
domestic consumption.
The vegetable season OF 1914
witnessed the export from Ala
chua county OF probably 400 cars
Of the finest quality Of vegeta-
blcs which brought in the East
crn markets barely sufficient to
lay transportation \ehdrses. II
d close canvass had been made
OF the county, probably 500 cars
of all kinds OF canning products
were left in the fields unmarked
able. If these products had
been canned, and the people OF
Florida would have given Florl-
ola canned goods preference,
times would have been easier
with the average vegetable
grower.
But that is not all: ! find a
distinct reluctance on the part OF
buyers of canned goods to buy
home made canned products.
Investigation shows an appal-
ling indifference on the part OF
housekeepers OF Florida to Flor
ida products. AT the time OF
agitatin canneries to give a
market to unstable vegetables
and fruit we must take hand in
hand with this movement a Wig
orous campaign against the in
difference and neglect of the
Florida women.
Further than this: We must
have in Florida a pure food law
and make it operative. There is
rot doubt in my mind but
that a large percentage Of the
canned and bottled stuff that
comes into Florida would be
condemned if proper attention
were given to law requiring
the. destruction of this stuff
wherever detected.
l witnessed an exhibit by the
pure food directors of Tennes-
see. Tennessee canned pro-
ducts were selected at random
and analysed with some of the
best known foreign brands and
inevery instance the Most
sought after nationally sold
products were pronounced in
ferior and some of it unfit.
While building up our can
ming interests we should protect
them against the sweepings,
ground pickings and unwhole
some stuff that is sent down to
us by Northern and Eastern
packing plants.

THE ADVERTISING FAX
Err IS ABROAD.

Already the advertising faker
is abroad. He will be here by
the hundreds within a short
short time. Florida is easy
picking. He can get SIoo to
$3.50 out of every small COM
munity without any trouble
and always from the men who
will not advertise in the news
papers because advertising
doesn't pay"
All over the state you will
find swinging mile posts--which
cost the advertisers tens OF
thousands of dollars. The
posts refuse to swing, and the
advertiser who paid $50 to SIoc
for space on the posts and find
their adj turned away from the
road, or hidden completely from
view by the weeds, or battered
by shot from shotguns, or
knocked down, or pulled down
and generally disfgured, is the
advertise who says "Advertis.
ing doesn't pay"
Why do these takers work
small communities?
Because in cities advertising
is done by experts-advertisine
men-who wouldn't listen tc
one of these takers for min.

About The EuStiS
Road Inspection
(Bradentown Journal.)

The story of the excursion to
Eustis and things seen enroute
are of interest of course, but
more than all is such a pointed,
direct statement of facts and
impressions on the road itself as
is here presented by Mr.. Wad-
ham, who made the trip to Eus-
tisand kindly consented to give
a resume of his conclusions.
Mr.. Wadham was for several
years superintendent Of the At
lantic Refining Co., at Ellenton,
is an old citizen here who has
watched good road building in
Florida from its infancy, and all
who know him will value his
opinion of the "sand-oil" road.
Mr.. Wadham's Resume.
| give you some of the i'm
pressions of the so-called sand
oil road, as | saw it at Eustis.
| expected to see quite a stretch
of road-say one-half mile or so
but we saw about as much as
was laid lately in front of our
Post Office (but seemed to be
much better.) We were told
that it had been down about
three years and it certainly was
more resultant than that in front
of the Post Office. We could
see very few horse shoe tracks.
We were told that quite num-
Der of heavy teams were using it
and that there were no breaks
visible. The hard surface was
about four inches thick, laid on
the road-bed, which was sand,
but it was plain to see that ma
ture had provided good drain
age, which is the secret of good
road-beds.
I want to say right here that
an impression seems to prevail
among many people that the
sand-oil roads are made of a
composition of crude petroleum
and sand. This is a mistake.
Crude oil would never make a
good road, no matter what it
was mixed with. The road at
Eustis was made of asphalt and
sand. Asphalt is the residue
of crude oil after the lighter oils
have been taken out, such as
gasoline, benzine, kerosene, etc.
The residue is thick and sticky.
| will not go into details of
proportions of sand and asphalt,
that would take up too much
space, but any one interested
can get this information at any
time from me.
My impression is that good
and lasting road can be made
of this composition, but the
most vital part of this kind OF
road is the road-bed itself. Con-
siderable intelligence in road
building must be displayed, such
as drainage, getting proper
grades, etc, and where soft
places occur, in fact there may
be half dozen places in a mile
OF road-bed which would have
to be treated each in manner
all its own. These things
would test the intelligence and
experience, also honesty of the
road builders.
In my opinion Manatee coun-
!, ty could have all the good
roads she wants, built as sug-
Sested, twelve feet wide, tor
two thousand to twenty-five
hundred dollars per- mile
= While this road does not com,
;, pare with the life of brick
road, neither does it compare in
price.

A CHRISTMAS CANDY PARTY.

Polly tells me that this was one
of the jolliest parties imaginable, and
it seems to me worthy of being passed
on right now. A young matron, who
is chairman of the candy booth of a
holiday ipazar, conceived the very
clever notion that, many hands make
light work. so she invited six girls
and their best boy friends to come
with aprons for both. On arriving
each one was assigned his work by
cards, Crack the walnuts and al
monds" Seed the dates" pull mo-
lasses candy" Make French Cream"
etc. The result was that every one
got busy and by going home time
there was a goodly supply of fudge,
molasses kisses wrappedin waxed pa
per, chocolate creams and stuffed
dates, not forgetting peanut brittle
and popcorn balls. Each couple was
given little bag of goodies to eat ON
the way home. This proves that work
and pleasure may be combined with
most gratifying results.

a marking that is scarcely visible is
also shown. Taf1etas as soft as chif-
fon are used for three-peice costumes
Trimming for the suits will depend
of course, upon the individual who
wears it. There are fat silk Hercules
Ibraids in all widths and applied in
almost every way. A SNARE finish for
a suit is binding of medium-width
braid particularly one of the palmer
TYPE. or a dressy costume, black
soutaehe braid in fancy design with
hand-embroidery in heavy black floss
is most effective. Buttons are stun
ming and are used in great prOfusion.
Pockets play an important role this
season and are to be found on all cos
tunes from tailor-mades to evening
gowns, Silk costumes are trimmed
mostly with contrasting materials and
wonderfully smart combinations are
seen. There are only touches of hand
work and few exquisitely soft sashes
Buttons are very conceivable style and
most unusual designs are shown.
For evening and dance frocks the
materials are exquisite and simply
beggar description. The thinnest
and softest of chiffon is trimmed with
tulle and fine crystal beads, and there
are whole frocks of fine silk net in the
most beautiful shades. Liberty satin
is greatly used and fine satille In deli
cate colors is soft and easily draped.
Frosty looking taffetas that are crisp,
but very soft, are beautiful when COM
bined with the filet laces that are out
with delicate silver threads. Satins
in two tones are smart and are very
new. Bands of palette are used on
net and fringes Of crystal and silver
beads are very new, Bodices Of silver
or metal thread materials are made
with skirts of deep lace fiouncing. and |
any other desirable material can be |
substituted.
Flowers. notably small pink roses
and gardenias are worn as corsage
ornaments and given quite touch to
the gown, Slippers are worn to match |
gowns, but white and fesh-pink are
generally the most populag colors, for
they combine well with ALL the even
ing shades. They are ornamented
with small fiat bows. A few Of them
have novelty buckles, but most of them
are plain.
Chiffons in novelty designs with
huge flowers strewn over the surface
are worn as q scarf. the colors har-
monizing with that of the gown. Tulle
in soft colors makes an exquisite fin
ish in scarf for evening wear.

The newest styles shown for ,ths
suit are the full skirt, with the shosi
jackets. One suit which I have 6sSd
as an Illustration, Is made of dark
brown broadcloth. The jacket il

which helps to give OF the fashionable
boxed appearance. Except for the but

Another version of the short coat
and full skirt combined is sho gn in
the second illustration which isof
blue velor. The short jacket has a
shaped belt on the lower edge which
comes to a point on either hip. This
is braided, but the cuffs and revers and
collar are of the same material as the
rest of the suit. The skirt is circular,
plain-fitting around the waist and far
ing at the bottom.
Blue serge and gabardine seem to
be the most popular choice of all
fabrics, and it is unquestioned that
they are by far the most serviceable
of all materials. In serge the fine
small rib is first style. 1t is smartest
for dressy costume because it is fine
and smooth and will lend itself read
lily to the more elaborate style of suit.
Serges with a heavier rib or a wider
vale are more suitable for the palmer
and more severe types. Gabardine is
a very strong favorite also, and Is one
of the smartest of materials. 1t is
more of novelty than a plain serge
and promises to be tremendously pop
ular for spring. Any style suit can
be made of it, for the character of the
material gives it great deal of STYLE
Then there is that which is known as
gabardine wolfe, a finer weave of this
same material, for those who prefer

Fine Ottoman cords are quite a
smart novelty in wooden fabrics and
narrow faille weayes, the same as in
the silk, and are very new and dis
tAntive. A number Of etamine cloths
are shown. The weave of these is
closer and finer than that which we
have had in the past years and it will
doubtless be big success,
For dressy frocks there is satin
salore-some of it with wonderful
high luster and some with a dull cire
effect. Faille silk in both wide and
narrow cords will be much worn for
street costume. There is beautiful
silk known as "poult-de-soie; it is the
same weave as faille, but is crisp to
The touch, like taffeta silk. In dia-
gonal weave these are very smart

visible holes with which to sew it to
