". W. Decker, a former member
Of the Legislature, committed suicide
By hanging himself in his barn at
Iarpon Springs last Friday morning.
He was rich and respected and had
large business interests; in fact there
was nothing in his life outside his
legislative experience that could
have caused remorse.

COUNTY FARM EXPERTS.

The Osceola county commissioners
have just voted an appropriation,
which, added to the fund provided by
the U. S. Department of Agriculture,
will enable that county to employ a
iarm expert. The progressive COM
munitiss in Florida and other states
of the south are rapidly getting into
line with modern ideas.
/ These farm experts do not pretend
70 know it all. They are students
/ hense,Ycs and learn from the farm
ers they visit, and carry the lessons
they learn from one successful farm
er to another who does not succeed
because he needs advice.
In nearly every county it will be
found that most of the serious agri-
cultural problems have been solved
by several Of the good farmers. There
IS TO better way of teaching a scien-
tific truth than by calling attention to
some one who is successfully practic-
ing it. 1t will often be found that
the successful farmer has not stopped
TO analyze the cause of his success
md may often attribute it to the
wrong factor. The lesson is there
just the same.
1t is not enough that the county
AGENT or expert be simply a com
mon carrier Of ideas" from farmer to
farmer. He is to be a go-between to
gather facts and experiences every
where and to interpret these facts
ard experiences in the light of local
conditions and needs. Then he is to
