Steel Foundry at Granite City is in

ployment to about 250 additional men,
will begin operations in the near fu-

an increasing percentage of labor is
finding employment. Thousands of

GADsDEN COUNTY LAND PRO
DUCING FINE CORN

A few years ago so bushels yield
of corn to the acre was a rarity. To-
day in Gadsden county it is not un-
usual Deep plowing and cultivation
have helped. Selection of seed is an
other important matter. This season
Mr.. Jno. A. Barnes, on his farm north
of Quincy has a 36-acre field of corn
that will yield so bushels or more to
the acre. This corn was grown from
new type of seed brought from
North Carolina. The stalks are large
and growthy, yielding from two to
three fine ears to the stalk. A care
full count of an acre of some showed
$3.50 ears of corn. Had the corn
been planted thicker it would have
easily produced 25 per cent. more.
This is only another of the instances
where the productivity of Gadsden
soil is being demonstrated. Making
two to five ears of corn grow where
one grew before is a mighty fine bus

suspend publication of its daily edi-

The Palatka News regrets the mis-

contemporary. The publishers have
made game fight, have issued a
clean, readable paper, and one that
has reflected credit on the city. But
though they have raked the city as

BIG COMPLIMENT FOR MR..
LIGHT

On the first page of this issue ap-
pears communication from Hon. l..
S. Light, ex-representative in the leg
islature from Marion county, on the
subject of railroad assessments.
Mr.. Lights service in the legisla-
ture was marked by the production
of statistical data to sustain his con-
tentions on so many occasions that
he came to be known at "Old Facks
and Figgers." That he has given time
and though to the subject which he
handles in today's issue is apparent
upon reading it. Much valuable infor-
nation is condensed in small space,
and Mr.. Light proves beyond cavii
that the Reporter-Star was correct in
its recent article on the subject of
railroad assessments.
The Reporter-Star is glad to have
its position endorsed by such a
thoughtful man as Mr.. Light, but
above that and much more important
to the people of Florida is the glar-
ing inequality existing between the as
sessment of railroad property and the
real and personal property of its citi-
zens.
1t is too late for any change to be
made this year, but the comptroller
and others who have the assess
ments of railroad property in their
hands will have another chance next
year to prove whether they are will
ing to make the railroad bear their
just share of the tax burden. The
matter has been called to their at
tention, and it is of such magnitude
it is hardly likely that the people will
forget.-Orlando Reporter-Star.
