HOW'S THIS FOR ONE
FLORIDA ACRE I?

Here is good story from The
Valley-Gazette: "Over 500 net
profit from one acre of eggplant is
the experience of Rull Bass of Kis-
simmee. Mr.. Bass planted an acre
of eggplant on his farm at John
sons island this fall because he had
heard so much about this crop as
money maker. He found his land
suited to the growing of eggplant
and spent less than SIS for fertilizer
to prepare it. The eggplant grew
luxuriantly and fruted in splendid
shape. Until the recent slight frost
the eggplant was shipped regularly
each week by Mr.. Bass, and he stat
ed this week that his returns showed
that exclusive of all expense he had
cleaned up something over $500"

Pensacola has been complaining
loud and long because her navy yard
was put out of commission by Re-
publican administration as being
practically useless and not worth
the price of maintaining it. But from
a recent news item in the Pensacola
papers we should judge that the sit
uation over there is rot as serious as
at first supposed. Tho navy yard has
been more or less dsmantled and
ships are no longer built or repaired
there, but Secretary Daniels has been
diligently on the job of making it
up" 10 Pensacola il one way and
another, and as a result nearly $50
900 per month are paid to the va
rious employees of the government
there. The greatest aviation field
in America is located there; war

stantly in the hafboI for target prac-

A REMEDY IN SIGHT

Inequality in the assessment Of
property for taxation has long been
one vi the standing evils of govern
merit everywhere that the ad valor-
EN- system OF taxing prevails and
here in florida we are as bail af-
flicteG as in any other State. But 1t
must he admitted that the Safe tax
Commission and the county assessors
have been doing their best to remedy
the situation and save to the State
and counties the vast sums lost ev-
Cry year through the assessment of
property very far below it's value.
At the recent meeting of the Flor
ida Association of Tax Assessors in
definite steps were TAX
en- to put property values upon a
fifty per cent basis, and if the va
rious assessors will stick to this ar
rangcment the trouble will have
been adequately remedied. But it
all depends upon the assessors and
how much resisting power they have
against the persuasions of property
owners; also the lirmness of the
county commissioners acting in their
capacity as board of equalization
They were requested by the ac-
ton OF the Jacksonville meeting to
sign an agreement to maintain a
fit, per cent assessment for 1916
on all classes of property, and if

ground of complaint on the score of
unequal and inadequate assessments.
If they don't do it the State tax
commission will issue to the assess
ors perempory order to assess all
property at full cash value and take
the necessary steps to enforce the or
der. That certainly looks like bust
ness and it would seem to be good
judgment on the part of every as
SCISSOR and commissioner in Florida
to sign the agreement and live up
to it. 1t is a plain way out of a

The German and pro German press
dwells upon the cargo of the Lusi-

that 1t thus became an armed cruiser,
and floating fortress within which no
neutral should enter, and the English
and pro English press dwell particu.
