printed until the uestion as to the
validity of the election was deter
mined.
Patrons of the school, through
their attorney, c. S. Crawford, oo-
tanned the consent of Attorney Cen
eral John Dawson to bring man
damus proceedings against the school
board in the name of the state to
compel the issuance of the bonds Or
a statement as to why the BONDS
were not issued. Judge King grant
ed the mandamus writ, and the
board soon after filed its return.
In arguing the case before Judge
King, Mr.. Crawford and G. W. Hurd
of Hurd & Hurd, attorneys for the
school board, agreed that the bal
lots be opened in court and the
sample ballots thrown aside and a
recount made of the regular bal
lots. Judge King gave as his opinion
that this was not necessary ana
that so long as there had been no
charge of fraud or irregularity in
the count of the ballots, there was
no need of counting them again.
On Mr.. Crawford's motion to
ouash the return Of the schooi
board, the court ruled that SO long
as there was no attempt before or
during the election to have the pro-
ceedings declared illegal, that the
intent Of the voters, even though
marked on sample ballots, was plain
and that the election was legal.
The board can now issue the
bonds and that is what the members
desire.

THE SQUASH VINE BORER.

Often Causes Death to Squashes,
Pumpkins and Muskmeions.
Prepared by the United States depart
ment of agricultural
The squash vine borer is an insect
which is often responsible for the
death of the squash, pumpkin, musk
melon, cucumber and gourd vines. The
pest prefers, however, the squash and
pumpkin vines. 1t Is not easy to tell
just what is affecting the vines at first
when they wilt and die down, but in a
short time the presence of the borer
may be detected by the yellowish ex-
crement, or ''frass," which they force
from their burrows in the stems. Later
natural rot appears at the affected
joints and the stems or leaves become
severed
The larvae bore through the stems
from the roots to the base of the plant,
and through the leaf stalks. In fact,
the young larvae may be found in the
larger veins Of the plants and not in
frequently in the vegetables them.
selves. The Hubbard squash, marrow
cymlings and other late varieties of
squash often suffer the greatest injury
from the squash vine borer, and the
devastations are likely to be more

electric motor may be placed anywhere
Oh the farm without such risk or the
fear of an explosion.
The motors used on dairy appliances
and for the various household opera
tons are of such small size and weight
that they may readily be carried
around by one or two persons and ap-
piled to one machine or another wher-
ever needed. Thus many farms can
get along with one large and one small
motor. AS the various farm machines
operate at different speeds the motors
are supplied with suitable regulating
devices, so that the desired speeds
may be obtained.
The great advantage of cold storage
is not properly recognized today by
farmers. BY means of electrically OPP
Grated cold storage systems, butter,
milk, eggs and other perishable goods
may be saved from spelling. In many
cases. especially with fruit, farmer
is forced to let his product lie on the
ground and rot, because the price offer
ed does not pay the expense of pick
ing, packing and shipping to the COM
mission merchant. A private cold stor-
age system would enable him to pick
| his fruit in season, when the market
price was low and store 1t until he re-
ceived his own price.
For such purposes electric Ice max
ing machines for refrigerating plants
are preferable. The motor applied to
this equipment can be arranged to start
and stop automatically and will keep
the temperature in the cold storage
room within a few degrees of that de-
sired.
For irrigation purposes electric pumps
are of great service, whether on large
or small scale. AS these pumps work

Can Accomplish.

Variety of Work Which These Machines
Can Accomplish.
A very important feature is that a
few motors properly selected may be
on the farm instead of having a steam
or gasoline prime mover attached to
each machine, writes Frank Rooster in
his book, Electricity For the Farm
and Home" In this feature lies q
great advantage of electrically operat-
ed farm machinery. For instance, a
motor may be placed ON low wheeled
truck and connected by means of a
belt to thrashing machine, taking it's
electric supply from the mains by a
flexible cable plugged into suitable
outlet. On the throwing Of a switch
the motor starts and operates continu-
ously without attention. After the
thrashing is completed the motor may
then lie connected to the baling ma.
chine, which packs the straw into
bales, while if necessary the motor
may be used in loading the bales upon
wagons by operating hoist. At other
times the same motor may drive a wa
ter pump, wood saw, etc.
1t is readily seen that the electric
motor can be operated without the at.
tention necessary for steam or gasoline
prime movers, which have to be sup
piled with water and fuel. With all
other prime movers, when placed IL

Not infrequently crops are lost year
after year where the ground is success
sively planted to pumpkins, sqnashes
or other crops which the borers infest
The insect is exceedingly difficult to
control in that ordinary insecticides
and repellents are practically useless.
Since the insect passes the winter In
the fields which it has ravaged, the
ground should not be replanted the
succeeding year to the crops on which
the borer lives.
Good results have often been OBJ
tanned by planting as trap crop as
early as possible few summer
squashes, such as crook neck and early
cymlings, before and between the rows
of the main crop of late varieties. The
summer sQuashes attract the borers In
such numbers as to leave much
smaller number to deal with upon the
late or main crop. AS soon as the
| early crop is harvested, or earlier II
the ground is needed for the main
crop, the summer Squashes and vines
are raked up and burned to destroy all
larvae which they may harbor. The
same treatment is followed after gath
ering the late varieties. This method
has proved profitable where used In
New Jersey and should produce good
results farther north. In the south
however, where well defined broods OF
borers appear, it may not be so ELI

Young Animals Should Be Kept Gain
ing Steadily From Birth.
No line Of work has undergone such
a marked change during the last dec
ade as has the cattle feeding business,
writes w. II. Tourhave In the Country
Gentleman. When farm grains were
cheap little consideration was given to
the cost of production Before 1908
steer feeding was based almost entire
ly upon the efficiency of the ration
rather than upon the cost Of pound
of gain. Today the cost of production
is the most important item. Even
though smaller daily gains are made,
If they can be made ut lower cost
and the cattle can be sold ut a price
that will make the net returns greater
such a method of feeding should be
practiced.
The care and feeding of the young
growing animal are important factors
In beef production. A calf that Is des.
tined for the butchers block or for the
breeding herd should be kept in grow
ing condition from the time Of birth
until he goes into the herd as a mature
animal or finds his way into the feed
lot.
An animal that Is stunted during his
growing period will not make satisfac
tory gains In the feed lot, nor Will he
ever be fully developed. 1t is not nee
essary to force the young cattle, but
they should be kept gaining gradually
In this connection 1t Is important t.
use farm grown grains and forage
crops whenever possible. Corn silage
clover and alfalfa hay during winter
and good pasture during the summer
are most excellent for developing young
| cattle,

MATTHEW BENDER is
RECOVERING NICELY

Matthew Bender, of Albany, New
York, who has been guest at Hotel
Clarendon for several weeks, is rapid
" recovering from the effects of Il
carbuncle on the back of his neck,
which had given him serious trouble
for some time Mr.. Bender had been
in an Albany hospital five weeks prior
to coming to Florida, suffering untold
agony, and while he was still scarce
" able to get around, he, in company
with Mrs. Bender, made the journey
to Seabreeze, where they have since
been sojourning at the Clarendon.
Mr.. Bender's condition at the present
time is greatly improved, and while
he does not attempt to try any real
strenuous exercise, he walks and
drives about enjoying the country
and its balmy climate. Mr.. and Mrs.
Bender will remain at the big hotel
for some time yet, and upon leaving
here will stop off at Asheville, N ~,
for two or three weeks, later retu
ting to Albany, their permane at
home.
The Benders are old Clarendon
patrons, having spent several winters
at Seabreeze, even before the fire
destroyed the old building.

LOCAL HOTELS ARE

JUDGING FROM REPORTS MANY
OF THE LARGEST ESTABLISH
MENTS ALONG EAST COAST
ARE NOT FARING WELL.

There seems to be many conflicting
reports concerning the business be-
ing done by the larger hotels along
the East Coast of Florida the present
season. Some of the houses are
said to be doing more than usual, and
others are reported to be not more
than half full, with no real prospects
for improvement. This surely doesn't
apply to Daytona or the peninsula
towns, where many of the largest
hotels along the East Coast are To-
Gated 1t is a fact, and one over
which there is much rejoicing, that
the season of 1914-15 thus far at least,
has been unusually good, and there
is every reason to believe that it will
go down in history as record
breaker when the season finally draws
to close.
/ There is a smile that won't come
off on the faces of the managers at
Hotel Clarendon, due to the influx
of people that have been pouring in
to the big resort ever since the first
of January. The house has been
catering to capacity crowd for two
weeks, and there is yet no evidence
of the returning tourists, which are
usually relied upon to put on the
| finishing touches. When this further
south element does begin to put in
an appearance, it will keep the mana
gers of the big hotels guessing in
attempting to figure out just how they
are going to accommodate the rush.
