Blind Swimmers.

1t has been found that blind swim
mers always swim in straight line,
and this gives them decided adj
vantage, for many experts have been
beaten in races because they deviated
from the shortest distance between
two points. Doctor Campbell of the
College for the Blind at Upper Nor
wood, England, who has made obser-
vations proving the statement just
made, says that those who compete as
fast swimmers ought to practice swim
ming with bandage over their eyes.
SO that they may learn to take a
straight course instinctively.

between the concrete walls under the
ice is filled with cinders, pounded
down Above the cindcrs is slant
ing floor of concrete, then layer of
sawdust foot deep. This makes the
very best foundation for ice in farm
icehouse. There are other methods
of keeping ice in large commercial
storage plants, but what interests the
farmers is a cheap, practical way OF
preserving ice for home use.
There is drainage system to the
icehouse which works in connection
with the concrete floor drains. The
center drain leads into a cement pit
in the dairy room, so that the cold
"trip water from the ice keeps the wa
ter in the pit-tank cold. This pit-tahk
is where the cans of milk are Kept
cold over night.
There is a drain pipe leading away
from the bottom of the cold-water
tank to carry off the surplus water

which reaches nigh enough to mold the

The principle OF keeping Ice on a
farm is little different from the com

stored In the wintertime to sell out in
summer. The farmer usually fills his
own icehouse. He does the work in
the wintertime when help and horses
would otherwise be practically idle.

PROOF OF PROSPERITY
Positive Evidence Given by the Postal
Telegraph Company


A strong evidence of business
growth and reviving prosperity in the
state of Florida is noticed by the fact
that the Postal Telegraph Co. is
spending considerable money in this
section.
A representative of the Star IN an
interview at the Harrington Hall with
District Superintendent George w.
Ribble of that company, from Atlanta,
who spent Monday in the city, en-
route to Tampa in connection with the
Postal's plan for building another en-
tirely new line from Tampa to Jack
sonville through portion of the state
not now touched by that company's
lines, and which portion is developing
very rapidly.
The willingness of the Postal Tele-
graph Company to make such heavy
outlay at time like this when cor
porations generally are holding back
on any new improvements is to be
heartily commended. Investigation on
the part of the Star developed that
Superintendent Ribble promises for
immediate work on this line are cold
facts; the material is already in an
Ocala warehouse, consisting of sew
eral carloads of wires, insulators, bat
teries, instruments and general tele-
graph material, a force of approx
mately 35 men have already strung
the wires from Jacksonville to within
a very few miles of Ocala, and their
arrival is anticipated here by the end
of the present week. The route south
is at present being surveyed and will
be announced later.
Superintendent Ribble began his
career as a regular "Florida cracker"
years ago in little backwoods tele-
graph office; by close attention to bus
mess and hard work he was promoted
from place to place until now he
directs the company's affairs over the
entire states of Georgia and Florida.
Mr.. Ribble said: "While a few peo-
pie consider the railroad stocks as the
best barometer of business conditions,
/ have frequently noticed, while re-
siding in New York that the first
thing member of the New York
Stock Exchange looks at upon his ar
rival at his Office each morning are
the telegraph stocks, they being
nationwide while the railroads are
sectional. I am very glad to be able
to say that our business so far in 1915
shows an increase over the same per-
iod of 1914 when conditions were con-
sidered much better than they are
now.
''The Postal Company has great
confidence in Florida. 1t feels that
while a tremendous growth in busi-
ness and population has taken place
in this state in the past few years,
that in reality, it has not even really
commenced and in view of the charac-
ter of the products of this state being
of such a nature that they demand
prompt marketing, and in view of the
fact that the bulk of that marketing
must be arranged before hand by wire
the state should have a first class
competitive telegraph service.
81 am enthusiastic over Florida, it:
wonderful natural resources, it's wei
kept cities and towns, its good rail
road facilities. 1t is without a doub
natures garden spot, and as to you
climate-well, Webster's doesn't con
tain enough good strong words to d.
it justice"
