BLOW TO WILSON.

Perhaps the most ignifcant-and

stronger than his party, but is even

BEANS PRODUCE WELL
G.. B. Robbins Gets 152 Crates
From One Fifth Acre

One hundred and fifty-two
crates of beans from one-fifth
acre is a good yield.
G. B. Robbins, who is cultivat-
ing beans on a portion OF S. j,
Chadwick s land, got this yield.
Mr.. Robbins says he was told
that beans would not do so well
here, and that he made up his
mind to trf them out, the result
being as stated.
He fortified and worked the
patch on the plan that he had pre-
viously followed in Sumter county
where he gained an invaluable ex,
perience in truck farming.

Whether a bird is beneficial or
injurious depends almost entirely
on what it eats. In the case of
species which are very abundant,
or which feed to some extent on
the crops of the farmer, the ques-
ton of their average diet becomes
one of supreme Importance, and
only by stomach examination can
it be satisfactorily solved. Field
observations are at best but frag-
mentary and inconclusive and lead
to no final results. Birds are Of
ten accused of eating this or that
product of cultivation, when an
examination of the stomachS
shows the accusation to be I'M
founded. Accordingly, the Bio
logical Survey of the United Stat
es Department of Agriculture has
conducted for some years past a
systematic investigation of the
food of those species which are
most common about the farm and
garden.

Former Governor Albert Gill
christ, who is a candidate for SEN
ator Bryan s seat in the Senate,
was also here, but nothing has
yet been seen of Perry Wall, the
gentleman from Hillsborough, who
has also thrown his sombrero in

probability that Governor Park
Trammell will undertake the job
of squaring the circle. So far, it
is a South Florida contest, for
while Senator Bryan is a citizen
of Duval, he is a native of old

that section from which he came

There's a chance here for some
enterprising youngster or old one
to earn a few honest pennies easily
by keeping on the docks bait and
fishing tackle ready for the use of
the visitors who almost daily
come here to fish. Sell the bait
rent the tackle, and get rich. No
taxes, no license to pay, and we
believe that such a business would
yield from five to fifteen dollars a
week. A man who catches a doz-
en- fine mackerel, which is easy to
do, would not grieve over paying
a dollar for his implements.
